Has it been another month already? We apologize for missing posts the last couple of weeks. Those responsible have been sacked.
So No Man's Sky is finally out, and the reception has been anything but universal (ironically). While there are those who seem to be disappointed by a lack of features that were never explicitly advertised, others are enjoying the game for what it does offer (primarily, a fully explorable and incredibly vast procedurally-generated universe). Unfortunately, there does seem to have been some developer deception about the game's apparently non-existent multiplayer component. That being said, the game still may well be worth checking out, but given the game's already divisive reputation, waiting for a discount is probably the best course of action.
Also out in the last four weeks, a unique-looking swimming simulator from the art director of Flower and Journey, a new, yet classically-inspired, Square Enix RPG, and an expanded PS4 port of a 2014 PS3 JRPG. Why not try a holiday in Sweden this year? Jump past the break to see more of this past month's new releases.
