Another PAX East has come to an end and all of us are very tired. But nevertheless, we escaped the show floor and took some time to each individually talk about the games that made the biggest impressions on us. Each of our staff writers in attendance got to play a wide variety of games
In a lot of ways, the roguelike genre’s core elements are almost the antithesis of what Double Fine’s past games have been known for. A focus on storytelling, memorable characters, and meticulously designed levels above all else is what has made titles like Psychonauts, Brutal Legend, and Grim Fandango Remastered beloved by so many fans. Roguelikes, on the
Atlus revealed today that besides the Persona 5 The Royal announcement on April 24, “1 More” announcement is coming on April 25, about a certain Persona 5 S.

Rage 2 is an open-world shooter with RPG elements, tons of unique weapons, a vibrant (and violent) world, and big explosions. Surely, to perform at the same level as other id Software games like DOOM or Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, the hardware has to be capable of doing so, which does not seem to
I have played my fair share of fighting games in my life. Admittedly though, that “fair share” hardly deviates from the known quantities. I’m talking about the numerous Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, and Tekken games that have graced our consoles for years. Sometimes I’ll get crazy and check out something like Guilty Gear Xrd Rev
Borderlands 3 was finally announced last week by Gearbox Software at PAX East and while the game’s debut trailer got many fans excited, it most notably was still lacking information about a potential release date for the title.

That being said, the company has been attempting to refocus itself recently, and will even be releasing several collections of titles from many of their classic series like Contra and Castlevania later this year. To continue this self-described “change and
The concept of being stuck in another world, but with Idols. This is the idea that The Caligula Effect: Overdose throws at you from the start, and uses it to tell a somewhat confusing story. With strong gameplay elements and interesting character designs, it’s an unbalanced title due to the lackluster environments and forgetful story
While we’ve seen the Rabbids fighting for a “kingdom” before in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Ubisoft has decided to take that goal a literally today with for an April Fools’ Day event.

Spring is a very special season in Japanese culture, representing renewal. It’s when the school year starts, in April, and it’s also the season of mass hiring for most Japanese companies.

According to eagle-eyed Twitter user SomeKidNick, the release window for Persona 5 hero Joker as a fighter in Super Smash Bros.

Since Netflix announced they were turning The Witcher into a series, they’ve been stingy with juicy details on the shows progress.

PC preferring fans of the Yakuza series can rejoice — Yakuza Kiwami 2 seems to have been listed for PC release by an official content rating from the ESRB. While the content rating itself is worth a look-through, just to get an idea of what a game like this looks like to people not fully invested

One goal I had this weekend at PAX East was to make my wife jealous by playing her most anticipated game this year—Vacation Simulator. She is a huge fan of Owlchemy Lab’s Job Simulator and begged me for months to buy it on PSVR. She’d just play the demo on the PSVR demo disc until
