Wanted: Dead Is 2023's Jankiest Game, And I Love It
22.2.2023
Remember Devil’s Third? Former Dead or Alive weirdo Tomonobu Itagaki’s 2015 Wii U exclusive combined elements of Gears of War and Ninja Gaiden to create something pretty janky but unlike anything else I’d played at the time.

Season: A Letter To The Future - The Kotaku Review
