Persona 5 Royal is as close to the perfect RPG as I have played in a long time. Not since the heady days of Final Fantasy VII will a game grip you so fiercely, refusing to let go. It is deep, it is beautiful and it demands to be played.Â
The highly praised Let’s Build a Zoo has set up shop on console after a successful release on PC. It’s also arrived with dino-filled downloadable content in the form of Dinosaur Island as an added bonus, but does the entire package live up to the hype?Â
We’re still thinking about OPUS: Echo of Starsong - Full Bloom Edition. It’s a game that dares to be many things at once - a visual novel, a space exploration sim and a tomb-raiding adventure - and then, even more audaciously, manages to master them all.
What has been created in Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course is beautiful to behold, the right side (just) of frustratingly hard, and will keep you playing for a while, all as you spend time with Ms. Chalice and work with the new weapons.
It's the narrative that makes Omori something special. Subtlety is an important part of good storytelling because it makes you think and it makes you want to talk about it.
