Remastered strength.
After a brief delay, the latest UK charts are in and while all of the familiar faces remain at the top, Prime Day sales have shaken things up elsewhere.
The top three are unchanged this time around, with Hogwarts Legacy, EA Sports FC 24 and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD claiming the podium. The only real surprises in the top ten this week are the inclusion of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown at ninth thanks to some recent sales — considering it hasn’t even made the top 40 for a while, that’s not bad going — and The Witcher III: Wild Hunt Complete Edition making the jump from 37th to tenth.

Starry-eyed.
Photos capture a moment in time with full objectivity. They can defy our version of events, and settle ‘that’s not how it happened’ arguments. In these cases, you could say fitting a photo into one’s memory becomes a…puzzle.
For this review’s sake, please think about that metaphor, because it’s the premise of The Star Named EOS. Silver Lining Studio and PLAYISM have delivered a puzzler built into an emotional narrative. And, like a photo, this game is just a brief snapshot, yet it manages to tell an in-depth story.

“Mega Man is one of our highly-valued IPs”.
Mega Man has received a lot of collections in recent years, but there hasn’t actually been a new mainline entry in the series since the release of Mega Man 11 in 2018. It seems there is no need to worry though, as Capcom has once again reassured fans that this classic series is still a big part of its plans going forward.
During its 45th General Shareholders meeting, Capcom mentioned how Mega Man is still one of the company’s most “highly-valued IPs” and it’s always “considering how to create games for it on an ongoing basis” (thanks, Rockman Corner).

More improvements to frame rate and stability.
The RPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes wasn’t in the best state when it first arrived on the Switch but the team behind the game has slowly improved the experience over time. Following a patch earlier this month, the “DAY60 Patch” has now been rolled out for all platforms including the Switch.

Unfair fight.
Publisher Devolver Digital and developer Skeleton Crew Studio have revealed Forestrike, a kung-fu roguelike all about solving puzzles and landing punches.
Set to launch on Switch next year, Forestrike will put you in the shoes of Yu, a martial artist on a mission across the country to save his Emperor. As you might imagine, there will be a fair amount of fighting along the way, but this isn’t your usual action-focused roguelike as you’ll be relying on Yu’s ‘Foresight’ ability to play out combat encounters ahead of time and learn how to escape them unscathed.

Bold folds.
We have mused on the idea of a ‘Paper Zelda’ game before, but ‘Paper Pokémon’? That’s not something we ever thought we needed. Until today, that is.
Animator and artist Spyrook has created a Pokémon-meets-Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door mash-up and it looks incredible. In the above video, you can witness a duo battle between Riolu / Ralts and Mawile / “Eevee” (though there’s something shifty going on with the latter), lovingly recreated in Paper Mario’s theatre setting.
