On this week’s Salient Points: a new Black Panther game is in the works and the gang talks about the hype — or lack thereof — for an open-world title from the development pedigree that brought us Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor.
Dalan, Luis, and I talk about that, Naughty Dog’s 10 minute The Last of Us Part I deep dive defending “hurtful” leaks, The Lord of the Rings: Gollum getting delayed, Halo Infinite‘s lack of online co-op matchmaking, Platinum Games’ defense of Nintendo’s hands-off approach to Bayonetta 3‘s no-nudity mode, Batman “really being dead” in Gotham Knights, and more.
Games featured: Assassin’s Creed Baghdad, Tactics Ogre, Killzone: Mercenary, Killzone: Shadow Fall, RIGS, Dragon Ball: The Breakers, Stray, Returnal, Horizon Forbidden West, The Quarry, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Raji: An Ancient Epic, Ghostwire: Tokyo.
