Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation Review: Using a Phoenix Down on Nostalgia
With a little help from Nintendo, Square Enix has resurrected a fallen soldier from a popular franchise, enlisting the help of the DS along the way. Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation is a breath of fresh air from their old, musty library; a remake that is both nostalgic and refreshing, incorporating new elements of gameplay, and boasting a visual makeover for the American premiere.

New Releases: Marvel vs Capcom 3, Dragon Quest VI, Hyperdimension Neptunia, More
This week it’s all about RPGs, except for the return of a favorite fighting franchise…
The Marvel and Capcom universes will be colliding in a battle for one-on-one fighting supremacy again with the release of Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds this week for the PS3 and Xbox 360.
But every other major release will be much more enticing to RPG fans everywhere including Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation on the DS. Once Dragon Quest VI makes its way into stores on the 14th, it’ll mark the final game in the franchise’s main series to make its way across the Pacific. It just took a little over 15 years.
And speaking RPGs that are hard to find in America, Square Enix is bringing Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together to the PSP this week. Tactics Ogre has always been hard to come by in collector’s circles, so this new version means that everyone who wants to play it will finally get the chance to.
Also available this week is Hyperdimension Neptunia for the PS3. The game tells the story of the console war as if it were a typical Japanese RPG. Oh yeah, and a nearly naked girl representing “Sega” is the hero. Man, how can you not love NIS America?
Finally, Frictional’s Amnesia: The Dark Descent, which was originally released in 2010, will receive a retail release this week.
The full list of the rest of this week’s new releases can be found after the break. (more…)
