This week on VG Pulse, we somehow still have a lot of news!! We start off with side notes of recovering from illness, before diving into the news where we discuss the Playstation Winter State of Play 2024, the amazing runaway success of Palworld, the theft of over 35000 Pokémon cards among other merchandise, the alarming number of layoffs across all corners of the games industry in the last month, and Pokémon’s response to Palworld and other games too! After the news we go over the Discord Discussions, and then Millennium gives his review of Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, and then he and I give a joint first look at Palworld!! All this and more up next on VGP 400!!! -Aki
