The Dynasty warriors In the next entry, the series looks as epic as ever. As a nameless hero, you enter a field of hundreds of warriors. You’ll employ quick combos and skills called arts to defeat these enemies. The visual madness on screen also has a strategic element as you order your allies to attack or cavalry charge to victory (or defeat). You’ll also need to manage the morale of your forces, which should be quite a challenge. We hope that despite the strategic elements of this recent installment, you will still be able to enjoy the breakneck action.

Asbel’s adventures return Tales of Graces f Remastered when will Bandai Namco release this JRPG on state-of-the-art platforms January 17. This recent version of the adventure includes graphical improvements, an autosave feature, the ability to turn off enemy encounters, and the addition of a dash instead of a slower action. You can also skip cutscenes in this version, and icons have been added to the UI to make the experience clearer. Most of the original DLC from the PS3 version is included in the package.
The plot centers around three kingdoms fighting for control of the world. Our heroes like Asbel, Richard and Sophie must work together to save the stunning world of Ephinea. Playing this game on PS3 as a teenager, I loved the arguably corny plot that focused on friendships between characters that grew out of childhood; I hope it ages well.
