Other new releases include the mini Metroidvania Slime’s Journey, 2D action platformer Heidelberg 1693, arcade-style brick breaker Quantum Storm, and GameLoft’s The Oregon Trail. Team17 is also back with Bravery and Greed – a side-scrolling roguelite brawler with four classic character classes. What wags! “It’s a one-of-a-kind experience, and an easy recommendation for anyone open to some cheap laughs in a world where the points don’t matter,” beamed Screen Rant. There was no McPixel 2, if you’re wondering. McPixel 3 seems to be going down well with critics too, being a comical point ‘n clicker filled with daft mini-games. “On the track, Smurfs Kart pulls off a surprisingly solid imitation of Mario Kart, with satisfying handling and some wonderful visuals (albeit at 30fps,)” was their verdict. Don’t be quick to write this one off – reviews are mostly positive so far, including a 7/10 from Nintendo Life. At the very least it’s nice to see new interactions between characters, but it’s just a shame the gameplay loop just couldn’t pull through,” they said.Īnother licensed game launching this week is Smurfs Kart – a Switch exclusive from Microids. “RWBY: Arrowfell is a title that will only appeal to fans of the franchise, but even then it won’t offer a stunning gameplay experience or make it worth picking up for the story. Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long are playable characters in this 2D explorative beat’em up.
Then there’s the anime tie-in RWBY: Arrowfell, developed by WayForward. It’s a pet simulation game with evolutions and mutations, intended to be a chilled experience open to experimentation. Wobbledogs also presents a cast of curious critters to cater to. The eight gyms can be tackled in any order, three ‘grand stories’ can be dipped in and out of, characters can be customised, and the new legendary Pokémon resemble motorbikes – giving a new way to get around. All signs also point to Scarlet & Violet building upon Pokémon Legends: Arceus to create an open-world experience with more freedom than before. Two mainline Pokémon games in the same year may sound like overkill, but chances are development overlapped by a good year or so.
