Something for the Weekend – 24/06/23
It’s been another busy week in the world of gaming, with the legal battles around the Microsoft / Activision acquisition rumbling on, and the Nintendo Direct making lots of Switch owners happy. With that in mind, let’s dive in!
There was a clear winner from the reviews, with Nic writing that FF16 “might just be the best Final Fantasy yet!”
From the previews, Miguel ushered in the week giving us a glimpse of Eternights, a fast-paced JRPG taking inspiration from the Persona series. Steve had a busy week, sampling a bunch of games from Steam Next Fest and sharing his favourites.
Elsewhere, Stefan shared his thoughts on the co-op action RPG Atlas Fallen which looks great fun, before going hands on with Evercore Heroes. This MOBA-styled PvE game blends the best from both genres into matches that culminate in climactic boss battles.
Last up, What We Played included Final Fantasy 16, Aliens: Dark Descent & Pikmin.
Detective Pikachu Returns investigates his origins on Switch in October
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC revealed – The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero adds 230 monsters
