Taking cues from the likes of Hollow Knight and Ori, this punishing platforming and exploration game is well worth your time if you're up for a big challenge.
Like the blood and guts that fuse to create the unholy monsters that fill its action-heavy moments, that story and combat come together to deliver a catharsis of destruction I was delighted to be part of.
We caught up with Metaphor: ReFantazio director Katsura Hashino more than a year following his latest hit to further explore the themes of the sweeping adventure, discuss his involvement with Persona, and learn more about what’s next.
In episode 18, we we play two pixelated action games with Full Metal Furies from the creators of Rogue Legacy and Iconoclasts, a Metroid-inspired platformer.
Update: Our first stream has concluded. Thanks for watching! Look for the
archive soon, and we'll be streaming again tomorrow, January 25, at 2
