The MinnMax Show - GOTY Prediction, Horizon Reboot, Mortal Shell 2 Review (Patreon)

MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Jacob Geller, Janet Garcia, and Kyle Hilliard unpack the lay of the land for our 2026 GOTY before the onslaught of games releasing in September. Then we discuss the Bloomberg story about Guerrilla Games rebooting the multiplayer Horizon Hunters Gathering based on poor feedback and Jacob shares some praise for the new Elden Ring-like Mortal Shell 2. Then things get deadly serious as we bring freelancer extraordinaire Hayes Madsen in to dissect everything revealed about D23 about Kingdom Hearts IV. After that, it's all your wonderful communtiy questions!
