Xbox’s Big 2026 Plans, Perfect Dark Fallout, and Paramount’s Bid for WB S6E44

This week on the M2 Podcast, we break down a packed slate of industry shifts and major announcements. Xbox architect Jason Ronald hints that 2026 will be a milestone year as the brand approaches its 25th anniversary, fueling speculation around new hardware and ecosystem updates. Tomb Raider is officially confirmed for The Game Awards, with fans eager to see Crystal Dynamics’ long-awaited next chapter for the franchise. Meanwhile, former Perfect Dark leads resurface at 2K to build an all-new studio following the project’s cancellation at Xbox earlier this year. And in entertainment power-move territory, Paramount’s aggressive $108 billion bid for Warner Bros.—backed by investors tied to the EA acquisition group—escalates the fight for control of one of Hollywood’s most influential catalogs. We analyze the implications for gaming, media, and everything in between.

Ubisoft somehow insists Beyond Good & Evil 2 is still alive—and is even hiring—so we unpack the ongoing saga behind gaming’s most infamous vaporware. All that plus our picks for the best Black Friday game deals you can grab right now.

Indie Breakouts, Flight Gear, and the Xbox Drought S6E41

This week on the M2 Podcast, we break down some of the biggest stories in gaming. We dive into the unlikely seven-year journey behind Dispatch, the indie superhero hit that skyrocketed past one million sales in just ten days. We also look at Honeycomb Aeronautical’s new Echo Aviation Controller, a compact flight-sim device built for PC pilots with limited desk space. Then we get into why more gamers are jumping ship from Windows to Linux as frustration with Microsoft grows. And finally, we talk about Xbox’s ongoing struggle at The Game Awards, marking fifteen years without a single Xbox exclusive nominated for Game of the Year.

Halo Returns, Arc Raiders Rises, and Ubisoft Restructures S6E39

This week on the M2 Podcast, we explore major shifts and surprises across the gaming world. Halo: Campaign Evolved is making its long-awaited return with a full Unreal Engine 5 remake — complete with reimagined visuals, modernized gameplay, and even a debut on PlayStation 5. We then dive into Arc Raiders, a new extraction shooter that breaks the genre’s grim formula by focusing on fun and creative chaos instead of frustration and loss. Meanwhile, Amazon is stepping away from the MMO market, halting development on New World: Aeternum amid sweeping layoffs and pivoting toward smaller-scale party games. And finally, Ubisoft is back in the headlines with more layoffs and buyouts as Massive Entertainment refocuses on The Division series, leaving the future of Star Wars and Avatar uncertain.

EA’s Credit Scandal, Remedy’s Shake-Up, and the Battle of Extraction Shooters S6E38

This week on the M2 Podcast, we cover a shake-up at Remedy Entertainment as longtime CEO Tero Virtala steps down just weeks after the studio’s profit warning following FBC: Firebreak’s disappointing sales. We also look at former Battlefield 6 creative director Marcus Lehto’s frustration with EA’s uneven crediting of Ridgeline Games’ former developers. Microsoft is once again teasing the future of Xbox — and it might blur the line between console and PC even further. And finally, Arc Raiders’ design director reflects on the coincidental overlap with Bungie’s Marathon playtests, calling it an unexpected “A/B test” for the future of the extraction shooter genre.0:00 Intro0:45 Updates10:20 Remedy CEO steps down https://tinyurl.com/y7uam277 18:30 Ridgeline Games creative director 'disappointed' in Battlefield 6 https://tinyurl.com/mpc7hr3a 31:15 Microsoft just teased the next Xbox https://tinyurl.com/46dfcsyh 39:30 Arc Raiders designer compare and contrast Marathon https://tinyurl.com/363cn2rf56:15 OutroLeave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching/listening!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------PODCAST ►► https://anchor.fm/m2podcastAMAZON Music ► https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/091902c3-b83b-487c-8fe7-4c96787434fe/M2-PodcastAPPLE ► https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1531832410BREAKER ► https://www.breaker.audio/m2-podcast-2CASTRO ► https://castro.fm/podcast/6f69d373-d879-46d9-9f1c-bcf7c4bf1741GOOGLE ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zNTYwNWZiMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==OVERCAST ► https://overcast.fm/itunes1531832410/m2-podcastPOCKETCASTS ► https://pca.st/5jghvf6eRADIOPUBLIC ► https://radiopublic.com/m2-podcast-GMZkY4SPOTIFY ► https://open.spotify.com/show/2VedhO03IRoHERJqF6Sy87STICHER ► https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/m2-podcastTUNEIN ► http://tun.in/pj3ZI#podcast JOIN THE DISCORD! ►► https://discord.gg/Kp5Gre6KyleHeath Socials:TIKTOK ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@mrjkheathTWITCH ►► https://www.twitch.tv/kyleheathTWITTER ►► https://twitter.com/mrjkheathYOUTUBE ►► https://www.youtube.com/MrJkheathMadMikeWillEatU Socials:TIKTOK ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@madmikewilleatuTWITCH ►► https://www.twitch.tv/madmikewilleatu/aboutTWITTER ►► https://twitter.com/madmikewilleatuYOUTUBE ►► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1MoIvzyMDvH_5Ta

