Checkpoint Intimates: The Season Pass Conversation

Video Games

Checkpoint Intimates is a new weekly podcast where two members of the team go one-on-one on a topic that they both feel strongly about, talking in a more deeper and, yes, intimate context.

Luke and Elliot discuss the idea of a season pass – a financial commitment to download all future downloadable content for a video game.

After news last week was revealed about a couple of… let’s just say “questionable” season pass details, specifically for big releases For Honor and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, the boys talk about what they think a good season pass should contain, talk recent examples and think about what publishers should do with this concept in the future.
