In Episode 26 of The EarlyGame Podcast it's time for an open-world extravaganza. We talk about why Evan is weirdly hyped about Horizon: Forbidden West and why Faris is understandably hyped for Elden Ring. Jon is missing again, but his spirit and country is alive in our discussion of the evolution of Assassin's Creed and, in particular, Assassin's Creed: Syndicate. The EarlyGame Podcast is released weekly, each and every Wednesday at 19:00 CEST / 09:00 PST.
