Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos review

System: Switch
Release date: January 28, 2025
Developer: Compile Heart
Publisher: Idea Factory


Pick up any JRPG and the chances are good that one of the first enemies you’ll encounter on your adventure will be some kind of slime. The gelatinous mass of vaguely sentient ooze has been an unspoken staple of the genre since its foundation, but it is still often little more than a stepping stone on our heroes’ journey to greatness. The Neptunia series variation of this creature is the Dogoo, and it has usually served much the same role as an early game encounter that you quickly forget about. Neptunia Riders VS Dogoos puts the questionably adorable canine-based blobs in a more active role, and unfortunately the result is about what you would expect if you ran over a small blob with a motorcycle.

Beef Cat Ultra

Beef Cat Ultra will appear on Nintendo Switch this week, according to developer Brainium Games. It’ll be ready to go on February 7, 2025.

Beef Cat Ultra is an auto-shooter at its core, and also features a Game-Boy aesthetic. After a mysterious Big Guy shows up and stirs up trouble and the adventure begins.
