Transforming mech roguelite Metal Mind is coming to Switch and PC on March 7

If roguelites, transforming robots, and tearing corrupt corporations down from within are all on your to-do list, Metal Mind might just be up your alley.

Any of the ideas here might not be novel on their own, but the trailer certainly has my interest piqued. I’ll admit, a lot of that has to do with the visuals. Yes, it’s another pixel art roguelite, but so far…

Fortnite is finally coming back to iOS this year

Epic games Fortnite is set to come back to iOS in Europe sometime in 2024. This will mark the first time a natively running version of Fortnite will be available on iOS since Apple removed the game from the App Store in 2020.

It’s a tough market for newcomers.…
