Video by Matt S. It’s always a good week when new Atelier stuff launches. This time around it’s not completely “new”, as it’s the “deluxe” versions of the three Atelier Mysterious titles – Sophie, Firis and Lydie and Suelle – but two of those games arrive on the Nintendo Switch…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. It has been a tough time to be a fan of the Tales series. Where once Bandai Namco was reliably turning them out, things seemed to unravel a little with Tales of Arise, which has seemed like it was on the horizon forever and a day.…

Originally released on the PlayStation 2, this cel-shaded apocalypse-themed, hardcore JRPG was brutally challenging and also deeply intelligent, with one of the best soundtracks, art styles, and narratives of the genre. And now it’s back, and coming to…
