PlayStation 5/4, Xbox X/S, PC users have two new video games to play this weekend. These two are "Metaphor: ReFantazio" and "Silent Hill 2".

Metaphor: ReFantazio

Atlus/Sega’s absorbing Persona series has grown over the years from a cult hit to a genuine blockbuster, but it’s been seven years since the last chapter. Meanwhile, several of its creators have branched off to form their own Studio Zero, and they’re about to launch their debut title, "Metaphor: ReFantazio", as per a AP report.

Instead of Persona’s Tokyo-set teen drama, Metaphor presents a power struggle in a pseudo-medieval kingdom. The combat, however, evokes Persona’s zippy blend of turn-based and real-time action, and when you aren’t fighting you’ll need to spend time building relationships with the locals, as per the report.

If you’ve been craving a chance to explore a new world for dozens of hours, this one opens up Friday, October 11, on PlayStation 5/4, Xbox X/S and PC, the report says.

Silent Hill 2

The survival horror masterpiece "Silent Hill 2" features some of the most ungainly combat ever included in a video game. You play as James Sunderland, a grieving widower who has received a letter that purports to have been written by his wife. You must make your way through a mysterious fog-enshrouded town while fending off the monsters that inhabit it, and you are barely up to the task.

Your primary means of self-defense are a length of steel pipe and a flimsy wooden plank, both of which are awkward to wield. Winding up to swing takes an unreasonably long time. If you connect, you're left defenseless while taking a moment to recover.

When you eventually find a gun, you have little ammunition, and aiming is so delicate that you almost always miss. There's not even much incentive to fight: Vanquished foes don't drop items or power-ups, and defeating them doesn't earn you experience points. Faced with an enemy in the 2001 game, it's nearly always better just to run away.

In its remake of "Silent Hill 2" that was released for the PlayStation 5 and PC this week, Polish developer Bloober Team has pointedly addressed this clumsiness.
