Hello, long time no announcements.

I hope you stayed safe and had lots of time to play JRPGs in the past year working from home.

There's been quite a few big releases in the meantime, and quite a few delays for hotly anticipated titles as well, so let's look at the more prominent changes in Steam catalogue.

Edge of Eternity is prepping for their big release out of Early Access in June
https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/269190/

There's been quite a list of smaller and/or indie titles as well, but Steam limitations for announcement are already kicking in, limiting the number of embeds. Feel free to browse the curator page for recent reviews.

Yesterday we had Atelier Lulua release, and for the first month it comes bundled with two cosmetic DLCs. Deluxe version comes with the season pass, whatever that means.

There's also an Atelier sale going on on that occasion.

A bit earlier this month we had Death end re;quest, which seems to be a decent game from Idea Factory.

From the pile of small indie titles I'd like to highlight Marenian Tavern Story, which looks neat.

Next week we have Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls
https://steamproxy.net/steamstore/app/948640/Wizardry_Labyrinth_of_Lost_Souls/

And the week after that, we have Octopath Travaler (but the price on that kinda stings).
