As one of the most acclaimed games of last year, Persona 5 took our hearts with its stylish visuals and deep JRPG mechanics, and now it appears that those that either want to head back to its Japanese high school charms (or dive in for the first time) can look forward to the upcoming Persona 5 R.

Both Monster Hunter: World and the Assassin’s Creed franchise as a whole have a case of crossover fever, so it was inevitable that these two would cross at some point.

While Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls are the titles that truly put FromSoftware on the map, the developer was around for over two decades before that. During this pre-Souls time, one of the Japanese developer’s most notable series was King’s Field. That being said, the series hasn’t seen a new release since King’s Field: Additional II for
It’s been 14 years since the King of All Cosmos destroyed all of the stars and moon in his drunken stupor. More importantly, it’s been that long since The Prince of All Cosmos came down with a Katamari to roll everything on Earth up (and I mean everything) to rebuild the moon and stars for

It’s very common within the gaming industry for larger developers to have multiple projects in development at the same time. FromSoftware, a developer best known for its work on the Dark Souls series, Bloodborne, and the upcoming Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, is no different. Apparently, the popular Japanese developer has two unannounced projects in development.
After making my way through the main campaign of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Hearts of Stone is the first expansion that introduces a new questline centering on Olgierd von Everec, an immortal who has come into conflict with the enigmatic Gaunter O’Dimm. Geralt is dragged between the two powerful figures not of his own will and has
The holiday season can be a bit overbearing at times. Rushing from store to store to secure the perfect gift, preparing enormous meals, and scheduling to meet up with practically everyone you’ve ever crossed paths with be a daunting and exhausting task. Sometimes, it’s nice to receive a little gift along the way, and this
FromSoftware’s most recent release was that of Déraciné, a VR adventure game that was a far cry from the other action titles that the studio has become synonymous with.

Days Gone, SIE Bend Studio’s upcoming game, is well known to be Sony’s next major single-player only title.
