Here’s a few new clips Uppers, an action game from the makers of theSenran Kaguraseries, is on my radar. It’s set to debut this year in Japan on the Vita, and involves a collective of outlaws on a giant island, beating the snot out of each other. You can get a full for what they’re going for in the below pair of clips, which showcase environmental objects and tag-team supers.

If you like spaghetti westerns (and you should), take a look atBandits and Bounties. It’s a top-down action RPG that combines fast-paced arcade style action with the bleak Western setting we all know and love.

There’s certainly truth in that assumption, but the game skews moreDungeons and Dragonsthan anything else....

Watch out for mightier AI militaries As a novice-at-bestCivilizationplayer, I tend not to get these games at launch. I know I’ll enjoy them, but the discounts will eventually come and so too will updates and expansions. I’m usually not in a rush! WithCivilization VI, though, I caved. I cavedhard. But I don’t regret that decision. The base game has been a treat so far and if this is only the starting point, I’m hopeful for where an eventual “game of the year” edition might end up....

And nothing of value was lost The real-money and gold auction houses will be removed fromDiablo IIIon July 16, 2025. Even though Blizzardhas come out publiclyto disparage the auction houses in the past and flat outskipped themfor the console versions of the game, it’s still something of a shock to the system to see them go away. Good riddance. “When we initially designed and implemented the auction houses, the driving goal was to provide a convenient and secure system for trades,” writes Blizzard....

To Japan at least A little over 10 years ago, Atlus released one of the defining RPGs for the Nintendo DS withEtrian Odyssey. Overwhelmed by role-playing games on the system, I skipped the series untilThe Drowned Cityand realized I had been missing one of the best things to come out of Japan in some time. Two years ago, Atlus crossedEtrian Odysseywith one of my favorite series on the planet, Spike Chunsoft’sMystery Dungeon, creatingEtrain Mystery Dungeon....

I remember downloading the Japanese PSN demo of Yakuza 3 last year, thinking that we’d never see a localized version. Plenty of people imported, giving up on Sega. Fast-forward to about a year later: Now the European demo is up. You can download ittoday. We are doing that right now. Also hitting today is a new trailer highlighting the huge cast of characters in Yakuza 3 (see above). Out of all of the trailers I’ve seen, this one gets me the most excited....
