Cardy, Dale and Jesse are here to all the games that they're looking forward to (potentially) playing in 2021. Half of them probably won't actually be released but we can only hope for the best.

Remember, if yo...

This year, as every year, we at the IGN UK Podcast have convened as another 12 months come to an end, and come up with a load of thinly veiled excuses to talk about games we don't think will get enough attention in the proper Game of the Year awards. So sit back and join Joe, Jesse, and Alex for the likes of the "Early Access Games Are Good Actually, In Shocking Twist", "The Best Reminder to Take...

We also have a hotly contested...

Joe, Dale and Jesse are back and have a variety of opinions on The Mandalorian so far, leading us down a rabbit hole of obscure Star Wars lore like Darth Vader's boots being too small.
