White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is a survival horror game developed by ‘Sonnori‘ and published by ‘PQube‘. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is said to be coming out September 8th 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PS4. It came out years ago on pc and many knew about this game. X35 Earthwalker knows this game very well. We hope some things have changed though. Let’s take a look.
White Day: A Labyrinth Named School was. A very popular game. Many people made gameplay video of this game. To simply explain the story of this game. You control a dude named Lee. He enters the school after it’s closed for the day. More like snuck in. He did this to return an item that a girl dropped and left behind. Problem;em is… this school has many problems. Some are supernatural. It ain’t safe up in here.
The big problem that White Day: A Labyrinth Named School will have is that it already went viral. It went big. Now it’s coming out just on the consoles? That isn’t enough. There needs to be more to this game. Well… we hear there is. Apparently there’s all new visuals, which was clearly needed. New audio effects too. There’s a brand new character! New scenario and best of all “reimagined ghosts”. Apparently there’s also special endings too. So there is some new stuff.
The reimagined ghost is what we are most interested in for White Day: A Labyrinth Named School. The ghosts and the strange supernatural stuff was the best things overall. Were hope the ghosts looks more threatening, sound more terrifying or creepy. We want new ghosts too. There isn’t much but there’s room for new things and action. They have to supe this game up.
We checked out some White Day: A Labyrinth Named School gameplay and it’s what we expected. We do want to see more from this game though. It still doesn’t feel like enough. We know that there’s the famous and loved, while hated, janitor. The janitor is back and he’s got his baseball club. Ready to beat students over the head just like old times.
Overall White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is a good game for sure. Characters, actions, hunters, ghosts, tons of secrets, multiple endings and an angry janitor. We also heard there is also 30+ additional costumes for all characters. So we are checking those out. The developers ‘Sonnori’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see what else this game pulls out. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School may have reimagined ghosts but those are spooky enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Steelrising is a action Role Playing Game developed by ‘Spiders‘ and published by ‘Nacon‘. Steelrising is said to be coming out the 8th of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC. Steelrising looking like it’s going to be sort off dark and serious. X35 Earthwalker oversees battles and wars. Let’s take a look.
Steelrising has a wacky but cool story going on. So to keep it simple. Players control a character called Aegis. You joined a revolution in Paris. Why? Well… King Louis XVI has a automata army and they causing real problems for the people of Paris. The city is burning and dying. Some say it’s bleeding. So yeah, time to fight back. Steelrising all about the revolution.
Aegis, the main character, is basically a “mechanical masterpiece”. Aegis was built by an engineer, called Vaucanson, to be the queen’s bodyguard. So you know she must be powerful, if she’s made to protect the queen herself. Skill, patience and timing is definitely needed in Steelrising. Failing to dodge and roll at the correct time can result in a swift death. Big bad machines will definitely require timing.
There’s different weapons and you can upgrade your abilities. This allows for a variety of fighting styles. All about agility and mobility? Slower but a real heavy hitter? Elemental attacks? You decide. We already know what fighting style we want and what’s the best for the current situation.
We checked out some Steelrising gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. We hate how ugly our character Aegis looks though. One of the worst looking characters. We like the speed of the battles. We like the there’s multiple techniques. You can parry enemies and time abilities. We like that look that Steelrising has. Quite unique… even though France is quite lame. We hoping that the difficult is there. These types of games are popular. We hope Steelrising does well.
Overall Steeelrising looks like a good game for sure. There’s multiple good stories you can get out of this setting. Le’s hope the story here is good enough. The variety in combat styles need to be balanced and clear. The visuals are good and the effects are very good. The animations are good for the most part. The developers ‘Spiders’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear out for this game. Steelrising may have a revolution going on but it’s too insignificant for… the ‘Earth Walk!’
PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC is a action adventure game developed by ‘Now Production‘ and published by ‘Bandai Namco‘. PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC is said to be coming out the 26th of August 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PC. X35 Earthwalker likes the majority of Pac-Man games. Let’s take a look.
PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC. In this world, Pac-man himself returns home, on his birthday, to learn that the ghosts have kidnapped Pac-man’s family and friends. This off course ruined the birthday party. So basically we now have to rescue Pac-man’s loved ones and beat those ghosts up. That’s the story… so get to it.
Pac-man heads out on this big adventure. The detonation is Ghost island. Pac-man needs to explore the six areas here. Now off course this is a remake of Pac-man world. So expect improved graphics, visuals, controls, sounds and more. Off course the main villains the boss of the ghosts. The scumbag known as Toc-man. So yep. It’s Pac-man vs Toc-man.
