Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet.

Vita survives Switch onslaught in Japanese charts

It comes as no surprise that the launch of the Nintendo Switch dominates the Japanese Media Create chart this week, shifting 330K units. Even so, the Vita managed to soldier on selling just below 9,900 units on the week.

Be interesting to see just how quick the Switch die off is, compared to other launches, and if it will slowly take over from Vita sales as the games start to roll out for Nintendo's new pup.

On the software front, Super Robot Wars V sold another 12,000 units, to stick in the chart at No. 11 and should pass 100K next week. In shock news there's no Minecraft on the Vita to be seen, shunted out by several Switch arrivals after many years of continued strong service.

Otome title Wand of Fortune II is out this week for the Vita in Japan.
