<p>If you&#8217;re craving a new RPG to play this week, maybe you should check out the new game from Piranha Bytes.

<p><em>ELEX </em>boasts one of the largest weapon selections in a role-playing game, which is natural since it offers both the weaponry of a science fiction game and the traditional weapons you&#8217;d find in a fantasy RPG. As for the game&#8217;s title, it refers to the resource that players will be fighting over that give people magical powers. Personally, I can never get enough science fiction/fantasy crossovers, and while this isn&#8217;t a AAA title or anything, those also tend to offer some of the more interesting character moments and narrative beats. I&#8217;m personally pretty excited to see what the story has to offer and whether the extensive amount of weaponry available offers enough variety to take down enemies without it getting repetitive.</p>
<p><em>ELEX </em>is available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC today. Let us know in the comments below whether you&#8217;ll be picking this up!</p>
