Guest writer, Nina returns to give us the low down on Horizon Forbidden West new DLC. Horizon: The Burning Shores, and she has nice things to say.
“Horizon: The Burning Shores, Lowkey Better than Forbidden West”

Redfall, Massachusetts. A lovely island town with great amenities and plenty for locals and tourists alike.
Unfortunately a legion of vampires have also taken a fancy to Redfall as well. Isolating the community and blocking out the sun, our resident fang-faces are having their way with the human population.
Time for a hero, or four, to step up.

Dead Island 2 doesn’t mess about, a long awaited sequel to the fondly dismembered Dead Island.
This time round you get to choose from a bunch of keen zombie slayers and make your way through the cluttered alleyways and luxury houses of L.A.
Once you’ve picked your Slayer du jour, depending on their style and skill tree, it’s clobbering time!

Being completely oblivious to this latest Mojang Studios release, my initial thought was of Minecraft Dungeons and how I had enjoyed that.
I entered the Legends realm with quite a positive outlook. Bring on the Piglins!
Thanks to Microsoft/Xbox for providing a copy of Minecraft Legends to me for review. I really do appreciate it.

At its heart, Everspace 2 is an arcade shooter – and I’m perfectly fine with that.
Originally funded by a crowd-funding campaign, Everspace 2 has just come out of a two year early access phase.
It describes itself as “a fast-paced single-player space shooter with deep exploration, tons of loot and classic RPG elements.” Well, it’s all of those things wrapped up in a space faring package that will scratch that space combat itch that’s been bugging you for so long.

As someone who has, for the past five years or so, needed to come to terms with the fact that I do not have time in my life for long-winded RPGs.
Particularly JRPGs, Mato Anomalies has breezed in to scratch a very specific itch.

I usually find that when I think about a game at lot when I’m not playing it.
Trying to find solutions to mysteries, mulling over exactly what did that cryptic conversation with a character mean, then I’m usually smitten with that game.
For me at the moment, that game is Dredge, a “fishing” game from a game development studio in my home town in New Zealand, that has buried itself into my mind and I can’t stop thinking about it, I can’t stop playing it.
I’m smitten with this indie gem.

Have to say, I am digging these RE:makes.
Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 both had me enjoying my time in front of the TV. Especially as I never really got into them back in the day when first released.
Resident Evil 4 on the other hand was my first real foray into the world of Resident Evil.

Returnal will run well on an ageing GPU like an RX580, which means it still has some life left in it. Sure, it won’t look as good as a card that can push the high frame rates and do ray tracing without breaking a sweat.
More importantly, it’s actually playable on our ageing RX580.

Ahhhh, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. A Souls-like game, the genre I absolutely love to hate.
I have them all, Dark Souls to Sekiro, Mortal Shell to The Surge, Remnant to Elden Ring. I love the style and design elements involved in this genre of game.
The problem being is I always struggle with them.

Right off the bat Wanted: Dead from Soleil Game Studios had my attention. The one reason was two words. Single Player. No online, no multiplayer, no invasions.
Wanted: Dead rings back to the likes of Shadow Warrior and Serious Sam where there is plenty of fun to be had without getting too serious (sorry Sam). Wanted: Dead also also manages to include some little mini games and collectables on the side.
It is a nice well rounded title with good presentation.
