Persona 3 Reload (Nintendo Switch 2) Review
Persona 3 Reload is going to be available on the Nintendo Switch 2 in two days. As someone who has now played Persona 3 Portable and Persona 3 Reload a grand total of six times in the past few years, I am legitimately torn. On one hand, I am ecstatic that Switch 2 owners who have yet to play one of 2024’s best remasters now get to. On the other hand, it’s hard to ignore that the Switch 2 port of R...[Read More]

Persona 5: The Phantom X (Chumps Preview)
Chumps Preview is a special kind of post where we unofficially preview games in Early Access, Beta, or are otherwise “unfinished.” This kind of preview is meant to be a first impression rather than a definitive review where we provide a rating to determine a game’s value. As such, we fully expect a game covered in a Chumps Preview to have room for improvement, some bugginess/incompleteness, and ot...[Read More]
RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army (PS5) Review
It makes little sense to me as to why the Devil Summoner series has remained under the radar for so long despite Shin Megami Tensei and Persona titles rising to prominence over the past decade or so. It’s not like today’s players can’t handle JRPGs. In fact, the opposite is true, especially in 2025. I mentioned several times last year that now is the best time to be an RPG player, and it remains t...[Read More]

Metaphor: ReFantazio Review
“Humans are the real monsters.” The thought resonated with me early into Metaphor: ReFantazio‘s narrative, one that not so subtly works to tackle and deconstruct themes from our own reality, a reality many would wish to escape for any other kind of fantastical existence. No doubt Atlus and Studio Zero did not plan to release their work in proximity to such a tumultuous inflection...[Read More]
Persona 3 Reload: Episode Aigis – The Answer Review
It feels like kismet to return to a Persona game right at the start of a new school year. While I am not in school, I find myself once again immersed in Persona 3 Reload’s universe. This time, though, I’m not replaying Persona 3 for the umpteenth time. Instead, I find myself playing Episode Aigis, epilogue of Persona 3 Reload. The Answer was released as the epilogue to the PS2’s Persona 3 FES back...[Read More]

Earlier this evening ATLUS hosted a developer livestream which offered viewers an expanded look at the upcoming full-scale fantasy RPG Metaphor: ReFantazio. The stream, hosted by Director Katsura...[Read More]
Unicorn Overlord Review (Nintendo Switch)
It’s been incredibly hard to review Unicorn Overlord. I don’t say this because the game was difficult (it is), nor because of it being complicated (it’s that, too). I say it because I legitimately struggled to put the game down to put my thoughts to paper. Five hours passed in a blink of an eye. Another afternoon came and went. Then a weekend was absorbed into Unicorn Overlord. I’ve spent more tim...[Read More]
Persona 3 Reload Review (PS5)
We’re not even one month into 2024 and two stellar remasters are available for players. A few weeks ago, I shared my thoughts on The Last of Us Part II Remastered on the PS5. This week, Persona 3 Reload will hit your consoles for current Persona fans and new players to enjoy. It’s been a long time coming and it’s been so worth the wait. I will admit that I was surprised to see the Persona 3 Reload...[Read More]
