Genre: Action-Adventure | platform: PC, PS5/PS4, Xbox One / Series X/S, Switch | developer
Having already been announced at E3 2019, it was almost three more years before Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga via Steam found its way onto home screens. In return, fans get a bulging content package and of course the humor they are used to from the series.
All nine episodes of the Star Saga are on board, so you can replay the events from Episode 1 to Episode 9 and thus all three trilogies. And if that’s not enough for you, you can look forward to the time after the release. Then seven DLCs will be released and many more fan favorites will be integrated into the game.
However, the new game is overshadowed by serious allegations against the developer TT Games. In addition to crunch, sexism incidents are said to have occurred in the studio:

Chrono Cross – Trailer shows off HD remaster
Genre: RPG | platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch | developer: Square Enix | Release-Termin: 7. April 2022
Do you remember Chrono Cross, the sequel to the JRPG Chrono Trigger? No? Well, that’s probably because these two cult classics were only released for Sony’s PlayStation. At least the second part will now appear as a remaster for the PC, too via Steam.
For this, all 3D models of the game have been refreshed in HD resolution and new graphics have been added. In terms of content, you can expect a story about two parallel worlds whose fates are linked. As a young boy named Serge, he embarks on a long and dangerous journey to unravel the mysteries of these worlds.
In the remaster, for the first time, you can also turn off enemy battles so that you can fully concentrate on the story. If you want to fight, you can optionally have the battles simplified.
