Listen Later

Welcome to the first ever episode of the Crossplay Cooperative! Three chaps from New Zealand discuss recent gaming news/trends and take a deeper dive into game concepts, mechanics and topics. It's really important stuff, honestly.


In this episode, we talk about Sony shutting down Bluepoint, Phil Spencer's retirement, discuss several games from Steam's Next Fest and have a chat about extraction shooters. Are they good?  We also look at our Fantasy Critic rankings so far.