We checked out some PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. There’s multiple bosses, those ghosts are an annoying and there’s even car racing. There’s classic pac-man mechanic like like get the pellets but there’s also platforming gameplay as well. Become a giant pac-man head and start munching down.
Overall PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC just seems like a good fun game. Something that almost all Pac-man fans can get behind. Gamers always like to see a remake of an old game they truly enjoyed many years ago. PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC looks like it has been done well. The developers ‘Now Production’ have done a very good job. We at X35 Earthwalker hope this game does it’s job. Now PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC may have Toc-man but he’s too pathetic for…the ‘Earth Walk!’
SD Gundam Battle Alliance is an action role playing game developed by ‘ARTDINK‘ and published by ‘Bandai Namco Entertainment‘. SD Gundam Battle Alliance is said to be coming out the 25th of August 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. SD Gundam Battle Alliance is looking sort of serious. X35 Earthwalker is here. Let’s take a look.
SD Gundam Battle Alliance takes place in a strange place called G: Universe. It’s a world where the Gundam canon story has been completely distorted. It’s not correct. So you need correct this distorted time line. How do you doo that? By fighting off course. What else is there?
Listen to this. They say you can “develop new Mobile Suits to add to your arsenal. Gather Capital and expansion parts to transform your favo(u)rite machine into the ultimate MS.” There’s Also co-op as well. After all you roll in a team of three. If you ain’t got no friends for whatever reason, you can play with bots.
We checked out some SD Gundam Battle Alliance gameplay and it’s not what we expected at first. It went for the miniature cutesy toy style for design. They are all short and look like toys fighting. The combat definitely looks like it flows. Smoothly too.
Overall SD Gundam Battle Alliance looks like it’s going to bee pure action. Those who are fans of the Gundam world and lore, will definitely enjoy this. Maybe not the style though. Let’s see how big this game is and else they got too offer. In time. We at X35 Earthwalker aren’t Gundam people but we check tings out still. The developers ‘ARTDINK’ have done a good job soo far. Now SD Gundam Battle Alliance may have a distorted history but it would instantly be fixed by… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Raji: An Ancient Epic is an action adventure that we at X35 Earthwalker had a good time with. This game is excellent. Right off the bat we will say that. Raji: An Ancient Epic was developed by ‘Nodding Heads games‘ and published by ‘Super‘. For the X35 record (which is superior to everyone else’s record), we want everyone to know we have played and beaten both the original and Enhanced Edition of Raji: An Ancient Epic. Here”s our quick thoughts. Let’s take a look.
Not only have we completely Raji: An Ancient Epic with style but we also got every Xbox achievement for the game too. So X35 Earthwalker is well versed in this game. First of all Raji: An Ancient Epic is definitely a journey game. More relaxing and chill than serious. That sort off changed with Enhanced Edition. Bit more on that latter. There’s no other game that gave an experience like Raji: An Ancient Epic. It’s certainly unique. X35 Earthwalker would recommend that gammers try this game at least once. It’s not the best game or the greatest but it’s certainly special. The simple of story of a big sister who just wants to save her brother turns into a battle to save the whole world as she realises that there’s much more going on bigger than her and her brother. We really do understand the whole big sister, little brother and how they just have each other.
We enjoyed the hindu mythology that’s at the centre of this game. The website claims it’s a blend of hindu and balinese but one is clearly more identifiable and big than the other in Raji: An Ancient Epic. We like those story walls that gave some quick information on these mythological figures like shiva and durga for example. We don’t know exactly how accurate Raji: An Ancient Epic is with the hindu mythology especially where it said that both shiva and durga are half of another being who they came from. Hindu mythology has so much disagreement and questions and stuff that just doesn’t make sense. We see this online between hindus who don’t agree. Regardless it was nice and interesting to learn. Still hate brauma though as he started all this. He gave a demon eternal life and a god slaying weapon… what could possibly go wrong.
Let’s quickly explain the original vs Enhanced Edition. Enhanced Edition added new things. There’s a new game mode, there’s Hindi voice option for the dialogues. There’s new enemies as in stronger variants of the original enemies. Some like the standard big demon with the club now has new moves altogether. They are more aggressive. There’s a bigger version of it that can send out spiritual versions of itself to attack you. Those annoying monkey like demons are harder to interrupt, they can juggle you in groups, more aggressive, have an actual pounce attack and have a big brother version of them which attacks with a sword tail. The enemies are overall stronger and harder to beat. More enemies show up and at times can be a bit unfair. Enhance Edition made us have to sit ups a few times when fighting instead of just leaning back and relaxing. By the way. The gameplay above is of the Enhanced Edition. The ones below are of the original game.
