Metal Saga

Metal Saga

Crea-Tech, Success, Atlus

A follow-up to the Metal Max games, Metal Saga is set in the same post-apocalyptic world as its predecessors - a world populated by bounty hunters, rangers, bandits, and mutant monsters. You take the role of a bounty hunter who has to travel the world, looking for "wanted" people. Accompanied by a soldier, a mechanic, and a cyborg dog, the hero must survive a journey west that will ultimately take him to remote places and lead him to battles against evil. Metal Saga has a less linear story line that one would normally expect from a Japanese RPG - a story line that develops according to the missions you decide to take, which in their turn lead to new events and finally to different endings. The combat system features traditional party management and turn-based battles, with the addition of Metal Max's trademark tank combat. When you acquire tanks for your characters, you can use them in battles. Tanks get damaged and broken, but you will be able to customize them by finding parts scattered across the world and assembling them to build new models. Based on the model of tank many different kinds of weapons, cannons, and accessories can be equipped to it, making for hundreds of different options. Tanks can even be given a custom paint job that is saved to the memory card.

Daydreamer: Awakened Edition

Daydreamer: Awakened Edition

Roland Studios, Atlus

Awaken into a nightmare filled with malicious aliens, grotesque mutants, emotionless robots, and giant bugs in Daydreamer: Awakened Edition, coming soon for PlayStation®4. The side-scrolling platformer/shoot-em-up game was originally released on the PC, but the new Awakened Edition includes major gameplay updates and numerous refinements, for those brave enough to walk the perilous path of the daydreamer. Daydreamer: Awakened Edition is the story of the last human who rouses from an eternal sleep to an unfamiliar Earth. Aliens took over the planet thousands of years ago, and the nameless protagonist was kept in a stasis chamber as a twisted relic to memorialize their victory. However, the mysterious Immortal Gate Keeper liberates her and sets her on a dangerous expedition to the Earth’s core. Be warned though—the aliens will do whatever it takes to get their trophy back, and the Earth is filled with frightening creatures that hunger for human flesh. The game also features special "pets" formed from the imagination of the Dreamer who provide support to give the player a tactical edge amongst all the chaos. The game is boss-focused and plays like a classic arcade shoot ‘em up with off-road checkpoints.

Shin Megami Tensei

Shin Megami Tensei

Atlus

The story follows a nameless protagonist who lives in near-future Tokyo. When a portal to the realm of demons is opened, United States officials order a nuclear attack on Tokyo. Transported with two other supporting characters thirty years into the future, the protagonist finds the Earth ruined by a demon invasion, which is now the stage for an escalating conflict between the Order of Messiah and the Ring of Gaea, conflicting cults who wish to bring about kingdoms for their respective patron deities (YHVH and Lucifer). The story is influenced by moral decisions the protagonist makes, aligning him either with the Order, the Ring of Gaea, or setting him up as an independent agent. The gameplay uses first-person navigation of dungeons and turn-based battles against demons. The player can recruit demons as allies by talking to them rather than fighting them, and two to three demons can be fused to create new demons.

Guwange

Guwange

CAVE Interactive, Atlus

Guwange is 2D vertically scrolling shoot'em up played with a character moving on foot. The game takes place during the Muromachi period in Japan with strong fantasy elements. The shikigami demons possess the people and give them great opportunities, but they die after exactly one year. Three heroes want to get rid of the curse. They must kill the evil deity Guwange, but first they must find five elemental scrolls. The game belongs to the "bullet hell" range of shooters, with lots of bullets on the screen where precise movement and pattern detection is required. The player can choose from three characters, each with a different attack style. They can be moved around the screen and need to shoot enemies and bosses. They have access to basic weapons and special shots, but as the characters move on foot, they cannot shoot enemies on rooftops or freely move around the level when there are structures or obstacles in the way. The player can summon shikigami, increasing firepower. The Xbox 360 version has two additional game modes: Arrange Blue Mode (a more challenging version) and Arrange Xbox 360 mode (small changes in gameplay, for example shikigami is controlled separately with the right analog stick).
