Yu-Gi-Oh fans have been underserved when it comes to replaying some of the best games from the franchise’s heyday, but that’s all changing with the upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh: Early Days Collection. What’s most exciting about the upcoming compilation is that it includes Game Boy games that didn’t release outside of Japan the first time around. Yu-Gi-Oh: Early Days Collection doesn’t have a release date, and Konami hasn’t revealed the full list of games, but from what we know so far, fans will want to keep this on their radar. Physical edition preorders for Nintendo Switch are now live at Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, GameStop, and Target for $50.

Earlier this week, the Kingdom Hearts Union χ Dark Road application was unexpectedly delisted from the Apple and Google Play stores.The Kingdom Hearts Union χ Dark Road mobile game contained pivotal lore, key story details, and an in-depth plot for the basis of much of the Kingdom Hearts series. Unchained X–previously known as Union X–and Dark Road did receive a cutscene compilation people can watch to experience the story, but playing the game seems to now be a bygone pasttime for Kingdom Hearts fans.This delisting poses great problems since one of the main characters introduced in the mobile game, Strelitzia, also appears in the first Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer and is teased to play a major role in the new installment alongside Sora.Delisting games abruptly without an announcement is nothing new. Just this past April, Capcom delisted three of its games, and according to the Video Game History Foundation, 87% of video games released in the United States before 2010 are “critically endangered,” making these games lost and/or susceptible to disappearing.Fans hope that Kingdom Hearts Union χ Dark Road will receive a remake or make its way outside of the mobile space.

After years of refinement, crafting and survival games have developed a pretty effective formula: You’re dropped into a place where you gather sticks, you use the sticks to make an axe, the axe lets you cut down trees, and before long, you’re making a whole shelter and advancing up a tech tree and making more and more complex gear, mastering the wilderness around you.Winter Burrow doesn’t stray from that formula–at least, not in its first 20 minutes. But while it feels very similar to other survival games, most notably Don’t Starve, it sets itself apart through its tone and approach. Winter Burrow applies a cozy aesthetic to its survival, combining the feeling of danger with a sense that what you’re building isn’t a shelter to keep you alive, but a home.I played a short demo of Winter Burrow at Xbox’s Gamescom event in Los Angeles, which gave me a quick look at the game from its start. A short cutscene started the demo, setting up the story that follows an anthropomorphic mouse setting off for a new life. The mouse remembers his old home, the burrow, with fondness, but he and his family moved away to find work in the city when he was a child, leaving it in the care of his aunt. Hi…
