About this episode

The episode discusses new game releases, updates, and notable news from the gaming industry.

Our new-game slate is full up with Star Wars Zero Company and Blood Dungeon this week, plus updates on Big Walk, Marvel Snap, and... Elite Dangerous? In the news, we round up notables from the Gamescom Opening Night Live show, get excited about a new Amnesia Fortnight, and consider Tim Curry's impressive career in games (and otherwise). Plus, the Exit 8 expanded universe, too many cookbooks, cool video game company logos, and more.
