This week I've been playing a bunch of games including the new third-person tactical shooter called Rogue Company, Carrion where you're a monster trying to escape a lab, Neversong which is an emotional Metroidvania and I'm looking forward to Marvel's Avengers as we have the beta coming up very soon.

This week I've been speculating and predicting what we're going to get in the upcoming Xbox Series X Showcase and I've been playing Whispers of a Machine, an excellent point and click adventure game. I was also very lucky to sit down with the lead voice-over artist in the game, Ivy Dupler and we got stuck into the process for VO in videos games, it's a great conversation so look forward to that later in the episode.

This week I've been playing Hyper Scape, a brand new battle royale from Ubisoft which was released into closed beta on Thursday. We've also got some more, exciting news and gameplay from CD Projekt Red about Cyberpunk 2077, so I'll go into reasons why I've added that to my watch list. I also sat down with Marina from Cowleyfornia Studios and we discussed the development on their upcoming narrative adventure game set in Oxford and Bornio called Sarawak, so stay tuned for that.
