Fred finally wrapped up Metro Awakening and is making serious progress in F.I.S.T., while Jake is still deep into Kingdom Come: Deliverance and absolutely loving Resident Evil 4 VR2.

In the news, there’s a big PSVR2 sale on the PlayStation Store with deep discounts on Tetris Effect (75% off), Resident Evil Village (60% off), and more. Meanwhile, EA DICE announced Battlefield Labs, a new way for players to help shape the next Battlefield game through hands-on testing.

On the shutdown front, MultiVersus is coming to an end after a bumpy relaunch, and The Division 2 is also seeing its support wind down after five years. In stranger news, Assassin’s Creed Shadows story details have reportedly leaked through an adult site, so if you’re invested in the game, be careful what you search for online.

We also want to take a moment to acknowledge the passing of Wayne June, whose unmistakable voice brought so much depth and atmosphere to Darkest Dungeon and other projects. His work was truly one of a kind, and his loss is deeply felt in the gaming community.

Sony says the classic 30th Anniversary PlayStation themes will return in the future, and Space Marine 2 will be getting more PvE and PvP maps after some player backlash over post-launch content. In leadership news, Hermen Hulst is no longer PlayStation’s co-CEO—Hideaki Nishino now holds the role alone. Meanwhile, Beyond: Two Souls is getting a TV series, produced by Elliot Page’s company.

We also take a look at this week’s new releases, including Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Momodora: Moonlit Farewell, and Luck Be a Landlord.

Plenty to discuss—let’s get into it!

PS This is Awesome: Episode 362 – "There's a Freeze Up"

It’s cold outside, but the gaming conversations are heating up! Fred finally finished Final Fantasy XVI (congrats!) and has started F.I.S.T. Meanwhile, Jake is halfway through The Messenger but needed a break from a tough battle, so he’s been diving back into the medieval world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance over the past few days.

In the news, Ninja Gaiden 4 is reportedly 80% complete and set to launch this year on PS5! This isn’t to be confused with Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, which is a spiritual successor to the classic NES games. Speaking of big franchises, PS Productions is working on a Resident Evil reboot, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows dropped a new two-minute story trailer for PS5.

We also saw some exciting updates from Doom The Dark Ages, which just had a solid gameplay showcase, and Clair Obscur has an official release date of April 24, 2025. Fans of retro games, rejoice—Super Technos World is coming in April, bringing back Super Dodgeball nostalgia and more classic arcade fun!

For Darkest Dungeon II fans, there’s a new DLC titled Inhuman Bondage on the horizon, adding more enemies and the Abomination class, although console players will have to wait for a release date. However, the surprise Kingdoms DLC is available today and adds a brand-new game mode for fans to explore.

Finally, the big debate: could GTA6 really cost $100? Some rumors suggest it might, and we discuss whether this price point is justified.

PS This is Awesome: Episode 361

Fred is almost finished with Final Fantasy XVI, while Jake just wrapped up Trepang 2! Now he’s on the hunt for his next big AAA adventure. If you have suggestions, let him know!

In this episode, we’re diving into The Future of PlayStation. We reflect on how Sony has shaped the gaming landscape over the years, from introducing 3D graphics and CD-quality sound in 1994 to championing indie developers and story-driven single-player games. We explore key innovations like the DualShock controller, Blu-ray integration, and the rise of online services with the PS4.

As for the future, what’s next for PlayStation? Cloud gaming is gaining ground, but with live service games faltering, Sony might need to rethink its strategy. Could we see a move toward Early Access, more PC integration, or a resurgence of multiplayer modes in single-player games? Plus, we speculate about which franchises and studios—like Naughty Dog and Uncharted—should lead the charge.

In news, the rumored State of Play in February has us wondering what surprises are in store. Meanwhile, Arken Age is out now on PSVR2, earning high praise for its combat despite some story critiques. The Until Dawn movie just dropped its first trailer, and it looks promising! On a bittersweet note, Sony canceled Bluepoint’s live-service God of War project and Bend Studio’s new title, but both studios remain intact.

Finally, PlayStation Blog shared its top 10 platformers available on PS Plus, including classics like Jak and Daxter, Ape Escape, and Celeste. There’s a lot to unpack, so hit play and join us for the conversation!

PS This is Awesome: Episode 360

Fred didn’t make it back to Metro Awakening—talking about Final Fantasy XVI last week gave him the itch to finally finish it, and now he’s almost through. Meanwhile, Jake finally rolled credits on Metaphor: Refantazio! He gave MediEvil a shot, but it didn’t really click. However, he picked up Resident Evil 4 Remake, The Messenger, and Trepang 2—so plenty to dive into next.

We’re also looking at what’s coming up, with new releases like Arken Age, DreadOut: Remastered Collection, and Dynasty Warriors Origins dropping this week.

In news, a trademark filing hints at a possible Ecco the Dolphin revival—whether that excites or terrifies you depends on how you feel about ‘90s underwater adventures. Meanwhile, PowerWash Simulator VR has been put on hold, which is a bummer for those hoping to deep-clean in first-person. Kojima is getting introspective, reflecting on his future as a creator while Death Stranding 2 enters a crucial development phase. Speaking of delays, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is now set for March 2025, but a leaked DLC titled Claws of Awaji suggests Ubisoft has big post-launch plans.

Sony is experimenting with “smell tech” for gaming—because apparently, immersion isn’t complete until you can sniff the battlefield. More excitingly, Helldivers is getting a movie adaptation, something we speculated on ages ago. And finally, The Last of Us Season 2 is hitting in April… should we dust off our old Last of Us podcast?

It’s a packed episode—let’s get into it!

