Weekly Gaming Recap - July 28th, 2023
Armored Core VI hands on preview for the sweats, Disney Illusion Island Review for the Cozy Gamers, and a whole lot of RPG goodies!
Get in the Mech Malenia
Last year FromSoftware released a groundbreaking open world fantasy RPG that went on to win hundreds of Game of the Year awards (from us too) and become a massive commercial success. Next month, their next game releases and we’ve got all you need to know about it because this week, staff writer Erren Van Duine’s hands on preview for Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon went live.
Is this a game for Souls fans? For mecha anime fans? For anyone that loves watching giant metal robots reduce each-other to atoms? You can find the answers to some of this in her preview.
This Week’s Low Poly
Late last week at San Diego Comic Con we got a brand new look at Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 with a new story trailer. This week I decided to look at the prospects of insomniac’s 3rd Spider-Man game being able to break the 88/100 Metacritic ceiling the franchise has faced in the past.
Disney’s Illusion Island Review
Ever want to introduce someone you love into metroidvanias but find both Metroid and Castlevania a bit too challenging for a beginner? Well, maybe consider Disney’s Illusion Island. In Senior Content Manager Andrew Stretch’s review, he praises the game’s art, versatility of abilities, and details how this combat-less adventure may be a good pick up!
