Following the year starting out a bit light in January with the likes of Atelier Ryza 2 and The Yakuza Remastered Collection and February bringing in Persona 5 Scramble, Ys IX, and more, 2021 is starting to get very busy with this month. There are quite a few games to look forward to on all platforms with highly anticipated releases like Monster Hunter Rise, the long awaited localisation of Gnosia, Yakuza 6 hitting more platforms, and more.
