It's Monday, which means it's time for the highly waited and coveted RPGFan Coming This Week. I know you have been waiting for like, a week or so. So, let's get into it.

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana - PC (April 16th)

Well at last, you can enjoy the game on PC today. Players who buy the game within the next week can get the DLC for it for free. Check our reviews of the PS4 version and the Vita version.

Check it out on PS4 later this week. We'll see if Kratos' new life as a parent can stave off his major competitor releasing the same day: Nintendo's cardboard-powered Labo.
