With our first episode of 2026, we catch up on what we’ve been playing over the holidays, and what we’ve built! Kicking things off, Ryan received the LEGO Game Boy for Christmas and describes this epic throwback build. Jocelyn picked up many games in the Steam Winter Sale, but starts with Strange Antiquities and Wanderstop. Before moving to the news, Ryan gives us an update on Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. In the news, Ubisoft has closed a studio that unionized just a month before, PlayStation patents an AI Assist that could play games for you, and The Witcher 3 could receive a new expansion 11 years after release.

With The Game Awards behind us for yet another year, we take some time to discuss the winners and the ads. But first, we have games we played to discuss! Ryan has finally started his journey in Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, while both Joce and Ryan played PlateUp! With Travis and Nevermore on our latest Extra Life stream. Inspired by the Best Adaptation category at The Game Awards, Jocelyn watched Until Dawn.

But first, a movie based on a game: Five Nights at Freddy’s. Next, Jocelyn completes her adventures in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in preparation for our own GOTY episode. Finally in what we’re playing, Ryan shares his thoughts on Constance, a new metroidvania with some very welcome accessibility options.
