Despite any gripes with Xbox this year, there's no denying that 2026 presents a fun challenge for them. Fable, Forza Horizon 6, Halo, and Gears Of War E-Day are all slated to drop next year. However, a new wrinkle has been introduced in the ambitious RPG, Clockwork Revolution, which hails from inXile Entertainment. After a seven minute trailer from this summer's showcase, we felt this thing had to be ready to go soon. Sadly, the RPG titan tempered our expectations when the trailer ended with the familiar statement from its initial reveal: "Coming in due time." Well, if a LinkedIn profile is to be believed, Clockwork Revolution may join the fray of a busy year for the "biggest publisher in gaming." Naturally, we hone in on GTA 6 which creates a splash radius so large that every publisher will be avoiding them for the fall. How Xbox navigates this will be interesting as we have yet to consider overdue titles like State Of Decay 3 and third party deals. Buckle up, friends! It's going to be a wild ride.

Eidos-Montreal is laying off more staff unfortunately, while indie developer Yacht Club Games says their next game needs to be a hit or else they may be in danger themselves. Ubisoft is standing by a remake of Splinter Cell while they're apparently posting new job listings for Beyond Good and Evil 2. #metroid #eidos #yachtclubgames #ubisoft #splintercell #bge2 #videogames #allyoucangeek #aycg #podcast

One of the world's biggest online gaming sites, Roblox, is in the courts. The cases involve the alleged sexual exploitation of a minor, online harassment, and business practices that lead to addiction.That last charge, involving addiction, is connected to an aspect of online gaming that's passing mostly under the radar. The “gamblification” of games for children. It's a charge that's been levelled at not just Roblox but a number of other high profile companies from Microsoft to Ubisoft. Tricks of the trade from casinos have made their way into the gaming world.Professor Sarah Grimes, professor of communication studies at McGill, spends her time researching how kids, particularly kids in elementary school, interact with tech. How it harms, how it helps, how they use it to communicate with each other, and how it shapes their place in the world. She's here to talk about what it means when kid's games turn into gambling.Host: Bruce ThorsonCredits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), max collins (Director of Audio), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Featured Guest: Sarah GrimesFact checking by Julian AbrahamAdditional music by Audio NetworkMore information:https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonwosborne/2023/05/25/how-loot-boxes-in-childrens-video-games-encourage-gambling/https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/roblox-faces-bc-lawsuit-by-12-year-old-addicted-to-websitehttps://www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/article/quebec-lawsuit-alleges-video-games-are-gathering-childrens-personal-data/Sponsors: CAMH: CAMH is building better mental health care for everyone to ensure no one is left behind.

One of the most profoundly influential periods in history is the 5th century BCE, when when a collection of great minds in Ancient Greece formed the foundations of Western philosophy, medicine and history itself. How did ancient doctors heal the sick? How did historians share their research with a society that didn't read? What influence did female intellectuals have on the Fathers of Philosophy?Matt Lewis presents the expertise of Prof Michael Griffin, Prof Helen King and Justin Marozzi about Socrates, Hippocrates and Herodotus - all of whom are brought to life in Assassin's Creed Odyssey for players to get a taste of what it might have been like to walk alongside these remarkable people in their daily lives.

Ubisoft is facing severe backlash for its recent AC Shadows limited time collab with Attack on Titan. Not only does it not make sense in-universe, it also isn't done well (an understatement) and it's just a crummy commercial for even MORE paid DLC.To say gamers are p*ssed and disappointed is an understatement.Watch this podcast episode on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.CLOWNFISH TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary podcast that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer's point of view.

We kick things off with evidence that Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is heading to PC far sooner than expected. A new ESRB rating has surfaced for the PC version—listing Sony Interactive Entertainment as the publisher—strongly suggesting a rapid turnaround similar to the first game's sub-one-year PC launch. With Kojima Productions expanding the franchise into animated films, A24 partnerships, and Disney+ series, the Death Stranding universe is entering its biggest era yet. Next, a 10-minute leak of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Remake has spilled online, showing early gameplay, mocap sessions, Farah's redesigned character concepts, and confirmation of two new locations built from the ground up. Ubisoft has been issuing copyright strikes, validating the footage's authenticity. Quality looks early-alpha, but it's the clearest look yet at the long-delayed remake's evolution. We then turn to huge internal rumblings at Bungie: credible leaks point to Destiny 3 being in extremely early development, reportedly positioned as a major tentpole release for the PS6 generation. This comes as Destiny 2 struggles with engagement, follows a $200 million write-down from Sony, and Marathon continues through testing before launch. With Destiny fatigue setting in, Bungie is under immense pressure to deliver a franchise reset. FLASH NEWS breaks down the rapid-fire updates you need to know: • Cyberpunk 2077 hits a massive 35 million units sold • A Far Cry TV series is officially in the works with Noah Hawley attached • PlayStation Plus December lineup revealed: LEGO Horizon Adventures, Killing Floor 3, The Outlast Trials, and Synduality Echo of Ada If you're here for PlayStation insights, industry leaks, and deep-dive coverage of the biggest stories in gaming, this episode has everything.
Happy Thanksgiving week! Just a few major stories to break down this week. FarCry is headed to television on FX with Rob Mac staring, which is the right type of chaos that show needs. Wicked went off to see the wizard with a big box office take, and it might not be, for good. Plus Rush Hour 4 is happening, and the reason why is pretty unusual. That and more on this weeks episode.

