Company: FromSoftware
Just a few hours out from release, FROM and Bandai pull the hypetrain into the station with the Armored Core VI overview trailer. Let’s gooooo!
With only four days left, From and Bandai have given us the official launch trailer for Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon.
Between Baldur’s Gate, this and Starfield shortly thereafter, we’re truly spoiled for choice!
A new Armored Core IV showcase from Bandai Namco and FromSoftware revealed new lore, gameplay and offered a first glimpse of its PVP Online Mode.
Armored Core IV launches August 25 (next week!) - can’t wait.
So masterfully crafted, creative, confident and bold that it immediately makes the rest of the openworld genre feel dated and uninspired. A landmark achievement and a very special game. Masterpiece.
The latest game by FROM is just as challenging as its predecessors, while taking things in a different direction: combat is more demanding, the world is more vertical & platformy. Extremely good.
A somewhat underwhelming remaster of one of the best videogames ever made. Not bad by any means, but probably deserved a full remake - if anything at all. If it’s the only copy you can get your hands on, it’s still incredible.
All of the learnings from DS through BB are here, and as a final instalment to the franchise is a remarkably rounded love letter to its fans. Almost certainly the most accessible Souls game.
Takes all the best foundations from Souls and dials up the speed & aggression. Absolutely inspired and masterfully pulled off. Incredible setting, world design, story and of course combat. Masterpiece, close to perfection.
A good game, but not a great Souls game. While there are some mechanical improvements, Dark Souls II is the buffet to it’s predecessors fine dining: lots of content, but none of it very good.
A project handed to a junior employee, who then crafted it into an uncompromising lesson in perseverance that rewards exploration and subverts expectations. Bleak, brutal and beautiful. Pretty much perfect - Dark Souls legacy & impact cannot be overstated.
