We first wrote about this game in 2024 when Nanbu Works revealed Yoshimi Kudo would be composing the music. Since then, they’ve also brought on Kuen, the illustrator behind Urban Myth Dissolution Center, to design the game’s user interface and items.
This game is a roguelike RPG, meaning each playthrough is a unique run. You’ll choose one of eight characters, including Towa, and navigate through a series of rooms that change with each attempt. At the end of each run, you’ll face a boss. As you explore, you’ll find random power-ups called ‘Graces’ that boost your damage and add different effects to your combat. If you’re familiar with action roguelikes, you’ll quickly understand how it works.
Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree is a game for the Nintendo Switch, and it will also work on the new Nintendo Switch 2 because of backwards compatibility. According to Bandai Namco, the game runs at a maximum of 30 frames per second on the Switch, whether played on a TV or in handheld mode. It supports up to 1080p resolution when docked and 720p in handheld mode. These limitations carry over to the Switch 2, but the new console offers two benefits: a more consistent frame rate and quicker loading times.
Valorant, like many online multiplayer games, has struggled with players who create new accounts – often by buying or borrowing them – to play against less experienced players. These players, known as ‘smurfs,’ intentionally try to dominate matches because of their skill advantage.
Okay, so I’ve been playing this game called Marvel Cosmic Invasion, and it’s a classic side-scrolling beat-’em-up. You get to choose from fifteen different Marvel heroes, and the story is all about stopping Annihilus and his army from taking over. The coolest part? You can switch between two heroes *right in the middle* of a fight, which is awesome for combos and just keeping things interesting!
We’re thrilled to welcome everyone to San Vansterdam! Thanks for bearing with us while we work to handle the high demand. Keep enjoying the game, and we’ll see you in the virtual world!
At the start of the game, Arjay helps us learn the ropes and shows us how to use our weapons. He’s our initial guide, teaching us everything before Claptrap takes over. He’s a big fan of Vault Hunters! Unfortunately, we’re quickly captured by the main villain, the Timekeeper. Arjay bravely sacrifices himself to save us, allowing us to escape – and marking the true beginning of our adventure. Or so it seems… is Arjay’s story really over?
Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds has three main ways to play offline. You’ll likely be familiar with Grand Prix and Time Trials – they’re classic racing modes. The third, Race Park, is a bit different, and we’ll cover that shortly. Most players will begin with Grand Prix, which features seven different series to complete. Each series has three races, followed by a final race that combines elements from the previous tracks.
Despite the issues it’s faced, the game console quickly attracted 2 million players in its first three days. The developers have since released several updates, including one that surprisingly allows players to eliminate teammates without consequence. However, the biggest problem that needs fixing isn’t the AI-created content within the game – it’s the core artificial intelligence itself.
In *Sonic Racing*, races typically consist of three tracks. You race the first and third tracks on a chosen map, but the second track takes you to a special dimension called a “crossworld.” These crossworlds are unique tracks that add variety to the races. The player in first place usually gets to choose which crossworld to visit, or they can select a random one. While most races follow this pattern, the game also lets you play every round on a different track. Crossworlds can also include extra challenges, and you can even switch between the main tracks during a race.
