In this episode, we dive into the latest gaming industry headlines, starting with Fntastic's surprising return after the controversial failure of *The Day Before* and their launch of ‘Fntastic 2.0’. We also cover Nintendo’s legal crackdown on Switch emulators, resulting in the shutdown of Ryujinx, and Hi-Rez Studios’ recent layoffs in a bid to refocus on SMITE 2’s future. Plus, we explore Nintendo’s nostalgic new museum in Japan and Krafton's acquisition of Tango Gameworks, bringing the developer back from the brink after Microsoft's abrupt closure.
