THE KING OF FIGHTERS XV
The latest version of SNK’s long-running
fighting game series is now finally almost
upon us. It throws two new characters and
new systems, including ‘shatter strikes’,
into the mix, as well as promising an
“explosive climax” for the ongoing
storyline and better-than-ever netcode.


RELEASE February 2022


DRAGON QUEST X OFFLINE
The original Dragon Quest X was an MMO
spin-off of the beloved JRPG series,
released only in Japan. Now it’s getting an
‘offline’ re-release, allowing players to
take on its content solo at their own pace.
This version’s not confirmed for English
release yet either, but we’re hopeful.

KERBAL SPACE PROGRAM 2


T


he last few years have
led many of us to
fantasise about quitting
this planet altogether
and shooting ourselves
into space. So, what better game to
look forward to than one which
demands significant attention to detail
in order to distract you from daily life,
and allows you to live out the fantasy
of space travel?
You’re once again tasked with
overseeing a whole space program
(clue’s in the name), the little green

Kerbals wisely or otherwise trusting you
with their lives. Following feedback from
the first game, new tutorials and
improved UI will (hopefully) better help
players understand what they’re
supposed to do and how the heck
they’re supposed to do it. Those already
comfortable with the systems will be
pleased to hear that the addition of
colonies brings with it resource
gathering and new building
opportunities. Also: there’s multiplayer!
How exactly that’ll work hasn’t yet been
revealed, but the idea is intriguing.
