<p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/minnmax" rel="nofollow">https://www.patreon.com/minnmax</a> - Unlock a benefit and directly support independent games media</p> <p>MinnMax's Ben Hanson, Jacob Geller, Kyle Hilliard, and special guest Bloomberg's Jason Schreier unpack the chaotic news out of Xbox that Double Fine, Ninja Theory, Compulsion Games, and more studios are in a state of flux and might be shut down if they can't find another buyer before July. Then things take a turn for the positive as we unpack Square-Enix's new HD-2D Team Asano ARPG The Adventures of Elliot: The Millenium Tales. Sarah Podzorski and Haley MacLean then join the show to talk about their big trip to Montreal for Dead by Daylight's 10th anniversary, Jacob raves about Project Wingman and Ace Combat, The Sims experts weigh in on Paralives, and we share some of our favorite Steam Next Fest demos. Then we answer questions submitted on Patreon by the community and award the iam8bit question of the week!
