Microsoft Buys Bethesda, Next-Gen Chaos, Hades

Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On this week's episode, Ben Hanson, Jeff Marchiafava, and Suriel Vazquez are joined by YouTube essay extraordinaire Jacob Geller to talk about his upcoming charity stream and the wild news that Bethesda has been fully purchased by Microsoft. We also wade through the pre-order and exclusivity confusion surrounding the PlayStation and Xbox Series X. Then we're joined by the great Mary Kish from Twitch to rave about Hades with our review of Supergiant's new game and answer community questions submitted on Patreon alongside Ana Diaz!
