When Bravely Default first launched on the Nintendo 3DS back in 2014, it was a game that hooked me pretty quickly, and at the time, I was really looking for a great new RPG to jump into. It felt like a love letter to the golden era of turn-based JRPGs, yet it had enough modern ideas to keep things fresh. The chibi … Read More
Sonic fans were over the moon last year when it was revealed that Sonic Generations was getting the remaster treatment and coming out with brand new content focussed on everyone’s favourite anti-hero Shadow. Now with the launch of Nintendo’s newest console, last year’s release is now back yet again. The original Sonic Generations has always been one of those rare 3D Sonic … Read More
When Elden Ring: Nightreign was revealed at last year’s Game Awards, it came as a real shock. Not because FromSoftware had something new in the pipeline—everyone loves Elden Ring, but because of what it was. The trailer was cryptic, fast-paced, and oozing with dark energy. Familiar sights from Elden Ring twisted into something new. Three-player co-op? Roguelike structure? Pre-built characters? What even was this thing? I wasn’t … Read More
When Tookyo Games first announced they were working on multiple projects several years ago, I was immediately curious. But the one that stood out the most was the project that at the time was unnamed, but went on to become The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. It had that intangible something—a blend of ambition, mystery, and pedigree—that made it feel like … Read More
As someone who absolutely adored DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal, I went into DOOM: The Dark Ages with sky-high expectations. Those last two entries redefined what a first-person shooter could feel like—fast, frantic, brutally fluid. They threw you into the chaos with speed, power, and an arsenal that turned the battlefield into a ballet of bullets and blood. Plowing through hordes of demons was pure … Read More
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is the kind of game that reminds you why you fell in love with RPGs in the first place. It’s bold, imaginative, and refreshingly unconcerned with following the trends that dominate most big-budget titles today. Developed by the relatively unknown Sandfall Interactive—a team of approximately 30 people—this debut effort feels anything but small. From the moment … Read More
When Days Gone first launched back in 2019, it received a mixed reception, with many players wanting to love it more than they actually did. The promise was there—a gritty open-world survival game with emotional storytelling, dynamic weather, a unique motorcycle-centric traversal system, and massive, terrifying hordes of zombie-like Freakers. But the bugs, inconsistent AI, rough performance and pacing issues in the … Read More
It finally happened. After years of whispers, supposed leaks, and forum speculation, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is real—and it’s available now on PS5, Xbox and PC. Bethesda Game Studios, in collaboration with Virtuos, have brought this classic RPG back to life with a fresh coat of modern polish. For someone like me, who played the original religiously back in 2006, … Read More
It still feels a bit surreal saying this, but Xbox first-party titles are continuing to make their way to other platforms—and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle landing on PlayStation 5 is a big deal. This isn’t just any port; it’s a sign of the walls coming down a bit, making one of the best recent action-adventure games available to a much … Read More
Back in 2015, I picked up Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Wii U. Like a lot of JRPG fans at the time, I was drawn to its massive open world, deep systems, and ambitious scale. I had a blast with it, but to be honest, I never finished it. Life got in the way, and Xenoblade X was the kind of game you really … Read More
