are we even getting a typical summer Nintendo Direct at all this year? We've officially entered the summer gaming news cycle! With Tears of the Kingdom having just released and a few odd marketing decisions, we have to wonder. With Summer Game Fest 2023 happening tomorrow, the Carpool Gaming crew comes together to predict what we'll see at the show tomorrow!

Summer Game Fest 2023 is here and we've gathered the Carpool Gaming crew to break down everything we saw!

Once you’ve painted enough graffiti, you’ll get to challenge opposing crews in a skate-off to take over the territory. Just like its inspiration, you’ll skate around a sprawling metropolis, pulling tricks and spraying tags while avoiding the cops. The game was originally revealed by Team Reptile last summer.

In addition, the team revealed that you’ll also be able to traverse via skateboard.

Spiritual Jet Set Radio successor Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is coming to the Nintendo Switch, developer Team Reptile has announced.
