Episode description

This week on After Hours Arcade, the crew dive deep into a jam-packed episode filled with gaming news, heated takes, and a few surprises. We kick things off with our High Score Countdown, revealing our Top Favorite Fruits because gamers have taste, too!

In the main segment, we break down Helldivers 2 jumping to Xbox, the growing buzz around Halo potentially hitting PlayStation and Switch, and the wild reveal of a Call of Duty-style open-world shooter from ex-Sony devs. Plus, we revisit GTA 6's latest trailer, debate the future of buying DLC on credit, and unpack Microsoft’s vision for an always-connected Xbox.
