About this episode
The episode discusses various video games including Resident Evil Requiem and God of War: Sons of Sparta.
In a bumper episode of Checkpoint Chat we share our thoughts on Resident Evil Requiem, some concerns over the launch of Marathon, the exceptional challenge of climbing adventure Cairn, the mediocrity of God of War: Sons of Sparta, the absolute BS that is Bilewater in Hollow Knight Silksong, and the delightful joy of being cat Mario in Bowser's Fury.
