MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Jacob Geller, Sarah Podzorski, and special guest cohort for the month Alanah Pearce break down the highlights from Microsoft's big Xbox Developer Direct with the big reveal of Ninja Gaiden 4 and a ton of information on Doom: The Dark Ages from id, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and South of Midnight. Then Jacob shares his thoughts on the excellent sci-narrative/tabletop-inspired Citizen Sleeper 2 before we dive into questions submitted by the community!
