About 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim
Uncover the truth and delve into a 2D sidescrolling adventure featuring gorgeous art and environments. Then, battle the kaiju in fast-paced, top-down combat. Customize the Sentinels with an arsenal of mechsuit weaponry, and fight to defend humanity!
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim was released only on PlayStation 4 in North America in 2020, and needless to say, it was a smash hit. Part science fiction visual novel, half real-time strategy game, the game features huge robots fighting against a kaiju invasion. The story follows 13 distinct people, several of whom seem to be unrelated and live in separate historical periods. However, as the narrative twists and turns, you see how it all fits together, and it’s fairly amazing.
It might sometimes go into typical anime melodrama and nonsense, but it doesn’t take away from it being a very unique and unforgettable gaming experience.
