News Run a Cosy Convenience Store in Slice of Life Sim InKonbini, Coming to PS5
Self service
Working in a retail store seems like an under-explored setting for games, considering so many people do it.

News Cult Classic Shadows of the Damned Gets Hella Remastered for PS5, PS4
So long, Big Boner
Shadows Of The Damned launched during a fascinating part of the PS3 era, where EA suddenly started publishing smaller titles, like the equally iconic Alice: Madness Returns.

News Chrono Odyssey Is One of Those Korean MMOs That May or May Not Actually Exist
Here we Chrono again
By and large, Korean developers have a reputation for announcing wildly ambitious MMOs that rarely ever actually materialise.

News Looking for a New Metroidvania? Tales of Kenzera: ZAU Seems Fine on PS5

News Capcom's PS5 Action Game Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Continues to Show Promise
Lead the way
We're not betting on Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess to become one of Capcom's key properties, but the game continues to look pretty good in this new gameplay trailer. As previously reported, this is something of an action-strategy hybrid, in which you navigate intricate maps and deal with demonic threats as they attempt to overrun...

News REYNATIS Looks Like a Scruffy But Oddly Appealing PS5, PS4 Action RPG
Shibuya spirit
We can’t, in good faith, complain about the time it takes to make PS5 and PS4 games – and then turn around and criticise REYNATIS for looking a little sloppy.
