We're joined by DansGaming this week to chat about all the amazing films we've been watching and how the newest Elden Ring trailer is peak cinema. Then we have a long discussion over Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 not blowing the socks off everyone and how it's difficult not to see the game in a vacuum after all the recent XBOX studio closures. Should we start worrying for Ninja Theory (some broad spoilers!) Valve is making a new game, The Last of Us 2 director: Neil Druckmann on AI, Diablo 4 season 4 and more!