In deze gaming vodcast praten twee presentatoren van Gamekings over het laatste nieuws uit de wereld die videogames heet. Altijd vergezeld van een stevige mening. We blijven immers Gamekings.

Bijvoorbeeld over het nieuws dat Ubisoft mensen zoekt om aan Beyond Good & Evil 2 te gaan werken. Een game die in 2008 werd aangekondigd en nog steeds verre van klaar is. Ook praten de twee over Cyberpunk 2077 dat sinds deze week beter verkocht heeft dan The Witcher 3. En dat ondanks de behoorlijk valse start. Deze topics en meer zie en hoor je voorbij komen in de Gamekings Daily van donderdag 27 november 2025.Beyond Good & Evil 2 bestaat nog steeds, echt waar…Andere onderwerpen in deze editie betreffen het feit dat GTA 5 gewoon meedoet aan de Steam Awards 2025 en de aankondiging dat er door Bungie wordt gewerkt aan Destiny 3.

PlayStation has had an interesting year, where its smaller output in terms of first-party releases has not hurt it at all in terms of console sales. The gaming giant has made several future-facing announcements, one of which includes the existence of PlayStation 6 not that far down the line. Sean and Marc look into PlayStation's year from its games to its other media endeavors and what things look like heading into the looming 2026. An interesting take from Strauss Zelnick that we are headed to a PC future may mean that Xbox is right? But will it be the leader on that end? As two different anecdotal reports state that the recently announced Steam Machine may not be as price-friendly as many were hoping it would be. Could it be compounded by this ongoing memory shortage? Also, Xbox had its Partner Preview event, which included an interesting list of games. Not to mention, its weird announcement of Xbox Crocs that came out today as well. Marc has spent some time with Once Upon a Katamari, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is down sales-wise, while Battlefield 6 and Arc Raiders are booming in its stead. All of this and more on this edition of Video Games 2 the MAX!

Assassin's Creed Mirage: Valley of Memory takes our hero Basim ibn Ishaq from the glory of Baghdad in the Abbasid era to the remote oasis at Al-Ula. There, he discovers mysteries hidden in the mountains and ancient dwellings of civilisations that fell long ago.Even though the oasis at AlUla has provided sustenance to people living there throughout history, that doesn't entirely explain why so many civilisations wanted to rule it. Instead, the answer may lie in its position on the trade routes that carried spices and incense from Arabia to the rest of the world. Where did the Incense Route travel to and from? How did it influence life in Al-Ula? And what relevance does the Route have to today's spice trade?To answer these questions, Matt Lewis is joined by Dr Sterenn Le Maguer., whose expertise in Islamic archaeology, trade and pilgrimage routes in Arabia makes her the perfect person to explore the Incense Route.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit.

As was originally reported, Xbox brought out a Partner Preview in November. It was chockful of everything strange like a co-op alien shop simulator or a thuggish rabbit beating up baddies to more traditional first person horror titles. The catch was that every game we saw throughout was a Play Anywhere title, a program that many of Xbox's players still yearn for the platform to leverage more. All in all, the Dukes enjoyed the show, especially given it dropped ahead of the biggest show of the year in the Game Awards where announcements are typically prioritized. Beyond that, we dive deep into the Valve rumor mill. Half Life 3 is everywhere! Is it finally happening and are the Dukes believers? We get into that plus updated thoughts on the Steam Machine now that we've had some time to digest the triple-whammy Valve hit us with last week.

As a note, well…two notes, we won't be doing a show next week and will return with a new episode the first Saturday in December. Secondly, there's a point in the video portion of the show where I forgot to change the screen. Probably more entertaining really. There actually was a decent amount of news worth talking about and should still be when we return in two weeks, but for this one, we just run down the current deals to be had and what to watch out for during the Black Friday sales. If I buy anything or not it's always my favorite time of year to see some good discounts. Some are better than others and some years are better than others. As an overall assessment of this year’s deals – we've had better. Much better. That isn't to say it's all at a loss here, but there's been better and bigger discounts on far more items in the past than we're seeing this year. Trust me, I know. I've been doing this whole thing back when you physically had to line up outside a store for the sales. As is the case with this time of year, all of us at In-Game Chat (yeah, I know, it's like just two of us at this point) are exceptionally thankful for every single one of you reading this and listening/watching the show. Be it live or after the fact. We're here because of you and we cannot tell you how much it means to know you're out there supporting us. We hope you have a fantastic holiday season and we'll see you on December 6th. Ubisoft, you just got a massive truck load of money from Tencent. You WON'T make another Splinter Cell, but you really should. It has been 4,479 days since a new Splinter Cell game (non-animated series or guest spot in another game franchise, remake, BBC radio drama, or VR exclusive) was released. Also, there's been 4,787 job losses in the gaming industry since January 1, 2025.
Pinball: We discuss Spooky Pinball's release of Beetlejuice. Video Games: We talk about impacts of the global RAM shortage, follow-up on Rockstar's terminations, news about Krafton going A.I.-first, Ubisoft having great (but delayed) financials, some of the Game Award nominations, and Valve getting ready to drop some new hardware.

