News Underappreciated Action RPG Fate/Samurai Remnant Gets Its Final Slice of DLC This Week
Dynasty warrior
In this author's humble opinion, Fate/Samurai Remnant was one of the most overlooked titles of 2023 — and its post-launch support hasn't been bad, either. Its third and final slice of DLC has been named, and it arrives later this week, on the 20th July. It's another expansion of sorts, adding a new story chapter to the action...
News A New Dynasty Warriors Game Has Finally Been Announced... For Mobile
And it's basically Dynasty Warriors 9
It's been almost six years since the last mainline Dynasty Warriors game — and that was the disastrous Dynasty Warriors 9, which itself took a lengthy five years to arrive after Dynasty Warriors 8.

News Wild Hearts, Wo Long Were 'Successful', but Koei Tecmo Sidesteps Sales Numbers
All action, no traction?
Koei Tecmo has released two high profile action titles this year, with Wild Hearts in February, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty in March. Both games reviewed well, but at least from our perspective, it felt like they were brushed aside quite quickly in terms of the general gaming conversation. As such, we've been wondering how...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty?
Wo and behold
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty seems to have struck a chord with fans of tough action titles. The latest game from prolific Japanese developer Team Ninja, it's a bit of mix between Nioh (the loot, the combat pacing), Sekiro (the parries), and Dynasty Warriors (the battlefield morale system), and it's all based on epic Chinese novel Romance of...

The game's tantalising reveal trailer didn't make it completely obvious, but Team Ninja has confirmed that Rise of the Ronin is an open world action RPG. You'll be running, gliding, and horseback riding across 1863 Japan in a bid to restore order to a restless nation. "Here in this time of mayhem, you embody a...

News That Koei Tecmo Teaser Was for a New Horse Racing Game
Neigh way?
Koei Tecmo caused a little bit of a stir last week when it revealed a teaser website for a new game. Text on the site read "the fated battle begins", making us immediately think of properties like Samurai Warriors. We couldn't have been further from the mark, really. Visit that same teaser website now and you'll find two horses staring...

Street fighter
Wow, Miguel from Tekken has joined Dead or Alive 6 as a guest character!?
