Fortnite fans are calling for Epic Games to give the infamous Goku skin a long-awaited redesign, especially since the rest of the game's anime skins look so great.
Metroidvania fans waited 7 years for this spiritual sequel, and TEVI is everything they wanted according to its glowing reviews
11.12.2023 - 09:09 / gamesradar.com
TEVI is the recently released spiritual successor to 2016’s Rabi-Ribi, a bullet heaven action game in a Metroidvania wrapper, and the seven-year wait seems to have been well worth it based on fan reception.
TEVI casts you as the titular hero who can dash, slash, and shoot her way through hordes of enemies and towering boss fights. Her two friends - Celia and Sable - manifest as floating pods to dish out some ranged damage, which should come in handy as you dodge incoming missile flurries from afar. It’s not all action all the time, however, since you’ll also stumble upon wholesome villages filled with NPCs and quests. And in traditional Metroidvania fashion, your growing assortment of abilities will eventually let you untangle the intertwining map to explore new areas.
All in all, that’s a pretty similar proposition to developer CreSpirit’s previous work, Rabi-Ribi, which also had your protagonist fitted with adorable makeshift bunny ears. The seven-year wait for a successor of some kind, even one that’s not a direct follow-up, seems to have been worth it, though.
TEVI is currently sitting at a “Very Positive” rating on Steam based on over 1,350 user reviews. Many reviews praise the expanded, customizable combat, spectacular boss fights, and vastly improved movement options as you hop around the world. Many others happily call it a worthy successor to Rabi-Ribi, too. One review from Doctor TacoChocolate calls it “one of the best of its ilk I’ve seen all year, save for maybe Blasphemous 2.”

8 years after the first game, cyberpunk adventure Read Only Memories: Neurodiver pushes its release to 2024 as it shows off its psychic protagonist and weird pocket leech
Given that there's only about two weeks of 2023 left, it probably shouldn't be a surprise that Read Only Memories: Neurodiver has been pushed back into 2024, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little sad about it. The original Read Only Memories—which somehow turns nine years old next year, god help us—was an excellent cyberpunk visual novel I still think about from time to time

Eiji Aonuma Says Fans Shouldn’t Expect Another Direct Sequel To A Legend Of Zelda Title In The Future
Despite not winning Game of the Year at The Game Awards last night, which may or may not be controversial depending on which side you were on, The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom remains one of the best games of 2023 by a country mile. The game expanded everything in the previous title and added new gameplay elements that redefined what it meant to be Link. Some people spent hundreds of hours in the games simply wandering around, building things with the Ultrahand, doing side quests, and more. But there’s a little sour note that the game’s producer wishes to note.
