Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Following the release of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Cloud’s Strife’s story continues with the release of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Following the party’s escape from Midgar, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will feature a more open-ended environment compared to Final Fantasy VII Remake’s linear progression system.

The Active-Time Battle (ATB) system makes its return, along with action-focused melee combat. Making its appearance in Episode InterMISSION is the Synergized Mechanic, which allows for members to sync up attacks.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth will come out for the PlayStation 5 on February 29.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and King Shark will take the spotlight with the release of Rocksteady Games’ Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

As one would expect with the title, players will be tasked with taking on the infamous Justice League, which is under the control of Brainiac.

Along the way, this action shooter will have players teaming up for four-player cooperative multiplayer shenanigans. To keep things unique, each character has access to two weapon classes, along with a unique melee combat style and traversal method. A skill tree encourages growth as well, and players can re-spec at their leisure.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will come out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 2.

Persona 3 Reload

The Dark Hour awaits once more with the release of P-Studio and Atlus West’s Persona 3 Reload.

A remake of 2006’s JRPG Persona 3, this title will once again have players joining the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad (S.E.E.S.) as they set out to defeat Shadows and climb Tartarus.

The development team has overhauled Persona 3 with the Reload release. Various graphical and functional updates have been made, along with new character designs and music. A number of quality of life changes have also been made to improve the overall experience.

Persona 3 Reload will come out for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 2.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink

The Granblue Fantasy franchise will feature a new action RPG with the release of Cygames and Xseed Games’ Granblue Fantasy: Relink in February.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink is far from a solo affair; its real-time combat supports up to four-player co-op. Each enemy and party formation has strengths and weaknesses, with Link Attacks and Chain Bursts helping out in a pinch.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink will come out for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC on February 1.

Skull and Bones will come out for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on February 16.

The post 5 Best Games of February 2024 appeared first on GamersHeroes.

When it came to Gamers Heroes’ 2023 Game of the Year Awards, we chose titles that stuck with us well after the credits rolled. Some took us on an adventure, some put a smile on our face, but all managed to make their mark in the industry for both 2023 and the years to come.

A few things to note:

• We don’t use multiple categories here at Gamers Heroes; We don’t want to give an exclusive award for a game on multiplatform


• Or put an indie game up for GOTY that doesn’t automatically win indie GOTY, or nominate a game for an indie award that isn’t indie.
• Or announce a cut-off date and then announce nominations a week before that date.
• Or nominate someone for something they didn’t actually do.

On that note, here are Gamers Heroes’ 2023 Game of the Year winners, in no particular order…

Hogwarts Legacy

The Wizarding World has made an impact in the worlds of literature, movies, and even candy, but there previously had yet to be a game that lived up to the legacy of The Boy Who Lived.

That is, until Avalanche Studios and WB Games performed some magic with the release of Hogwarts Legacy. Fans of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts series will be absolutely chuffed to see the hallowed Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and its surroundings in striking detail. Everything you’d expect is present and accounted for, from one’s house selection to classes to even trips to Hogsmeade.

However, it’s not all sunshine and butterbeer in this action RPG. Hogwarts Legacy features an original story set 100 years from the books, having players contend with the hostile goblin Ranrok, ancient secrets, and plenty of dangers. It’s a dream come true for all us muggles who dare to dream.

Hogwarts Legacy is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder

We’ll spare you the “wonder” puns and just say that Nintendo’s Super Mario Bros. Wonder is one of the best entries in the Super Mario Bros. series to date.

This is certainly no small feat – there are enough “New” entries in the series to make the concept feel old. However, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is just teeming with life, with a fresh new world in the form of the Flower Kingdom to explore.

