Play Pals is an ongoing Achievement Hunter comedic gameplay series featuring a duo of Achievement Hunter staff members, classified as "two best friends" playing some of the most "ridiculously silly games fans have never heard of". They are evidently seen being laid back and having a good natured fun time together because "they're pals".
Starring Team Nice Dynamite, the lab rats of Immersion and co-stars of the Laser Team franchise, Michael Jones and Gavin Free this is a series that debuted on May 8, 2014. In the series, they play a game together that is similar in style to How To, with it being shortened Let's Plays. There are also recurring secondary appearances from other AH employees such as Geoff Ramsey, Ryan Haywood, Jack Pattillo, Jeremy Dooley and formerly Ray Narvaez, Jr.
Despite its initial format of only Michael and Gavin starring, it has since been expanded so that any combination of two in Achievement Hunter can play.
New episodes originally were released every other Thursday interchanging with Rage Quit but now hold to an irregular schedule as of July 28, 2015.
