We start with new reports claiming The Witcher 3 is set to receive a brand-new paid DLC in May 2026, which could serve as the official kickoff for The Witcher 4's marketing campaign, currently expected to launch in Q4 2027. We discuss what a return to The Witcher 3 means nearly a decade later and whether this strategy benefits CD Projekt RED. Next, we dive into a newly discovered Sony patent for an AI-powered in-game assistant, designed to help players overcome challenges — or potentially complete sections of games for them. We debate the implications for accessibility, player agency, and the future of game design. We also cover reports that MachineGames is working on Wolfenstein 3, alongside a Rainbow Six Siege–style multiplayer project, as well as claims that StarCraft shooters and Fallout remakes may be in development at Xbox. Plus, we analyze the latest GTA 6 update from Jason Schreier, including why the game is reportedly not content-complete, what that means for its release window, and why PlayStation is said to be the primary platform anchoring Sony's future lineup. To close out the show, we tackle a big industry question: How do we fix the modern video game industry? From budgets and studio size to jobs, AI, leadership, and sustainability, we discuss what needs to change — and what's already working. We also hit Flash News, including PlayStation's new Hyperpop PS5 accessory collection and the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for January, before wrapping up with Whatcha Been Playin'?

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticJoin The Normandy For Additional Bonus Audio And Visual Content For All Things Nme+! Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KIn this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz dives deep into Kirby Air Riders on Nintendo Switch 2. Directed by Masahiro Sakurai, this exclusive sequel to the 2003 GameCube classic launched November 20, 2025, as a complete, non-live-service title with no DLC planned. Post-launch support ends soon after a final balance patch following Version 1.2.0, which adjusted every kart, one rider, and fixed bugs. Sakurai confirmed the team will disband, aiming for lasting balance.Sales show regional contrasts: Japan dominated with #1 retail debut at 195,594 physical copies (Famitsu), strong Week 2 performance, and top eShop rankings fueled by Kirby loyalty and heavy marketing. US digital charts placed it high alongside major titles, reflecting digital strength. UK/Europe lagged at #12 boxed launch, impacted by $70 pricing, large download, crowded window, and spin-off positioning.Early global estimates exceed 300,000 units, projecting 2-4 million lifetime—surpassing the original's 1.35 million. Featuring 20+ riders/machines, 18 tracks, modes like City Trial (16-player online), Road Trip roguelike, and 750 challenges, it earned solid reviews (Metacritic 78, user 9.0) for depth and multiplayer. Analytic Dreamz explores market signals for Switch 2 spin-offs.

In this episode of Pixelated Playgrounds, Bryan, Josh, and Clint finally arrive in Pharloom and dive deep into Hollow Knight: Silksong. We all fell in love with Hollow Knight when it launched in 2017 and even covered it on the show back in 2019, making Silksong a long-anticipated return. Team Cherry—Ari Gibson, William Pellen, and Jack Vine—have come a long way since the original Kickstarter, and Silksong's journey from planned DLC to full sequel reflects a uniquely protracted and unconventional development cycle. Just as notable is the team's decision to remain intentionally small, preserving creative control, efficiency, and passion while collaborating with key contributors like composer Christopher Larkin to elevate the experience.Silksong represents a major shift from its predecessor, most notably through Hornet, a fully voiced and evolving protagonist whose presence reshapes both narrative and gameplay. The game emphasizes speed, verticality, and tool-driven combat, with Pharloom's design flipping Hollow Knight's downward descent into a constant upward climb. We dig into the game's layered storytelling—Hornet's personal arc, the history of Pharloom and its people, and the larger cosmic forces at play—alongside its thematic focus on song, memory, and organized religion. Along the way, we debate difficulty, movement quirks, crest builds, boss design, and the shard system for tools. We also discuss Silksong's ambitious three-act structure, multiple endings, and whether it not only lives up to the original Hollow Knight. So join us as we close out the year exploring Team Cherry's world of bugs, beasts, beauty, and bosses.Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Smooth as SilkJosh - Flight in FightClint - Solid Send Off

This week on The Game Deflators Podcast, John and Ryan dive into a packed lineup of gaming chatter, industry trends, and a retro review that hits all the right notes. They kick things off with their latest game pickups and what's been dominating their playtime, setting the stage for a broader look at how modern gaming continues to evolve. From convoluted pre‑order bonuses to the growing mess of fragmented game editions, the duo breaks down why these trends are frustrating players and reshaping expectations. The conversation then shifts to the serious legal battles currently facing major video game companies. John and Ryan explore how these lawsuits raise tough questions about accountability, addiction, and the responsibilities developers have toward their audiences. On a more uplifting note, the hosts spotlight Sandfall Interactive's new DLC for Clare Obscure Expedition 33, praising its generous free content and thoughtful difficulty adjustments. They also take time to discuss AI's expanding role in game development sparks a lively debate between the two — where it helps, where it hurts, and why opinions across the industry are so divided. To wrap things up, John and Ryan revisit Lumines on the PSP for this week's retro review, digging into why this rhythm‑puzzle classic still shines years later. 00:00 Introduction to the Game Inflators Podcast 01:24 Recent Game Pickups and Holiday Gaming 05:19 Current Games and Gameplay Experiences 23:00 Trends to End in 2026 33:03 News of the Week and Closing Thoughts 33:42 The Impact of Video Games on Children 46:14 The Role of AI in Game Development 52:10 Game Difficulty and Player Experience 01:05:22 Luminous Puzzle Fusion: A Classic Review Want more Game Deflators content?

