The SIPT gang recover from the holiday by gathering to discuss fall titles like Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, Hyrule Warriors, and Yakuza: Like a Dragon (and Subject floats the suggestion that all Pokémon titles may contain a Groundhog Day-influenced narrative…!? ).

The show closes with a discussion of moments in games that left the crew truly and thoroughly shook.
