Okage: Shadow King (PS4)


I don't remember this game from the first time round, it was a PS2 game released in Japan and USA in 2001.

Pharaoh Rebirth+ (PC)


Another pixelly 2D platformer, by the looks of it.

Corona Blossom (PC)


From Frontwing, the company who made the Grisaia games - an announcement via Facebook:


*Facebook Exclusive!*
We're announcing Frontwing's latest project, right here, before anywhere else! And yes, even Japanese websites!
The title will be "Corona Blossom," and it is planned for digital release on Steam before its physical release in Japan!
The staff working on this project include character artist Nanaca Mai, the illustrator for the SD art for the Grisaia series, and Yuhi Nanao, a scenario writer who worked on "Hatsuru Koto Naki Mirai Yori" (Hatsumira, or From the Future Undying). The two previously worked together on "Yukikoi Melt."
There will be English subtitles, provided by our in-house translation team. Don't worry, we have native English speakers. Watch this page for the official announcement!
For more information, please visit the game's official website when it goes live in April!
To give you all a little taste of what's to come, here is a little teaser image (still in development)!