Raji: An Ancient Epic Enhanced Edition is the time to try this game. The game now looks even better. They fixed Raji’s face and she looks so much better now. It’s harder, more modes, additional options and actually poses a challenge now. We still like the look of but hate those stupid fish guardians who try to eat your platforms. We liked the giant flying peacock and it did look impressive in the skies above. The city hiranya nagari is still the best level in the game. Such a beautiful area. There’s lots to see and experience Raji: An Ancient Epic. When you go through the levels, you should try to look around. One, you get too see all this game has going on and two, you can find the favour of the gods to improve your fighting capabilities.
We did notice this negative. Some of the abilities you can get through using your favour orbs from the gods that you find don’t work properly or at all. The lightning that’s suppose to strike from above… we don”t see it. We actually ended up ignoring that ability completely. The freeze enemies as you continue to hit them isn’t effective enough from our experience. The fire abilities all work but it;”s the lightning and ice that has one that isn’t effective or doesn’t work.
Last major upgrade to Raji: An Ancient Epic from the Enhanced Edition is the bosses all got tuned up. They are all stronger and harder. The naga as in that giant snake was cool but he now sprays venom to attack you if he knows you are hiding behind that structure. He didn’t. The first big demon boss has these long chains with flames to hit you and he chases you down which is a complete upgrade from the original boss. Rangda seems the same but her attacks might be faster and more relentless in tracking you. She is so disturbing being a incredibly old demon lady with claw nails and sausage, banana dangling breasts. You can’t get her horrible image out of your head. The big boss mahabalasura is also stronger. Has new attacks, more active and will catch players off guard. He will rush you down.
Overall, Raji: An Ancient Epic especially Enhanced Edition is an excellent game. We seriously enjoyed it. It’s colourful, beautiful to look at and has amazing environments that you want to explore. It’s also simple. We haven’t seen a place like the city hiranya nagari in any game to this day. It’s worth playing for sure. Now remember that this G-blog isn’t a full review, just a quick thing about it. There’s way more and so much more to talk about in detail and say but we will leave it here. An easy 9/10 from X35 Earthwalker. Raji: An Ancient Epic may have gods and demons but they are all a complete joke compare too… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige is the new update for the game. The developers ‘Cold Iron studios‘ and the publishers are ‘Focus Entertainment‘. This update is said to be coming out the 26th of July 2022 on all the usual platforms, so Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC. We at X35 Earthwalker definitely want more to be brought to Aliens: Fireteam Elite. Let’s take a look.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a very good co-op shooter game. It’s very difficult game but gets ridiculously difficult on those higher difficulties. As in unfair hard. There’s lots of action and lots of Xenomorphs. Now Aliens: Fireteam Elite will become Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige has a whole new game mode called ‘Restock Turrets’. So basically you have to defend against a horde of Xenomorphs (what else is new?)… but by using turrets. You have to keep these turrets stocked up. This could easily be a good game mode bringing that zombie horde feeling to some extent. it depends on how they build it and a few variables.
There are four new weapons. Disappointing that there’s only four. Two of them are shotguns, another is an automatic sniper rifle and the last is a launcher. One of the original shotguns are trash while the other can be useful. So these two new shotguns: Hand Gun: DKT-59 Misha and Heavy: P.649 HEL are most welcome. They better not suck. One’s like a pistol shotgun while the other is double shot shotgun. The automatic sniper rifle is the SVAT-92 Sokol. An automatic sniper rifle: SVAT-92 Sokol doesn’t suit the style of the game as much… unless it’s rate of fire and power are good enough. The launcher is the P.649 HEL. It’s more like a powerful energy laser weapon. Charged shots too.
Lastly there’s the new prestige system… ranking system. Well now your experience points aren’t unless once you reach max level. Now they progress prestige. Do this to unlock new name plates and more. Every 10 prestige levels gets you gun colours, emotes, outfits, decals and accessories. So yeah, go level up. Oh and by the way Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige will now become cross platform. So more people are available and, easier to find partners for multiplayer.
