🎮 EPISODE 386: PS5 Pro Now With More K

This week on PS This Is Awesome, Fred’s still deep in the package life with Death Stranding 2 (62 hours and counting!), while Jake’s playing Lies of P. In the news: Ubisoft is bringing Ghost Recon into first-person territory, Moon Studios ditches Xbox for PS5, and PS5 Pro hits a milestone with its first native 8K/60fps game. We also dig into a nostalgic boost for Atari 50, and a sneaky PS5 firmware update you probably already downloaded. Plus, we preview the week’s new releases—Luto, Monument Valley III, Killing Floor III, and more. No listener feedback this time, but the news and conversation more than carries the weight!

Plus, we run through this week’s new PSN drops, including Ready or Not, Neon Needles, and Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition.
