KOEI TECMO and developer Gust invite us to explore the Kingdom of Fiore in Fairy Tail 2, already available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Here is our gameplay video captured on PlayStation 5.

Although 2024 may not have been a kind year for many reasons, it did have the merit of delivering several top-class JRPGs. Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is one of them, and if you haven't had a chance to check out the visuals, our gameplay video of the PS5 version should give you some answers.

If you missed the Like a Dragon Direct devoted to Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and broadcast by SEGA and RGG Studio, a catch-up session is available on Youtube. The video takes a close look at the game's environments, as well as a detailed look at the combat systems (both on land and at sea), ship customisation, crew management and more. The New Game+ mode, which will arrive in a free update after the game's release, was also announced. Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will be released on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Steam on 21 February.

Atomfall is the type of game that makes you want to know more and that's how we've felt ever since it was announced. A new video has just been released and it makes us even more eager to play Rebellion's new IP. The game is supposed is to be released on March 27 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S so we hope it will ne be delayed, and more importantly, that it will meet our expectations.

Boti: Byteland Overclocked is a nice little platformer we covered a bit more than a year ago when it came out on PC. The game is rather short when you only focus on the main story (don't expect more than 4 hours) but this console version include all 4 DLCs released so far. If you take care of all the optional content and play as the completionist you are, it should take you around 10 hours to see and do everything. Note that there is local and online co-op available, which is always nice. As for graphics modes, we recommend the one favoring performance as the resolution mode runs at 30 fps and it doesn't feel that great to us.

Even though the political and social context remains very fragile worldwide, let alone the video games industry itself, as it has been suffering greatly for a few years now, let us resort to a form of comforting optimism to wish you the best for 2025, in your personal, professional, and of course, virtual life. This new year should be very interesting in terms of games, so we should be able to provide you with regular quality content, and with the "incoming" release of the new Nintendo console, we'll soon all be able to get our hands on new hardware, which is always very exciting. We will do our best to cover as many games and machines as possible since we are lucky enough to be able to continue the -yde adventure by your side. Once again, we want to warmly thank the small community of loyal followers who still give us the courage to achieve all this on our free time. We will not lie to you by telling you that the task is easy, or by denying the moments when we sometimes feel a hint of discouragement, but as long as we are passionate enough to continue, we will keep doing what we do best, which is to give you access to free HQ videos. Feel free to share your desires regarding the content that we could offer you in the future, don't hesitate to talk about the website around you as we could use a bit more traffic, but above all, stay true to who you are, the most respectable and open-minded community on the web. Keep respecting others and their opinions and never stop sharing with others around you what has brought us together here for more than twenty years: the fun of playing video games of all sorts. Happy New Year 2025 and be well and healthy!

Well, unless you're not home alone for Christmas that is... Alien: Rogue Incursion came out on December 19 but because of the holiday season, we haven't been able to propose any video coverage until now. Inside, you will find a video showing the very beginning of the adventure on Playstation VR2, but don't be fooled by the scarce presence of xenomorphs in the opening section of the game. They will indeed become more and more visible as you progress into the story, so it is clearly more action-oriented than Isolation was. It's still a very immersive experience and though the graphics aren't the best out there, the lighting and smoke effects make the visuals pretty atmospheric and the game faithful to the movie franchise. As far as we can tell, there are no visual enhancements on Playstation 5 Pro, which is a shame when you consider that a game like Subside (developed by one person only) does take advantage of the new hardware, but who knows if Survios will propose a Pro update in the future.

It is thankfully rare but sometimes we get games long after their original release. That's what happened with Sonic X Shadow Generations that we were sent more than a month after it came out, at a time when we had so many games to take care of it was just impossible to give SEGA's new Sonic title some video coverage. Now we're finally on a short break for the Christmas holiday, we can finally give you a glimpse of this remaster X DLC.

It may be December 25th but there is no rest for Kunos Simulazioni and 505 games as they sent us a new video for the upcoming Assetto Corsa Evo, the third installment in the now famous sim-racing franchise. The game will hit early access on January 16 2025 so PC players must be looking forward to its release.

Because we're going to take a short break this holiday season, we wanted to wish you all a merry Christmas with your family and/or friends. Enjoy your time with your loved ones as it is without a doubt the most precious gift of all. Be reasonable with what you eat and drink this week, so you're in good shape for 2025 and all the promising games that are coming.
