Gamers Galore! Upcoming and released games I have my sights on (and maybe you too)

Ok. Since we have a lot of games to go through, let's make it simple as I can. A couple of lines and some video game play footage if I can find it. But no spoilers.

So as we know, there are a lot of games coming out for consoles each. So let's take a look at some I have my eyes set on.

The Fractured But Whole: The Latest South Park game, it does change the battle system a lot and yet still uses the fake social media accounts to increase popularity and media franchising since this game parodies the structure of the Superhero mass marketing done as well as the usual insanity South Park delivers with Politics, General Culture, Yaoi, PC and those who enforce it, religion, etc. Oh and did I forget to mention the hilarious way the made the difficulty setting.

Cuphead: This game I was excited for the first time I saw this game. This is truly a great aesthetic they used for this game. I love the 1930's cartoons (Specifically it's more similar to Fleischer Studios' animation rather than Disney's earlier cartoons) look and despite being difficult (which can be quite welcoming for gaming, Look at Dark Souls) seems like a rewarding experience and my boyfriend has the game too. It's already out for PC and XBOX (sadly no PS ... hopefully it's just yet but I don't know. I kinda doubt it but we all want to have some fun.).

Kingdom Hearts III: Yes Ladies and Gentlemen, It's finally coming. I've been waiting for this as I got patient with all the damn rereleases of the old games but I'm happy that I did get the final mix games to add difficulty to the situation. And it did keep me on my toes a little but back to the game. This game will come for PS4 and XBOX so everyone, REJOICE! And now with the latest news of the following worlds coming to play: San Fransokyo of Big Hero Six, The Corona Kingdom of Tangled, Andy's Bedroom from Toy Story, original KH world Twilight Town, and Olympus Coliseum and Greece (Hercules), we have some good info and Intel on where the Seekers of Darkness wish to plan their dark plans. Also Sora gets some new abilities to summon attacks based on Disney Rides.

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux: This is another game that's been remade by Atlus since they have made a lot of remakes with remaking the Persona Series, The two Devil Summoner Games for 3DS, and with another game on our list not related to SMT, Strange Journey Redux is on my list due to never being able to play the game and its rarity at game stores. It seems the main pantheons with focus are Greek, Zoroastrian, and Christianity as usual but there is a new demon to possibly unlock and summon, Maria. Jesus' Mother will be involved in this plot so it's very exciting since only one game featured her and now she will get a spotlight along with Demeter, Zeus, Anahita, and Amon (all in new redesigned forms).

Radiant Historia (Perfect Chronology): I haven't played this game enough the first time due to the remake coming but it's in the RPG Style so It's something I personally enjoy. Also, unlike the first game, there will be animated cutscenes and voice acting for the game. However, if you don't like the new design you can go for the old designs for the characters. It's a nice game aesthetic choice for those who are old fans of the games. I just wish they kept that for Strange Journey for the looks of some of the character designs.

Ni no Kuni 2 (Revenant Kingdom): This is the awaited sequel of Ni no Kuni but follows its own story which I like. Like most JRPGs, they often are in similar worlds with different casts but have similarities with the other characters. This story focuses on King Evan who wants to reclaim his own kingdom from the Mouse tribe as far as we know. And it looks like they changed the mechanics of the battle system. Instead of using familiars, a la Pokemon and SMT, you must instead rely on spirits to help fight in battle. Also returning to this game are the wonderful animation team of Studio Ghibli and composer Joe Hisaishi.

The Wolf Among Us: Season 2: I loved watching The Wolf Among Us. The best part about this game is that you could watch people play this game and it would still feel like a film. It's a film neo noir inspired story based on the Fables comic strip. Fables focuses on the lives and mysteries of our favorite fairy tale characters stuck in the real world. (Not Once Upon a Time!) Trust me, The Big Bad Wolf is the main focus as the main protagonist. A guy with no future. But the storyline was what made it so great and the morality matters choices made it extra important as you can be reformed or the Big Bad Asshole you always were. Bibgy, we know, wants to change but it's difficult for him. There is not much known but this annoucement trailer does seem promising. The story however, is separate from the comics and the first season.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night: This game is the spiritual Successor to Castlevania developed by leader Koji Igarashi. The Metroidvania style finally comes into 3D and boy does this game's look not only captures the nostalgia of Castlevania and the classic backtracking, which is scandalous in modern gaming, but it no doubt makes it look fun again and the add-ons with the horror monsters, Gothic Aesthetic, and the fact if you don't free yourself from a curse, you turn into a crystal adds to the mechanations of this game. Also listening to this segment of the music also captures classic Castlevania scenes in the mind.

Good Gaming!
