I am positively giddy that I can share this news: Playground Games’…
Trinity Trigger is being published by FuRyu in Japan in two weeks, but until now there’s been no confirmation that the action RPG would be coming west. XSEED Games has announced that it will be bringing Trinity Trigger west in “early” 2023.…
Read MoreAlmost a decade ago, Sony published The Last Of Us on PlayStation 3. The sheer hyperbole that the game got was, in retrospect, silly. Empire even went as far as to say that the very cinematic game was comparable to Citizen Kane. Of course, since then, Sony alone has published…
Read MoreARGH! Argh, argh, argh, arghhhhhhhhhh! Dusk Diver 2 is so frustrating. So utterly, cruelly frustrating. Somehow this sequel is even more frustrating than its predecessor. I can see what the developer wanted to achieve with it, and I appreciate it on so many levels. It just doesn’t come together in…

Read MoreFirst announced at this year’s Wholesome Direct (our recap here), Kaichu – The Kaiju Dating Sim is about helping a 100-meter tall, radioactive dinosaur find true love. One can only imagine how difficult that would be! The lighthearted cartoon-styled monster-loving romantic romp is just about ready for its release, and…
Read MoreReleasing a “Soulslike” in the same year as Elden Ring is, I would argue, unwise. You’re never going to come off well in that comparison and it’s only going to result in your game being judged more harshly than it deserves to be. In that context, Thymesia really should have…
Read MoreAfter all these years, I still cannot get over how freaking adorable Nep-Nep and all her friends are. Not only that, they’re pretty darned strong! Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters is a story about finding hope in despair, and rebirth in the wake of destruction. I’ve had my eye on it…
