Final Fantasy XVI received big previews, and a new Dragon Ball Z Tenkaichi and Elden Ring DLC were announced since the last show, so that means Sean and Marc have plenty to discuss on this episode of Video Games 2 the MAX.
While Marc ponders what could be in the Elden Ring DLC, Shadows of the Erd Tree, Sean wonders if Final Fantasy XVI will sell the outrageous numbers that Square-Enix desires by going full Action RPG and finally shedding the last of its roots. Or could this complete embrace of something new actually backfire on them instead? And where are the guys at with feelings on the game after the major previews?
There's even more Square-Enix business news with a potential replacement of their President very soon and Luminous Productions being merged into Square-Enix itself. Sony has to reveal some of its exclusive deals to the courts, Detective Pikachu 2 may actually be happening, Telltale Delays Wolf Among Us 2, and much more!
