Matt of RGN writes, "Unepic is a melding pot of platforming, RPG, and dungeon crawling games. It has a distinctive classic NES/SNES style to it but with a new age feel mixed in. Unepic stars Daniel, the “unepic” hero from the modern world fighting through Harnakon, the large castle that Daniel has been transported into while using the washroom at a friend’s house during a D&D session. The game is available for Windows as well as Wii U. The title can be played with both the GamePad and Pro Controller, with the GamePad either functioning as a second screen for inventory, map, etc., or off-screen play."
Eastasiasoft today announced that they will release the Ghost 1.0 + Unepic Collection, two popular metroidvania titles, physically on one cart for Nintendo Switch, as well as a physical and digital Asian release of Ghost 1.0 for PS4 in Q3 2019.
GameSpew: If you find yourself craving to play a Metroidvania game on Switch there are plenty for you to choose from. Here are the ones which we think are the best.
No mention of Dead Cells? Got that game recently and it's freaking awesome!
I would absolutely include Yoku's Island Adventure on this list. It's different, but the same basic concept of get new item or ability, progress to areas previously unavailable
Dark Souls continues to influence game mechanics, especially metroidvania platformers. Souls-like metroidvanias are becoming a norm on the steam store.
This game is getting good reviews, the more I hear about it, the more I want to pick it up. But I must wait. These games almost always go on sale. I will wait until then because I ain't made outta money you know? The only game on the WiiU eshop that has never had a sale is "Cave". But this looks interesting. Has anyone played it?
