New Life for Classic Fighters and Adventurous Indies
This winter, prepare your PCs for a blast from the past as Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. makes its long-awaited debut on Steam. Originally hitting arcades in 2006 and later various consoles, this Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio-developed port promises to be the definitive edition with its 2.0 update of Ultimate Showdown. This update isn’t just a facelift; expect enhanced graphics, new character models, stages, and even rollback netcode to keep the esports vigor alive.
While reminiscing about classics, let’s not overlook the indie scene. In a recent showcase by The MIX, a plethora of indie games were highlighted, promising rich, diverse gameplay. Steam’s event page offers a deeper look into these titles. One that stands out is Lovish, a pixel-heavy adventure game packed with clever level design ideas. It’s a testament to how indie games continue to push creative boundaries.
Documentary Delves into Resident Evil’s Cinematic Past
Ever wondered about the cinematic journey of Resident Evil before it became synonymous with Milla Jovovich? A new documentary, set to premiere on January 7 in the US and UK, titled “George A. Romero’s Resident Evil,” explores the initial attempts to bring this iconic game to the big screen. Directed by Brandon Salisbury, it features archival material and interviews shedding light on George Romero’s uncompleted project. This documentary is a must-watch for fans curious about the intersection of film and gaming history.
Shenmue 3 Finds a New Guardian
In another exciting development, ININ Games has acquired the rights to Shenmue 3, promising to take Yu Suzuki’s brainchild to its next phase. This follows a fruitful collaboration with Ys Net on publishing Air Twister, which has paved the way for a deeper partnership. Despite its mixed reception post a successful Kickstarter campaign, the new phase aims to honor Shenmue’s legacy while enhancing its accessibility to a global audience.
