- New 3D platformer Hirogami is coming for Astro Bot's crown - 26 September 2024
Selfishly, I want more triple-A-backed 3D platformers. We're not left wanting in the indie scene - A Hat in Time, New Super Lucky's Tale, and the upcoming Rollin' Rascal are all truly brilliant - but we don't get 'mainstream' entries in the genre that much anymore. Of course, there's Astro Bot, Crash Bandicoot 4, and Ratchet and Clank, but I want even more new ideas. In walks Hirogami , a stunning new platformer with some a neat premise, and we (hopefully) don't need to wait long to play it. Read the rest of the story...
