Nintendo Switch set to get a new Vampire: The Masquerade title that other consoles are not

June 4, 2019

News/Nintendo Switch/PC/Vampire the Masquerade/Vampire the Masquerade Coteries of New York

News by Matt S. Well, this is an interesting one; I would never have expected the Nintendo Switch to get a “console exclusive” third party game like one set in the Vampire: The Masquerade. It’s still releasing on PC, but if you want to play Vampire: The Masquerade Coteries of…

Review by Matt S. Jake Hunter is pretty popular in Japan, but the series is rarely localised into English. I haven’t played any of the handful that have been translated previously, but if the series is of the standard of Alternate Jake Hunter: Daedalus: The Awakening of Golden Jazz, then…

On this week’s episode, we have a talk about the surprise announcement that Kojima’s Death Stranging will release this year, in November. There was a new trailer for it, and Alan and Matt get into a bit of verbal fisticuffs over whether Kojima’s all he’s cracked up to be. We…

News by Matt S. We live in a world where the legendary Baldur’s Gate is a heartbeat away from being playable on Nintendo Switch (and the other two consoles – PlayStation 4 and Xbox One). I know Baldur’s Gate’s already on iPad but… a handheld console port of one of…

News by Matt S. Otomate is an Idea Factory brand that regular readers of DDNet should be pretty familiar with. It’s the visual novel brand that is “for women,” in that it produces games with harems full of gorgeous dudes for you to date and fall in love with. Of…

Review: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth

3DS/3DS Review/Atlus/dungeon crawler/Etrian Odyssey/JRPG/Nintendo/Persona 4/Persona 5/Persona Q2/Reviews/Sega

Review by Clark A. Atlus has been expanding the world of Persona in recent years with the likes of dancing and fighting game offshoots. It’s inspiring how well these spin-offs fare, translating the core appeal of revered narrative masterpieces like Persona 4 into contexts far removed from JRPG action. Of…

Review by Harvard L. I’m always excited when I hear a new mecha game is getting released. Although I’m not the most well versed in the anime genre, I know enough about the various official and unofficial attempts to translate Japan’s giant robots into an interactive medium. They’re almost always…

Video by Matt S. Kotodama: The 7 Mysteries of Fujisawa is a new visual novel/Match-3 puzzle game combination from PQube. And it is so, so good. Not just for the fanservice (though the fanservices is *really* good), but also because it has a great sense of humour, great character design,…

Review by Matt S. In Kotodama: The 7 Mysteries of Fujisawa you use your incredible powers of match-3 puzzling to strip a bunch of guys and girls down to their underwear. If that doesn’t sell you on the game, nothing will. Seriously. If seeing anime characters in amusing states of…