As one would expect, a new title comes with new power-ups, and the chance to turn into an elephant or drill through the world changes things up a considerable deal. However, it’s the Wonder Flowers that put Super Mario Bros. Wonder ahead of other entries; every single level has an alternate reality that sets out to change platforming standards. From transformations to musicals, the creativity shines through until the day is saved – and then some with its robust post-game.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder once again proves that Mario is the king of the platforming genre. Much like his previous adventures did before, the amount of creativity and polish on display sets a new industry standard.Super Mario Bros. Wonder Review, Casey Scheld

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is available for the Nintendo Switch.

Baldur’s Gate 3

After a partial release came out back in 2020, the full release of Larian Studios’ Baldur’s Gate 3 is easily the best turn-based game of 2023.

The development team has done everything in their power to make sure Baldur’s Gate 3 stands out. Every single character in this immersive epic is voice acted and motion captured, companion characters have their own narrative, and there are even 46 suubclasses to choose from.

Baldur’s Gate 3’s flexible quest system made sure our experience was truly one of a kind. When we say all choices matter, we truly mean it; we sunk more than 90 hours across its three acts and dealt with the repercussions of our actions well after they occurred. When paired with its open world, it proves that Baldur’s Gate 3 is a masterclass of design.

We’re not alone in our accolades, either; the title has also won Game of the Year from the Golden Joystick Awards and The Game Awards – no small feat!

Those who huddled around weekly Dungeons & Dragons sessions will love Baldur’s Gate 3; no Dungeon Master required.

Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing short of a masterpiece. The story is incredible, the world gorgeous and immersive, voice-over and writing of the highest quality, an amazing soundtrack, everything comes together in near perfect harmony. It’s not only the best RPG of the year, it’s the RPG of a generation.Baldur’s Gate 3 Review, Blaine Smith

Baldur’s Gate 3 is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and GOG.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Six years after the seminal The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild set a new gold standard, Nintendo has raised the stakes once more with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The freedom from the protagonist Link’s previous adventure is still present and accounted for; Hyrule’s got plenty of Shrines, quests, recipes, and tasks that will command your attention.

However, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom triples its world size with the inclusion of the Sky and the Depths, each containing elements like Brightroot and floating islands. There’s also Zonai devices, and new abilities like the Ultrahand and Fuse encourage creativity.

Put simply, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom once again redefines the open world genre.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available for the Nintendo Switch.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

While the Star Wars franchise has seen a bit of fatigue as of late (we’re looking at you, Book of Boba Fett), Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts do Star Wars right with the release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order wowed us when it originally came out, and we were absolutely thrilled to continue Jedi Cal Kestis’ journey in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor. This protagonist’s Padawan days are well behind him; this action-adventure title features new stances (including dual-wield stances), a new Force stasis ability, and deeper character customization.

Cal’s open world in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor has also received a noticeable glow-up; players can explore optional areas, Jedi Meditation Chamber puzzles, and far more densely populated worlds. Rounding things out is an epic sci-fi story that pits players against the Galactic Empire once more.

This entry proves yet again that letting Respawn handle the Star Wars IP is the right call. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a Game of the Year contender in a very stacked year.Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Review, Johnny Hurricane

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Honorable Mentions

There were plenty of other releases that just barely did not make our 2023 Game of the Year Awards list. However, we did want to pay tribute to them with our “Honorable Mentions” category:

RoboCop: Rogue City

An 80s and 90s staple (we don’t talk about the 2014 movie), Teyon and Nacon make sure that RoboCop is done justice with RoboCop: Rogue City.

Setting out to protect and serve (naturally), we appreciated how it truly immersed us into its world. It’s not just the attention-to-detail – though we do appreciate the Auto 9 and Peter Weller reprising his role.

Rather, we loved how RoboCop: Rogue City got the little things down as well. From chasing down a stolen 6000 SUX to even the way RoboCop drives a police car, everything comes together to make RoboCop: Rogue City the ultimate love letter to fans of the series.

