Andrew from Xbox Enthusiast writes: "Anima: Gate of Memories is not a perfect experience, but it’s the type of game that the Xbox One really needs. The action RPG genre is seriously lacking so it’s great to see that this style of game is being represented on the console. Despite a few missteps, the overall experience was pleasant and although frustrating at times, the game never overstayed its welcome. There are multiple endings, a new game plus mode and more reasons to go back and play the game. Anima: Gate of Memories is the type of game that I can see myself picking up from time to time in order to visit that world once again."

Badland Publishing is happy to announce that "Distrust" and "Anima: Gate of Memories" is now available in physical format for PS4.
Anthony checks out the sequel to this unique action title.
How critical is it to have played the original Gate of Memories game in order to follow this story? Is this title even worth picking up without having played the other?
Anthony here. Not critical to play the original. This is a stand alone title. It is however a game that benefits from knowing the first title, but it is in no way a sequel and not reliant on it. I think there's a fairly inexpensive download pack of both games that I would recommend but if you just want to dip your toes into the world of Anima then honestly just pick one of the two titles and go at it. If you enjoy it then play the other.
Great review Andrew. This game was even on my radar but now I think I'll give it a second look.
Hm, maybe now I'll think about it.
