The first game from Square Enix’s Tokyo RPG Factory, I Am Setsuna, will be hitting PS4 and Steam this Summer. Hopefully a PS Vita port will be announced as well for the English version.

The game has been out since February for Japan and it is inspired by older RPGs such as Chrono Trigger. I Am Setsuna actually uses the same active time battle system as found in early Final Fantasy games and Chrono Trigger so it’s bound to be a great game.

When Project Setsuna was announced at last year, Tokyo RPG Factory stated they wanted to create games that are heavely influenced by classic RPGs. Check out the trailer below.

A Basketball Mode is Being Teased For Rocket League.

It looks like Psyonix has been working on a basketball mode judging from a recent tweet.

Instead of a soccer goal, there looks to be a gigantic basketball goal. The defender would have to jump up to block the ball, which means goal tending is legal? This mode already looks like it will be a lot of fun and will require some skill for sure.

No date has been announced yet, but it’s safe to assume it will hit sometime this month, just in time for the NCAA madness of March.
