IGN UK Podcast

Joe's reviewed I Am Dead, Annapurna's new lightly puzzle-filled island game about slicing up objects. It sounds very odd, but very nice. It's that time of the year again where Cardy is knee-deep in FIFA so expect some football related chat. Also, Matt's been getting stuck into some new RPGs with Baldur's Gate 3 and Genshin Impact, both of which he's enjoying quite a bit. There's also plenty of time to talk all things sausages, bread and ham. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

The manic marsupial, AKA Crash Bandicoot is back, and because he forgot to press record the first time; so is Dale with a second go at explaining all his thoughts on the game. Jesse is also on and has been playing a ton of Star Wars: Squadrons. In other news, he also has a new voice changer toy that distracts us for a good 30 seconds too. Cardy rounds off the trio by telling us all about his early thoughts of the Mafia Remaster and we also have an extremely tight round of The Endless Search that needs an action replay to decide a winner. It's tense stuff. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On a bountiful menu today is plenty of PS5 treats to sink our teeth into. The reveal of Final Fantasy 16 served as an attention grabbing starter, before a flurry of exciting middle courses in the form of Resident Evil, Deathloop and others. All rounded off by the show-stopping God of War shaped dessert followed by a mad rush to actually pre-order a console. Nintendo also announced a couple of new Monster Hunter games for the Switch that has had Joe hungry for more, but for now he and Matt have had the chance to feast on Immortals Fenyx Rising and let you know why you should be excited. Meanwhile, Cardy continues to binge-snack on Avengers. There's a tasty new Endless Search this week as well, along with your nourishing feedback as always.
