This week on After Hours Arcade, BTG and the squad hit play on a wild mix of gaming and entertainment news! We kick things off with the disappointment (but not surprise) of the GTA 6 delay, then dive into Street Fighter’s co-creator entering the ring with a new boxing game in collaboration with Ring Magazine.

Leaked images of the Asus ROG Ally 2 have us speculating about the future of handhelds, and out of nowhere, Ecco the Dolphin is swimming back into our lives with a reboot. There's also chatter about new DLC for Expedition 33, and Nintendo’s throwing down the hammer—literally bricking devices to stop piracy. Yikes.

On the entertainment front, Fallout is officially renewed through Season 3, Ironheart drops a fresh trailer, and Spider-Noir gets a shadowy teaser with Nic Cage in the lead.
