We're back after a few weeks off! This week we're talking about the games we've been playing, mainly Final Fantasy 16 and the metroidvania Afterimage. But Zach gives some impressions on the Pikmin 4 demo and some general thoughts on the latest Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope DLC.








We also give some very general, spoiler-free thoughts on Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning.
