Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch, our show following all the news and rumors on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Series S. I’m Daemon Hatfield, and this week I’m joined by Ryan McCaffrey, host of IGN’s Xbox podcast, Podcast Unlocked, Jonathon Dornbush, host of IGN's PlayStation podcast, Podcast Beyond, and special guest, Stella Chung!
This week we take a deeper look at Halo Infinite and how multiplayer is shaping up amid player test flights. Stella Chung joins us to weigh in on modern quality of life improvements that 343 has taken note of and included, as well as our hopes for the campaign. We also discuss Sony’s acquisition of beloved developer, Bluepoint. And finally, poll results!
