  <itunes:subtitle>Don't worry, no need to wear protective eyewear to listen to this weeks episode. This week, EA makes a few announcements, some of them late, some of them unexpected, and some of them booed. Ubisoft finally gives us a release date for Star Wars Outlaws, and gives the Prince of Persia a roguelike makeover. Meanwhile, Disney makes big announcements for 2026, Joker gets a trailer, and AMC says "hindsight is 20/20". That and more. </itunes:subtitle>

We also had a state of play from Sony, Microsoft gutted Blizzard, and Mass Effect is headed to Destiny. Meanwhile The Thunderbolts loses several stars, Supergirl is found, Denis Villeneuve has plans for Dune 3.
