Given its vast PS2-era catalogue, Atlus’ decision to revive Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army is a bit of a strange one. Something of an experimental foray into the realm of action RPGs, it’s not necessarily a game that springs to mind when looking back on the developer’s most prolific console generation.

The Warner Bros.-produced cartoon ran from 1993 to 1998 and received well over 250 episodes. And, you can bet there were many video games out there to accompany Yakko, Wakko, and Dot’s animated antics. In fact, there were nine different games between the SNES and DS eras, in fact, but a tenth, long-lost one has recently been rediscovered and preserved online (thanks, Time Extension!); Animaniacs: Hollywood Hypnotics, which is now fully preserved and playable online thanks…

One of the most contentious parts of Overwatch 2 may just be something that players have not so lovingly named Counterwatch. It’s the act of swapping heroes mid-fight to counter strong enemies, and it can be enough to send some players into a swirling rage. It’s pretty fundamental to Overwatch 2, but for Stadium it’s a different story.”No hero swapping has been one of the core foundational pillars of the mode since day one, like since we started prototyping it,” senior game designer Dylan Snyder tells me. “Part of that is because of how difficult it is to kind of…

Screenshot: Bethesda / Brandon Morgan / KotakuIf you genuinely need someplace to stay in real life, I’m afraid I can’t help you. But I can point you toward a free castle in Cyrodiil’s idyllic north country. It’s currently under siege by the finest marauders, clad in Orcish, Elven, and Daedric armor, spitting vitriol at the few steel-clad knights left within to defend its poor, crumbling walls. Honestly, it’s quite the scene. Oh, and that backyard. Wow! If you’re willing to invest the time, the Fighters’ Stronghold in Oblivion Remastered is the perfect forever home for a stalwart adventurer like yourself!…
