GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- is a fighting game and the seventh game in the main arch. Developed and produced by Arch System Works, I have mixed feelings about this one. At one point I liked it, then I wanted to delete it. Now, I am a huge fan of fighting games
All the way back in 1985, the Capcom classic ‘Ghosts ‘n Goblins’ emerged in the arcades and became notorious for its punishing and unforgiving, but addictive gameplay which had many players inserting just one more credit to try their luck and complete their quest. The game saw various sequels and
Picture this, it’s 1898 and you are relaxing by the fire in your Welsh cottage and you receive a letter from your girlfriend. A simple request, journey to her family’s lovely Hotel on Sker Island and bring her home. Slightly nervous as you have never met her family, you pack
The Dark Pictures Anthology by Supermassive Games has taken the team at MKAU Gaming by surprise with its horror themes and quick decision making, to the point where even Stace has picked up the titles and played through.

Since Covid hit, we, the gamers, have been quietly waiting for a solid RPG to come and eat all our time up. Games have been quite scarce with deadlines being pushed back, production slowing down, and projects just being canned altogether. Hype is at fever pitch at the moment for
Has that axe been gathering a bit of dust lately? Well, it’s time to clean it off and set sail for medieval Ireland, to bloody it up like a good little Viking. It has been a hot minute since the release of Assassins Creed: Valhalla, 6 months to be exact,
Recently, the lovely folks over at Bethesda invited MKAU to their hands-off digital event for DEATHLOOP, an exclusive title promised back at E3 in 2019. Presented by Arkane Lyon’s very own Dinga Bakaba (Game Director) and Sébastien Mitton (Art Director), we were treated to some very impressive in-game footage and
The definition of GTFO perfectly sums up the atmosphere, intensity, and general gameplay that is the GTFO the game. There is even an encouraging little disclaimer on the Steam page that states “Very Challenging experience, probably too hard for most players”. GTFO is not for the faint-hearted, but for fans
R-Type Final 2 is a horizontal-scrolling, shooter game developed and published by Granzella Inc. and is a direct sequel to R-Type Final, which was released in 2004. This is the newest instalment in over a decade and it is available on all major platforms. For this review, MKAU played on
NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139… what a title, but don’t worry, I will not be writing it out in its entirety again, it is too much of a mouthful. Developed by Toylogic and Published by Square Enix, this new version of the classic NieR Replicant revamps and remakes the original. It follows
Developed by Dang! And published by Devolver Digital, ‘Boomerang X’ has no planned release date on Steam, which breaks my heart because I couldn’t recommend this game enough. Boomerang X is all about small/medium/big arena fights with a boomerang that you get to toss and teleport while using a couple
This is it, my friends. Definitive proof that, despite what many of my partners have tried to reassure me, size really does matter. At least it certainly does when you’re a rapidly shrinking scientist doing your best to concoct a cure! Brought to us by the developers at Mazen Games,
We’ve watched the original 1995 ‘Mortal Kombat’ more times than we can possibly remember. The sequel to that movie, however, well, we don’t speak of the sequel ‘Mortal Kombat: Annihilation’. Moving on. Now 2021 has brought with it a new Mortal Kombat movie. It is not a sequel in any
In a world of modern-day shooters, smash and grab PVP, and intense story-driven action-adventure games, the classic puzzle platformers tend to take a backseat, but rummage around behind the seats and you’ll often find some long, lost gems hidden away. Such is the game of Space Otter Charlie; a blink-and-you’ll-regret-you-missed-it
Oddworld: Soulstorm, developed by Oddworld Inhabitants is the newest installment of the Oddworld series and a re-imagining of Abe’s Exoddus. Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee was I believe the very first PlayStation game I ever owned when I got a PS1 for my birthday in 1997. As mentioned earlier this is the
“What Comes After” by Rolling Glory Jam and Fahmitsu, isn’t an incredibly long game but it is a game that will make you look at the world for the better, something we all definitely need in this trying time. What Comes After opens up the heart and the mind; a
The World War 2 genre of gaming is one of the most revisited and beloved settings in gaming. Much the same as revisiting the past, Enlisted reminded me of a simpler time, back when I would devote an entire night to conquest on Battlefield 1942. Developed by Darkflow Software and
Bethesda’s DOOM franchise has been around for a while now, from its humble beginnings in basic 3D corridors with .gif enemies, to its most recent edition with ray tracing and high-poly enemies and environments. It is certainly one of Bethesda’s best-known titles, and for good reason; it is incredible. DOOM
Monster Hunter Rise is the sixth main installment to the franchise made by Capcom. It delivers the Monster Hunter hits to be expected and is out now on the Nintendo Switch, with the PC version set for early 2022 release. I will not be using the trend of World vs
Universal Pictures’ ‘Nobody’ tells the story of a former FBI agent, who has long left his old career behind to start a family and live a normal life. He keeps his past a secret from his family and friends until one night he had no choice but to utilize his
For as long as I can remember, the Tim Burton animation style has always made my skin crawl just by looking at it. Unfold Games have masterfully replicated this format and continued the tradition of making my skin crawl with unease. This isn’t the first time we have reviewed DARQ
‘Bladed Fury’ published and developed by NEXT Studios (another Tencent studio might I add), is certainly not inventing the wheel but with its simplistic hack and slash qualities and manageable RPG elements is certainly a dang good time. In a feudal China, warring dynasties fight for power, and dark magic
DOOM Eternal was by far easily my game of the year last year. It was fun, challenging, and came jam-packed with so many enemies to Rip and Tear, but that’s now come to an end with the release of the second and final DLC, The Ancient Gods: Part Two. The
Check out this little legend of a robot, who wants nothing more than to be a tiny hero! Brought to us by Redstart Interactive, ‘Get-A-Grip Chip’ is an adorable, little 2D platformer where you control a little robot with a grappling hook/clamp/thingy attached to its head, using it to swing
The most highly anticipated match of 2021 has arrived. Warner Bros. and Legendary bring together ‘Godzilla vs. Kong’, the fourth movie in the MonsterVerse franchise and the sequel to both ‘Godzilla: King of the Monsters’ and ‘Kong: Skull Island’. The two gigantic beasts each have incredibly long histories spanning almost
Eximius: Seize the Frontline is a unique cross between first-person shooters and strategy-like tactical games, created and published by Ammobox Studios. Its very unique detailings and generic tactical gear create an interestingly developed game that has had the dedication of its developers and artists. Eximius: Seize the Frontline is set
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Second Coming. Much like the main character of the game, Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning is a revival of something gone to the past. As one of the best RPG’s of the last generation, Re-Reckoning is a nostalgic hit for the elders and an
Mortal Shell is developed by Cold Symmetry and published by Playstack, and they have made it so that owners of the core version of Mortal Shell can upgrade for free to the enhanced version for Playstation 5, and Xbox Series S|X. Mortal Shell Enhanced edition is here and will deliver
