Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster is an exhausting game. I don’t just mean exhausting in that it has a long name that I’m already tired of typing out, but rather, exhausting as an experience overall. Its world is bleak, barren and void of any semblance of hope for its inhabitants. Its gameplay, consisting almost entirely of archaic turn-based combat, can be unforgiving and occasionally opaque. And while the game has been given a small facelift for this 2021 rerelease, it largely embraces its PlayStation 2 origins and does little to modernize itself today’s audiences. Depending on what type of player you are, this may be enough to turn you off from the game entirely, but those who enjoy patiently unpacking a cryptic, challenging experience will likely find themselves deeply absorbed in Shin Megami Tensei III.
Paradox Interactive and Romero Games are continuing support of the character-driven strategy game Empire of Sin. Announced today is “The Precinct”, an entirely free content expansion. It’s planned for later in 2021.

Outright Games today announced Blaze and the Monster Machines Axle City Racers, a new kart racer based on Nickelodeon’s children CG-animated series. It will release on Switch in October.
