When Oxenfree released in 2016, I was enamored with it. I was younger then and found comfort in its high school drama and socially awkward characters, who were relatable and felt real. The supernatural yarn it weaved was surprisingly dark, yet grounded in events that felt possible in its strange world of ghosts and timeloops. But players who made it the end were likely left with at least a few unresolved questions, and Oxenfree II: Lost Signals tantalizes with promises of answers, or at least a deeper glimpse into the strange phenomena that occurred on Edwards Island all those years ago. While Oxenfree II delivers in that regard, its narrative and new exploration mechanics felt disappointingly safe for most of its runtime, failing to surprise and hook me in the way its predecessor did (outside of a few key moments); still, fans of the original owe it to themselves to see this story through to its conclusion.
Gex Trilogy is in development and will release on Switch, Square Enix and Limited Run Games just announced.
Gex, a platforming series, got its start in 1995. Gex: Enter the Gecko followed in 1998, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko closed the series out in 1999. This marks the first time these games will be re-released on modern platforms. Also, as they’ll be using Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine, we’ll likely see some improvements.
The classic adventure platformer Tomba! is making a comeback on Switch, it’s been revealed. Limited Run Games just shared the announcement as part of its annual showcase.
Tomba! was originally created by 1997 by Whoopee Camp. It stars a feral child who looks to recover his grandfather’s bracelet from an evil race of anthropomorphic pigs.
Until now, the game has never appeared on platforms outside of the original PlayStation. It will also be updated in Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine.
