To the fans of Souls-lite combat, Flintlock is a refreshing blend of axe gameplay and gun gameplay. The Old Gods have come back to cause havoc in the world, and you will take the lead with gunpowder and magic in the last battle of humanity. The swiftness and flow of its traversal, facilitated by your mystical fox-friend Enki, are helpful.

A follow-up of the Soulslike tradition, Enotria: The Last Song is an Italian-themed, folklore-inspired, “Summer-Soulslike” game. Contrasting the dim and gloomy recent paths of most games in the genre, Enotria is filled with sun-filled scenery. Alternate your playstyle with the power of Ardore to transform the world around you and switch between various masks to change your gameplay in real-time.

The arcade icon comes to the current consoles with some new tricks. It is the home port version, which is based on the 1997 home port and, most notably, has modern gyro aiming. Although you may not own the plastic G-Con light gun, the motion controls are a nostalgic experience of reloading by ducking and firing through international terrorists.
