Show Notes
Living in a foreign country is often cited as the best way to learn a new language. While we can't always do that, what if we could live there...virtually? We chat about some upcoming wholesome games, including one that drops you in Tokyo for an immersive language experience.
Plus, the continued joys of Kirby, returning to "Eastward," and our early impressions of the highly anticipated "Sea of Stars."
