Persona 5 Royal and Persona 5 probably have the most in-depth romance system that the series has seen. If you enter a relationship with someone, you'll be able to take them on dates and you'll unlock multiple special scenes that play out at set points during the story. The waifu wars have never been quite so engaging.
Falcom Action RPG Ys X: Nordics Sails West on PS5, PS4 This Autumn | Push Square
20.02.2024 - 00:38 / pushsquare.com
NIS America will publish the latest game in the Ys series, Ys X: Nordics, this autumn / fall in the west. The action RPG originally launched last September in Japan, and a localisation announcement has been on the cards ever since.
Nordics features recurring Ys protagonist Adol Christin, but this time around, he shares the spotlight with a young warrior named Karja. The game's fast-paced combat system revolves around the two heroes as they fight side by side. What's more, this is something of a seafaring adventure, as Adol is able to take to the water aboard his own ship; naval battles and island-hopping exploration await.
Ys X isn't the only Falcom title NIS America will be releasing this year. The first game in the new Trails saga, Trails through Daybreak, is set for the summer, also on PS5 and PS4. It's turning into a busy year for fans of Japanese RPGs!
Are you looking forward to Ys X: Nordics? Raise the sails and surf into the comments section below.
Robert's been a dedicated PlayStation fan since the days of Tekken 2, and he still loves a good dust up. When he's not practising combos, he's usually getting lost in the latest 100-hour RPG, or, y'know, replaying The Witcher 3.
Been waiting for this one! I honestly thought we might have to wait until 2025, looking at how long localization took for Ys 9, so I'm happy with this.
Excited for this. Looks a step up from Ys IX.
As a big fan of Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, I’m really looking forward to Nordics on PS5. Just glad it’s this year!
Oh yes, I’ve recently become a fan of this series.
@Ainu20 Yeah even though we're still behind on Falcom games here in the west, NISA is at least localising them at a steady pace. It could be a lot worse!
Day 1 to my long list of games from Japan this year. Wonder if they will ever shorten the release cadence in the west
Yooooo let's goooooo. 2 banger games this year. Hopefully Kuro / Daybreak 2 english next year (I guess around Q2?)
Also, I got the limited edition for this in Japan with the Ys X bag it's dope af.
Ys games are always good times.so its all good.ys x nordics trailer looks really good.word up son
Wow, that’s a helluva wait from the original Japanese release date. Good job I’m no rush tbh.
This is cool.
Between this and Trails though, I do kind of want to see what Falcom could do with a clean slate game that doesn't have double-digit previous games in the series they have to honour.
Sign me up. I can't wait for the grand adventure of Adol and his caked up partner.

Bloober Team Insists Konami to Blame for Ill-Received Silent Hill 2 Remake Trailer | Push Square
It's tough to get a read on the current state of the upcoming Silent Hill 2 remake, which is being developed by Bloober Team, published by Konami, and supposedly launching later this year. Surfacing at Sony's recent State of Play showcase, long-suffering fans were subjected to a combat trailer which seemed out of touch with the series's more cerebral roots.

Dragon's Dogma 2 PS5 Demo Is Being Readied, Fans Reckon | Push Square
Capcom loves a good pre-release demo, and fans think they have found evidence of one for Dragon's Dogma 2 ahead of its PS5 launch next month. An update to the PC version on Steam apparently now brings up an extra app that's listed as «free on demand»; this is supposedly the text associated with demos uploaded to the digital marketplace. Due to that, a Dragon's Dogma 2 demo is thought to be on the way, presumably for all platforms.

As reported earlier today, Sony shipped 8.2 million PS5 consoles during the three-month period ending 31st December, 2023 – a very good number which contributed to record-breaking revenue, but not enough to help it reach its forecast of 25 million units for the current financial year.

Console sales are crucial, and Sony will be pleased it’s shipped almost 55 million PS5s to date – but monthly active users are also an important metric for organisations these days. Platform holders want customers to be logging in often, because when they’re engaged, there’s a good chance they’ll spend money on software and add-ons through the PS Store.

UK Sales Charts: Helldivers 2 Holds Firm While Skull and Bones Sails into the Top 10 | Push Square
The UK's latest boxed games chart is in, and it's been invaded by a couple of new releases to shake things up. Nintendo's latest Switch exclusive predictably takes the top spot, knocking Hogwarts Legacy back down to second place. Ubisoft is also back in the bestsellers list with Skull and Bones, the online pirate action title that was in development for a thousand years. It's sailed into fourth place, which isn't a bad debut for a game everyone seems to have written off.
