Last year when Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny was released in the West as a Nintendo Switch exclusive, many wondered just what happened to the PlayStation 4 version that remained in Japan. Well, that version is now being upgraded and coming to a number of new platforms as Nippon Ichi Software and NIS America have announced that Disgaea 6 Complete will be coming to the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC in Japan on June 16th and sometime this summer for the West.
When released, Disgaea 6 Complete will include all of the previous DLC including characters and cosmetic costumes that were released for the original game and the announcement trailer as well as a number of PlayStation 5 screenshots can be found below. As mentioned in our review of the Switch version of the game the number of changes made to the formula may streamline things but also put off longtime fans of the series though whether or not these changes will all hold true in this re-release will remain to be seen.
After being announced last year, Telltale Games has released some of the first details for The Wolf Among Us 2: A Telltale Series. The first detail is unfortunately that fans of the series will need to wait until 2023 to play it but at least all episodes will be completed at the time the first episode is released.
When released the game will arrive on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC at the same time and to go along with this announcement a trailer was also revealed and can be found below. This new season takes place six months after the events in season one. As Bigby, players take on a case that spans the normal-mundie world, torn between who players will be willing to help.

Destroy the Hearts of Fearsome Foes, Engage in Online Multiplayer, and Uncover the Secret of Altarstone Kingdom on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Epic Game Store
SEATTLE – 11 Feb. 2022 –Salt and Sacrifice, the next installment in the million-plus selling soulslike platformer Salt and Sanctuary series from Ska Studios and Devoured Studios, begins hunting mages on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Windows PC via Epic Game Store on Tuesday, 10 May 2022.
A terrible fate awaits the decaying Altarstone Kingdom. Corrupted Mages, terrifying beings capable of controlling elements in chaotic displays, wreak havoc across the realm. To fight the evil beings, the forsaken and condemned find a new purpose, conscripted to fight as Marked Inquisitors as punishment for past crimes. Only by slaying the Mages can Marked Inquisitors begin to purify the kingdom and find some semblance of redemption.
Join the hunt as one of eight character classes before setting out from Pardoner’s Vale and wandering the western frontier. Progress across the dying land, battling with an array of weapons and arcane abilities to support a variety of playstyles. Engage in pitched showdowns against the Mages, employing skill, guile, and evasive tactics to topple the wicked creatures. Destroy their hearts and claim otherworldly flesh and bones to craft new armor sets and weapons before marching onward to find the remaining Mages.
Face untold trials alone or join factions to engage in online multiplayer. Align with PvE-focused outfits and summon player-controlled Inquisitors capable of aiding in battle. Embrace the dark side with PvP-minded sects like the Shroud Alliance, invading other Inquisitor’s worlds and hunting them mercilessly for ill-gotten gains. Input password protection to call upon trusted brothers and sisters-at-arms or let fate decide what allies—or enemies—enter the world.
Salt and Sacrifice’s campaign features challenging combat and RPG systems in a dark fantasy world with a haunting soundtrack by composer Maclaine Diemer (Guild Wars 2). Build the Marked Inquitiror from a condemned criminal into a master Mage hunter capable of facing the secrets of Altarstone. Salt and Sacrifice’s harsh environments reward Inquisitors who face the unknown with aplomb, supporting both single-player and multiplayer progression.