RoboCop Rogue City pays homage to its source material like no other. A faithful recreation of a beloved character and world over 30 years in the making. At its core, it’s a fantastic over-the-top 80s action shooter but dig a little deeper and you’ll find a dark, dystopian tale of man and machine more relevant today than ever.RoboCop: Rogue City Review, Blaine Smith

RoboCop: Rogue City is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

For the King II

We at Gamers Heroes can never get enough co-op action in our lives. IronOak Games and Curve Games have heard our pleas, releasing their co-op thriller For the King II to quench our dying thirst.

Roguelite and tabletop gameplay come together like peanut butter and chocolate, creating a delicacy that is easy to learn but hard to master. While For the King II doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but the advancement and progress of each class is absolutely stunning. It truly makes For the King II feel instantly familiar and charming, like coming back to a warm home after a cold days’ work.

However, the key standout is the inclusion of four player support. While the random events, new locations, new classes, and new weapons were all fine and dandy, bringing a fourth player along makes For the King II one of the best co-op experiences on the market today.

For The King 2 is the perfect sequel. It takes the very best components of its predecessor and uses those time-tested elements to raise the series to new heights. To put it simply, For The King 2 is one of the best strategy-based co-op experiences on the market today.For the King 2 Review, Blaine Smith

For the King II is available for the PC.

LEGO Fortnite

LEGO and Epic Games’ Fortnite are all about building – turns out, combining the two makes for the ultimate survival crafting adventure!

Much like the real-life blocks, building your village in LEGO Fortnite is an absolute blast. We had a fantastic time gathering elements from its world, surviving the elements, and recruiting villagers. It leads to an immersive system that’s easy to get lost in. Put simply, LEGO Fortnite features the best elements of the crafting genre.

The best part? New world building, gameplay features, and additional LEGO Style Outfits are slated for early 2024.

LEGO Fortnite is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Is there a specific video game that stood out to you in 2023? We’re all ears – let us know in the comments.

The post The Biggest Announcements from The Game Awards 2023 appeared first on GamersHeroes.

RoboCop: Rogue City

Players will be able to protect and serve with an action-packed trip to Old Detroit in Teyon and Nacon’ RoboCop: Rogue City.

This action-adventure title isn’t a simple retread; players will experience an original story set between RoboCop 2 and 3 that tells of “Project Afterlife.” With their signature Auto 9 in hand (complete with unlimited ammo), players can join Anne Lewis as they dish out justice. This love-letter even has Peter Weller reprising his role as RoboCop – just the thing for longtime fans.

RoboCop Rogue City pays homage to its source material like no other. A faithful recreation of a beloved character and world over 30 years in the making. At its core, it’s a fantastic over-the-top 80s action shooter but dig a little deeper and you’ll find a dark, dystopian tale of man and machine more relevant today than ever.RoboCop: Rogue City Review, Blaine Smith

RoboCop: Rogue City is available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Purchasing options can be found on the official RoboCop Rogue City website.

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed

After previously working with the Predator franchise, Illfonic proves that they’re not afraid of no ghosts with the release of Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed.

Allowing teams of four to live out their ghostbusting dreams, players can track down ghosts in the ultimate game of hide-and-seek as they take on different jobs as a new recruit. Feeling a bit more sinister? Players can also choose to designate somebody as a ghost to terrorize other players in its asynchronous multiplayer. No matter what role one chooses, ghosting will make them feel good.

Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Purchasing options can be found on the official Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed website.

Hogwarts Legacy

The wizarding world awaits with the release of Avalanche Studios and WB Games’ Hogwarts Legacy.

Set before the books and movies in the 1800s, players will be able to enter the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and immerse themselves in this open world. Everything Potterheads have come to know and love can be done in this title, from choosing one’s house to making impromptu trips to Hogsmeade. For those that can’t get enough Harry Potter, this is your game.

