Exile’s End: An Action-Packed Japanese Homage

Exile’s End, developed by XSEED Games, is a thrilling action-adventure game that pays homage to early 90’s games like Flashback and Another World. The game has a distinct Japanese flair, with its core gameplay developed by Magnetic Realms, and its art, cutscenes, and music provided by legendary figures from Japan’s 8 and 16-bit eras.

The game draws inspiration from science-fiction films and anime of the 80’s, and its gameplay is reminiscent of classic Amiga and Commodore 64 action-adventures. The game’s music, composed by Keiji Yamagishi (known for Ninja Gaiden NES, Tecmo Bowl, and Captain Tsubasa), perfectly complements the game’s fast-paced action. The game’s art, created by staff from Secret of Mana, First Kiss Story, Mother 3, and more, is visually stunning and immersive. The NES-style cutscenes by OPUS (Half-Minute Hero) add a nostalgic touch to the game.

Overall, Exile’s End is a must-play for fans of classic action-adventure games. Its Japanese influence, combined with its homage to classic games, makes it a unique and thrilling experience.
