October is proving to be an eventful month in the gaming industry, with the usual players dominating the headlines, for better or worse. Pokémon creators, Game Freak got hacked, and in between that, RM 20 million was allocated for esports during the tabling of Budget 2025. Hazelight Studios announced a new game, and Disco Elysium will be having at least 3 new spiritual successors. We summarise all these, and more on the show, as well as review October releases, including Dragon Ball Sparking Zero, Silent Hill 2 Remake, Metaphor ReFantazio, Romancing SaGa 2 Remake, and many more.

Review - Infinity Nikki

The long awaited Path of Exile 2 is finally here and available to be played! (albeit in early access). How does the second installment of this franchise that’s made to be a better alternative to the early version of Diablo 3 fare?
