News ActRaiser Spiritual Successor SolSeraph Announced for PS4
Arrives very soon
Who here remembers ActRaiser? A game from early in the life of the SNES, it combined 2D side-scrolling action with top down city-building strategy.

E3 2019 From Software and George RR Martin's RPG Elden Ring Confirmed with First Trailer
