Greetings listeners!

On this week's episode we dive into our early thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (which Kyran talked about pretty extensively on Story Mode this week) from our very own Joel McDonald and very good friend of the show Broderick Gordes. Join us as we gush about what might very well be the new best game of all time, talk about how we find the opening hours and Nintendo's new open world playground (check out this video to see how they solved the open world problem with the original). Kyran also sneaks in some early impressions on the bizarre new puzzle game, Humanity, at the end of the Quest Log.

Meanwhile in the Bonus Round we reconcile with us accepting that Overwatch may be a game we'll be stuck remembering fondly after news broke that Overwatch 2's advertised Hero-focused story mode content that was to feature new enemies, talent trees, and the ability to customise what each heroes abilities would do has officially been canned. In it's place they'll be rolling some content into smaller seasonal PvE experiences. Overwatch is a game that we loved dearly upon its year of release and we were, much like many others, excited by the prospect of exploring this cast of incredible characters from a new story focused perspective and that will now never become reality.

You can check out a really good interview by Gamespot here that goes into the current situation and the reasons for the decision.
