We had a veritable cornucopia of hands-on previews land this past week, kicking things off with a look at Obsidian’s upcoming first-person RPG Avowed. We also spent four hours with the promising Metaphor: ReFantazio, a new RPG from the folks behind the Persona series, put Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics through its paces, and find ourselves very impressed with Monster Hunter Wilds. Dive into these and more of our takes from the week.
