Does the PS5 version have an English/USA release yet, even if it's digital?

Yeah, it’s on the US store for $20.

For that Wonderboy game, with the girl as the star player, they could've called it Wondergirl: Asha in Monsterland.

Wonderboy 3 and 1 are still my favorites, but WB2 on SMS is still very good.

The Wonder Boy III remake from a few years ago was pretty fun. I mostly played with the SMS graphics for nostalgia, but the new artwork from Lizard Cube looks pretty nice.

Agreed, Wonderboy III Dragon's Trap remake was great. It was the original game, just with the ability to switch to modern graphics on PS4. The bird was always a favorite character, but the weakest.

Monsterboy is a great looking game, but a little tricky to get through. I'll try to finish it eventually. Finally made some progress. It's way more of a puzzle game than anything. Every section seems to require puzzle solving.

Here's a review of Wonderboy Collection PS4. I don't remember hearing about this. I have all the games already though but this is nice.

Hell is Us dungeon gameplay. I thought someone made a Hell is Us thread, but can't find it in advanced search at all.

I was initially interested, but now I'm on the fence. It has potential. Those enemies remind me too much of Death Stranding's blob enemies.




EDIT:
Ninja Gaiden Ragebound looks really good. Giving Shinobi Art of a run for its money in the same exact month of August 2025. This available now, and Shinobi demo now available too.
