A Gran-d old time
An action RPG with an emphasis on action, Granblue Fantasy: Relink is based on hit mobile title Granblue Fantasy.

Hands On Suicide Squad Takes a Lot of Getting Used to, and It May Not Be Worth It
Our thoughts after three hours of play
If making you feel like a speedrunner was Rocksteady's intention as it put together the opening hours of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, then it at least nailed that aspect. Forcing one slapdash mission after another onto your HUD, the story introduction is told at such a breakneck pace that it can be...

Review Persona 3 Reload (PS5) - A Stunning Remake of a Classic RPG, Polished to Near Perfection
Brilliant in blue
It's difficult to replay older Persona games after Persona 5. They still tell engrossing character-driven stories, but with Persona 5 — and Persona 5 Royal in particular — Atlus evolved the series' core gameplay loop to such an extent that previous titles can feel clunky and monotonous by comparison. And so we have Persona 3...

News Suicide Squad's Live-Service Content Isn't Designed to Take Over Your Life
It's not another "life commitment"
