This week on the M2 Podcast, we’re diving into some of the strangest and boldest moves in gaming. Ubisoft reportedly canceled an Assassin’s Creed game set during the American Civil War amid political concerns and backlash over Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Meanwhile, Battlefield 6 surprises players with a fully playable physical copy that requires no installation, something almost unheard of today. We also talk about Call of Duty’s fatigue as Black Ops 7 shows the cracks in Activision’s yearly release cycle, and finally, we unpack Nintendo’s bizarre new animated short about a sentient pacifier that has fans wondering… what exactly is Nintendo trying to say?
