Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 Arrives on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch in Summer 2022

-
The 2004 hit RPG Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance II is getting an updated re-release this summer. The game, from Publisher Interplay Entertainment and developer Black Isle Studios, will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. The game will not be a remake, but it will feature enhanced graphics and up to 4K resolution on supported platforms. If you want to play with friends, you’ll be able to play co-op locally across all versions. On the Steam version, you’ll also be able to use Remote Play for a long-distance cooperative experience. And yes, it’s fully verified on the Steam Deck for an on-the-go, handheld RPG experience. The original game was released in 2004 on PS2 and Xbox, three years after the first. In our review we gave it an 8.4 out of 10.

Flashback 2 Hands-On: Move Over, Monkey Island! Another 30+ Year-Old Game is Finally Getting a Sequel

And just like Ron Gilbert’s return to the helm of his old brainchild, Paul Cuisset, creator of the original Flashback, has also come back to head up the upcoming sequel to a retro classic. From the hour-long section I was able to play, it’s shocking just how much Flashback 2 seems like it will stick to its roots. That comes with all the potential pros and cons you might imagine. If you never played 1992’s Flashback, or any of the re-releases or remasters since, it’s a retro platformer and adventure game where you jump and roll around, solve puzzles, and shoot mutants in a dystopian cyberpunk future. Despite a pretty enormous 30-year gap, this sequel very much follows in the footsteps of its predecessor...

Get The Legend of Zelda Nintendo Game and Watch Ahead of the Holidays

-
If you missed out on Nintendo Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda Edition preorders, it's not too late. You can still get your hands on this absolutely delightful collectible from Nintendo, for yourself or as a gift for the holidays. In my Game & Watch: Legend of Zelda review , I pretty much gush over it the entire time. It's exactly the sort of collectible that appeals to me: it's not terribly expensive, it has cool and interesting features, and it just feels like a loving tribute rather than a cheap cash grab. Preorder the Nintendo Game & Watch: The Legend of Zelda Edition As stated in the product description, the Nintendo Game & Watch Legend of Zelda edition includes the first two NES games, the Game Boy version of Link's Awakening, and a reimagined version of Vermin starring Link. You can also play "the English or Japanese versions" of the included games. There are some notable musical differences between the Japanese and English versi...
