The North American release date for the latest in the much-loved Mario & Luigi series has finally been revealed. Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam will arrive on January 22nd, 2016 for the 3DS, which is quite a bit earlier than its initial Spring 2016 release date.
The Legend Of Heroes: Trails In The Sky SC is a game that has been a long time coming for English-speaking gamers. The Trails In The Sky trilogy was originally released in Japan from 2004 to 2008 for both PSP and Microsoft Windows. Due to the series’ large size, the localisation process for other territories has been a painfully slow process. The game’s first chapter finally hit North America in 2011, and now, after another four years, the JRPG adventures gets to continue.
The city-builder is a genre that thrives on addictiveness. If you’re a fan, you may well know the level of satisfaction that comes from slowly building up a thriving metropolis from a bare patch of land. It’s like planting a small seed in your garden, and then, through lots of persistence and tender nurturing, watching it grow into a magnificent, majestic tree.
Anno 2205, the latest in Ubisoft Blue Byte’s city-building and economic simulation series, allows you to grow a very fine tree indeed.

Void & Meddler is a cyberpunk, point and click adventure game by French developers NO cvt. The game follows Fyn, a morose nightclub DJ with no memory of the past two years, who seeks to make sense of her life by looking for ‘pure’ memories in a synthetic future.

Today marked the end of an agonisingly long wait for JRPG fans. The second installment of The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky series was released, with the Second Chapter being made available digitally on the PlayStation Store for PSP in North America, and on Windows PC for everywhere else.
The Park is billed as a first-person, psychological horror game, coming out just in time for Halloween. The story focuses on young mother Lorraine, who has just spent the day at Atlantic Island Park, a run-down family amusement park, with her son, Callum. They apparently seem to be the last two to leave for the day, as the place is completely deserted. As Callum suddenly darts back into the park unaccompanied in search of a lost toy, Lorraine must chase after him and track him down. As she does, darkness falls, and things become very creepy indeed. The dilapidated park becomes shrouded in grim misery as it becomes clear that a sinister force is occupying it along with Lorraine.
Kart racers are a staple of wholesome, family gaming; the Mario Kart series is proof enough of that. But what if the beloved mascots, who so frequently populate the genre, were replaced with violent, gun-toting pensioners hell-bent on saving their souls by rampaging through the town on their pimped up mobility scooters? Such is the premise of Coffin Dodgers.
