Nippon Ichi Software has just revealed the latest installment in the Disgaea franchise, Disgaea 7. The game is set to release in Japan early next year on January 26, 2023.

[Review] Xenoblade Chronicles 3
Posted on 2 years ago by Elias in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release Date: July 29, 2022
Developer: Monolith Soft
Publisher: Nintendo
With five years between the release of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and 3, we’ve had plenty of time to devote ourselves to the world of Alrest and pick apart the differences and similarities between it and the world of the original Xenoblade Chronicles. With the Definitive Edition hitting Switch a mere couple of years ago, we’ve had the series fairly fresh on our minds while waiting for the next release. With side content like Torna: The Golden Country from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and the Future Connected content from Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition, there has been a lot to take in before getting to 3 – and that’s not counting those of us who also spent time with the stranded-on-Wii U entry of Xenoblade Chronicles X (a completely unrelated story, but with similar gameplay and an unconnected world.)
