What PlayStation announcements are expected?

Tim Geddes 0:49
I was distracted by the teaser. We need a song of the summer. It's not here yet. Will we get it on June 5th? Yeah, I guess you're right. Yeah, we don't have a song of the summer yet. 8 p.m. Eastern, 5 p.m. Pacific. That's really exciting. Do you want to... What's up? He just gave me a look. Months ago, you were like, guess what's going to be in the Nintendo Switch 2 commercial, launch commercial.
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 1:12
Sabrina Carpenter. It's happening.
Tim Geddes 1:14
She's dropping the song, Man Child, at the moment that the Switch 2 launches.
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 1:20
it's all connected everybody they had people listen to the show yeah i think mr nintendo heard the podcast and they're like ah snap that's a good idea we got the carpenter on the phone uh it's such a great week i think a state of play being announced was the thing to really pull it all together i think there was something about the week where i'm like all right i'm excited for the switch too i'm excited for summer game fest i'm excited for xbox like you know it's all exciting but i feel like there's that one piece missing and now it's like all
Tim Geddes 1:47
All right, cool. We're here. It's always more exciting when there's that everyone's here vibe. And we don't have a Nintendo Direct. We don't need one. We're getting the games. We're getting a whole new experience with Nintendo. This feels like old school, that one magical week of showcases. Because I feel like sometimes Summer Game Fest and even E3 feels a little scattered. Feels a little like, oh, it's getting too unwieldy. There's too many showcases that we know are not going to have anything of consequence. Ubisoft, I'm talking about you. We don't got that. We're cutting that now.
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 2:21
Yeah, cut the fat. Sorry, Ubisoft. You don't got anything going on right now. Tim, speaking of things going on, I've been talking about how in the last few weeks, I've been going to LA back and forth nonstop because there have been hella preview events and things going on. One of the preview events I went to was for the new Riot card game, Riftbound. The embargo is up now, but I can't talk about much. There's multiple embargoes. embargo right now though i can just talk about it very broadly so i'm actually not going to go that deep into it i just want to reveal this box that they gave me on the way out which is for like in a box the rift bag it's a box it's a box but it looks like a book it's a book wow um it says riftbound league of legends pre-launch summit that's the thing i went to was the summit right inside they gave me four trial decks okay for riftbound
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 3:07
Now, like I mentioned before, Riftbound is Riot's new card game. It's based off of League of Legends. It's kind of their attempt slash, I think, second attempt at a TCG, a trading card game. And going there last week, I thought it was going to be straight up like, okay, you guys are making a match at the Gathering. Like, I've seen the videos. Like, you guys have the mana that you spend to then play creatures and do all that stuff. All right, cool. I know what this is. Getting my hands on this, I was very, very impressed by how new and fresh this felt. And I say that as somebody who I've not played every TCG, obviously, right?
Tim Geddes 3:38
And you're also not the biggest at all Riot person.
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 3:41
No.
Tim Geddes 3:41
I feel like you're dabbling. You're starting to dabble.
Blessing Adeoye Jr. 3:44
I dabble. I like Valorant. 2KXL coming. 2XKL's coming, and I'm like super hyped. I know, nobody ever gets it right. Yeah, 2XKL.
