It’s been another busy week for video games, and while new releases have slowed a bit, there were some major bits of news to cover. Cameron and Anthony are back to talk about all of this week’s happenings, though an unfortunate cat chewing accident means Cameron is using some backup equipment. However, the show must go on.
First off,God of Waris coming to PC. While PlayStation exclusives have steadily been making their way to the platform, this is by far the biggest game to make its way there. Slated to release on January 14, it will have a number of quality of life improvements unique to the platform. However, fans still shouldn’t get their hopes up for major new PlayStation first-party games to launch on day one on PC.

Next up,Cyberpunk 2077’sandThe Witcher 3’s next-gen upgrades have been delayedto next year, with the former launching in the first quarter of 2022 and the latter launching in the second. It’s a big blow to fans that have been waiting for the improvements, though more time in the oven will mean a more stable product when the upgrades release.
In more unfortunate news,Elden Ringhas been delayedto August 01, 2025. The game now releases in dangerous proximity to other major titles, includingHorizon andSaints Row. It seems likely that something will move, though, or perhaps even multiple games, given the number releasing in the window and the current climate caused by the pandemic.
Rounding out the news, anewSplinter Cellis rumored, though it’s supposedly just entered development. Still, it’s great news for fans, even if Ubisoft’s recent moves have been controversial. Finally, Nintendo announced the Expansion Pack pricing, which will be available for $50 yearly for an individual account, or $79 for a family account.
