The rugger’s back again this weekend for all us seasonal fans that basically just turn up for the Six Nations. There’s a potential title decider starting things off, a two-sided redemption quest up in Scotland, and we’ll see if Italy can break their one remaining duck in the competition tomorrow.
But we’re here for the gaming news and headlines of the week, and Nacon Connect gave us a good few game announcements.
In the News This Week
Games in Review & Featured Articles
We’re in the final stretch for our Split Fiction review, so might get that published this weekend, but aside from that, there were some highs and lows in the rest of our reviews:
Knights in Tight Spaces – PC – 9/10
Suikoden I&II HD Remaster Gate Rune & Dunan Unification Wars – PS5, XSX|S, PS4, XBO, NSW, PC – 8/10
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii – PS5, XSX|S, PC – 7/10
Pokémon TCG Pocket – iOS, Android – 7/10
Glover – PS5, XSX|S, PS4, XBO, NSW, PC – 4/10
And we had another controller on the review bench:
Away from the reviews, I’ve been checking out some great upcoming games. Rebellion’s Atomfall has certianly piqued a lot of interest, so we caught up with Art Director Ryan Greene to talk about its British nuclear disaster inspirations, and then went hands on with Atomfall to discover some mysteries for ourselves.
I also got to preview Blades of Fire, a new action adventure from Metroid Dread developer MercurySteam that’s bringing weapon forging and attacking nuance to the Soulslike form.
Rounding out the week, What We Played featured Split Fiction, Monster Hunter Wilds & Atomfall.
