BFM x KKP Monthly Round-up - February 2024

The gaming world tries its best to celebrate February with awesome releases, with Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth at the forefront. Despite that, Persona 3 Reload, Helldivers 2, Islands of Insight, and even to a certain extent, Skull and Bones (finally!) have something to shout about too, as these releases are worth checking out as well. On the news front, Sony announced that they won’t be releasing any major games from existing franchises this financial year, while Microsoft will be releasing some of their exclusives to other platforms. But will this be a good move for the company, or will it backfire on their console sales moving forward? We discussed this on the show, with Kakuchopurei’s content director, Jonathan Leo.
