With this week being the 4th of July in the US, it appears that we don't have too many game releases to look forward to, but we managed to dig out a few new releases regardless. This week's AA title comes from Japan, with all that that entails. The rest of this week's releases include some strategy, some shooting, some tagging, some climbing, some darkness and some fear, so make of that what you want. To our US readers, enjoy your holiday this coming week.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie / This week's AA title / Friday 7 July
What destinies await these three fateful figures? Use the Crossroads system to switch between Rean Schwarzer, Lloyd Bannings, and the masked figure "C", and determine the fates of key characters and locations within Zemuria. Dive into refined tactical combat with new features such as United Front, and discover new allies and challenges within the halls of the True Reverie Corridor!





Power Vacuum / Monday 3 July
Power Vacuum is a fast-paced, competitive strategy game. It aims for minimalism, stripping away all the unnecessary detail to let you play as fast as you can. Power Vacuum features a "play against your past self" system that automatically records the games you (and your friends!) play.



Team Six - Armored Troops / Tuesday 4 July
A squad-based strategic action game where you command six types of special units to complete missions. It offers a variety of gameplay options, including large-scale battles, infiltration, sniping, and armored warfare.



Ultimate Tag / Wednesday 5 July
Compete with friends in the fast-paced, 2D platformer! Chase each other through various unique maps, using quick reflexes and maneuverability to avoid being "it". Collect powers along the way to help dash, freeze and teleport your way to the top!



Gylt / Thursday 6 July
Shape your fears… Fear the shapes. Embark on a journey where you face your worst fears and are confronted with the emotional impact of your actions in this narrative adventure game with puzzles, stealth and action.



New Heights: Realistic Climbing and Bouldering / Thursday 6 July
Experience free solo climbing and bouldering like never before. Go above and beyond on real cliffs and structures. Improve your skills, travel the world and compete against your friends from the safety of your computer.



Presences: Dark Awakening / Friday 7 July
Explore a dark reality, discover a forgotten ritual, interact with the world around you, solve ancient puzzles, platform treacherous underground chambers, and feel the terror. Survive the night in this interactive haunted house narrative adventure from a first-person perspective.

Team 6 gives me slight Cannon Fodder vibes - WISHLISTED! Though I'm cautious after my disappointment with Tiny Troopers

Ultimate Tag gives me slight VVVVVV vibes.

Gylt screenshot 3 gives me strong "this meme" vibes:

Omg Cannon Fodder was SO GOOD when it came out. The screen with the hill between levels showing all your dead & the queue of alive soldiers was great, it actually made me think about soldier deaths more!
