Is this what fans were hoping for? Hard to see this limited offering not translate to lower review scores. #fantasycritic

Unsure which games from Summer Game Fest to bid on this week? We're here to help! #FantasyCritic

New episode is LIVE! Jon and Marcus get together for an emergency podcast to review announcements from Summer Game Fest. GET HYPED! #FantasyCritic Apple: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/h... Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/5CZt...

Recording a SGF Roundup Emergency Podcast tonight! Hit us with your SGF questions and we'll answer 'em on the show!

Let us know your thoughts? Any other announcements got you hyped?

Day of the Devs - Sword of the Sea got a date (August 19)! - Mixtape still doesn’t have a firm date, but its looking good, and seems like it’s getting close!

Those watching Summer Game Fest that had drafted RE9 were disappointed that it isn’t coming until Feb 2026. But in the meantime: - Avoid Dying Light the Beast (Aug) - Place a bet on Arc Raiders (Oct) - If Mina the Hollower (Halloween) is still available, break the bank on this one

The PS5 State of Play showed a lot of great games coming out in 2026, but these 3 games coming in 2025 are ready to make a Fantasy Critic splash: - Cairn (Nov) - Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster (Sept) - Lumines Arise (Fall) Remember to update your rosters appropriately

We are getting ready for our next episode, but in the meantime SGF is shifting the Fantasy Critic landscape, with some cool video games and release dates. Incoming thread with some Waiver Wire advice #HypeCheck #SummerGameFest #videogames
