253: Dragon Ball Z Kakarot, The Division 2 and PS5 Games We Want

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is the first big game of the year and with it comes a new take on the action RPG genre in the Dragon Ball Z universe. Does it deliver on the hype? We talk about the gameplay, the story integrations and much more with our guest. We also dive back into The Division 2 and talk about how it has changed over the last year.

Our news opens with YouTube being the exclusive streaming platform for Activision Blizzard games. Respawn unveils it's new season with a new hero, Stardew Valley sells 10 million copies and the director of Splinter Cell and Rainbox Six is back at Ubisoft.

Our discussion this week is around the PlayStation 5 and games we hope to see on the new console. We know what's coming out but we throw out some wild predictions for what we want PlayStation and their partners to deliver on to pull out all the stops. We talk everything from a space western from Naughty Dog to the next Horizon Zero Dawn and SpiderMan.
