About this episode
We stayed up late to watch Xbox at Tokyo Game Show 2026 live.
Because apparently, we make excellent life choices.
🇯🇵 Xbox @ Tokyo Game Show 2026!
This week we're doing things a little differently. We watched the entire Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2026 broadcast live, microphones on, with absolutely no idea what was coming next.
This means you get our predictions, first reactions, increasingly questionable opinions and the occasional moment where we actually get something right.
🚕 Crazy Taxi Goes to Japan! Xbox and Sega showed off Japan in Crazy Taxi: World Tour, and suddenly we're ready to irresponsibly transport complete strangers around Japan at tremendous speed.
There was also a new campaign trailer for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, a wonderfully creepy new Fallout 76: The Slasher trailer, more Persona 4 Revival, and a proper look at Bloodstained: The Scarlet Engagement.
🎮 So. Many. Games. We got our first proper gameplay look at Raji: Kaliyuga, a massive new boss in Wo Long 2: Wings of Ember, the very pretty Edge of Memories, and the slightly bonkers looking GACHIAKUTA: BREAKOUT.
Then there's Bloomwalker, which is now officially part of the Ni No Kuni universe and lets you build yourself a lovely little home in a pocket dimension. Finally, a game that understands that sometimes we don't want to save the universe. We just want to rearrange the furniture.
We also met Faraday Blues, got more Genigods: Nezha, saw Hope in the City, and discovered that Shape of Dreams was launching on Xbox and Game Pass right then and there.
That's how you do a shadow drop.
👻 HIDEO KOJIMA HAS ENTERED THE CHAT And just when we thought Xbox was done, Hideo Kojima appeared.
Of course he did.
We got another look behind the scenes at OD: KNOCK, with Sophia Lillis and Hunter Schafer doing performance capture, before Kojima moved onto PHYSINT.
And we now know who is leading Xbox's newly rescued Kojima espionage game: Bill Skarsgård. Yes. Pennywise...
Because apparently Hideo Kojima looked at one of the most unsettling men in Hollywood and thought, "That's my guy."
So, grab a drink, load up the Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2026 broadcast and watch along with us as Xbox throws 17 reveals and announcements our way and we attempt to make sense of them in real time.
Or just listen normally and enjoy two idiots reacting to video we can see and you can't.
We've thought this through.
Funny first. Factual second.™
