2021's Most Underappreciated Games, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Harmonix's Fate

Welcome back to The MinnMax Show! On this week's episode. Ben Hanson, Sarah Podzorski, Leo Vader, and Kyle Hilliard share their picks for some overlooked great games from 2021 and also talk about the news that Harmonix is now owned by Epic Games. Then we're joined by previous guests Nikole Zivalich (previously on the Weekend Confirmed podcast) and O'Dell Harmon Jr (former Game Informer intern) to talk about Pokémon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl and Riot Games' big multimedia expansion with League of Legends. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!
