The Plucky Squire (NS, PS5) - I'm not sure what System though.

The OG of the VG Monthly is back! Big Pete delete the other thread please!

Plucky Squire is free if you have PS Plus Extra or Premium so go with that if you can!

My games for September are:

Astro Bot(Game just looks fantastic, they are keeping the love letter to Playstation via mascot costumes, I genuinely hope PS5 owners show up for this game given this is one of the last Japanese PS studio based games. Put up or shut up time! Loving what I see with this one, hope they have enough challenge to this game for big platformer fans like myself!)

Persona 3 Reload: The Answer DLC(This is the true test of how good Atlus is when it comes to reviving Persona 3 from a Quality of Life perspective. They honestly hit a home run IMO with how manageable they made Tartarus but now incomes The Answer which is a pure dungeon crawler who even big fans of Persona 3 felt it was needless grinding to go through the game. I can't wait to see how they tackle this one, Persona 3 Reload right now is my GOTY so more of this and more time with the SEES crew after 100 hours of them is fine by me. Day 1 Game Pass means Day 1 play for me.)

Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom(Probably Nintendo's biggest game this year and arguably their biggest game towards the supposed tailend of the Switch's lifecycle. Having to play as the damsel in distress in her own game might backfire like with how Princess Peach: Showtime ended up being to most earlier this year but this game actually looks neat. I am always a sucker for 2D Zelda games and this game really looks to build upon Tears of the Kingdom's "Get creative with building blocks to do your bidding" dynamic.)

The Plucky Squire(Can't believe this got a date so soon, thought this was going to make it 2025 for sure! Game has a 2D Zelda meets 3D platformer mesh written all over it and James Turner, the art designer behind the Gen V Pokemon games is an illustrator for this so we are getting a pretty cool looking game. Even if it's a minigame fest I think there's lots to like with this one. Even better it's a launch PS Plus title, game looks very creative and out of the ordinary.

Ace Attorney Collection is def something I will look into down the road as these are the only games I don't own(I own everything on the 3DS) but might wait for a sale for those. Juggling a bit of visual novels at the moment so in no rush. Dead Rising and Lollipop Chainsaw remasters being so close to each other is pretty wacky too.

Lollipop Chainsaw is SEPT 12th for US and SEPT 26th for the rest of the world. Not sure why but I ain't complaining, G/B is eating good. 

(Really good month of gaming here)

Put me down for Echoes of Wisdom. Ordinarily, I'd be put off with a sequel borrowing so much off the previous title, especially when TOTK was a direct sequel. However with it essentially being LTTP with BOWT/TOTK sensibilities it's wise that they don't stray too far from the formula. It'll likely become the first actual 2024 game I purchase (since TTYD was a remake of a 20-year old game). It's just a matter of how long it'll take to beat with Metaphor right around the corner and likely filling out the rest of 2024.

And yeah, if I owned a PS5 I'd be incredibly excited for Astro Bots. That's one of those games, I'd play through now, have a blast with it and then return to it around Christmas just to get into the holiday spirit.

Happy to see the Persona team cover the Answer as well. With Metaphor on the horizon, I'm still in no rush to dive in, but I'm pretty sure in a year's time I'll likely dive into it and/or SMT V Vengeance.

Never got a chance to play Epic Mickey. I'll be sure to check it out this time.

SHOW UP PLAYSTATION FANS. On the week Concord died a swift death, Astro Bot is back with a vengeance. Can't wait till Friday.
