We're down to a duo this week so the show is shorter, but we still make time to dive into Saros (and just how different or similar it is to returnal), Windrose, Xbox's direction in the wake of new leadership, those rumors about the Steam Controller, and plenty more.

This week's music: The Vampire Lestat - Long Face

We're back and we've got a lot to say about Resident Evil Requiem - why it's one of the best games of the year, and also why it's maybe just a little bit disappointing, even if that's not fair.
