XtraPass: Mythology in Gaming

This episode brings the chaos, the charm, and the chili-fuelled challenges you didn’t know you needed. Join the crew as they welcome a new voice to the mix and dive into everything from spicy forfeits and questionable dietary decisions to building digital empires in Valheim and blowing up bridges in Battlefield.

They go deep on mythology in gaming, asking why it’s such a rich well to draw from—and where it’s headed next. From the cultural power of Norse gods to the underused beauty of Irish and Eastern mythologies, this conversation moves between history, fantasy, and future potential.

Plus: the ongoing Ubisoft vs Elon Musk saga, controversial account linking in modern titles, Twitch's latest monetisation changes, the nostalgia of PS2 classics, and why some games just make you want to run, not fast travel.

Gaming news, passionate tangents, and a sprinkle of philosophical gold—this episode has it all. Tune in, because mythology isn’t just ancient history—it’s how we tell stories now.
