Europe and Australia will have to wait until next week, 23rd September (as per the game’s Discord, via HelloKittyIsland subreddit) , to get their hands on the expansion, which brings a newer Sanrio character to…
Z-A? What’s *that*? I rarely expect big Pokémon news during Nintendo Directs. Maybe an NSO drop (pffft), perhaps some details on the already-announced game coming out. I certainly did not anticipate my dream of becoming a Ditto who can transform into a human being to come true during the latest showcase. Okay, that’s obviously not…
Arriving on Switch next month. We’ve been keeping an eye on Absolum‘s roguelike / beat ’em up fusion since we first went hands-on with it earlier this year. Ahead of its launch on 9th October, publisher and co-developer Dotemu has today revealed a new gameplay trailer, and it looks every bit as stylish as we…

If we build them, they will run. Asobism’s tower defence/roguelite/factory sim title, ShapeHero Factory, releases on Switch 2 (and 1) today. Hooray! For anyone unfamiliar, this one sees you create an army of robots from a bunch of magical shapes within a factory setting, making for a sweat-inducing puzzle of sorts as you work to…
Zom-besties. Growing up, I absolutely loved MediEvil on the PS1. The spooky yet lighthearted aesthetic really spoke to me as a child and would ultimately help foster a lifelong passion for the horror genre. So when I saw trailers for Gloomy Eyes from developer Fishing Cactus, I was instantly enamoured with the Tim Burton-esque vibes….
Multiple genres in one easy-to-store package. Japanese dev outfit Sting has just announced Baroque YA, a collection of four games from the genre-spanning series, will release on Switch (in Japan only, for now) on 18th December.
