This Week on Pure Dead Gaming

Another week, another dose of gaming chat, questionable opinions, and the usual nonsense from Craig and Jess — with Andy still on honeymoon (despite promising he’d be back).

In the news, the team covers The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past, the LEGO Skylines leak, Unreal Engine 6 powering the next era of Rocket League, and the wave of football‑themed games popping up ahead of the World Cup — including Soccer Kid’s nostalgic return and eFootball Kick‑Off! joining the lineup.

WE ARE XBOX! Which is nice to hear, we couldn’t remember which Pure Dead spinoff we were for a while. Now that regular recording has resumed after Ben’s questionable cruise “Bestiality around the Bahamas” has concluded; we were able to welcome Modern Escapism’s Stig to the studio.  We have a couple of showcases, Asha Sharma’s ten commandments and an onslaught of games added to the recently price reduced Game Pass. We also talk about Fanta, revamped achievements and wanting to beat up IGN hosts.

Games played this month include Replaced, Mouse P.I. For Hire, Disco Elysium, Pragmata, MIO: Memories in Orbit, Baldur’s Gate 3, Dead as Disco, Resident Evil Requiem, Persona 5 and Sanbone continues to trudge through Crimson Desert. 

As always, thanks for listening!
