XDefiant's Huge Launch, Star Citizen's $700M Milestone

In the latest episode of the M2 Podcast, we dive into the impressive launch of Ubisoft's XDefiant, which has amassed nearly 8 million unique players in its first week, shattering expectations. We also discuss the ongoing saga of Star Citizen, which has now raised over $700 million without a release date in sight. YouTube's new Playables feature, offering a range of casual games across mobile and desktop, is another highlight, reflecting the trend of tech companies integrating gaming into their services. Sony's upcoming State of Play broadcast promises exciting updates on 14 PS5 and PS VR2 games, potentially from beloved studios like Naughty Dog and Insomniac Games. Finally, we reflect on CD Projekt Red's announcement that they have officially ceased development on Cyberpunk 2077, marking the end of a long and tumultuous journey for the game. 0:00 Intro 0:34 Updates17:01 XDefiant Hits Around 8 Million Players https://tinyurl.com/4x5myes3 23:08 Star Citizen Pushes Through the $700 Million https://tinyurl.com/2e5x28dc  39:36 YouTube rolls out its new Playables games to all users https://tinyurl.com/5ekyp5sf 45:37 PlayStation State Of Play https://tinyurl.com/3tp9mbr8  57:43 No One Is Working on Cyberpunk 2077 https://tinyurl.com/3jadht5v  1:14:41 Video Game Releases  1:21:15 Outro Leave a LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching/listening! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PODCAST ►► https://anchor.fm/m2podcast AMAZON Music ► https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/091902c3-b83b-487c-8fe7-4c96787434fe/M2-Podcast APPLE ► https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1531832410 BREAKER ► https://www.breaker.audio/m2-podcast-2 CASTRO ► https://castro.fm/podcast/6f69d373-d879-46d9-9f1c-bcf7c4bf1741 GOOGLE ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zNTYwNWZiMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw== OVERCAST ► https://overcast.fm/itunes1531832410/m2-podcast POCKETCASTS ► https://pca.st/5jghvf6e RADIOPUBLIC ► https://radiopublic.com/m2-podcast-GMZkY4 SPOTIFY ► https://open.spotify.com/show/2VedhO03IRoHERJqF6Sy87 STICHER ► https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/m2-podcast TUNEIN ► http://tun.in/pj3ZI #podcast JOIN THE DISCORD! ►► https://discord.gg/Kp5Gre6 FOLLOW THE TWITTER! ►►https://twitter.com/m2_podcast KyleHeath Socials: TWITTER ►► https://twitter.com/mrjkheath MadMikeWillEatU Socials: TWITTER ►► https://twitter.com/madmikewilleatu
