When discussing Quest for the Gold Pen, it’s natural to compare it to the other Bluey video game. While that first game did a great job of recreating the show’s visual style, it wasn’t very exciting. It mostly consisted of simple games played around the Heeler house, connected by a basic story about a treasure map. It was sweet, but it didn’t quite capture the charm and creativity of the cartoon, and the gameplay itself wasn’t very engaging.

The official Final Fantasy X account recently announced that the Pixel Remaster series has reached a major sales milestone, expressing gratitude to fans for their support. Originally released in 2021, these retro RPGs initially received some criticism for their font choices. The series includes updated versions of the first six Final Fantasy games—from the original Final Fantasy on NES (1987) to Final Fantasy VI on SNES (1994)—with new features like auto-battle and updated user interfaces.

Let’s talk about the English localization. We got a chance to listen to the voice acting for the beginning of Rean and Kevin’s stories in Act II. Having not played a Trails game dubbed in English since the first Trails in the Sky, I’d say the dub quality seems really good so far! Sean Chiplock does a great job portraying a more mature Rean, adding a subtle roughness that suits his character arc in Beyond the Horizon. The rest of the voice cast is excellent as well; NIS America consistently delivers high-quality dubs for Falcom games, and this one appears to be no exception, though we’ve only heard a small portion of the game so far.

I initially experienced Assassin’s Creed Shadows on a console earlier this year, and unlike my usual habit, didn’t play it on my PC handheld devices. Now, with the new Nintendo Switch 2 version launching – which includes many updates and features exclusive to the Switch 2 – I’m reviewing the port and also testing how well the game performs on the Steam Deck. As a ‘Verified’ game, it has been specially optimized for that platform.

The System Shock remake on Nintendo Switch 2 offers enhanced features like Joy-Con 2 mouse compatibility and gyro aiming, all shaped by player feedback. You can find details in my interview with the developers at Nightdive here.
