The 5 best games podcasts of 2020
1. Podcast Game Consultant
Taking a unique twist on things, Reinout is a games investor and strategic business consultant in the games industry. This is, of course, when he is not hosting his podcast: Podcast Game Consultant.
Topics covered on the podcast include recent game news, a watchlist of game studios, challenges in game development and tips to get into the industry, alongside so much more!
We recommend episode twelve, a discussion on Nordic game and the latest e-sports and gaming news.
2. Rooster Teeth Podcast
If you’re somewhat into gaming you’ve likely heard of Rooster Teeth before. On the Rooster Teeth Podcast, the team provides regular discussions on the latest gaming trends, updates, movies, and current projects they are working on.
If you’re a Rooster Teeth fan you’ve got to check it out – we recommend episode #595 ‘Making a Murder Hornet’.
3. Game Scoop!
Game scoop is another one of our favorite gaming podcasts, created by the staff over at IGN. Those who are interested in the latest gaming news should definitely tune in, providing a full week of news in each scoop.
We suggest episode 575, discussing PlayStation 5, the Final Fantasy 7 remake, games that vanished, and a classic debate of PS5 vs. Xbox series X.
4. Podcast beyond
If you’re a fan of PlayStation or are excited for the PlayStation 5 then you must tune in to Podcast Beyond.
Much like Game Scoop, Podcast Beyond is also brought to you by the IGN staff – this time the PlayStation team.
Expect much-awaited Sony news, old-fashioned shenanigans, and, of course, updates on the new PlayStation 5 console!
Podcast Beyond’s latest episode takes a look at PS5 games and Assassin’s creed Valhalla. You can check out the trailer here.
