Episode 403 - Witcher one is it?
In this week’s episode, Fred and Jake break down a surprisingly stacked batch of PlayStation news. Rockstar has dropped a free PS5 upgrade for Red Dead Redemption, now included with PS Plus Extra, giving the classic western a fresh coat of paint and making it easier than ever for newcomers to jump in. The guys also celebrate indie success as Ball X Pit crosses one million sales on PS5, with major free updates announced for 2026 — proof that smaller games are thriving alongside the big hitters.
Fighting game fans get a boost with Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising’s new “Smart” and “Super-Ultimate” control modes, aimed at helping new players get comfortable without dumbing down the game. Ubisoft also sparks fresh hope by bringing back the original director for the long-dormant Splinter Cell remake, suggesting the project may finally be getting back on track.
Jake and Fred also touch on CD Projekt RED teasing more about the upcoming Witcher trilogy, plus PushSquare’s new “Five Years of PS5” quiz — perfect for testing how well longtime fans really know the console. It’s a fun, info-packed show full of speculation, industry chatter, and the usual friendly back-and-forth.
