Summary

In our latest and sanest episode of The Game Informer Show, it's time for the crew to dodge zombies, mix herbs, and slot gemstones into strange doors. It's Resident Evil Requiem week, and everyone's been playing it in some fashion, so Marcus, Wes, Charles, and Eric spend the first half of the show talking through all of it.

After the break, we get into our favorite Steam Next Fest demos, from Star Fox-alikes and Disco Elysium-alikes to a game where an egg is mightier than the gourd. And we close things out with Marcus teaching us all a little bit about wrestling, WWE 2K26, and why you should always get your athletic performer contracts in writing.

0:28.5	introduction because before we were recorded, I was tasked by one Charles Hart who is here
0:33.9	to assign each person a ninja turtle. So I'm going to go around, I'm going to introduce
0:41.1	everyone, and I'm going to name the turtle that I personally think maybe you match with personality
0:47.6	wise. So Charles Hart says this is, actually, I'm going to start with myself and you're, you're going to
0:53.4	hate this.
0:54.5	Yeah.

1:34.6	Wesley LeBlanc, hello, you're the news hound, and you're kind of like the leader of the news.
1:41.0	So I think it's only appropriate that you are the Leonardo. I'll take
