Cosplay Wednesday – Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux's Alex
The world of Atlus' Shin Megami Tensei series will be remastered for a new generation with the release of Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD Remaster. In honor of this JRPG, Gamers Heroes takes a look at a cosplay of Lucifer's daughter, Alex.
The demonic heritage of Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux's Alex is on full display with elvishelizabeth's cosplay of the character. Her over-the-ear headphones, red coat, and gun are all captured in what amounts to her most intricate sewing project to date. In all, the project took around 150 hours to make.
This cosplay was so popular that it won the Atlus-o-Weenie 2017 contest from Atlus USA – no small feat!
Credit goes to Gun Head Design for the bodysuit design, Zentai Zentai for the bodysuit itself, and Eliseo Velasquez for the photo.
You can find elvishelizabeth on DeviantArt here.

Biomutant Gets Explanation Trailer
Ahead of its release next week, THQ Nordic and Experiment 101 have released a rundown of their new title Biomutant with an explanation trailer for the game.
Art and Creative Director Stefan Ljungqvist sits down with the title in this trailer, explaining what the title is in a nutshell. This open world (8×8 kilometers) post-apocalyptic kung-fu fable pulls influences from Ratchet & Clank, Devil May Cry, and the Batman Arkham series of games.
Players will be able to morph their own breed with the character creator system, and players will also be able to craft bits onto their clothes. An arsenal of weapons will be at the player's disposal in this action-RPG, altered by the material that one chooses.
There are six different tribes in the game, with three possessing a light aura and three possessing a dark aura. Players will have to choose an ally from the offset, but players can change their allegiance as things progress. Everything is tied to the Tree of Life, and what one chooses is tied to the ending of the game.

Museums are typically stuffy affairs, but Dinobyte Studios adds some prehistoric excitement into the mix with their new title Bite at the Museum. There's no denying the allure of dinosaurs and mayhem, but does this T-rex in a china shop manage to make an impression?
Bite at the Museum Review
Things start to go amiss when a sentient time machine named Tim gets fed up with his surroundings. Stuck in a museum with a bunch of fogeys, he sets out to get his revenge by transporting a tiny T-rex named Tony into its hallowed halls.
This is where the player comes in. As this green reptile, players are given free reign over their surroundings, with only one goal in mind: smash anything and everything that surrounds you. Thankfully, there's no shortage of things to break; vases, macro memes, and plenty of other valuable trinkets can all be destroyed almost instantaneously. The world is your oyster, and almost anything you see can be absolutely decimated.
To do Tim's dirty work, players can utilize a pretty standard control scheme. Movement uses the typical WASD movement style, with biting and eating mapped to the left and right mouse buttons respectively. Players will also be able to sprint and spin to knock that precious vase off of a pedestal with style, but what you see with the control scheme is what you get. It's not overly complex, but then again, it doesn't have to be.
As players destroy things and rack up combo multipliers, they'll be able to fill their Destructometer along the way. Once it fills to the brim, players will be able to make it to the next exhibit. It's best to work quickly though, as daybreak will cause the game to end. No need to worry though; the meter fills quickly without it feeling too much like a grind. The average playthrough runs about 10 minutes as well, which proves to be just the right amount of time for something with as simple a presence as this. Just be warned that there are no achievements to speak of or anything else to encourage repeat visits to its exhibits.
It's just a shame that Bite at the Museum is a bug-riddled affair. Tony would constantly teleport from place to place, clipping through walls and navigating tight passageways with the title's poor camera. For most of our initial playthrough, a table was stuck on this poor T-rex for a good 75% of the time. There were no crashes, but this is one title that could have used a good spitshine of polish.
Sometimes you need a AAA epic to get lost in, and sometimes you just need some good ol' fashioned dumb fun. Bite at the Museum most definitely fills in the shoes of the latter, doing exactly what it says on the tin and nothing more.
