Square Enix have announced Paranormasight: The Mermaid’s Curse, a summery sequel to horror mystery visual novel Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo. The original game earned itself a double thumbs-up from former RPS reviews editor Rachel Watts, shortly before she vanished while gathering blood-stained stones one moonlit night.

Mewgenics, the cat breeding roguelike battler from Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel, finally saunters out of its litter box with a cheeky smirk next week. It’s been a long time coming, but the developers have opted to make players wait for a full release, rather than going the early access route plenty of games opt for nowadays – the likes of Hades 2 and Wreckfest 2 spring to mind. As a result, McMillen and Glaiel see the way they’ve gone as no longer being the norm, and have shed more light on their reasons for not picking early access.
