Capcom is in the midst of a Golden Age, and we spoke with producer Masachika Kawata about how the publisher / developer has managed this during an era of extreme industry volatility.
We traveled to Capcom’s Osaka offices to learn about the resurrection of its long-dormant Onimusha series and toured Kyoto to see the real-life inspiration behind the game’s “gorgeously eerie” dark fantasy action.
Combat is the best part of Beast of Reincarnation, courtesy of a satisfying combat system filled with experimentation and tense fun. If only the rest of Game Freak's venture into the action space matched it.
Where Legends: Z-A experiments with the Pokémon formula, it succeeds in delivering a novel experience that will hopefully encourage Game Freak to continue challenging what Pokémon games can be in the future.
We discuss the latest releases including The Outer Worlds 2 and Dispatch, plus we sit down with the prolific voice behind the likes of Karlach and Cider.
This comeback finally washes away the bad taste left by the reviled Ninja Gaiden 3, and I hope to see Yakumo’s legend grow over a new series of stylish action adventures.
