Anime-themed arena brawlers have generally become a bad joke in the console space, largely due to their lazy adaptation of the source material and overall low quality.
Hallelujah, praise the anime gods! Hunter x Hunter Nen x Impact is a manga adaptation that’s not your average arena brawler, but instead an actual fighting game. Not only that but publisher Bushiroad has recruited Marvel vs Capcom 3 dev Eighting to transform the oft-on-hiatus shonen story into a three-on-three...
While the world waits patiently for GTA 6, it seems smaller developers have started to turn to the origins of Rockstar’s open world juggernaut for inspiration.
Where its predecessor largely focused on DarkStalkers – including a couple of titles which never released outside of Japan – Capcom Fighting Collection 2 mostly turns its attention to SEGA’s infamous NAOMI arcade board, so we’re looking at a compilation of mostly Dreamcast-era brawlers here.
Little Kitty, Big City is the latest in an expanding litter of animal-themed sandbox games. Much like Goat Simulator 3 or Untitled Goose Game, this is a cosy game with vague objectives and no real consequences if you make a mistake.
SNK, once on the brink of bankruptcy, is back with a marketing budget that would make genre titans Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat blush.
It’s hard not to get jaded when reviewing annual sports games like MLB The Show 25 year in and year out.

The long-running Nikki series – not to be confused with Stellar Blade dev Shift Up’s saucy mobile shooter NIKKE: Goddess of Victory – has been styling smartphones across various iterations for several years. This version, available on console for the first time and introducing an enormous whimsical open world, is...
Slitterhead – directed by Japan Studio veteran Keiichiro Toyama – feels like a spiritual successor to Siren, Gravity Rush, and Soul Sacrifice all at the same time. This inventive, unusual survival horror is far from perfect, with inconsistent visuals, repetition, and some unrefined gameplay systems. But if you’ve been lamenting...
Dutch developer Guerrilla seemingly achieved the impossible with Horizon Zero Dawn. After a decade slaving away over first-person shooter series Killzone, the studio effectively retooled itself as a maker of open world RPGs, and sold tens of millions of copies in the process. The intellectual property has since seen the...
