Ben, Jessica Clemons, and Matt James press reset on the gaming calendar and place hype-thetical preorders for the most intriguing releases of the coming year. First they look back at last year’s most anticipated titles to examine how predictable good games actually are. Then they discuss this year’s two biggest tentpoles, ‘Grand Theft Auto VI’ and Nintendo’s Switch successor, assessing their excitement for each and the odds of ‘GTA VI’ avoiding a delay (8:30). After that, they preview a stacked February (40:00), select their most anticipated games of 2025 in several categories (29:30), and wrap up with big-picture predictions (1:16:20).
