This all leads to a Fire Emblem experience that still retains the core strategy elements of the series, but feels refreshingly different from what weвЂ™ve gotten for years. For the first time in the series, all story scenes have been completely voiced, leading to a story that contains a bit more gravitas and weight due to the stellar job delivered by the voice cast.ДЄdditionally, gameplay has been completely switched up by allowing players to explore towns and dungeons, and doing away with the weapon triangle, among other things. Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is a complete remake of the second game in the series, Fire Emblem Gaiden, and boy is it quite the update.

The Fire Emblem series has seen increasing popularity over the years, quickly becoming one of NintendoвЂ™s flagship series, but this time around Intelligent Systems decided to keep things fresh by going back to the past. If youвЂ™re looking for a punishingly difficult Souls-like to occupy your time, NiohвЂ™s at the top of its game. ThereвЂ™s a ton of content to dig into in Nioh, not only with the main story but with additional side missions, and Twilight Missions that increase the difficulty and remix levels youвЂ™ve already played. These dictate the speed and power of attacks, and learning which stances work best against which enemies is highly important. One of the more unique aspects gives you three different stances with each weapon: low, medium, and high. New challenges and enemies lurk around every corner, and Nioh allows for a lot of variation in combat with its different weapons and styles. Nioh tells the story of William, a British sailor who arrives in 1600s Japan in search of an enemy that stole something precious to him. NiohВ brings a unique Japanese mythology style to the genre, along with a larger emphasis on speed and combos. The latter adds some much-needed humor to the online market. Fast forward to 2017 and weвЂ™ve got one of the very best Souls-like games to date. Last year was a great year for RPGs, and itвЂ™s looking as though 2017 could be even better. Nioh started its life not as a video game, but as a multimedia project based on an unfinished Akira Kurosawa script announced in 2004. This is certainly a package with plenty of content for both Kingdom Hearts fans and anyone looking to get into the series.

As if all that wasnвЂ™t enough, 2.8 also throws in a short CG movie that details the story leading up to the mobile title Kingdom Hearts X. The story directly sets things up for Kingdom Hearts III, and if Back Cover is any indication of what we can expect, RPG fans should be excited. ItвЂ™s made using Unreal Engine 4 and, in truth, almost feels like it could function as a demo for the next entry. Fragmentary PassageВ is a short but worthwhile game included in 2.8 that follows Aqua in the dark world. Of course, anyone that played Dream Drop Distance knows the title does quite a bit to set up for Kingdom Hearts III, which leads us right into the new experience included in the package.
