I lost my soul
A preference for bringing novel experiences to the Sony Interactive Entertainment table shines in this upcoming action-adventure RPG from Ultizero Games. There is an evil empire and a resistance group called Glimmers who fight its oppression.
It may seem like a bit of a cliché, but the main character, Kazer and his companion arena certainly not. When they attempt to rescue their former sister Louisa from the hands of Voldrax, a mysterious group of invaders, they bring transforming weapons and other cool abilities to the field. Each of them comes with a sure-fire, unique motivation and backstory that brings interesting stories back to life, making this title an exciting and potentially dumb mix of highly addictive stories and gameplay.

One of the wrong choices can help ease the tension surrounding your choice by allowing the newly introduced tuning point mechanics to turn the clock back and try another pass.
With a focus on QTE, real-time combat, stealth, a bunch of versatile tools, we wait enough for players to bravely tackle the threat of Tau Seti F, a planet that crew members must explore to survive by removing them from the committee. This is a premise and gameplay loop combo that I’m extremely excited to try out in October 2025.

Set in an alternative timeline where corporate profits dominate most of society, the new first-person action RPG ensures that this new outing is based on the original title in a way that makes this a much more ambitious proposal.
That’s good news, considering we explore Arcadia’s newly introduced colonies as agents of the Earth Command, and explore the mystical rifts while revealing conflicts between the vested interests of the region. It has the creation of adventures that fuse divergent narrative paths, combat and stealth in stories that can very well change our perceptions of the world around us as we discover more of Arcadia’s internal conflict.

Besides the more realistic visual canvas, there are plenty of quality of life improvements to make the most of the current system, but the new style control scheme can bring refreshing changes from the controls of the original game.

It also brings a unique twist to a traditional soul-like formula, requiring players to defeat their evil versions when they die under certain conditions and regaining lost experience points is even more challenging if they get the wrong card. At the time of writing, it’s just two weeks since it was released, and this is something like souls where you can find a place among the genre’s biggest hits.
