Have you ever wanted to experience the life of a samurai? Now you can, thanks to Trek to Yomi finally releasing on the Nintendo Switch. Check out Jason Capp's Switch review for more.
PS Blog: "Today we’re happy to reveal the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games for June. The Monthly Games lineup of NBA 2K23, Jurassic World Evolution 2 and Trek to Yomi will be available to PlayStation Plus members on Tuesday, June 6 until Monday, July 3."
This month is pretty lacking. I'll try Trek to Yomi and start a park in Jurassic World Evolution 2 . But NBA 2k23 is not for me unfortunately.
All the rumors and leaks get you excited what the games can be then they give you this pile of rubbish.. like what is this especially for June
I just finished looking at the video from PlayStation Access, I totally forgot about Trek To Yomi. I believe it was in a Xbox show when it was revealed and I thought it looked great. Glad to know I can finally play it, and if it’s as good as I hope I will purchase it.
The rest I’ll add just because.
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "It’s a shame that, for whatever reason, screenshots have been disabled on the Nintendo Switch, because I would love to show firsthand that there is little difference between the Xbox and handheld versions. Still, it overall didn’t affect my play, and the end result is still the same: a battlefield soaked in blood, a boy fulfills his debt, and the player is left torn between relief and unease. Was this truly the only path to redemption? Or was the loss worth the price of revenge?"
Jason says, "This game does, indeed, scratch my classic Japanese samurai era itch. But just barely. From its unpredictable movement plane swaps to its lack of combat finesse to its exploration that starts to drag, it simply wears itself out instead of ever hitting a stride. It’s serviceable and it works, and that’s about as far as it goes for 5 hours. Fortunately, it gives off the right samurai era vibe through great choices in sights, sounds, and filters in a black and white world, but unfortunately runs with inexplicable stuttering. But it does serve to remind you that samurai lived by a strict code, one that sometimes did not always work out because being too rigid keeps you from adapting to reality."
Great game but gets cheaty in the end ..(spoilers)......they have gun guys that do heaps of damage, in the last act they just hide them behind other guys so you cant get to them making it a frantic race to get there first or or fight and try and position yourself to get to them first then you are surrounded...this can be fine for a fight but when they work it into say two with other fights in-between saves it gets a bit crap...and its not skill its just doing it to be hard for the sake of being cheaty in the end.
I really liked this game until in the later levels they just put gun guys behind everyone else and shot the crap out of you, felt cheap and nasty, because it is.
