After years of slumber, Castlevania is back, with Dead Cells developer Evil Empire creating a new game under Konami's stewardship. Castlevania: Belmont's Curse borrows from the series' legacy, as well as its animated adaptation, to forge something familiar and still new, and ultimately arrive at an inheritor worthy of taking up the whip.

Thanks for watching Game Informer's Star Wars: Galactic Racer review! Galactic Racer is a Star Wars game, and that might be enough for some, but not for me. Fortunately, it’s an even better racing game, one filled to the brim with courses, speeder builds, and characters that keep me coming back to the track for one more race.

Of your crew in Exodus, Suliman may be the most shrouded in mystery. He's a representative of the Tenjin Dynasty and works for the Parliament of Ravens, Awakened animals who manipulate power from the shadows. He might be dangerous, but that could make him all the more appealing. We sat down with the team behind the upcoming sci-fi RPG Exodus to discuss Suliman's design, appeal, combat capabilities, and what you might expect from him in next year's time-bending adventure.

Many things change — the seasons, the times, possibly war — but love stays the same. Exodus, the new sci-fi RPG from a group of veteran game makers at Archetype Entertainment, certainly knows that love can bloom in the far reaches of space; given the BioWare legacy feeding into the Austin studio, romance options seemed like a surefire bet.

It may not hit a lot of notes, but like Logan himself, it nails the vitals where it counts. We hope our Marvel's Wolverine review helps you decide if the game is worth playing!
