Released as the fifth installment in the series, The King of Fighters ‘98 is often hailed by critics as the best game from the 1990s. It differs from previous King of Fighters games by including nearly every character who appeared in earlier titles and focusing solely on exciting, non-story driven matchups. Players build teams of three fighters to compete in the King of Fighters tournament, ultimately facing off against Rugal Bernstein. The game was a major success and remains a fan favorite, even though the King of Fighters series has continued to release excellent games into the 2020s.

While more seasons are likely coming, the long-term plan isn’t fully decided. HBO chief Casey Bloys told The Hollywood Reporter that shows like The Pitt could return every year, but that’s not feasible for series with lots of special effects, using Harry Potter as a prime example.

The developer acknowledged that the combat experience in the game hasn’t quite lived up to what players were hoping for, according to a recent blog post.

Here is an overview of the game, via Hamster:

When the full game is released, you’ll be able to carry over your progress from the demo. Plus, players who complete the demo will get a special hamster costume for their Mii characters to use in the full game.

This isn’t about the 2014 game, but its new sequel developed by Hexworks, expected to launch on April 7th (with an announcement planned for March 31st). The game centers around the Lamp Bearer, a character who can use a special lamp to travel between the world of Axiom and the land of the dead, called Umbral, as Axiom faces the threat of Adyr’s rule.

As expected, the leak comes from the consistently accurate Dealabs. They report that the new Lords of the Fallen – the sequel, not the original game – will be the featured title in April’s game selection.

Steam players have a short window of opportunity to get Narvas, a sci-fi platformer shooter from Stranga Games, Tommah Games, and Grab The Games, which was originally released in 2022. The indie game currently has a 60% approval rating on Steam, which isn’t fantastic. Interestingly, it actually had a better rating before it became free. It’s common for Steam games to receive lower review scores when offered for free for a limited time, and Narvas is following that trend. While it seems strange that a free gift would get worse reviews, there are several reasons why this happens.
