We've been fans of the Xuan-Yuan Sword series at A-to-J ever since it got a TV drama adaptation back in 2012. The long-running Chinese RPG series has had little exposure in the West outside of the surprising English-language release of 2016's Xuan-Yuan Sword: The Gate of Firmament on Steam. Well, the wait for more Xuan-Yuan content is over as it was recently announced that the remake of Xuan-Yuan Sword: Mists Beyond the Mountains will also receive an English-language release very soon! Details and more about the game can be found below.

We are back, my people! Here in the hot seat is a game that has come back from the dead: Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed. Having been released all the way back in 2006 for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, Destroy All Humans! 2 is a step back in time to where controls could be either tanky or just alright. At the time THQ was doing very well, publishing a lot of licensed titles from franchises such as Teen Titans, Bratz, Avatar, and Spongebob, which the company often banked on in their release schedule. Then we got Destroy All Humans! 2 a year after the original. The sequel being of a larger scale than the original, there is more added story and side content. Does it add up to a potential remake years later? Is it even warranted to have a PS4 version come out after the next generation versions? I mean, it is only single player after all… Let’s see for ourselves in Destroy All Humans! 2: Reprobed (Single Player).

Alterium Shift is a retro-inspired JRPG that features 2.5D graphics and three unique branching routes to explore. It's currently in Early Access on Steam, and this means that the game is not exactly close to complete but close enough that I was able to get a review code for it. After spending the better part of the past week playing through it, I have a lot to say about it. The developers, Drattzy Games, is a small two-member team that have put together an RPG that wears its SNES-era JRPG inspirations on its sleeve, and serves up a world that has more than a few surprises for those who take the plunge. With that said, let's examine that very plunge and dive into Alterium Shift!

SOULVARS is an RPG with deckbuilding combat that recently hit consoles and PC after a successful launch on mobile last year. It topped the paid RPG charts, but did it handle the migration to dedicated gaming platforms gracefully? We were lucky enough to get a chance to play it on the Nintendo Switch and we're going to dive into the post-apocalyptic world where Dominators threaten humanity, and you're first in line to stop them.
