Switch

System: Switch
Release date: November 16, 2023
Developer: Inti Creates
Publisher: Inti Creates


Inti Creates has certainly earned a reputation for developing high quality 2D action titles having brought games such as Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon and its sequel as well as the Blaster Master Zero series to the Switch over the years. The studio’s latest game, Yohane the Parhelion: Blaze in the Deepblue, is based on a fantasy spinoff of Love Live! Sunshine!! The setting lends itself well to a video game and it has a solid foundation that makes it fun while it lasts, but unfortunately it doesn’t capitalize on this enough to make it any more than a middling experience at best.

Original (11/10): Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince is back with a new gameplay overview trailer highlighting various aspects about the Switch game. Fans can get a look at the world of Nadiria and its environments, the monster wrangler elements, the arenas, and more.

For a recap on the game, read the following overview:
