Next month, Star Wars: Outlaws comes out. I’m a huge Star Wars fan and so of course I’m looking forward to the game! I thought it was time that I went a little more in-depth about why I’m looking forward to the game so much. Star Wars games have dealt with jedis, rebels, and of course bounty hunters but I don’t think they’ve ever dealt with outlaws before. The upcoming Star Wars Outlaws stars a scoundrel named Kay Vess as…

Read MoreDoes Anybody Care About Beyond Good and Evil 2?
I loved Beyond Good and Evil and I’m glad the original is getting a decent modern re-release. It comes with a new mission tied to the long-promised sequel, and I’m wondering at this point what that could possibly mean. The original game was not a commercial success. Quite famously so. It sold less than 300,000 copies in the US, and it took price cuts of up to 80 percent to get there. Quick searching shows official mention of a sequel…
Read MoreVisions of Mana Launch Date Trailer
Visions of Mana is the upcoming return of the Mana series by Square Enix. Today a launch date trailer was released for the game. Check it out along with our thoughts on the game. Visions of Mana will be coming out on August 29th, 2024. The game is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. It looks like an absolutely incredible game. I love the graphics, which looks slightly cel-shaded especially with the characters. The action combat looks…
Read MoreSummer Game Fest Isn’t E3 – And That’s Okay
The Summer Game Fest has come and gone to mark the semi-official start of the season’s Not-E3 celebrations. And yet this year, more than ever, we can see that it’s not the E3 replacement perhaps everybody wants it to be. That should be okay. That is to say, there a place for a smaller “hyped” event that can explore a variety of smaller games alongside a few bigger announcements. And while that might not seem like a controversial opinion, for…
Read MoreTerminal 81 Impressions
Terminal 81 takes you on a haunting journey through the crime-ridden streets of Terminal 81, a fictionalized São Paulo neighborhood in 2008. You step into the shoes of Lorena, a recent arrival struggling to make ends meet amidst a harsh economic climate. As a string of kidnappings throws the community into fear, you’ll find yourself not just trying to survive, but also unraveling the dark secrets lurking beneath the surface. The game’s greatest strength lies in its ability to create…
Read MoreAstrobot and Dynasty Warriors: The Welcome Return of Fun
While the State of Play was an underwhelming start to the Summer games news blowout, there was at least one major bright spot. Astrobot and Dynasty Warriors mark another welcome return to mainstream fun. That’s not something to take for granted. The actual prioritisation of entertainment over production values or spectacle is something that rarely comes along. And while Dynasty Warriors was edging a little closer to edge than I’d have traditionally liked, that series represents the purest of video…

Read MoreKingdom Hearts On Steam is Massive
I woke up this morning to perhaps the most important low-key video game news of the year. The Kingdom Hearts series is finally hitting Steam. Those not in the know might shrug their shoulders at this news. There’s a good chance that most people in the know won’t give a damn. A hodge-podge of PS2, PS4, PSP and 3DS games reaching an app on a platform they were already available on? Yawn, right? Wrong. This signals a change in priorities…
Read MoreNot-E3 is Nearly Upon Us – Here’s What We Need
It’s nearly that time of year when – for a week or two – there’s actual game news. And this not-E3 might be the most important yet. Since the actual E3 died a death, publishers have collectively decided that June is still a good time to share your big marketing push for the coming year and beyond. And while I miss the organisation, pomp and cringe of the proper show, what we’ve got now is still better than the nothing…
