Welcome back to The PC Gamer Show, our weekly livestreamed podcast. You can catch the show live on Tuesdays at 1 pm PDT on our Twitch channel, or after the fact at any of the links below.
There was a lot to chat about this week, with the relaunch of the Overwatch beta alongside our first post-release chat about XCOM 2. We've also been playing Firewatch, and had our usual Twitch Q&A. Even better: Evan's back! And to kick off his return, he filled in for Tom as host.
This week's topics:
- What we've been playing recently
- The Overwatch beta is back
- Our XCOM 2 campaigns so far
- James explores the wilderness in Firewatch
- Viewer questions from Twitch chat
