This past week looks to have been a pretty decent one on Steam, seeing as several high profile games were just released. The biggest would probably have to be Nier: Automata. You may (or may not) recognize Automata as the sequel to the somewhat forgettable 2010 original. Since Cavia, the developer of the first game, was disbanded shortly after it was released, acclaimed developer PlatinumGames was tapped for the sequel. Judging by all the positive review scores and praise it has been garnering, it seems that PlatinumGames' expertise at making enjoyable action games was just the shot in the arm the franchise needed.
Also out this week, a remastered version of the hit Nintendo 64 game, Turok 2, a port of the Japanese arcade and PlayStation fighting game, Chaos Code, and another entry in the kunoichi hack-and-slash series, Senran Kagura. Glory to mankind! Jump past the break to see more of this week's new releases.
