Tokyo Xtreme Racer (PS5) – February 25th

Talk about a blast from the past, and a much-demanded one at that! **Tokyo Xtreme Racer** makes its 'long-awaited return' to our screens. This isn't just a simple port; we're getting a true racing game set in 'a sealed-off future Tokyo, where you compete for the fastest speed in your customized cars on the highways that weave through the city, aiming to reach the top.' For fans of high-stakes, high-speed street racing, this is the definitive comeback we've been craving.

Towerborne (PS5) – February 26th

Another big one finally dropping is **Towerborne**. This 'exciting side-scrolling Action RPG Brawler' casts you as an Ace, 'an immortal warrior reborn to defend the Belfry against the darkness beyond its walls.' The mission? 'Journey across a crumbling world, uncover the mystery of the fallen City of Numbers, and push back the corruption threatening humanity’s survival.' The brawler elements and rich lore certainly have our attention.

Diverse Drops & Cult Classics

You'll rely on Psyncer Kaname Date to help her out. Expect the usual delightful weirdness.

Bread & Fred (PS5) – February 24th

Co-op fiends, listen up! **Bread & Fred** is a 'challenging co-op platformer where two players must cooperate to jump and climb to the top of a snowy mountain.' Playing as Bread and Fred, expect 'an exasperating and sometimes maddening climb that requires precision with every jump.' This sounds like a true test of friendship and platforming prowess, with a hefty dose of potential frustration (the good kind!).

Pogui (PS5, PS4) – February 25th

Sometimes, all a little pug wants is a nap. In **Pogui**, you'll guide this 'lovable pug through dreamlike worlds and help him get to bed,' navigating a 'side-scrolling precision platformer presented in retro pixel art style.' With colorful but hazardous levels, it sounds like a charming, if demanding, indie gem.

Ever wanted to build your own rig without the real-world cost? **PC Building Simulator 2** lets you 'Work for Uncle Tim in ‘Story Mode’ where you can grow your empire as you learn to repair, build and customize PCs.'

With 'many aircrafts' and 'a lot of other additional contents... like hidden bonus, growing up of bonus item and bonus by scratch of enemy’s attacks,' the 'speedy game tempo of this game got strong support by many players.' This is pure, unadulterated bullet-hell bliss.

Shadow Corridor 2 (PS5) – February 26th

If you like your horror with a procedural twist, **Shadow Corridor 2** delivers! 'Lost forever in the pitch black! But that's what makes it fun!' the developers tease. The 'vast corridors covered in darkness change with each play,' forcing you to 'run or hide from the frightening Apparitions.' Utilise 'unique items and Karuta cards with special powers' in your 'desperate search for an escape.' This sounds like a terrifyingly replayable experience.

Warplanes WW2 Dogfight (PS5) – February 27th

Strap into the cockpit for some aerial combat with **Warplanes WW2 Dogfight**. 'In each of the campaigns for Great Britain, the USSR, and Germany, you will assume the role of a pilot and squadron leader.' Prepare to 'Take part in large-scale air battles, carry out dangerous missions, and lead your squadron to victory across the skies of World War II.'