PS This is Awesome: Episode 359

Fred finally conquered Darkest Dungeon 2 and is diving back into Metro Awakening, while Jake is still deep in Metaphor: Refantazio. No new games for him this week—but big plans for next year.

With 2025 just around the corner, we’re setting some New Year's Gaming Resolutions! Fred is determined to finally beat Final Fantasy XVI, be more thorough with his playthroughs, and resist buying games just because they’re on sale. He also wants to pick up more games at launch instead of waiting. Meanwhile, Jake wants to make better use of his PSVR2, finish Half-Life: Alyx, and dive into more indie games. He also plans to play Gran Turismo, Vertigo, and Metro Awakening—all in VR—plus Resident Evil 4 Remake for the full horror experience. On top of that, he’s challenging himself to try more games without feeling the need to finish every single one.

In news, PlayStation Plus Essentials for January have been announced, featuring Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered. Sony is reassuring gamers that home consoles aren’t going anywhere, despite industry shifts. Meanwhile, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is still on track for 2025, though Kojima Productions is feeling the effects of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strikes. PlayStation’s focus on live service games is growing, with Helldivers 2 proving to be a big success.

It’s a new year, new games, and new goals—let’s talk about it all!

PS This is Awesome: Episode 358

Fred’s been juggling G.I. Joe: Wrath of Cobra, Darkest Dungeon 2, and nearing the finish line in Metro Awakening, while Jake took a nostalgic dive back into Sound Shapes on the PS Vita.

This episode, we’re wrapping up the year with our 2024 Games of the Year picks! Fred’s favorites include the chaotic brilliance of Helldivers 2, the brutal challenge of Darkest Dungeon 2, and the charm of Astrobot. Space Marine 2, Resident Evil 4 in VR, Metro Awakening, and the atmospheric Dead Space Remake also made his list. Jake’s lineup features the epic Final Fantasy Rebirth, the intriguing Animal Well, the highly anticipated Stellar Blade, and the imaginative Metaphor: Refantazio.

Looking ahead to 2025, we’re hyped for titles like Ghost of Yotei, Little Nightmares III, and Death Stranding 2. Split Fiction, Doom: The Dark Ages, and The Outerworlds 2 have our attention as well. Honorable mentions? Mafia: The Old Country, Hell is Us, Crimson Desert, Lunar Remastered Collection, and Metal Gear Solid Delta.

It’s been an incredible year for gaming, and next year’s lineup is already looking stacked. Tune in as we break it all down!

Fred’s nearing the end of Metro Awakening (Chapter 10!) and wrapping up his journey with Darkest Dungeon 2, finally tackling the last confession. Jake? He’s still deep into Indiana Jones and the Great Circle—on Game Pass, naturally.

This week, we’re diving into our PlayStation Wrapped for 2024! Fred and Jake both played 35 games this year, with Fred’s journey starting with Final Fantasy XVI and ending with Darkest Dungeon 2. His top games include 90 hours in Darkest Dungeon 2, 39 hours in Helldivers 2, and 34 hours in FFXVI. Jake’s list is, well, under wraps for now, but we know his 512 hours of gaming outpaced Fred’s 285.

Fred’s role-playing gaming style saw him snag 263 trophies this year, with A Fine Hound from FFXVI as his first and The Last Confession trophy in DD2 closing out the year. No Platinums for Fred, but 8 Golds aren’t too shabby.

In the news, CD Projekt Red confirmed that Ciri will take center stage in The Witcher 4, though specifics about platform support remain under wraps. Mark Cerny hinted at a continued partnership with AMD for the PS6, and Amazon’s Secret Level series has been renewed for a second season.

It’s a look back at an incredible year in gaming—join us for the full breakdown!

PS This is Awesome: Episode 356

Fred’s nearing the end of Metro Awakening (now on Chapter 10), revisiting TLOU Part II on PS5, and still deep into Darkest Dungeon 2. Meanwhile, Jake’s checking out Indiana Jones and the Great Circle—but on Game Pass (we forgive him).

This week’s show is all about The Game Awards 2024, and there’s plenty to unpack! Astro Bot took home Game of the Year, which feels like a well-deserved win. Naughty Dog dropped jaws with Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, and Helldivers 2 got a big update—“Omens of Tyranny”—complete with a DualSense tie-in and a fresh surge in player numbers.

We also saw trailers for some massive games: The Witcher 4, Elden Ring: Nightreign (a co-op spinoff coming in 2025), and Outer Worlds 2 (confirmed for PS5!). Mafia: The Old Country takes us to Sicily in the 1900s, Midnight Murder Club brings suspenseful 6-player shooter vibes, and Hazelight’s Split Fiction blends co-op sci-fi and fantasy in a mind-bending way. Capcom surprised us with Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is officially happening.

There was even a soccer game, Rematch, from the studio behind Sifu—because why not? And Dispatch, a narrative-driven game starring Aaron Paul, looks like a 2025 sleeper hit. Oh, and Hideo Kojima’s back with rumors swirling about Gas Snake. Classic Kojima.

It’s a jam-packed breakdown of all the highlights, so grab a seat, and let’s dive into everything Game Awards!

We’ve also put together a PlayStation gift guide just in time for the holidays. From consoles to accessories, PS Plus subscriptions, and even merch, we share plenty of ideas to make the gamers in your life smile—without breaking the bank.

In other news, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is getting fantastic early buzz, though PS5 players will have to wait a bit. We also speculate on what surprises might be in store at the Game Awards next week and share some thoughts on Black Ops 6 multiplayer going free for a week. Plus, Sony’s hinting at hand tracking for PSVR2, and there’s a free Gran Turismo 7 game that’s definitely worth checking out. Ubisoft, on the other hand, is shuttering XDefiant and processing refunds—a tough end for the game and its development team.