By all accounts, this should have been a big year for gaming, but recent releases such as Assassin's Creed Shadows, Ghost of Yotei, and Outer Worlds 2 are not selling as well as developers (and shareholders) perhaps hoped. We discuss why they might be underperforming along with Ubisoft's potential pending destruction, a Eurogamer reviewer who admitted to regretting giving Dragon Age: The Veilguard such a high score, the Steam Machine and what that means for Xbox, and more!
Amazon Game Studios laying off yet another wave, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 trying to resurrect momentum, Valve teasing a new Steam Machine while Xbox continues to lose ground, and Ubisoft wandering into yet another strategic fog. We also break down EA's latest moves, Valve's expanding China play, and why Eastern games keep outperforming Western studios on both quality and velocity.Plus: Zelda goes live action, cozy games quietly become a cultural force, and the console-vs-PC debate refuses to die.

If major third party games are already rolling out, who is next to join the lineup?In tonight's episode of the Nintendo PowerCast we look at what this stealth drop means for third party support on Switch 2, which publishers are most likely to show up, and what games would make the biggest impact.

Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticJoin The Normandy For Additional Bonus Audio And Visual Content For All Things Nme+! Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KJoin Analytic Dreamz as he unpacks DISPATCH, the breakout 2025 episodic superhero comedy that sold over 1 million copies in its first 10 days and instantly became a GOTY contender. Developed by AdHoc Studio (ex-Telltale and Ubisoft talent), this anime-styled interactive series follows depowered hero Robert “Mecha Man” Robertson III (Aaron Paul) running the Superhero Dispatch Network in an alternate LA, assigning reformed villains to crises via real-time strategy dispatching and high-stakes hacking minigames.After a brutal 7-year development filled with COVID shutdowns, layoffs, skipped paychecks, and a near-death collapse, Critical Role Productions swooped in mid-2025 to fund Season 1, merch, comics, and future Exandria projects. Launched October 22, 2025 across PC (Steam) and PS5 with weekly two-episode drops, the complete 8-episode season wrapped November 12. Priced at $29.99 (Deluxe with artbook + comics), it peaked at 131K concurrent players, hit Steam global #1, and smashed its 3-year “bull case” sales goal in just three months.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the innovative AFK-able dispatch system, branching dialogue, hero synergies and rivalries, the star-packed voice cast (Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham, Jacksepticeye, MoistCr1TiKaL, Alanah Pearce, Yung Gravy + Matthew Mercer as Shroud), stunning pre-rendered animation by Igloo Studio, 19 accessibility options, and why the “interactive TV” pacing feels like peak Arcane meets The Boys.Despite minor launch bugs (quickly patched) and criticisms around episode length and illusion-of-choice moments, DISPATCH earned 89–90 Metacritic, 97% Steam positive (50K+ reviews), and universal praise for writing, emotional depth, comedy, and revitalizing the Telltale episodic formula. Community hype, influencer cast virality, and Critical Role crossover fueled massive weekly discourse and “Invisigal cleared” memes.With developers openly teasing Season 2 and Aaron Paul leaving the door “definitely ajar,” Analytic Dreamz analyzes if DISPATCH just saved and redefined narrative gaming in 2025.

PlayStation 5 has officially turned five, giving us much to reflect upon. Has the console lived up to its potential, left folks disappointed, or fallen somewhere in between? We get into that -- alongside new Sony financials that paint an admittedly rosy picture -- before getting into the meat of our show. Two new Sony-aligned games have been revealed, but they've left many potential players puzzled, as neither offering is actually on PlayStation hardware. For starters, NCSoft's long-rumored Horizon MMO is real. It's called Steel Frontiers and it actually looks really nice. But it's only on PC and mobile. Meanwhile, a new Ratchet & Clank game has also been showcased, an online arena shooter called Ranger Rumble. But it too eschews PS5 and PS4, instead going straight to mobile platforms only. What gives? Why does Sony seem half-in on these off-platform initiatives, all the while neglecting their core audience that could give these respective titles the boost they need? Is it time for them to break old habits and embrace a more cogent multiplatform direction that centers PlayStation first and foremost? Plus: Sony's new 27" gaming monitor has people intrigued, Marvel Tokon: Fighting Spirits is getting another closed test, Elden Ring: Nightreign is receiving some much-needed DLC, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What do we think of Valve's new Steam Machine PC-console hybrid? In any given game's menus, where should subtitle options be nestled: General, Audio, or Graphics? Does ARC Raiders success potentially benefit Marathon? Is Dustin wielding his power over Brad in unsavory ways?
