Posted on February 11, 2019 by John Scalzo

It’s time once again for some big new sequels as a few of gaming’s biggest franchises will receive new installments this week.

After several very long years in development, Microsoft will bring Crackdown 3 to the Xbox One this week (and it’ll also be available to download for Windows 10 PCs). Players will take control of Commander Jaxon, a superpowered Agent played by Terry Crews, and blast their way through a futuristic city to stop a ruthless criminal empire. There’s also the option to compete in Wrecking Zone, a multiplayer mode that asks teams of Agents to tear down the opposing team’s stronghold as fast as they can.

PS4 and Xbox One owners will also find a strange new future in Ubisoft’s Far Cry: New Dawn. Set within a post-apocalyptic world based on Far Cry 5’s Hoep County, New Dawn will pit players against highwaymen and their ruthless leaders, The Twins. Far Cry: New Dawn will also be available to download for the PC.

Yet another dystopian future is on display in 4A Games’s Metro Exodus for the PS4 and Xbox One this week. The third entry in the series based on Dmitry Glukhovsky’s novels will further explore the Russian Federation during the aftermath of a nuclear war. An Xbox One X 1TB + Metro Exodus Bundle will also be available on store shelves, and the game can also be purchased for the PC exclusively through the Epic Games Store.

Finally this week, Bandai Namco will release Jump Force, an anime-inspired crossover fighting game for the PS4 and Xbox One (and downloadable for the PC), and NIS America will release the adventure platformer The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince for the PS4 and Switch.

The full list of this week’s new retail releases can be found after the break. (more…)

NIS America will bring The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince to the PS4 and Switch in 2019

Posted on August 7, 2018 by John Scalzo

NIS America is back with another visually inventive game from across the Pacific. This time around, the prolific publisher’s in-house development team is ready to announce The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince.

The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince is a puzzle platformer that’s currently in the works for the PS4 and Switch. It’s also an “enchantingly dark fairy tale” about the friendship and love between the two titular characters:

Alone in the forest, a wolf sings her song. Mesmerized by this beautiful voice, a little prince from a nearby kingdom wanders into the dark forest every night to find its source. However, the little prince startles the wolf during one of his visits, and she swipes her long claws in fear and blinds him.

Now, the blind prince must trek through the dangerous forest to find a cure and restore his sight. The wolf, transformed into a beautiful princess, shall be his guide. With her ability to transform at will, she will protect the little prince at all cost. But can a blind prince survive in an all-seeing forest?

The first trailer for The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince has been embedded above, and fans of the game’s gorgeous visuals can expect to see it on store shelves sometime in 2019.
