Matthew downloaded the God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla DLC and played through it over the course of three evenings. For being a free DLC from a AAA studio, this sure added a ton of lore and gave a well-crafted epilogue to the 2023 game.

Matthew finished Alan Wake II, even managing to platinum the game, and Christina was along for the whole twisty, dark, horrifying ride. Remedy's latest game is all sorts of fantastic for so many reasons and we barely even scratch the surface.
