Doesn't beat Demon's Souls, whose title is confusing as it can mean multiple demonic souls, or a demon with multiple souls inside for reasons.

The name Demons' Souls would have referred to "multiple demonic souls"; the singular possessive Demon's Souls was used intentionally.

Wow, kind of surprising about Baten Kaitos coming to PC. Never thought I'd see the day a Monolith game left a Nintendo platform. Great news!

Acquire has seven titles in development, including independently developed and jointly developed titles, company president Takuma Endo told Famitsu.
Only three upcoming titles have been officially announced by Acquire: XALADIA: Rise of the Space Pirates X2, Class of Heroes 2 Remaster, and AMEDAMA in cooperation with IzanagiGames.
According to Endo, IzanagiGames is the developer of AMEDA, while Acquire is in charge of planning. Endou described it as a “somewhat unusual arrangement,” but stressed that its development resources were at capacity.
One of Acquire’s unannounced titles is a dungeon crawler, which Endo describes as cute, but “quite difficult.” It tells the story of a girl—an ancient weapon—who awakens in a dungeon.

Another new title incorporates elements of card game-esque deck building. Internal beta testing is already underway and the reception has been positive. While it was initially planned to be a digital-only game, Acquire is considering a Japan-only physical release. Depending on how much it sells, the company may also consider doing a physical release overseas.

A new title in cooperation with Aniplex was also recently teased. According to Endo, more information will be announced this winter.
Acquire plans to exhibit XALADIA: Rise of the Space Pirates X2 and another new title at PAX West 2023, which will run from September 1 to 4 at the Seattle Convention Center in Seattle, Washington. The company also plans to share various information around Tokyo Game Show 2023, which will run from September 21 to 24 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan, including the new title featuring deckbuilder elements.

Insert Title Here Strap Yourselves In Codex Year of the Donut Codex+ Now Streaming! Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is.
Damn, CoH2 is remastered now? At this rate we'll see CoH3 remastered before Vic Ireland releases the original CoH3 localization he apparently completed and has ready to play.

Download? But the game's not done.​


Yes. The full game is not complete, but as a special treat for the 2023 Mother Direct, the Encore team has been hard at work to finish a demo for any fans or interested watchers to play! We can't thank everyone who's supported this project over the past few years enough for their support, so we hope this shows our gratitude.

For Windows, for Mac, for Linux and beyond, please enjoy Mother Encore!

The demo build is available via the Encore Discord or Google Drive.

^There's a whole Mother-fest event in Youtube, Mother Direct, mentioned in the post above, with lots of Mother-adjacent games... Including at least one furry one that looks hideous and bad, fittingly. As well as a new curator for games of this style.

I'm a big fan of Mother 1, and Encore is shaping up to be a really great remake. Liking almost everything I see on it. Here's hoping it won't take 6 years to make.

River City: Rival Showdown is getting ported to the pc. Played through it last year using Citra so here's to hoping they port Tokyo Rumble which doesn't emulate so well. It's an interesting sequel to River City Ransom with a tight 3 day schedule in which to explore the city and reach a handful of different endings.
