Plus we have a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week Daemon is joined by IGN's Community Lead, Jada Griffin, and regular Game Scoop co-host Mark Medina to look ahead to the PlayStation 6. There have been tons of games announced during this generation that still haven't seen the light of day, and the chances of them being PS6 titles grows greater with each passing financial quarter. Games like the Splinter Cell remake, Star Wars Eclipse, The Elder Scrolls 6, and more have a good chance of missing the PS5 completely. Plus we have last week's poll results.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This Daemon, Max, and Ryan take a look at some upcoming open-world RPGs that could be adding something new to the genre. Last-gen games like Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk 2077 added incredible levels of immersion to their franchises, and now that we have new(ish) hardware like the PS5 Pro, open-world games could be entering a new era. Ghost of Yōtei, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, The Witcher 4, and yes, Grand Theft Auto 6 could be breaking new ground in the genre.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon, Max, and Ryan analyze recent comments from Xbox's Phil Spencer, and it sounds like Xbox is kind of done with the console wars. What does this mean for Xbox's future, and how does this affect PlayStation? And of course, there's Nintendo who goes by the beat of their own drum. Plus we have last week's poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week, Daemon, Max, and Ryan look back at the three major showcases from the three major console manufacturers. Sony recently had their State of Play, showing off a few high-profile titles like the Housemarque's Saros and Tides of Annihilation. Xbox also aired the recent edition of Developer Direct, highlighting first-party games South of Midnight, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Doom: The Dark Ages, and the surprise Ninja Gaiden 4. Of course, Nintendo had to get in on the action with the first official reveal of the Nintendo Switch 2. What made the bigger splash? Plus we have last week's poll results, and a new poll for you to go over at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week Daemon and Ryan are joined by IGN's publisher and gaming industry veteran John Davison to talk about the future of physical media. With gamers overwhelmingly preferring digital copies, and with cloud streaming technology making console-quality gaming accesible from nearly every device with an internet connection, will the PlayStation 6 or next Xbox feature a disc drive? And what does that mean for Nintendo, whose first-party games sell very well in physical form? Plus we have last week's poll results, and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week the usual crew of Daemon, Ryan, and Max are joined by Bo Moore, IGN's executive tech editor. With the Nvidia RTX 50-series cards now available (allegedly, since they're sold out now), we dive into the world of artificial intelligence to see if it's possible these new advancements will mean cheaper gaming hardware in the future. And the gang discusses how AI frame generation actually affects how games feel. Plus we have last week's poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon is joined by Ryan McCaffrey of Podcast Unlocked, and Jada Griffin from Nintendo Voice Chat. The topic: could, and will, Grand Theft Auto 6 be priced at $80 or more? Is a $100 base price for that game reasonable considering inflation rates and the rising cost of game development? Should hours a player will spend in the game determine how much they pay for it? And will the whole industry follow suit? Plus we have a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This is a very big week for next-gen gaming—after seemingly countless leaks over the past few months, the Nintendo Switch 2 has officially been revealed. Daemon, Ryan, and Game Scoop's Sam Claiborn take stock of what we know about the Switch, and what we DON'T know (which is admittedly a lot). Plus we have last week's poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week NVC's Brian Altano is joined by Beyond's Max Scoville and Unlocked's Ryan McCaffrey as they discuss the deluge of Nintendo Switch 2 leaks. The rumored hybrid console has seen its alleged motherboard, kickstand, and Joycon controllers leak in recent weeks, and accessory maker Genki even showed off a mock-up at their CES 2025 booth (which they later walked back). So how legit are these leaks? And does this mean an official announcement is imminent? Plus we have a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week Daemon, Max, and Ryan look back at 2024 and pick their favorite "next-gen" games of the year. These are the titles that really show off what the PS5 and Xbox Series X can do, like Hellblade 2's realistic facial animation, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle's immersive lighting, Astro Bot's water effects and DualSense controller features, Star Wars Outlaws' weather effects—you get the idea. Plus we have last week's Black Friday poll results and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon is joined by Beyond's Max Scoville and Unlocked's Destin Legarie to discuss the next front in the console war: handhelds. A recent Bloomberg report claims that Sony is working on their next PlayStation handheld that is meant to go toe-to-toe with the Nintendo Switch. Not to be outdone, Microsoft also has a handheld coming, and both Sony's and Microsoft's are years away, likely competing with each other and with the many PC handhelds already out from that corner of the industry. Will any of these prove real challengers to Nintendo's decades-long dominance in the handheld space? Plus we go over last week's poll results, and have a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This week Daemon is joined by Ryan McCaffrey from IGN's Xbox podcast, Unlocked, and Max Scoville from IGN's PlayStation show, Beyond! The topic: should Microsoft fast-track a new Xbox console since they won't be doing a mid-gen refresh? The PS5 Pro is now the most powerful game console you can buy, and since PS5's are outselling the Xbox 2:1, it might be better for Microsoft to hit the reset button. What do you think? Plus we have last week's poll results, and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.
