Ubisoft Has a New JRPG-Inspired Game in the Works


Posted on January 13, 2014 by Jason Nason

Ubisoft announced a new downloadable title was in the works back in September, and the game will be a JRPG inspired title. Child of Light centres around Aurora who, after falling ill, finds her soul transported from her home to the magical kingdom of Lemuria where the Black Queen had stolen the Sun, the Moon and the Stars.

Here is some of the details from the announcement:

Now that her soul is in Lemuria, Aurora must find the missing light sources and defeat the Black Queen to restore the kingdom. Guiding her through the darkness is a floating ball of light named Igniculus, who can be controlled by a second player. Aurora and Igniculus have entirely different playstyles. There will be places Igniculus can travel but Aurora cannot, in addition to their skills during battle. Aurora is the recognizable RPG standard – attacking and defending against enemies using magic and her massive sword – while Igniculus uses his light source to blind enemies and slow them down, directly heal comrades and collect orbs to restore the party member’s health and mana.

LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins | Review


Posted on January 13, 2014 by Jason Nason

LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins is all of the fun you would expect from a Nintendo title, filled with charm, humour and lots to do.

The game takes its inspiration not only from the LEGO City line of building toys but also from the type of open concept gameplay more mature fans have become accustomed to in the Grand Theft Auto series. In this game you will find many of the same familiar themes and gameplay mechanics from GTA titles without any of the violence or language that that series has become famous for.

In LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins you step into the shoes of Chase McCain, who is ready to prove he’s more than just a rookie police officer. This prequel to LEGO City Undercover on the Wii U reveals the origin story of Chase McCain, one of the city’s most celebrated crime fighters. Chase has just joined the police force and is sent undercover in order to prove his worth as a LEGO City police officer, making use of disguises to gain special abilities, and engage in hand-to-hand combat with underground criminal gangs. He quickly becomes a one-man show set to bring down the criminal element running amok in LEGO City.
