It’s Tuesday. and the longer I do this, the harder it is to come up with unique flavor text. Here’s the news.

• Yakuza 6 Demo Complications
• Night Driver Mobile Game
• Chrono Trigger Controversy

Yakuza 6 Demo Bug

The downloadable demo for Yakuza 6: Song of Life released worldwide today. With it, users could play the first chapter of the game and have your progress be saved for the full game. At first, people were put off by its weirdly large file size. As it turns out, this was because the demo contains the entire game. The U.S. players discovered a glitch that allowed them to break past the demo wall, and play the rest of the game. Sega has since removed the demo from the market and is patching it immediately.

Night Driver: Pocket Edition

Atari has risen from their tomb of rest, and with it, Night Driver. The popular 1987 arcade racing game is being revitalized with a mobile game. Now with modern graphics, customizable cars, and all that sweet, sweet vaporwave aesthetic. The game has soft-launched in Canada, with no word on a worldwide release.

Chrono Triggered

The classic RPG about time travel was unexpectedly published on Steam today. Fans of the game were ecstatic with an official PC port, only to quickly turn to anger. the PC version of the game was identical to the mobile port, which wasn’t good. Transcribing that again to PC only made it worse. Now the fandom is (quite vocally) expressing their discontent with Square Enix’s continued reputation for horrible game ports.

Thanks for reading, everyone. Today was a fairly interesting news day. My sympathies to the people bothered by the Chrono Trigger thing. Check back tomorrow for more interesting video game news. Otherwise, have a great night!