We checked out some Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige gameplay. It’s what we expected. It’s still Aliens: Fireteam Elite. Just with a few more things. Too little if you ask us but it’s still more. Trying out these weapons and experimenting with them will be the main event for us most likely. Second would be the new game mode.
Overall Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige looks like a nice update. We at X35 Earthwalker will just have two see what’s happening. Now Aliens: Fireteam Elite – Season 4: Prestige may have an update but it’s far too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Severed Steel is a First Person Shooter game developed by ‘Greylock Studio‘ and published by ‘Digerati‘. Severed Steel is said to be coming out the 22nd of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, 21st on Nintendo Switch and 20th for PlayStation. It came out 2021 on PC but it seems like no one cared. X35 Earthwalker has already noticed some specific things about Severed Steel. Let’s take a look.
In Severed Steel you play as… Steel. Steel is described as nimble. Just watch her move and you’ll see that nimble isn’t the word for it. This girl got almost all the movement needed. She out here running along walls and sliding around. She’s also only got one arm. So yeah, that’s quite the disadvantage but don’t give up on her yet. Steel does make up for a missing arm with a useful attachment. Very useful attachment. So go out there and shoot the enemies.
Now just by looking at Severed Steel, experienced players should already notice certain, familiar mechanics. Severed Steel feels like a combination, to some extent, of Super Hot, Titanfall 2 and Vanquish. The sliding around but most importantly the bullet time. There’s a lot of bullet time. Opportunities for lining up your shots and taking in the situation. You are also running along walls for that extra mobility. So rush an enemy, go along the wall and get behind them, then slide past with bullet time to end them with style. We like this as we need games of different types. An action focused more casual shooter game is respected and needed. Good job.
We checked out some Severed Steel gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. Did we forget to mention that you can interact with the environment and even destroy it? Well we didn’t forget. The environment is destructible. You can even throw objects at your enemies to give you the advantage. With your arm cannon you can truly blast away the competition. We like the abundance of mobility. There’s even flips and dives in Severed Steel. There’s a variety of weapons from regular firearms to shotguns and even explosive weapons like a grenade launcher. Get to it.
Overall Severed Steel looks alright so far. Severed Steel isn’t a big story adventure. Nope. It’s just straight action with lots of bullet time, mobility, gunning and different weapons. We would like more information concerning the difficulty of the game and the enemies. The enemies have been described as “dynamic, unscripted, squad-based AI”. We don’t trust that right now. The developers ‘Greylock Studios’ have done a alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker need to see more. Now Severed Steel may have lots of action but it’s not big enough for the ‘Earth Walk!’
Solstice is a hack and slash action adventure game developed by ‘Reply Game Studios‘ and published by ‘Modus games‘. Solstice is said to be coming out the 20th of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC. Solstice is looking real serious right now. X35 Earthwalker likes to see big new games that are bringing some fire.
Solstice is definitely looking big right now. There’s a ‘holy kingdom’ of keidas which has a balance situation going on. Then wraiths show up. These feral creature invade and they are all about getting rid of all living things. There are beings called chimeras who are like hybrid warriors. They alone can face and defeat the wraiths. We won’t say more.
In Soulstice, you control two sisters who have basically been reborn as chimera. Briar got a huge strength boost. Superhuman levels. Same for her toughness. Her sister, Lute, was sacrificed to bind her soul to her sister. She is now a ghost who has mystical powers. That’s how hybrids are formed after all. Two people must unite and one must be sacrificed. So Briar and Lute are powerful enough to face the wraiths now. They have multiple abilities and weapons to bring to this battle.
Don’t forget that wraiths can corrupt their victims/prey and can even take it to the next level to possess their bodies. They overran a city and really ruined it. Briar and Lute get sent there to handle the situation and get the city back… but off course the group or Order they are working for has hidden agendas. So yeah, can they be trusted? We don’t even trust Soulstice. The city f Elden has multiple secrets and to find and puzzles to solve.
We checked out some Soulstice gameplay and it’s what we expected. Lots off team work with your spirit sister. A ghost sister has many abilities. Stuff you would expect as well. Shielding, pushing back, attacks, enhancing and lots of support. We see a variety of attacks coming your way. We do like that the wraiths look like wraiths. They are ghoulish, long, and actually look like they come straight from a horror world. Scary maybe. There’s detail here. Enemies need to look scary and dangerous… most of the time. We know there are different types off course. For example there’s: Wraiths, Corrupted and Possessed. Let’s just say Lute may be able to help with that.
