Pokémon Legends: Arceus, 12 Minutes, And Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut | GI Show
In this week’s episode of The Game Informer Show, the crew discusses Pokémon Legends: Arceus news, Twelve Minutes review impressions, the new island in Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut, and Sega’s new 4X civilization builder game, Humankind. We also share our hands-on impressions of Madden NFL 22 and how easy it is to sink hundreds of hours into the series’ Franchise Mode; and later, we compare Dead Space 2’s onslaught of scares to the first game’s quieter, more cerebral approach to horror.
Additionally, Ben Reeves passes the torch onto a new set of podcast hosts, Alex Stadnik and Alex Van Aken, as The Game Informer Show enters a new era. With new hosts comes a few changes, including updates to the show’s format which now features a news section, weekly roundtable chats about industry topics, and an improved audio listening experience. If you’re a fan of our past segments, The Playlist and Listener Questions, then don’t worry because those are still part of the show.
