Crush! Frag! Destroy!'s Beki Sutcliffe gives her opinion on whether or not the new RPG from Atlus does enough to stand out from the crowd:
"Some people might argue that video games are comprised of only mindless violence; presenting gruff, masculine protagonists with muscles on top of their muscles and mowing down hordes of enemies with guns coming out of their ears and chainsaws on their elbows."
"However, standing their ground in the opposing corner – often stereotypically armed with fabulous hair (darling!) and endearing sensitivity – we have the classic Role Playing Game. Hexyz Force, the newly released RPG published by Atlus, is one of these games which brings a welcome break from the grim and gritty and, despite featuring an end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it narrative, attempts to maintain an upbeat feel with flourishing environments and cutesy characters."
From a brand new story campaign to quality-of-life improvements and bonus content, Vengeance is the ultimate way to dive into the latest chapter of one of the best modern JRPGs.
Atlus Fes 2024, an event to commemorate Atlus' 35th anniversary, was held in Akihabara, Tokyo on the weekend of 8-9 June 2024.
Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."
Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.
HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.
It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.
What a word vomit, rambling, turd of an article that simply states the obvious. Classic exputer.
