Square Enix 'Presents' Recap & New 'Life is Strange' - Episode 90

Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, & PC gaming. Square Enix just wrapped up their first of multiple digital events of the year, and we’ve got updates on some of the biggest games coming from the long time publisher including a new look at the upcoming entry into the Life is Strange franchise. But is their approach a good barometer for what we can expect from their peers in terms of messaging moving forward? This week, we examine all of their big announcements, plus discuss what this event means for E3’s digital return this year. Do we see more publishers follow suit, as the ESa continues to find out what the future holds for the once staple media event in our industry? Plus, Activision Blizzard is currently processing layoffs for its live events sectors including in regards to both the OverWatch League Call of Duty World League, but at the same time, their CEO Bobby Kotick will be receiving a stock incentive bonus of up to $200 million this year. What message does this send to the rest of AAA gaming, as we continue to see executive flourish regardless of results, while developers and other departments receive the worst of this? Also, another day, another Xbox VR rumor begins to float around. Do we ever see Mcirosoft truly take the dive into VR, now that their peers at Sony have confirmed they will be introducing a PSVR 2? All of this and much more on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast! Be sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss a show when they drop every Friday morning!
