By Keith MitchellJune 2, 2023
Spectator Mode Podcast

On Spectator Mode Podcast episode 137, we talk about the lackluster PlayStation showcase, while Marvelous hosted its own showcase that gave the gamers what they wanted. The Xbox ABK acquisition continues on, but now another country has backed the company, while Relic Entertainment lays off some staff and Gollum releases in such a terrible state that the game is a colossal flop. This and more on this episode of Spectator Mode Podcast.
