The summer is slowly waning, and an autumn packed with new video games fast approaches. Join Alex, Kyle, Charles, and Eric as they take a look at some of the first big games of 2025’s latter half, from Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater to early impressions of Battlefield 6 through its open beta.
There’s also some details on the strange sports game Drag x Drive from Nintendo, the gorgeous blade-skater Sword of the Sea, the charming indie puzzler Is This Seat Taken?, and our reactions to Gamescom Opening Night Live. We must stress: this was recorded before the Hollow Knight Silksong broadcast, so enjoy a few speculative guesses at what it might have been, preserved in amber for our audience.