Hogwarts Legacy is available for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Purchasing options can be found on the official Hogwarts Legacy website.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

For those eagerly awaiting the next entry in the Spider-Verse animated movie series, Insomniac Games and PlayStation Studios are here to bridge the gap with Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

The multiple Spider-Man (Spider-Men?) are here, with both Peter Parker and Miles Morales as playable characters with countless suits to match. Kraven the Hunter and the Venom symbiote also make an appearance in a New York City that’s just waiting to be explored. No matter what one chooses, players will really feel like Spider-Man (too easy).

Purchasing options for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 can be found on the official PlayStation website.

The post Best Christmas Gifts For Gamers 2023 – For Movie Lovers appeared first on GamersHeroes.

Our Best Christmas Gifts For Gamers 2023 for Xbox Series X|S fans will let players rock out, explore the far reaches of space, and even race for the finish.

Hi-Fi RUSH

Tango Gameworks switches from creepy crawly horror to raucous rhythm combat with the surprise release of Hi-Fi RUSH.

It might seem like a typical hack-and-slash title, but those willing to give wannabe rocker Chai a shot will be treated to a system that rewards those with a keen ear. Consider the title a greatest hits album, albeit an interactive one – after all, who doesn’t like The Black Keys and Nine Inch Nails?

Hi-Fi Rush is a stone-cold stunner, one with gameplay in lockstep with the beat. While finding one’s groove takes some getting used to, those with a keen ear will be in tune in no time flat.Hi-Fi RUSH Review, Casey Scheld

>Hi-Fi RUSH is available for the Xbox Series X|S and PC. Purchasing options can be found on the official Bethesda website.

Starfield

Fallout and The Elder Scrolls are household names at this point, but it’s time to add a third game series to Bethesda Game Studios’ rich pedigree: Starfield.

From the moment players begin their journey across the stars, they will be able to have unparalleled freedom as they explore more than 1,000 different planets. Players can also recruit players for their crew (or even romance them if that’s their thing), customize their character to their liking, and can even commandeer spaceships.

Simply put, Starfield is Bethesda’s greatest-ever RPG. The living, breathing universe they have created is one of the most impressive in the gaming space and the sound effects and musical score push the immersion to near perfection. If only I could stop speaking to the back of NPC’s heads.Starfield Review, Blaine Smith

Starfield is available for the Xbox Series X|S and PC. Purchasing options can be found on the official Starfield website.

Forza Motorsport

Turn 10 Studios once again gets behind the wheel with the release of Xbox Game Studios’ Forza Motorsport.

Gearheads will have an absolute field day with this title – this title features more than 500 real-world cars, 20 tracks with fully dynamic time-of-day, and photo realistic visuals. Don’t expect this to be a one-and-done type of title either; Forza Motorsport also includes Featured Multiplayer events, free Play, and AI-powered Forza Race Regulations.

Purchasing options can be found on the official Xbox website.

Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition

Relic Entertainment and Xbox Game Studios’ award-winning Age of Empires IV makes its way to consoles with the Anniversary Edition of the title.

This is far from a simple retread; two new civilizations, eight new maps, new masteries, and even sneaky cheats have all been included. Of course, the title has received a noticeable facelift as well, rendering one’s empire at a shiny 4K resolution. For those in the empire business, this is the definitive edition of Age of Empires IV.

Purchasing options for Age of Empires IV: Anniversary Edition can be found on the official Xbox website.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide

The hive city Tertium awaits with the release of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide for the Xbox Series X|S.

Players will be able to bring their friend along for some good ol’ fashioned co-op action. Gun play and melee come together with its hybrid combat system, with Stray Rejects, Chaos Hounds, and Moebian Trappers just waiting to be taken down. With the ever-changing loadouts and deep customization options, this is one title that’ll truly grow with players.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is a worthy successor to Vermintide. Fans of good first-person melee combat shouldn’t hesitate to check this one out.Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Review, Johnny Hurricane

Purchasing options can be found on the official Warhammer 40,000: Darktide website.

All of these titles are also on Xbox Game Pass – subscriptions also make a great gift!

