Bleach Rebirth of Souls Review – IGN
Although Bleach is the flashiest member of the shonen anime “big three,” standing shoulder to shoulder with mega-popular series like One Piece and Naruto, it has long suffered from middle child syndrome when it comes to arena fighter adaptations. Bleach Rebirth of Souls aims to break the cycle of run-of-the-mill anime fighters this series has…
Atomfall Review – A British Alt-History Mystery Worth Solving, Despite The Flaws
Atomfall marks Rebellion’s first new IP in years and is remarkably different from their Sniper Elite series which has been the studios main focus. Based around the very real Windscale nuclear disaster that occurred in England in 1957, Atomfall is a self-proclaimed action survival game that is at its best when it leaves out the…

Reviews Featuring ‘Ace Attorney Investigations Collection’, Plus New Releases and Sales – TouchArcade
Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for September 4th, 2024. The long summer has more or less come to an end. It was sometimes hot and uncomfortable, but we had some good times that are worth remembering. I’m a little older and a little wiser than I was at the start, and…
Wreckfest 2 early access is as stripped back as its bumperless bangers, but at least Bugbear’s bashing together a good chassis
My knees are inside the steering wheel. I think I can see the inside of my own arm. I’m not sure if my seat’s lower, or if the roof’s caved in so violently that it’s squashed my head down into my chest so far that I can probably taste my own intestines. My windscreen replaced…
Game Genres Are Completely Meaningless, And It’s All Your Fault
Genres are broken. Broken, I argue, beyond repair. We need to crumple them up and throw them all away. This Brutal Gothic Metroidvania Is Shaping up To Be Something Special Genres always were broken, of course. They are, as with any other form of human-invented categorization, arbitrary. The notion of labeling any specific game as…
Severance Fans Are Divided By Season 2’s Finale For A Disappointing Reason
Severance fans have had a weekend to let the season finale of Apple TV’s dystopian workplace thriller sink in, and some are not handling it well. Make no mistake, “Cold Harbor” was a thrilling hour and change of television that ended the season on an incredible note. Some might argue it could have served as…
How To Survive Ninja Gaiden 2 Black
As we are all aware, the purpose of a ninja is to flip out and kill people. Nobody does this better than Ryu Hayabusa, which is why when demons want to take over the planet, they have to send, conservatively, 780,000 of them to try and stop him. Now, nobody’s saying Ryu isn’t capable–he is…
25 Assassin’s Creed Shadows Tips To Check Out Before Playing
Assassin’s Creed Shadows, out now, is a very good entry in Ubisoft’s long-running franchise. But it’s also a big, complicated game with a lot of different mechanics, systems, features, and options. And Shadows doesn’t always do a great job of explaining how all of this stuff works. The Week In Games: What’s Coming Out Beyond…
Alan Wake 2 Devs Designed Their Multiplayer Shooter For People With Kids And Jobs
Games from Remedy Entertainment—like Alan Wake 2, Control, and Max Payne—tend to be single player, third-person, linear adventures with cutscenes, lots of dialogue, and endings. FBC: Firebreak isn’t like those past games at all. And while it might disappoint some Remedy fans, I’m excited to see the studio doing something so different. Is Alan Wake…
