Earlier this week, news broke that Sony was in talks to buy FromSoftware parent company Kadokawa. A day later, Kadokawa acknowledged that takeover interest.

Yesterday Sony finally announced the long-rumoured PS5 Pro in a technical presentation hosted by Mark Cerny.

1:35:45

How long have you been a Eurogamer reader for? Let me put that another way: how many different Eurogamer editors do you remember?

31:26

This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, we discuss the downsides and upsides of the video game battle pass.

39:12

This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, we discuss everything shown at the Xbox Showcase last night: one of the best summer preview events in recent years, and one of Microsoft's best ever.

23:26

This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, we discuss the future of Xbox after the announcement Microsoft is shutting a swathe of Bethesda game studios.

This week on the Eurogamer Newscast, after the success of Amazon's Fallout TV series, we discuss the TV and movie adapatations of video games we'd love to see next.