The Xbox That Isn’t, Battlefield’s Ban Wave, and Splinter Cell’s Surprise Return S6E37

This week on the M2 Podcast, we dive into Microsoft’s bumpy entry into handheld gaming with the Xbox Ally and Ally X — Windows-powered devices that feel more like PCs in disguise than true Xbox consoles. We also break down EA’s latest crackdown as Battlefield 6 bans Cronus Zen users across PC and console in a major anti-cheat move. Finally, Ubisoft surprises fans by resurrecting Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow on Steam after years in limbo — though, in true Ubisoft fashion, it still comes with a Uplay catch.

Assassin’s Creed Canceled, Call of Duty Fatigue, and Nintendo’s Weirdest Short Yet S6E36

This week on the M2 Podcast, we’re diving into some of the strangest and boldest moves in gaming. Ubisoft reportedly canceled an Assassin’s Creed game set during the American Civil War amid political concerns and backlash over Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Meanwhile, Battlefield 6 surprises players with a fully playable physical copy that requires no installation, something almost unheard of today. We also talk about Call of Duty’s fatigue as Black Ops 7 shows the cracks in Activision’s yearly release cycle, and finally, we unpack Nintendo’s bizarre new animated short about a sentient pacifier that has fans wondering… what exactly is Nintendo trying to say?

EA is set to go private in a massive $55 billion buyout backed by Silver Lake, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners, raising questions about the future of franchises like Madden and Battlefield. We also explore Apple’s quirky new AirPods-controlled game, RidePods, which turns your head movements into a motorcycle racing controller. On top of that, Microsoft has restructured its Xbox Game Pass tiers, hiking Ultimate to $29.99 while expanding libraries, perks, and cloud access across all plans. Whether it’s corporate power moves, creative new tech experiments, or the ongoing subscription wars, this episode covers how gaming is rapidly changing on every front.

Live Service Games Stink, Xbox Age Verification, EA S6E27

This week on the M2 Podcast, we dive into the highs, lows, and head-scratchers shaping the gaming industry right now. Despite a $300 million loss from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Multiversus, WB Games is doubling down on live service games with a mysterious new DC-based title. Microsoft begins rolling out age verification for Xbox users in the UK, hinting at wider global implementation. We also explore the surprising price point and design decisions behind Mafia: The Old Country, as its developers push back on assumptions about its scope. And finally, EA goes “all in” on Battlefield 6, aiming to launch it not just as a game—but as a lasting platform backed by years of development and multiple studios.

M2 Podcast
Subnautica 2 Drama, Zelda Casting, and Valve’s New Rules S6E25

In this episode of the M2 Podcast, we break down the latest gaming industry shake-ups and tech updates. Krafton is being sued by the founders of Unknown Worlds after delaying Subnautica 2, though the publisher now says it will extend the bonus eligibility window and front some profit-sharing to employees. Nintendo’s Legend of Zelda live-action movie has found its stars, casting Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link and Bo Bragason as Zelda. Valve quietly updated its Steam policies to give payment processors more influence over “adult only content,” raising concerns over censorship and control. Finally, 8BitDo’s new Pro 3 controller brings swappable magnetic buttons, improved stick tech, and a sleek design inspired by Sony’s DualSense — all for $69.99.
