Merge & Blade is a mash-up that couldn’t, shouldn’t work, but Steam reviews say otherwise. It’s sitting on Mostly Positive, indicating that the hybrid game-type might just work. And now it's on Xbox.
Tetris is loved the world over whilst Dark Souls has gained such a reputation that it will forever be feared by many. So what happens when you create a game that plays on elements from both games? Well, you get Loot River and right now the workings of how the isle-shifting roguelike will play out have been revealed.
You might not want to mix the already brilliant Tetris with any other ideas, but if you do, we reckon Jenga is a good call. And that makes Trenga Unlimited instantly appealing.
It's simple really - transform the world, find loot, and battle through a waterlogged labyrinth. Pretty much everyday occurrences. Or at least it will be when the island-shifting action-roguelike Loot River drops on to Xbox and PC. And yes, it does seem to be as nuts as it sounds.
Combining the might of Puyo Puyo and the worldwide draw of Tetris, when the imaginatively names Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 released on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch back in 2020, it was obvious there would be interest. It worked too, mixing up the two worlds as one. Since that time though SEGA have continually improved the product with free updates that have brought a number of enhancements. And that's what is happening again now, it's just this time around we're witnessing the roll out of the third, and final, free content update.
It was just a few weeks back that SEGA threw out the first free update for Puyo Puyo Tetris 2 on Xbox, Playstation and Switch. Now though, as a celebration of Puyo Day, we find the second free update drop - and yet again a whole host of new content is included within.
