The arrival of Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven, the 3D remake of Romancing SaGa 2, was one of last year's good news, and now we're bringing you our extended video of the PC version. The game is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4 and PC, and a free demo is also available to download on all platforms.

KOEI TECMO and developer Gust invite us to explore the Kingdom of Fiore in Fairy Tail 2, already available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Here is our gameplay video captured on PlayStation 5.

Although 2024 may not have been a kind year for many reasons, it did have the merit of delivering several top-class JRPGs. Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is one of them, and if you haven't had a chance to check out the visuals, our gameplay video of the PS5 version should give you some answers.

Boti: Byteland Overclocked is a nice little platformer we covered a bit more than a year ago when it came out on PC. The game is rather short when you only focus on the main story (don't expect more than 4 hours) but this console version include all 4 DLCs released so far. If you take care of all the optional content and play as the completionist you are, it should take you around 10 hours to see and do everything. Note that there is local and online co-op available, which is always nice. As for graphics modes, we recommend the one favoring performance as the resolution mode runs at 30 fps and it doesn't feel that great to us.

Well, unless you're not home alone for Christmas that is... Alien: Rogue Incursion came out on December 19 but because of the holiday season, we haven't been able to propose any video coverage until now. Inside, you will find a video showing the very beginning of the adventure on Playstation VR2, but don't be fooled by the scarce presence of xenomorphs in the opening section of the game. They will indeed become more and more visible as you progress into the story, so it is clearly more action-oriented than Isolation was. It's still a very immersive experience and though the graphics aren't the best out there, the lighting and smoke effects make the visuals pretty atmospheric and the game faithful to the movie franchise. As far as we can tell, there are no visual enhancements on Playstation 5 Pro, which is a shame when you consider that a game like Subside (developed by one person only) does take advantage of the new hardware, but who knows if Survios will propose a Pro update in the future.

It is thankfully rare but sometimes we get games long after their original release. That's what happened with Sonic X Shadow Generations that we were sent more than a month after it came out, at a time when we had so many games to take care of it was just impossible to give SEGA's new Sonic title some video coverage. Now we're finally on a short break for the Christmas holiday, we can finally give you a glimpse of this remaster X DLC.

We were never able to get a copy of Slitter head, which is why we didn't cover the gale back when it was released in November. Since a demo came on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, we decided to take the Pro version for a spin, even though we're not exactly sure what enhancements this version benefit from. Indeed, all the other versions seem to run just as well (most of the time at least) and image quality does not seem to be degraded that much on the base consoles. The reviews for the game have been quite polarizing so the release of a trial version is a good thing if you couldn't make up your mind about a potential purchase. Don't hesitate to share your thoughts if you get a chance to give it a go.

Zenless Zone Zero came out last July but it was recently updated on PlayStation 5 Pro. As we'd never played the console version before, we were only able to capture the beginning of the adventure, which may explain why we haven't seen many areas where the ray tracing option seems especially impactful on the visuals. RTGI seems to be in place though, so direct comparison can show improvements more visibly. It's a shale however that we spotted a few frame rate issues caused by RT, but to be fair, they seem rather minor overall, to the point we didn't even notice them during combat. That said, they are present and it should be noted. Image quality is a bit too soft to our liking and it doesn't seem to have been improved over base PS5, but we might be wrong as we didn't pixel count.

When we first started playing Go Home Annie, we thought it would be just another horror game set in a house, but since we had not read anything about it before, we were pretty surprised by the little twist that took place after what can be considered as the prologue. Not that the game is the absolute best in its category, but its eerie atmosphere, engaging voice acting, excellent sound design and soundtrack and its solid puzzles actually make it worth checking out. It remains a rather short experience though, around four to five hours, but if you're into paranormal events you might find something quite interesting here, especially for such a price tag (€19.50/$19.50).

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 may have come out a month ago exactly, it hasn't managed to solve all the launch issues quite yet. Two weeks ago, when we recorded the following video, we were able to play immediately, so it was a good start, but then we ran into some bugs while playing: environment glitches and low frame rates over Los Angeles in a Photograph mission, the disappearance of our score and sections passed in a low flight mission and some oddities with the trees to name but a few. Our fiber connection may not be the fastest out there but it's still solid (1 Gbits) so it was a shame. Today, we tried to play the game again but got stuck on the initial loading screen three times and then the game froze while we were flying over Melbourne, that also had some problems with some of the trees. Our last attempt went well though, no weird glitches or anything and we were able to reach the main screen rapidly. Aside from those issues, this second episode developed by Asobo is without a doubt a nice improvement over the first, with more content, more game modes and impressive visuals, even on console.
