In this week’s episode of The Game Informer Show, the crew discusses real video games you can play, including our early Palworld hands-on reactions and The Last of Us Part II Remastered review. You might’ve heard us describe the former as “Pokémon with guns” previously, but Palworld’s crafting and survival focus make it stand out as its own unique experience. After breaking down the updates packed in with Naughty Dog’s rerelease, we shift our attention to Another Code: Recollection and Final Fantasy XVI.
