Happy New Year and we have a  68.7 Billion USD news for you today!!!!!!!!!
The Gaming Industry has definitely been rocked by this news. Microsoft/Xbox is in process to buy Activision/Blizzard, owners of big franchises such as ''Call Of Duty'', the all time biggest shooter out there right now, if not the biggest game. 
This is mind blowing. 
Microsoft woke up today and chose ''Violence'' HAHAHA. 

What way to end the year with another episode from the GOAT realm. 

We wrapped up this year covering all the moments in the gaming industry that has crossed our paths and then looked forward to another successful year in 2022. 

We had a new face on the show, Ms Eno Odiase who has a natural passion for gaming and packed with lots of girl power!. 

We definitely hope you all had a splendid Christmas and we wish you a smooth transition into the new year. 



Let's GOOO!!

Episode 12 is here! and we have a very special discovery for ya'll. 

On our continuous journey in discovering what the Nigerian Gaming landscape looks like, we stumbled on a particular video game development which initially seemed to be heavily inspired by African culture, specifically Nigerian. We just had to dig deeper and what we found out was mind shattering in many forms. 

A NIGERIAN MADE video game was in development, and it was being developed using ''Unreal Engine'' to be released on major platforms. In fact, we felt like little children after realizing that their house had won the school's annual inter-house sports competition. 

A Nigerian made video game? going by the name, Legends of Orisha: Blood and Water (Legends of Orisha).   what are the odds!!!. 

And the incredible team behind this gem is an independent Nigerian based game development studio, called Dimension11 Studios. We reached out to the Co-Founder/Gameplay Engineer, Mr. David Olamide and he was humble enough to take out time from his busy schedule to have a sit down with us and tell us all about their journey and this project. 

We have to say, we couldn't be more prouder to be Nigerian.

Kenneth AKA @themanfromuncle calls AJ up at an ungodly hour to  chat about what has been going on in the gaming world. 

From the playstation #stateofplay event to new game releases to upcoming end of year releases. 

And for no reason, the topic on xbox gamepass and playstation now came up. 

Enjoy!
