Member Dead Rising?
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddessis launching soon on July 19 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and PC. It will also be a day one release on Xbox Game Pass. You’ll be facing off against demons called the Seethe, within the darkness of night, protecting the villagers around you and the Maiden of the mountain Yoshiro. It’s a mix of action and strategy as your character slashes enemies in a dance-like formation. You’ll be controlling the villagers, who have their own roles to add to the battle like a long-ranged archer.
Despite the reported terrible sales of prior iOS ports (viaMobileGamer.biz), Capcom’s still going ahead with the release of Resident Evil 7 biohazard on iPhones, iPads, and Mac systems. Hopefully, this one does a little better as it’s one of Capcom’s best games in the last decade. Our review said, “it immerses the player so well into a terrifying world of horrors thanks to the polish, initially intense combat sequences and numerous memorable sequences that range from simple exploration to grand, over-the-top boss fights.” It also said, “Resident Evil fans and horror fans alike will find plenty to encourage and engross as they push, crawl and fight their way through a bold new step for the classic series.” Would that experience translate to a phone or tablet, however, when most iOS users expect fast, casual titles?
Capcom’s One of the Best Publishers Right Now
Capcom has been on a roll lately. Last year, it wasMetacritic’s highest-rated publisheroverall. Street Fighter 6 was a return to form for the Japanese publisher’s fighting game output, and Resident Evil 4’s remake lived up to the original. The remake actually made Resident Evil 4 playable for a modern audience as it removed the tank controls for a more fluid third-person shooter experience. There weren’t any annoying quick-time events either.
Sometime in 2024, this Japanese company will delight old-school fighting game fans as it’s releasing amassive collection of Marvel vs. Capcom titles, many of them unavailable on consoles since the PS3 era. They’ll be taken for a ride, for sure.
