This Week In Imports: Arc Of Alchemist Brews On PS4

The first week of February sees Compile Heart’s Arc of Alchemist as the only major new release. The game is a tactical action RPG focusing on party formations, and takes place in a giant desert caused by mankind which has been overrun by rogue automatons.

That said, there are some smaller releases and ports as well. BlazBlue: Central Fiction Special Edition brings the latest mainline Blazblue game to Nintendo Switch, while Touhou Genso Maroku W and Captain StarONE also come digitally on the eShop.
