MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Kyle Hilliard, Jeff Marchiafava, and Janeet Garcia unpack the surprising release of a 2D God of War prequel called Sons of Sparta before Kyle regales us with the painful wonder of the Virtual Boy. Then we rundown our favorite reveals and games from the big State of Play revealing the roadmap for the PlayStation 5, we show some bloody love to Crisol: Theater of Idols, and JeffM takes us to the whimsical world of Mario Tennis Fever. Oh, we also gush about Windblown from the creators of Dead Cells! Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!
