Hi everyone and Happy New Year! The new DF Direct Weekly is now available for early access, but funnily enough it won't be the first DF Direct to go live publicly. That'll be a 30 minute mini-special dedicated exclusively to the PlayStationVR 2 specs reveal... which due to technical issues we had to reshoot this morning and that'll be going live publicly on Monday ahead of this weekly! We'll see about early access to the PSVR2 video tomorrow, but in the meantime, please do enjoy this one!

Looking for a DF Direct Weekly RSS feed access for early access? please ignore any links within Patreon itself, access this link, provide your Patreon credentials and you should be good to go: https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/593963
