This week, Jon joins Luke to talk about how the Overwatch franchise has taken the video game space by storm, and speculate about how the brand, beyond the wildly successful game itself, will continue to grow. With over 10 million active players now, the franchise is poised to become another ubiquitous media presence, but how will Blizzard exploit the brand going forward? Join the Level 0 NPCs to consider the possibilities.

Serious Sunday is a freeform roundtable discussion between the members of the Level 0 NPCs, where a specific topic is pre-selected by the group to be explored and discussed at length. Each of the NPCs approach the topic from both the perspective of a seasoned, die-hard gamer, and as creators of games themselves. Part freeform review, part critical analysis, part video game book club, Serious Sunday is where the NPCs take a step back and take a moment to give a serious look at something that is important to the industry, or games in general.
