Eurogamer Newscast: Was Nintendo Direct and Sony State of Play a disappointment?

We’re back this week for another Eurogamer Newscast, focusing on the recent Nintendo Direct and PlayStation State of Play, as well as the week’s big news on the Yakuza franchise and the next steps for Xbox Game Pass. It’s been a busy week – full of Zelda, Pikmin, God of War and Yakuza 8 – but some corners of the internet are disappointed.

Granted, we didn’t see some of the things we expected to materialize. This week wasn’t one where we saw Wind Waker on Switch, Silent Hill on PlayStation, or got some sort of assurance that Nintendo even remembered what Metroid was. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a lot to look forward to.

Join Tom Phillips, Victoria Kennedy, Ishraq Subhan and Liv Ngan for our Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom theories, thoughts on new Switch hardware and our expert opinion on where to start with Yakuza.
