House House, the studio behind Untitled Goose Game, returns with Big Walk, a co-op puzzler built entirely around proximity chat — and a bold decision to ban traditional voice chat altogether.
This week on The Press Start Podcast, Ewan, Brodie and James debate whether that design choice is genius or a recipe for co-op chaos, and ask whether Big Walk can rise above the flood of "friend games" currently on the market.
Also in this episode: Sony breaks its silence on killing off PS5 discs, and Game Freak's Soulslike debut Beast of Reincarnation gets reviewed.

00:16:31 Sony Responds to Backlash & Boycott
00:23:08 Beast of Reincarnation Review
