3 games, 3 words in their titles, <3 emote.
I know there are more RPGs coming out this month, but the concept of the RPG slithers and crawls through the entirety of video games over time like some sort of cosmic-horror infection. I cannot grasp it; enthralled as I am my understanding bleeds out at the same rate of the infection.
It’s spooky, I tells ya.
August 21 sees the release of the Class of Heroes 3 Remaster on the Switch and PS5. The games are first-person dungeon crawlers in the vein of Wizardry or Etrian Odyssey, but leaning towards EO‘s adorable designs.
Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar hits August 27 for the Switch and Switch 2. The entire game is on the Switch 2 card, because this is a thing we – as consumers – must now discuss for some absolute stupid reason. If you’ve played early Harvest Moon games and followed their switch to the Story of Seasons label then you know what to expect.
Graphically Final Fantasy XIII and XV while gameplay-wise Devil May Cry and Bayonetta; Lost Soul Aside does an inspiration slide into systems August 29. This action RPG’s story sends players to save your sister and the world.
In other weird news, the Final Fantasy Magic the Gathering crossover netted a ton of money in one day. So not only did FF/MtG fans eat well; parent company Hasbro did too.
Enjoy.
