Considering Honkai Star Rail loves powercreeping characters, it’s been a long time since we last got a preservation unit. 365 days, to be precise, since the glorious Aventurine joined the cast and started keeping our teams incredibly safe. There are, as of April 2025, 69 playable Honkai Star Rail characters in the game, with three scheduled for upcoming banners.
Love and Deepspace earns over $780m in one year thanks to its hunky husbandos

Think what you want about otome games, but the runaway success of Love and Deepspace’s profit over the last year proves just how popular the genre is, and that there’s a clear demand for male characters in games. If you’re not 100% sure what an otome game is, they’re games focused on romantic storylines, usually featuring a female main character and plenty of male options to pick from. The content of the games does vary, but usually it’s safe for work with a little kiss thrown in for good measure.

The Star Named EOS, a delightful photography-based puzzler, is about to glide onto mobile through Crunchyroll’s Game Vault – and I got to try it out. So I’m here to compare the performance and controls to those of the game on Switch and let you know if it’s worth playing. For a deeper look at the game, you can see our full The Star Named EOS review on Nintendo Switch here, but I’ll give a quick summary of it. The Star Named EOS is a point-and-click game laden with puzzles, where you play as Dei.

In a recent interview with Variety, Microsoft’s Gaming Chief Phil Spencer talks about the Nintendo Switch 2, along with the Minecraft Movie, the future of Xbox, and more. We’re very intrigued by what he has to say, and hopeful about Xbox-owned games that may come to the handheld.

The first Animal Crossing turns 24 today, and we want it on Nintendo Switch

1 week ago | pockettactics.com | Holly Alice

Happy birthday to my favorite game series ever – Animal Crossing. On this day in 2001, 24 years ago, Nintendo released Dobutsu no Mori (Animal Forest) on the N64 in Japan, and Tom Nook’s generous housing service took shape. Though the N64 title didn’t make it out of Japan, it did mark the beginning of a huge franchise, with the GameCube version releasing not too much later in December of 2001.
Turns out in Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, you can fix your weapons in an unexpected way

1 week ago | pockettactics.com | Holly Alice

While I waited my turn to try out the upgraded Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on the Switch 2, I noticed that the new Zelda Notes feature was on the nearby screens. This showed off new maps, interactive features, and sharing options for some in-game items, but it appears there may be a fix to a problem that puts off some players, too. Something I didn’t notice as I eagerly awaited my foray into Hyrule was the addition of the daily bonus option.
