What Stands Out This Month?

Armored Core PS1 Trilogy—Nostalgia Reloaded

Fans of Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon will now know the roots of the mech action series from FromSoftware. Pretty nicely done, these PS1 classics have mech customization for high-stakes combat and some growth from the earlier titles.

Sports and Arcade Highlights

Other Notable Games in Sports and Arcade:

• UFC 5 will have them commentate on the world of MMA, from special physics to breathless animated details of the fighter; what a treat this one is.

• Anime-wrapped Captain Tsubasa—Rise of New Champions fast-paced soccer action with its signature moves.

• Arcade Paradise and its VR counterpart provide an engaging mix of management simulation and retro gaming.
