And is there any end to this battle royale mania? All this and much more on this week's Infinite Respawn Podcast!

Baka is absent this week but that doesn't mean there's a shortage of craziness on the show! Grif had to restart Far Cry 5. Both she and Chicken have started Detroit Become Human. Which one of them cried while playing? Chicken's also been working his way through Mordor in Shadow of War. Will any of these orcs every be his friend?

Chicken has a new mic so please bear with our test run of this new gear! As far as games go, Chicken and Baka have been playing Sea of Thieves, of course. In addition to SoT, they also tried out Darwin Project, a Fortnite-eque free to play game on Steam. It's definitely been an experience, that's for sure. Grif is SO tired of being drugged and abducted in Far Cry 5! This is why she can't be nice to people any more.

The crew is running a little short on chatter about games they've played recently. Mostly because things have just been crazy for everyone lately! One of the few things everyone did get to try out was Deep Rock Galactic. Basically, it's dwarves and awesomeness. The big topic this week is Fortnite and its addictive nature. Is it too addictive? Are parents being to lazy? Is there a better way to monitor how much time people spend on a game? Do we need that kind of monitoring? Things get pretty lively as the discussion goes on. The new Red Dead Redemption trailer definitely caught some eyes this week. One of the endings of Life is Strange is being expanded via a comic. And Grif is still having a crazy time playing Far Cry 5, which you can watch on her YouTube channel! (Link below!)

Oak has a big surprise for everyone this week! It's a little hard to pay attention after the surprise, but the show must go on! Grif explains why not to play Overwatch with Baka. Baka is looking for new gear for his fighting games even though no one will play them with him. And Chicken, of course, has plenty of salty Sea of Thieves stories. In the news: Dark Souls for Switch is delayed. CoD is cutting campaigns. Halo's multiplayer is on PC (sort of). Loot boxes are being considered gambling in some countries now. And the big debate this week is whether or not "battle royale" is just a game mode or a whole game itself and why every dev now feels the need to include it. All this and much more on this week's Infinite Respawn Podcast!

This week the crew tried out a new battle royale game: Radical Heights! Is it as good as PUBG and Fortnite? Of course there's more Sea of Thieves stories to go around. The seas are salty and so are these poor virtual sailors. Overwatch's latest even, Retribution, is in full swing with new skins, emotes, and a game mode but not everything is working as intended.

This week everyone's still getting their pirate on in Sea of Thieves. We're sure you're totally surprised... Also, don't trust Grif or Oak to ever be your hero.
