Tetracast - Episode 222: Tokyo Game Show Break Down

Welcome to the latest edition of the Tetracast, RPG Site's regular, seemingly weekly podcast! 

To open things up this week, James has imported The Legend of Heroes: Kuro no Kiseki, the most recent entry in the long-lived Trails series of JRPGs. Since it likely won't see an English localization for several years, James and Josh have decided to jump into the Japanese version and discuss their spoiler-free impressions of the game. Adam meanwhile takes a look at Brazilian indie Unsighted, while Chao discusses his disappointment with Mary Skelter Finale.

News this week is full of Tokyo Game Show (and related) announcements for Japanese games, including new details for Pokemon Legends: Arceus, a PC release date for Monster Hunter Rise, an official announcement for Atelier Sophie 2, a release date for Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, and a whole lot more.

This edition of the Tetracast features Bryan Vitale (@ZeoMassicot), Josh Torres (@HD_Kirin), James Galizio (@Theswweet), Adam Vitale (@King_Seda), George Foster (@gepugg), and Chao Min Wu. You can find links to the full episode of the podcast below along with our RSS feed, and also subscribe to us on iTunes or Google Podcasts, and follow on Spotify!
