Final Thoughts
That was very long.
There were some definite highlights in the list for me. Sonic Racing: Crossworlds, Atomic Heart II, Killer Inn, and a few others. There were a decent number of games that were generally similar with “medieval” and “swords” being the focus of their trailers. I had a few moments where games began running together. Looking through the list as I put this together, I had to refer back to my notes and ask myself, “Which game was that?”
But the big ones that have been added to the must buy list include Mafia: The Old Country, Dying Light: The Beast, Mixtape, MindsEye, and obviously Resident Evil 9: Requiem. I hope you enjoyed the show. Reach out on our Discord or on the socials and let us know which ones were the highlights for you!!
