This week on All Things Nintendo, Brian gives his final verdict on Blasphemous 2, the challenging new Metroidvania that takes inspiration from games like Dead Cells and Dark Souls. Next, we have two interviews with people who are involved in the music of the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, but in very different ways. First up, we’re talking to Katie Chrzanowski, who you may know as the Social Media Manager for the Sonic the Hedgehog brand. However, she is also the producer of Sonic Symphony, which went live in 2021 and is headlining a world tour that takes place this fall. Brian is then joined by Sonic Mania and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge composer Tee Lopez. He is also the composer for the upcoming Sonic Superstars.