Overall Soulstice looks like it’s going too be a very good game. We like the animations and the visuals of the game. The combat looks smooth and that matters here. As always there’s so much we can say but we will leave it there. We can see all the potential and mechanics that can be done here in Soulstice. The developers ‘Reply Game Studios’ better not mess this up. This can be big for sure. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see how big Soulstice becomes. Now Soulstice may have hybrids and wraiths but those beings are pathetic compared too… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Temtem is a massively multiplayer adventure game developed by ‘Crema‘ and published by ‘Humble Games‘. Temtem is said to be coming out the 6th of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PC. Temtem is definitely getting our attention. X35 Earthwalker has lots to say as he’s the expert but not everything should be said. Let’s take a look.
TemTem is really described as a “massively multiplayer creature-collection” game. Take one look at the Temtem trailer and you will instantly think of another big popular game/anime. We are not going to say which one though… okay fine, it’s Pokemon. The developers even admit that Temtem was inspired by Pokemon and we respect that. Now this is a big deal of course as being like the next Pokemon. There’s the biggest amounts of expectations. There’s more expectations and judgement here than you would get when Halo Infinite was going to be coming out. There’s so many factors. So many.
So here’s the quick story. It is like every kids dream to become a Temtem tamer. A Temtem tamer is basically a Pokemon trainer. You find and catch these creatures and go on a big adventure together with them. The location is Omninesia called the ‘Airborne Archipelago’ which is made up of 6 islands. So now it’s your turn to go on an adventure, meet new people and hopefully find and catch new creatures. Maybe the term in Temtem is ‘tame’ instead of catch.
There’s even a bad guy group. No group will be as iconic as Team Rocket Jesse and James. Temtem’s bad guys are called ‘Clan Belsoto’. They want to rule the whole Archipelago. What’s their ideology? Play the game and find out for yourselves. You lazy bums! Now Temtem does give us feelings of the game Tera. Temtem has far more focus on socialising and player interaction than Pokemon. There’s emotes, Rock Paper Scissors and many players can be seen running around and dong whatever. There’s vehicles to help you traverse the land and waters. You can ride Temtems and ACTUALLY SEE your character doing that.
We checked out some Temtem gameplay and it’w hast we expected. There’s also eight dojo leaders (gym leaders) who you need to take down and prove your skills. The battling does look quite cool. Standard battles but more active animations. Nothing too fancy yet in terms of mechanics. Will there be HM and TM? Are there side stories and multiple options? Are there different endings? Will Pokemon have personalities that actually matter and maybe effect how they relate to you? Will relationships with Temtem matter or no? Lots to think about. There’s a number of things we noticed and know but won’t speak on. Temtem has a lot to live up to and defeat. We want to see a game like this do well.
Overall Temtem looks like it’s going to be a very good game indeed. Games like this are wanted and appreciated. There’s so many factors that the developers, ‘Crema’ have to take into account. There needs to be many Temtems, many moves and a good battle system. Do your best developers. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear open for this game. TemTem many be the next Pokemon but it’s currently;y nothing compared to… the ‘Earth Walk!’
Hellpoint is a sci-fi action role playing game developed by ‘Cradle Games’ and published by ‘tinyBuild’. Hellpoint is said to be coming out the 12th of July 2022 on the Xbox Series X and PS5. It’s already out on previous gen consoles, Nintendo Switch, linux, mac and pc. Hellpoint went for that high difficulty formula that many players enjoy. Let’s take a look.
Getting straight to the point. Hellpoint is almost 2 years old. You should know the deal by now. If you liked Sekiro Shadows die twice, Lords of the Fallen, Mortal shell or Demon’s Souls then you should quite likely be feeling Hellpoint. You have health, stamina and another meter to manage too. You have heavy and fast attacks, can dodge, vanquish bosses in arenas etc. You know the drill.
Hellpoint coming to next sen consoles, Xbox Series X and PS5 players can expect an upgraded game. Expect better visuals, controls, frame rates and performance. Not only next gen upgrades but also the fact that there’s a new dlc called Blue Sun. So there’s something extra right there. Trailer down below.
Overall Hellpoint doesn’t look like our thing but the fans of Hellpoint should be happy. The best thing is that Hellpoint has multiplayer, so why not bring in a buddy to help you slay enemies. The developers ‘Cradle games’ are making some moves, especially with the couch coop. X35 Earthwalker will just have to wait and hear how this game does. Now Hellpoint might have dlc on the way but it won’t be as good as… the ‘Earth Walk!’
