London, UK - 11th June 2022 - This year, CRITICAL REFLEX took advantage of an action-packed weekend of summer games shows to drop a series of indie-lightful new trailers.
Announcements include a release window for roguelike deck builder ORX, iconic voice talent reveal for dungeon-crawling dating sim Freaked Fleapit, dreamy new gameplay for the pixel-perfect souls-like game Being and Becoming, and a demo for occult western adventure Rose and Locket.
Better play your cards right this summer! CRITICAL REFLEX has announced that ORX is set to release in August 2022, with an exclusive new gameplay trailer at the IGN Expo. The trailer shows exclusive new gameplay footage of the second faction available to players in ORX - a people who rely on warriors and trade routes to defend themselves, rather than fortresses.
