Tetracast - Episode 208: Getting Over the Language Barrier

by RPG Site Staff on 26 June, 2021

Welcome to the latest edition of the Tetracast, RPG Site's regular, seemingly weekly podcast!

After a busy E3 season, we are relatively back to normal in this episode, with Bryan and George discussing all things Yuffie and Final Fantasy VII Remake Episode INTERmission. Josh and Adam both had a chance to play through Scarlet Nexus, which seems promising as a brand new IP from Bandai Namco, and go at length on the game's style and substance. Chao jumps into nostalgia with Aion Classic, and George wraps up Returnal.

The news section this week is headlined by the official localization announcement of four Falcom Trails titles, some finally getting an official English release about a decade after their debut in Japan. We also have new sales milestones for the NieR series, the most important update ever made ever, and more!

This edition of the Tetracast features Bryan Vitale (@zeomassicot), Josh Torres (@HD_Kirin), George Foster (@gepugg), James Galizio (@theswweet), Adam Vitale (@king_seda), and Chao Min Wu.
