Episode 15 - A New Foe Has Appeared! Sony's Revamped PlayStation Plus Subscription
Show Notes Chapter Markers

For years, Microsoft's Game Pass has been the king of video game subscription services. The internet has long been filled with chatter over if/when Sony's PlayStation would throw its hat in the ring and challenge Xbox on its home turf. Today, we have that answer. Sony unveiled its all-new PlayStation Plus subscription service. We dive into the details to see if it's a worthy competitor to Game Pass.

We'll also be discussing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel's delay to spring 2023,  how Dead by Daylight has fifty million players and an upcoming board game adaptation, and the new study that says esport athletes face the same level of mental stress as athletes in traditional sports.

Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the history of esport competitions.