Our Best Christmas Gifts For Gamers 2023 for PlayStation 5 fans will make sure greatness awaits.*

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Peter Parker and Miles Morales are back in action with the release of Insomniac Games and PlayStation Studios’ Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

Players will have to contend with both Kraven the Hunter and the Venom symbiote as they explore a New York City that is filled to the brim with action. This isn’t a simple 1:1 remake of the map found in Marvel’s Spider-Man; new areas include Brooklyn and Queens, alongside new abilities and Spider-Man suits.

Purchasing options for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 can be found on the official PlayStation website.

Final Fantasy XVI

With roots dating back to the original Nintendo Entertainment System back in the 90s, the world of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy has a timed exclusive new entry on the PlayStation 5 with the release of Final Fantasy XVI.

This adventure treads new ground with its action-based combat system, featuring summoned monsters called Eikons alongside both melee and magic attacks. The twin continents of Valisthea are yours to explore throughout its segmented open environments, along with a growing conflict that only the protagonist Clive Rosfield can solve.

Of course, for those looking for a dash of nostalgia, Chocobos, recurring enemies, and an absolutely suave version of Cid (voiced by Ralph Ineson) are all present and accounted for.

Purchasing options for the title can be found on the official Final Fantasy XVI website.

Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores

New characters and experiences await in Guerrilla Games’ and PlayStation Studios’ Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores, an expansion of last year’s immersive game.

Players will traverse the ruins of Los Angeles, dubbed the “Burning Shores” as Aloy as they set out to pursue the awakening Metal Devil. New characters like Walter Londra and Gerrit keep things lively, while returning characters like Gildun ensure that players will come across some familiar faces.

Just note that this DLC is for veterans only; players can only enter the Burning Shores after completing the main quest, up to and including Singularity.

Purchasing options for Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores can be found on the official PlayStation website.

Forspoken

Described as a “narrative-driven adventure by the publisher, the open world of Athia awaits. Players can travel any where at any time, utilizing Frey’s magical powers in a fantasy tale that is sure to engross players. While critic feedback has been mixed on the title, those looking for something fresh will find it in this new IP.

My time with Forspoken was a strange one. Elements of the game are fantastic, with an engrossing story and a gorgeous world. However, it all just feels segmented, like nothing really wants to work together. Forspoken is a good game and one I would recommend to most open-world fans, but it just feels so close to greatness that I can’t help but walk away disappointed.Forspoken Review, Blaine Smith

Purchasing options can be found on the official Forspoken website.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The expansive world of Hyrule awaits once more in Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, a follow-up to 2017’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

This is far from a simple retread; players will be able to explore a floating sky world and an underground world known as the Depths. Series protagonist Link can also use a number of Zonai devices in combat, propulsion, and exploration. The world is your oyster, leading to a dynamic setting where no two experiences are the same.

The unique power-ups and tight platforming action are present and accounted for, but this title exudes innovation and charm in every breath.

Pikmin 4

The first new game in the series in 10 years, Nintendo’s Pikmin 4 once again features a wild world full of puzzles, time management, and threats.

Players will once again be able to control different Pikmin that have their own perks, but new Pikmin like the Glow Pikmin and Ice Pikmin change the formula on its head with nighttime expeditions and frozen water traversal. When all else fails, the new canine-like companion Oatchi is sure to put a smile on your face and get you out of a pinch.

Purchasing options for the digital version can be found on the official Nintendo website.

Fire Emblem Engage

Tactical role-playing meets deep storytelling with Intelligent Systems and Nintendo’s Fire Emblem Engage.

Continuing the series’ legacy, players will control Alear, who finds themselves in a conflict with the Fell Dragon Sombron. 12 magic rings that contain copies of previous Fire Emblem characters are at one’s disposal, along with deep gameplay that encourages forward thinking. Rounding things out is a new art style and 3D animation models that serve as the perfect showpiece for that Nintendo Switch OLED that Santa also brought.
