What's up and welcome to The Dual Sense Podcast as we bring you ALL of the week's PlayStation news, rumors, new game releases, and more in less than 90 minutes! On this week's episode we have much to discuss. Suffice it to say, this is certainly not how PlayStation imagined their week would go. We recap and discuss our thoughts on the PlayStation Showcase - was it really that bad? There was also late-breaking news that Naughty Dog has delayed its multiplayer The Last of Us project, as well as a new investor relations presentation from Sony that detailed how PlayStation is doing financially. We also discuss word of Deviation Games project indeed being cancelled, a John Wick game is in development, a new God of War game is on the way, Embracer Group is in trouble, Geoff Keighly has a few big things to show us (whoa!), and Battlefield 2042 is set to being post-launch year two. All of that and so much more! If you enjoy the show, perhaps consider subscribing to get a new episode delivered every Monday. Also, we'd be much obliged if you could leave us a rating, review, like, comment, etc. Most importantly, we'd love to be in the earholes of a friend or loved one of yours. Care to introduce us? As always, thank you for listening and have a great week!…
