Remap Radio

One of the many upsetting realities of modern society is headlines about CEOs complaining about giving people “jobs” and “security” and “a way to eat.” Patrick, Janet, and Chia are ready to live in this reality with you, though, on the latest episode of Remap Radio. With Rob in Miami, the crew tackles backlogs, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil movie, and a bunch of video game impressions, including a Pragmata mini spoilercast, Pokémon Champions, Saros, Replaced, Inkonbini, and more! Plus, in The Question Bucket, we’re asked to (poorly) wish someone a happy birthday.

One of the most fascinating games of 2026 is Titanium Court. Is Titanium Court a match-3 video game? Yes. A tower defense game? Yes. An adventure game? Well, yes. Does the entire game, at times, feel like an elaborate trick been played on you? Absolutely. To learn more, Patrick spoke with Titanium Court designer AP Thomson about making a game about mysteries, the highs and lows of working on two video games at the same time, and, of course, sports manga.

The biggest move since Xbox installed a new CEO is a familiar move: changing the price of Game Pass. Which gets the Remap Radio crew into a long consideration of the vibes around various price points. Does $8.99 feel good? Does $11.99? Join Rob, Janet, Chia, and Patrick as they consider money, before talking about Gamers (tm) suing Nintendo over tariffs, Rob’s early experiences in Crimson Desert, Chia and Patrick exploring Titanium Court, and much more.
Reminder: Last year, the pro-Palestinian human rights movement BDS that’s pressuring Israel by promoting boycotts, divestment, and sanctions against the country added Xbox to its boycott list. Learn more here: https://www.bdsmovement.net/news/boycott-microsofts-xbox

Bad news for Marathon fans: Rob “the anti-influencer” Zacny is playing a lot of Bungie’s extraction shooter. We kick things off on Remap Radio with a long story about Rob’s adventures on Tau Ceti IV, before we chat about Sony trying to make a Bloodborne movie, Marty O’Donnell making another attempt at political grifting, and initial reactions to the next Metro game. Plus, Patrick and Janet have been playing (and really enjoying) Capcom’s Pragmata. Plus, we dip into The Question Bucket and ponder what video game mechanics we’ve shamefully missed.

When Séverin Larose was a kid, he would hang out with his cousin and watch him play games. That’s the key word: watch. Larose’s parents long had a zero tolerance policy for games. Decades later, Larose would partner with his cousin to rise to the top of the Flash game charts and eventually create one of the best Metroidvania games of the past few years, Minishoot’ Adventures. (And, yes, by the end of this interview you’ll understand the apostrophe thing.)
