Last week slipped a few surprising releases under our noses. Namco’s arcade release "Family Tennis" joins the Archives, while Ys II appears again for the EggConsole. Unexpectedly, the roguelike dungeon crawler Overdungeon from Pocketpair made an entrance. Yes, Pocketpair—the developer known for always being in Early Access—managed a full release with this one.
The start of 2025 has been loaded with remastered RPGs. Following last week’s Ys Oath in Felghana/Freedom Wars Remastered, we’re now getting Tales of Graces F, itself a remake from the old Wii catalog. Nintendo isn’t lagging far behind, offering Donkey Kong Country Returns HD as a notable re-release for the first quarter. Also joining the lineup is Playism’s Blade Chimera, grabbing attention as a former Indie World standout.
Aside from another Kairosoft gem and an EggConsole title that remains a mystery due to language barriers, that just about rounds out the week.