Welcome to the DSTE Christmas Spectacular!! There's no Joe or Jono this week so Sam takes over hosting duties and is joined by JT and Ste to talk all things games, TV, and film + books this week. We have a Christmassy catch up before JT's new section Joe-Schmo Rage Baiting'! We also take a quick look at the new Street Fighter film trailer, the 2026 reboot directed by Kitao Sakurai and starring Noah Centineo as Ken and Andrew Koji as Ryu. Ste gives his obligatory World of Tanks update, the enduring armoured warfare MMO, and talks with JT about playing The Outer Worlds 2. This much-anticipated sci-fi RPG sequel from Obsidian Entertainment just launched this October, taking players to the new star system of Arcadia. JT played the new Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 game as we discuss the blatant rinse and repeat nature of COD (yet it's still fun) and the campaign (or lack of) vs. online gameplay. The pod has an in depth discussion around how games are priced and marketed around free game models with season pass/DLC. We then drop into Sam's Steam Deck Corner, where he's revisiting Trials Evolution, the 2012 physics-based racer from RedLynx. Next, we open Ste's Book Club to discuss Frank Herbert's 1965 sci-fi epic Dune and a Haruki Murakami marathon covering the melancholic Norwegian Wood (1987), the metaphysical Kafka on the Shore (2002), and the dystopian epic 1Q84 (2009). JT sits us down to tell us all about The Chair Company, the new HBO comedy-thriller from Tim Robinson about a man who uncovers a corporate conspiracy after his chair collapses during a presentation. We also test our Duolingo language skills by watching foreign TV shows: Schlag Den Star, the long-running German celebrity competition; Deutschland 83, the stylish 2015 Cold War spy thriller; and One Cut of the Dead, the ingenious 2017 Japanese meta-zombie film by Shin'ichirō Ueda. Sam covers The Beast In Me, the new Netflix psychological thriller starring Claire Danes and Matthew Rhys, and we chat about the massive Netflix vs. Paramount bids for Warner Bros. Discovery, as the streaming giants fight over the future of HBO and the DC Universe. The feature film this week that is unquestionable a Christmas Film - Jingle All The Way, the 1996 holiday classic starring Arnold Schwarzenegger on a desperate quest for a Turbo-Man action figure.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if Baldur's Gate 3 romance options escaped into your tabletop rules? Today, we dive into Astarion's Book of Hungers, where vampires are sexy, feats are thirsty, and WotC's DLC pricing… is definitely giving "gaslight, gatekeep, vampire spawn." The team reviews the digital-only D&D supplement Astarion's Book of Hungers, a Baldur's Gate-themed 32-page add-on focused on vampires, Dhampir characters, feats, and mini-adventures, tied to Faerûn but clearly intended as DLC-style tabletop content. Highlights Dhampir species updated, but weakened from 2014 (loss of Deathless Nature, bite now unarmed strike). New backgrounds tied to vampire themes (Devotee, Survivor, Carouser) with strong roleplay hooks. Feat quality varies from flavorful to "why is this here" (looking at you, Bomber). Epic boons are thematically fun but situational. Bestiary mostly devils + vampire variants (Infernalist, Wardens). Two adventures, but they're basically the same fight twice set in Rat's Run Tavern. Show Notes In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the crew reviews Astarion's Book of Hungers, the digital-only supplement featuring the updated Dhampir species, vampire-flavored feats, new backgrounds, devil monsters, and two short adventures centered around the Rat's Run Tavern in Baldur's Gate. The hosts analyze the design changes, compare Dhampir options between the 2014 and 2024 rules, evaluate feat quality, and critique the DLC-like release strategy. They share lore details about Astarion, his abusive sire Kassador, and how Baldur's Gate 3 influenced this supplement's tone and art direction. Listeners get practical advice on when the rules matter, when the flavor shines, and whether this $15 digital release actually delivers value, or whether players are better off saving their money for bigger releases. Key Takeaways Dhampir changes are mechanical changes; same flavor, less abusable. New feats range from fun to unoptimized; several needed Unearthed Arcana playtesting. Bestiary is small but flavorful with devil-focused lore. Adventures feel duplicated and minimal. The value proposition feels overpriced for what's delivered. Strong warnings that this sets an unwelcome D&D DLC precedent.
