VGChartz's Paul Broussard: "It was the year of the spin-offs in the strategy genre, with a number of major players in other genres, and indeed other mediums altogether, trying their hand at creating strategy games. Mario & Rabbids likely took no one by surprise this time around, but Marvel's Midnight Suns and Dune: Spice Wars saw major book/film franchises providing solid entries into the genre. Contrasting these new entrants is the genre vet - no strategy game list would be complete without an entry from Creative Assembly, and the Total War: Warhammer sub-series delivered once again. Who would be the champion of the strategy genre this year?"
Dune: Spice Wars has today received a free update, as well as the game's first paid DLC for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
All playable March 19.
It's always the ine they leave out if the headline that interests me most 😅 DBZ Kakarot, been waiting for this to pop up on plus
I completely missed that DBZ Kakarot was in the group, I have midnight sons and RE3 so was kinda disappointed.
Yea, it’s my last chance to play my childhood, now that he is gone. I’m watching way too many good anime at the moment to rewatch the series but this is the perfect excuse to visit that universe.
Never played Midnight Suns and probably won’t anytime soon but maybe someday. Pretty good month not great not horrible. I used to love sports games when I was a kid but that was before the monetization they went through and now I avoid them.
Not all sports games are like that but ea and 2k games are definitely
Heard a lot of good things about Midnight Suns! Also looking forward to Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot and will probably download 2K24 as well.
Not a great month for me. Will give Midnight Suns a go.
I've never played Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier. Might give it a go although it's supposed to just be okay.
Never played a Phoenix Wright game before, so might try Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy.
The Lost Frontier isn’t a true Jak and Daxter game. If you haven’t played them before I’d highly advise skipping The Lost Frontier and spending your time on the trilogy. The real Jak games are developed by Naughty Dog
I'm a big Jak & Daxter fan. Just not that into portables so I never picked this one up (didn't know there was a PS2 port when I was younger).
VGChartz's Chinh Tran: "As demonstrated by our finalists, strategy gamers had a lot of variety in where they would spend their time executing meticulous moves and mulling over decisions. Although the following games offer different strategic experiences and force gamers to consider different elements, their core aspects remain similar. And no matter what you decided to play, you were guaranteed a mental workout."
