Silent Hill and The Witcher Remakes and Does Unreal Engine 5 Spell Doom For In-House Game Engines?

This week Steve is joined by friend of the show Max Wright and the pair kick the show off by answering the question… What is our favorite game franchise?

We also touch on a week of remakes from Age of Empires coming to Xbox, The Witcher ditching the Red Engine for Unreal Engine 5, and Silent Hill's big comeback! But does this shift to Unreal Engine 5 spell doom for in-house game engines and are we at risk of a choice between Unity or Unreal Engine 5?

Of course with it being Halloween week we had to touch on survival horror as a genre, especially with the upcoming Resident Evil Village DLC and the both of us being addicted to Vampire Survivors!
