The Love That You Need Will Never Be Found at Home | Sacred Symbols, Episode 295

The dam has broken. After paving the way just last week, Microsoft has confirmed its four games that are coming to PlayStation platforms, and they’re arriving a lot sooner than any of us thought. One of them -- Pentiment -- is available on PS4 and PS5 alike right now, while Hi-Fi Rush isn’t far behind. Multiplayer titles Grounded and Sea of Thieves will round things out, but certainly, this is just the beginning of the migration, right? Other news this week includes the release date for Elden Ring’s long-awaited expansion, percolating PS5 Pro rumors suggesting a fall release, the beginning of Jim Ryan’s goodbye tour, PSVR2’s PC future, and much more. Listener inquiries help us round things out, as usual. Did Hiroki Totoki successfully diagnose Bungie’s issues? Does Sony suffer and Nintendo benefit from a double-standard when it comes to porting and otherwise re-releasing their respective games? Could Resistance: Retribution’s reemergence indicate a future for the dormant franchise? Is Brad saying “Colin“ wrong on all of his shows? Follow the hosts on Twitter!
