Hello, friends! I'm back for another round of news, memes, and entertainment. This is the Friday edition of Evening Reading!
And, because it's the weekend, go find yourself something to play!
It's the final game in The Jackbox Party Pack 9! Check out Quixort!
There's still more of the Chaos-Killing Game to be played, now featuring Bahamut.
We're pretty stoked for the upcoming Soulstice! Check out this latest look at the game and then read our preview.
Let's wrap up this feature with a new look at the making of the upcoming Minecraft Legends.

AT THE TIME, this was great. Then, like modern society and like Hollywood (especially Hollywood) tend to do, we played this out like a mother.
How about the time that it got shoehorned into the ending credits of The Nut Job? Remember that?
Or when we got a Star Wars parody! The hilarity!
Or when the Red M&M did THIS?
Or how about when THAT HAPPPENED?
Happy Birthday, Gangnam Style! I hope we can safely store it in the nostalgia vault now. (I'm so happy TikTok wasn't around when this craze blew up.)
Nothing but the Hotfix
Were you among those dazzled by SpikeVegeta's Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze run at Summer Games Done Quick? For this week's Hotfix, he's going to walk you through some of the basic speedrunning strategies and help get you started on your journey to being a DKC Tropical Freeze runner... or at the very least, he'll help teach you some strategies that can help you beat the game, period.
GDQ's Hotfix shows air every week and you can catch them all at the Games Done Quick Twitch account.
