Limited edition print also unveiled Journeyis a beautiful game. And what better way to honor that beauty than with two separately artful tributes that will soon beup for sale— the soundtrack on two vinyl LPs and a “very limited edition” screen print by artist Mark Englert. The vinyl album, priced at $35, will be available forpre-orderstarting Thursday and will be released at some point in August. There will only be 350 prints available at $60, so as with the soundtrack, you’ll probably want topre-orderthis on Thursday as well....

Futaba Explains It All Atlus has released a new trailer for its upcoming musou-likePersona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers, which launches on PS4 and Nintendo Switch in Japan later this month. The video tasks The Phantom Thieves’ totes-adorbs navigator, Futaba Sakura, with laying outPersona 5 Scramble‘s storyline and gameplay within three minutes. Unfortunately my Japanese is a little rusty, so I can neither confirm nor deny that she achieves this, but we do get to see lots of stylish action culled directly from the hack ‘n’ slash release....

Beetlenaut dev has a full-on adventure coming Necrophone Games, developer behind the neat Android titleBeetlenaut, is heading to PC with a comedy adventure game known asJazzpunk. The game’s been silently in development for a long time — and I know, because I was doing voiceover tests for it ages ago. That was a hint that I’m involved with the game in a very tiny way. Here’s a teaser trailer for it....

The debate over how long video games should be has raged since the 90sat least. I’ve certainly dipped my toes into this conversation before,including here on Destructoid. But for the recent release ofSuper Mario RPG, those asking “how long is it” may need a slightly more nuanced answer than usual. For those just tuning in, the remake of the Super Nintendo classicSuper Mario RPGis here. For my part,I absolutely loved reviewing the game....

Ready to fail miserably? Because this is easily one of the hardest Monday Mind Teasers I’ve put together in months. You know how it works though — with the help of each other, attempt to figure out all of the disguised video game covers. They all share a common theme that, once solved, can help you figure out the harder ones. This week’s theme is actually not that hard, but I purposely tried to lead you in the wrong direction, and the puzzles themselves are far from easy....

Just in time for school to start! Monster Hunter: Worldwill be hitting consoles in a few short weeks, but PC players are gonna have to strap in for a wait. Capcom confirmed via Twitter that the goofy hunting simulator would be ready for an Autumn 2018 release window. That doesn’t even give us a month, but that at least means it will be launching before December… #MHWorldis currently being optimized for PC and is planned for an Autumn 2018 release!...

Nintendoes what Nintendon’t usually do We’re all well aware of Nintendo’s bent towards making games for all ages. Nearly every game developed by Nintendo is squeaky-clean, garnering the company a reputation for only having family-friendly titles on their consoles. However, it looks like someone out there is tired of that stigma – namely, Nintendo. In a report yesterday byThe Wall Street Journal, (note: there’s a paywall) several game developers said that Nintendo is actively encouraging them to put mature games out for the Switch....

You wouldn’t have guessed it, but Spidermonk Entertainment’s upcoming Xbox LIVE Arcade title,Roogoo, was one of our favorite games of the show. And I’m not just saying that using the royal “we,” meaning that I’m talking on behalf of the rest of Team Destructoid. This time, I actually mean it. Everyone from our sports editor Samit to my wife agrees — our time with Spidermonk’s puzzler was shockingly fun, and terrifyingly addictive....

The game requires Windows 7 and up, and the PC must be running a 64-bit version of its OS....

All that glitters isn’t gold Something’s going on at PlatinumGames. During a keynote address at theBitSummitindie gaming show, producer Atsushi Inaba teased that the fan-favorite studio might be working on a new project. There’s relatively little information in the producer’s statement, which mostly revolved around the fact that PlatinumGames is kicking around a yet-“formless” IP. Though coy, the news is certainly welcome. PlatinumGames have had an interesting year. Following the success ofNieR: Automataand the unfortunatecancellationofScalebound, the developer released a PC port ofBayonettaon Steam in early April....
