In this 2021 preview episode, we sum up what’s new with the next-gen consoles (and PC! And Nintendo!) in the coming 12 months. We also serve up 21 gaming predictions for the next year – from Cyberpunk 2077 DLC to Master Chief appearing in Smash Bros, it’s all based on very few facts, and we hope you enjoy it.
This week’s music is from the Baldur’s Gate 3 soundtrack by Borislav Slavov.
