We also take you through the big news of the week, including the new Overwatch hero – a hamster called Wrecking Ball, Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation adding a disturbing new NSFW feature, Sony and their cross-play debacle, Halo getting a TV series and more!

Also on this episode, Luke got the chance to sit down and interview WWE World Champion AJ Styles and WWE Smackdown Women’s Champion Carmella about their upcoming tour and also video games (of course). Plus, Luke gets behind the wheel for some serious open world driving in The Crew 2!
