It can sometimes be difficult to summarise the newest games to release on our beloved consoles, and Castle on the Coast, with its parkouring giraffe, magic castle and fantasy wonderland to explore doesn’t make it any easier!
We love Lonely Mountains: Downhill and we love the fact that the Thunderful and Megagon Industries teams have continued to keep it fresh with a host of DLC and multiple Seasons. Now though we get access to another free piece of content - Riley's Return.
When Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid rolled into view back in the early months of 2019, we felt it was lacking a little something. Thankfully the teams nWay and Lionsgate Games agreed with those sentiments as they've gone about filling things out ever since. Today they continue that push, with Rita Repulsa the latest to join the battle roster.
We say it every year, but next year looks to be damn hot. Much of that is due to the plethora of games being lined up to release on the various formats, with the totally over-the-top espionage driving madness of Agent Intercept being the latest to thrust itself into the limelight.
As you may or may not be aware, Pac-Man turned 40 years old in 2020. Well, it appears that the Pac-Party had only just got started, as now a new book has appeared on the market to celebrate the life and times of that most unlikely of video game hero - Pac-Man: Birth of an Icon.
If there’s one feather in the cap of Xbox, it’s that of Ori. Ori and the Blind Forest, and its sequel Ori and the Will of the Wisps, are some of the best platforming experiences that can be had in gaming, period. As such, it’s no surprise that others want to capitalise on this, and Greak: Memories of Azur have given it a good go. And it's that game which is now available on Xbox One and PS4.
Aluna: Sentinel of the Shards is quite enjoyable. It isn’t good enough to sit at the top table of the ARPG world, but can quite comfortably be found on the second tier. With better balancing through the game it would have been a contender, but the extreme difficulty spikes spoil the experience somewhat.
It's been a while since Dakar 18 tumbled onto the stores of Xbox, PlayStation and PC. But very soon there will be another option on the table - that of Dakar Desert Rally.
