Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an open world action adventure game and the latest installment in Nintendo’s much-loved Zelda series. After 100 years, a swordsman named Link awakes to finally fulfill his destiny to procrastinate as long as humanly possible on defeating that Calamity Ganon thing. “It’s okay,” says Zelda, as Link runs around in his boxers. “I’ve only been holding him back a hundred years, what’s another twenty?”

Fire Emblem Warriors

Fire Emblem Warriors, an action strategy game, discussed in this week's video game podcast

Fire Emblem Warriors is a hack-and-slash tactical role-playing game (a bit of an oxymoron, we know) made by Omega Force and Team Ninja for the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Switch. During an ordinary day, monsters attack the capital city of Aytolis and royal twins Rowan and Lianna must leave their mother behind. Wow, does that sound familiar to anyone else? In order to prevent calamity from taking over their world, the twins must power up the Fire Emblem with Gleamstones from heroes of other worlds. 

Reigns: Her Majesty

Reigns Her Majesty talked about on Talk This video game podcast

Reigns: Her Majesty is a card-swiping game where you play as a queen who treats her kingdom like Tinder. Try to avoid death as long as possible by keeping everyone at just the right level of pissed off. But, while you’re doing that, you must also uncover the secret behind your endless reincarnation and deal with the mysteries of the All-Mother. That can wait until you’ve become the thirstiest queen in all of history though.
