State of Play 2026: Wolverine's Bloodbath & The God of War Plot Twist
State of Play 2026: Wolverine’s Bloodbath & The September Games Warzone
The internet is officially broken. Sony just dropped their June 2026 State of Play, and the release calendar for this fall is an absolute warzone. Why is every major studio cramming their biggest titles into a single week in September? Because they are all terrified of the Grand Theft Auto VI elephant in the room—and we are here to break down who is going to survive the crash.
In this episode, Duke and Ronninhunter deep dive into the Top 10 biggest headlines:
🪓 God of War: Laufey: The ultimate mic drop. We break down 20 minutes of gameplay featuring Kratos’ late wife, Faye, fighting through the afterlife (voiced by Deborah Ann Woll and Jack Quaid!).
🩸 Marvel’s Wolverine: Insomniac did not play nice. We unpack that brutal, exceptionally violent 7-minute gameplay deep dive. Jean Grey and Sabretooth are officially co-starring!
🏝️ Until Dawn 2: Firesprite is taking us to an abandoned tropical island with a group of ghost-hunting TV crew idiots.
🏙️ Control Resonant: Remedy shifts the spotlight to Jesse’s brother, Dylan Faden, in a reality-warped, paranatural Manhattan.
🐸 Rayman Legends Retold & Tomb Raider: Ubisoft surprises us with a 3D Rayman remake, and Lara Croft returns to her roots in Legacy of Atlantis.
🤜 Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls: Arc System Works showcases the "Knights of Doom" faction. Get ready for Doctor Doom, Magneto, and Carnage.
⚔️ Capcom & Konami Revivals: Onimusha: Way of the Sword brings back the heavy katana slashing (and yes, Duke rants about the parry system again), while Silent Hill: Townfall takes us to a creepy, misty Scottish town.
⏳ Dune: Awakening: A massive new look at the highly anticipated single-player story mode trailer.

The Rookie Agent: How Patrick (Dexter: Original Sin) Gibson's 26-year-old, flawed, and wild James Bond compares to the cinematic gold standard of Casino Royale.
The Gameplay: Why this isn't just a Hitman reskin, but a high-octane blend of Uncharted and Batman: Arkham that forces you to embrace the chaos.
The Lore & Nostalgia: A look at the younger, developing versions of M, Q, and Moneypenny, and how the game perfectly balances Daniel Craig realism with classic Connery/Moore absurdity.
The Internet Drama: Debunking the online controversies, from the bizarre "woke" backlash over female leadership to the viral, hilariously stiff NPC driving clips.
