Do I remember anything from December 2016? Heck no! It’s why I write things down! That month, Atlus teased its first full-scale fantasy RPG, Project ReFantasy. It slowly evolved into Metaphor: ReFantazio, which was officially unveiled during the Xbox Games Showcase 2023. This is a big game for Atlus and its new studio, Studio Zero, so since then information has…
Die. Gather. Craft. Survive. Die again. Unlock new stuff. And try it all over again. That’s the basic premise of An Ankou, where players will explore haunted lands and become a servant of death. The whole ushering people to the end thing was done really well with Spiritfarer (seriously, play…

Read MoreI’ve been hyped for The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood since it was announced. Matt’s preview of the game definitely fuelled that, but it also helps that it’s from the developer behind The Red Strings Club. There’s also a supernatural/occult/witchy element to it, which immediately draws me into just about anything. I’ve…

Read MoreThis Way Madness Lies, the magical girls RPG by the developer behind Cthulhu Saves the World and Cosmic Star Heroine, is set to launch for Nintendo Switch next year and PlayStation 5 later this year following a successful PC launch late last year. Here at DDNet, Matt gave the game…
Read MoreStrange Scaffold is a developer I can’t quite figure out. On one hand, it releases games like Sunshine Shuffle, a cutesy game that has cute animals playing cards on a boat (though it isn’t a adorable as it seems on the surface). On the other hand is El Paso, Elsewhere,…
Read MoreI’m a massive Survivor fan, though that’s a relatively recent occurrence (maybe five years ago) that began as a way to fill time between seasons of Big Brother. Still, I’ve seen all of the American seasons and most of the Australian seasons, and I’m set to start to Quebec version.…
Read MoreEver since the MCU, Thor has seemed basically exclusive to Marvel. It’s really nice to see the Norse god getting his time to shine without all the Marvel narrative getting in the way, getting back to the original mythology. The game, which features 16-bit graphics, focuses around using the mini-Mjölnir…
