Yoshitaka Murayama, known as the writer and director of the Konami RPG series Suikoden, has died. Murayama's death was reported by Rabbit & Bear Studios, which he founded in 2020. In a statement published Wednesday, Rabbit & Bear said he passed away on February 6 due to complications arising from an «ongoing illness.»
Palworld is 2024's first surprise hit, combining all the familiar elements of the popular survival genre with an irresistible layer of Pokémon-inspired Pals to do your bidding. It's a game with no firm endpoint but a finite amount of stuff to do, and so unsurprisingly plenty of players picked it up, played it, and moved onto other things.
Skyfaring action RPG Granblue Fantasy Relink launched earlier this month after years of delays and reboots across multiple studios, and against all odds it has managed to stick the landing: developer Cygames recently announced that Relink sold 1 million copies in its first 11 days.
Just seven months before Palworld took over the world by so many metrics, a member of the Pocketpair team reckoned 50,000 players would be the most the survival hit would ever achieve.
Palworld has now officially hit a level of popularity most can only dream of: the bootleg costume zone. I should reiterate up-front that these costumes aren't official products from Pocketpair—an important footnote, since no-one should be falsely accused of such crimes against nature.
Flatout is an older game—it came out in 2005—but it's a lot of fun. What it lacks in an accurate driving model, it makes up for in destructibility of both car and driver: When you smash into something at sufficient speed (which, in my case, is quite often) your helmetless driver is ejected through the windshield and over the hood, screaming and ragdolling into a horrific sprawl on whatever they ultimately hit. Good times! Anyway, it's currently free on GOG as part of the week-long Valentine's Day-themed Love at First Pixel sale.
Playing Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor's demo last year, I already felt like I'd discovered a promising vein of gold. Playing a preview of the game's full Early Access build this week has been like digging through and finding a whole glittering cavern of riches. As a big fan of Vampire Survivors-inspired games, I think this is my favourite yet—and it's out today.
It's Valentine's Day, and what better way to celebrate than trying to win a dildo of cosmic proportions?
