In this week’s episode of The Nerd Stash Show, we follow up on the latest from the Activision Blizzard lawsuit and the recent employee walkout.

Also on the show, we talk about Kena: Bridge of Spirits facing a month delay, Splitgate’s popularity, Back 4 Blood open beta details, and a new potential “dream team” video game studio. 

As always, you can check out timestamps for every major topic down below. If you want to learn more about any of the topics we talked about, we’ll also provide sources for that as well.
