About This Episode

In this episode of Buona La Prima, we asked ourselves: “Okay, no big bombs... but can we at least find a few grenades?”

So here we are with 5 gaming news stories that might seem kinda “meh” at first glance — but actually say a lot about where the industry is headed:

  • Who are the real contenders for Game of the Year 2025?

  • Netflix is taking another shot at a live-action Assassin’s Creed series

  • The Chinese Room goes independent again (with some behind-the-scenes tea)

  • Xbox Game Pass adds more day-one releases

  • Nintendo starts fueling the hype for Switch 2 with a packed release calendar

And watch out for the twist: Metacritic’s mid-year data reveals some unexpected trends (Donkey Kong, anyone? Yep, Donkey Kong).

Tune in till the end — we’ve sprinkled in a bit of spice too.
