Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about. Stack it up! Join Tricky, Alex, Yield and Matt as they discuss, among other things, Helldivers 2, Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut, and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. What’s more, Sony Interactive Entertainment, or SIE for short, are once again at the heart of more layoffs. No, Sony aren’t laying off more SIE employees; however, Deviation Games, who have partnered with SIE on a project, have announced that they are closing. Deviation Games, opened in 2020, have not — and will not — release a game. The video game industry continues to show great volatility in the job space, and not even Sony and SIE are able to shield from layoffs and closures. Here’s hoping we’re (now) on a less tumultuous path.
