Ys X trailer

NIS America and Falcom prepared a launch trailer for the western debut of Ys X: Nordics. The game is finally available overseas following its initial Japanese release.

Below is a rundown of what to expect from the action RPG:

This year, Microsoft really started to take the initiative to bring more of its Xbox-exclusive games to other platforms – and Switch certainly benefited. While rumors of Hi-Fi Rush didn’t pan out, the console did get Grounded and Pentiment. It sounds like Microsoft will continue this strategy going forward.

In a shareholders letter from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, he reiterated that the company will continue putting its Xbox games on Switch as well as “new platforms.” When Nintendo comes out with Switch 2, it’s likely that Microsoft will jump at the opportunity to support the system.

Nadella mentioned in his letter:

Shadows of the Damned Hella Remastered review

System: Switch
Release date: October 31, 2024
Developer: Grasshopper Manufacture / Engine Software
Publisher: NetEase


When a game is given the label of “cult classic,” in my experience, this is typically due to one of two possible scenarios occurring. The first is that the game itself was generally deemed above average in terms of quality, but for business or marketing reasons never found a huge audience; this is the optimistic perspective. The second, more cynical perspective is that the game itself ended up as a middling experience due to creative or technical decisions, but managed to find a small fanbase in spite of these issues. Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered boldly labels itself as “a cult classic born from the most creative minds in the industry” on its store pages, so it begs the question: exactly what type of cult classic is this 2011 third-person shooter, and how does it hold up 13 years after its initial release?
