Set two months after the events of Ocarina, Link finds himself transported to an alternate version of Hyrule called Termina and must prevent a very angry moon from crashing into the Earth over the course of three constantly repeating days. Majora&#039;s Mask&#039;s unique structure and bizarre tone have earned it legions of passionate defenders and detractors, and one long-time Zelda fan is going to experience it for the first time to see where he lands on that spectrum.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Join Marcus Stewart and Kyle Hilliard &lt;strong&gt;today and each Friday on Twitch at 2:00 p.m. CT &lt;/strong&gt;as they gradually work their way through the entire game until Termina is saved.

The game is not Steam Deck verified primarily because certain features are not supported on Valve&#039;s handheld, or other comparable mobile PC game platforms. However, the offline content (the single-player campaign and the expansion) has been specifically adjusted to play well on Steam Deck. &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/NixxesSoftware/status/1790396884873355624&quot;&gt;You can read port studio Nixxes Software explanation here&lt;/a&gt;. And spending a little time with the game shows that the single-player campaign does, in fact, play well on Steam Deck. It&#039;s not without its shortcomings – a high-end PC or a PlayStation 5 are still the best ways to play the game – but Steam Deck appears to be a great way to play the game if that&#039;s your only option or you want a portable version.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You can check out some gameplay with commentary from myself and Wesley LeBlanc below.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/GF8M0YoySoc&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

Join Alex Van Aken – who visited Supergiant for &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/hades2&quot;&gt;the cover story&lt;/a&gt; and has played Hades II extensively – and myself for a look at the game&#039;s second area and boss fight. Spoilers ahead if you want to experience the locations and enemies for yourself, but otherwise, enjoy this &lt;em&gt;New Gameplay Today&lt;/em&gt; episode!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This second area in Hades II is called Oceanus, an underwater realm Melinoë uses to bypass the armies of Chronos, the game&#039;s antagonist and Titan of Time. Oceanus is generally more difficult to navigate than Erebus, the first area, due to explosive hazards, more powerful ranged enemies, and darting schools of swordfish. The level culminates in a musical boss fight against a rock band of sirens led by Scylla, a well-known sea monster from Greek myth. Scylla sings while her keyboardist and drummer back her up. Despite sharing one health bar, the individual monsters can be stunned and knocked out of the fight, muting the appropriate instruments in the active music track.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;See Oceanus And The Scylla Boss Fight In Action:&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/20XK9ovmxYk&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

The third-person adventure stars the titular character, a nun who hears voices from the devil himself. His demonic influence manifests into world-distorting gameplay sequences as Indika explores the rural wilds of early 20th-century Russia. Tack on bizarre pixel art flourishes and other overt video game elements, and we can&#039;t tell if Indika is taking itself seriously or not. But we do know that we want to keep playing it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Join editors Marcus Stewart and Kyle Hilliard as they explore an early section of this attention-grabbing adventure available now on PC (and PS5 and Xbox SeriesX/S later this month).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/yQk2AGx3URI&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass released in 2007 for DS and is controlled entirely by touchscreen.

The excellent &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/review/prince-of-persia-the-lost-crown/a-royal-resurgence&quot;&gt;Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown&lt;/a&gt; released in January, and today we learn about The Rogue Prince of Persia, which will be entering early access in May.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The game comes from developer Evil Empire, the co-developer of Dead Cells, and the lineage shows. The game is a 2D platformer roguelike that has a lot in common with Dead Cells, but after spending some hands-on time with the game, it also has its own identity.

Join editors Kyle Hilliard and Marcus Stewart as they spend over an hour discussing Suicide Squad’s narrative highs and lows, including how the game addresses Batman: Arkham Knight’s true ending, developer Rocksteady’s portrayal of its villainous cast, and why we were ultimately bummed out about the ending.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Be sure to also check out editor-in-chief Matt Miller&#039;s review of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/review/suicide-squad-kill-the-justice-league/noise-and-confusion&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/t1Y4AABAk5c&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

We learn about his childhood fascination with becoming a manga artist, the transition from college life to working at Sega, and his early career developing games like Devi and Pii, Golden Axe 3, and Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Iizuka remembers the excitement and challenge during the transition from the Sega Genesis (known as the Sega Mega Drive in Japan) to the Sega Saturn, which allowed the team progress from 2D pixel art to 3D polygonal modeling.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Notably, the Sonic the Hedgehog lead reflects on the early Dreamcast days, moving to the United States to better implement western culture into Sonic Adventure 2, and finally, describes his emotions after hearing Sega was exiting the hardware business and ending production of the Dreamcast.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Sonic the Hedgehog Lead Reflects on SEGA&#039;s Road to Dreamcast:&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/zKgfzcghU0M&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Please subscribe to &lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@gameinformer&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt; if you enjoy this video.

Clans, however, is the first time in a long time the video games have leaned into the universe&#039;s fiction in a big way. The single-player (or cooperative) campaign features a full narrative complete with cutscenes and characters, which is quite different from the recent entries which have primarily been focused on competitive online action.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Join Charles Harte and me as we take a look at gameplay for Clans, which is coming this year to consoles and PC.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/_8uioiGsAaU&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

It&#039;s a bit like &lt;em&gt;Interstellar&lt;/em&gt;, but if things had gone how they were supposed to. Ahead of the game&#039;s release on April 16 (on Game Pass as well as other platforms), Charles Harte and I decided to take a look at an early portion of the game, discuss the developers&#039; intentions for the narrative and gameplay, and detail how the game was made.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For a whole lot more on Harold Halibut, you can &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/preview/2024/02/07/the-stop-motion-adventure-11-years-in-the-making&quot;&gt;read this feature where I interviewed game director Ole Tillmann and art director Onat Hekimoglu&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/07kBMqa37mU&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

Its epoynomous video game debut is a open world action RPG featuring an original story, and after fans got to try a recent public demo, we traveled to Bandai Namco to check out never-before-seen sections of the game. Join Marcus Stewart and Kyle Hilliard as they show off a new dungeon and boss fight from Sand Land, along with peeks at Forest Land and the game&#039;s deep vehicle customization.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you&#039;d like to know more about what you watched, be sure to read our in-depth hands-on preview about this content and more right &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/preview/2024/03/27/a-hands-on-tour-and-exclusive-town-building-details&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/kC_RuPZQh2A&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.

You could be forgiven for not being familiar with the character. Though he has made appearances in North America, he&#039;s never reached the popularity of his comic contemporaries like The Peanuts Gang or Mickey Mouse. I only became aware of the character after visiting developer Remedy in Finland in 2015 for our &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2015/11/03/december-cover-revealed-quantum-break.aspx&quot;&gt;Quantum Break cover story&lt;/a&gt;. Members of Remedy&#039;s team educated me on the character and I brought back Moomin merchandise as souvenirs for my family.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I had not thought much about the character since then, but recently, Moomin and his friends have been slowly invading my life prompting me to wonder if Moomin is on the verge of a United States popularity breakthrough. Developer Hyper Games and publisher Raw Fury must have thought the same thing, because it is releasing a Moomin video game on March 7.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Check out the video below to learn more about Moomin and see the cozy game in action.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; frameBorder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;autoplay&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;360&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/-GOm7xY1tyg&quot; width=&quot;640&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; &lt;p&gt;Head over to&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Game Informer&#039;s&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/gameinformer&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;YouTube channel&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;for more previews, reviews, and discussions of new and upcoming games.
