Valiant tries to surprise with its crusade setting and multiplayer modes, but it has serious narrative problems and a gameplay approach that doesn't feel fresh in any way. Throw in a lot of crashes and lag, and the result is rather hard to recommend. [Not recommended]

If you do not know the Mount & Blade formula, with its final version after so long in Early Access and its release on consoles is the best time to discover it. [Recommended]

Bayonetta 3 is chaotic, spectacular and as funny and changeling as you can expect from Platinum Games. Is a must have. [Recommended]

It has some really successful moments both in design and in its approach to terror (there is a really good scene), but it also suffers from an almost total recycling of the original scenarios with some modifications.

Gotham Knights is a good action game with a great story, funny combat and interesting co-op options. Is not as brilliant as the Arkham series, but is easy to enjoy with Nightwing, Robin, Red Hood or Batgirl. [Recommended]

It contains all the irreverence, style of humor and unjustified violence of the parent series, but I think the construction of the plot and characters fails to engage like other games that have used its formula.

Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed is the more faithful recreation of what we see in the movies for the multiplayer terrain, but has a notorious lack of content that won't be able to ensure a long life span for it unless Illfonic starts to add maps, ghosts, and perhaps some other options.

A great port to Nintendo Switch of one of the best JRPG ever. If you haven't played Persona 5 Royal on PS4 or PS5, this is a perfect moment! [Recommended]

God of War Ragnarok isn’t just an amazing game and one of the best action adventures games in recent years, this game is also the legitimization of Sony’s way of making AAA games. [Recommended]

Is hard to recommend Scorn because it has an incredible art design and a great setting, but it also is a very obtuse adventure puzzle game. Maybe you can feel frustrated when you don't know how to resolve a puzzle, and its combat are very simple and boring. But if you connect with Scorn, it will be an incredible experience. [Recommended]

The problem is that, beyond the good ideas, the execution of almost all of its mechanics leaves much to be desired. The control is erratic, the combat system is unrefined and the level design doesn't always shine. And yet, it's a very interesting experiment that we wish more studios would follow.

PGA Tour 2K23 makes an astonishing return after last year's absence to offer a varied top quality simulation of one of the most pleasing, fulfilling and precise sports throughout it's magnificently recreated licensed golf courses and in the company of some current legendary players. [Recommended]

Hokko Life is very similar to Animal Crossing, but it is very far from its quality.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is an excellent RPG with engaging story, and deep gameplay mechanics and well-written characters. It works very well in this console port. [Recommended]

A nostalgic return to the best WOW's expansion. With a few changes to relive this classic, it's a placer returning to Rasganorte to fight against Lich King and his undead armies.

Isonzo may not be the most original or technically impressive multiplayer shooter, but it's so fun, so complex and yet so accessible that it's hard not to have a blast with it. The setting is brilliant as well. [Recommended]

Don't be fooled by Overwatch 2's title: it's nowhere near a sequel, but a relaunch instead. Blizzard clearly took this opportunity to update (not necessarily enhance) pretty much every aspect of the game and catch up with every other hot, current multiplayer game. Is that a bad thing? Hell naw. OW2 is wildly fun. [Recommended]

Nier Automata: The End of YoRHa Edition is a good port for Nintendo Switch that does what it needs to do: unfold the action of Nier Automata on the hybrid machine smoothly and consistently. [Recommended]

FIFA 23 it's huge and has a place for every football fan. However, not as great as the legendary editions of the football simulator.

The DioField Chronicle presents a successful battle system, with a lot of potential, but it doesn't always squeeze the most out of it. The story fails to captivate neither with its plot nor with its uninteresting characters.

A great survival game that makes you feel the terror fighting against bugs. [Recommended]

A good game with good ideas but with flaws within the franchise from the first game that are still here.

If you miss classic 3D platformer games, Tinykin is a must for you. [Recommended]

In spite of its age, this Tactical RPG is a really gorgeous and charming game. Great sound, story and combat system. [Recommended]

Serial Cleaners makes a mess that it can’t clean by trying to shove too many poorly implemented mechanics to a franchise whose first title succeeded because of its simplicity and naive yet humorous artistic style. [Not recommended]

Its premise of linking shooting to the rhythm of its heavy metal tunes is an idea that works even better than on paper, but it's also a fast-paced, precise and well-constructed shooter. [Recommended]

The best music tool to learn how to play the guitar or the bass, period. Hold your money, though, that song library has to grow and mature for the subscription model to make sense.

Another weird and interesting Tactical JRPG collection for Switch of two NIS classic games, being La Pucelle: Ragnarok the finest one.

Soulstice wants to brings back that hack'n slash magic that made GoW and DMC the classics that are today while adding a few tricks out of its sleeve which make it stumble in a few areas, but not enough to make it trip while presenting an interesting new addition to the genre.

Valkyrie Elysium will appeal to fans of the franchise and those who want to try a fun experience with an emphasis on combat. The former will find a new vision of the series that maintains the essence and does not clash with the previous ones; The latter, on the other hand, will be fascinated by a title full of beautiful environments and action-packed battles. [Recommended]

Return to Monkey Island is the game that we never expected to play and it's as special as you may imagine. It's hilarious, emotional and very clever. There's a lot of puzzles and islands to explore, and it still bears the heart of the old LucasArts games. [Recommended]

A very narrative platform game with interesting artistic values, but also very short and light in gameplay mechanics.

Steelrising may not be the perfect Soulslike, but it's a nice adventure that is worth your time.

Anno Mutationem has incredible visuals and a world to see, but I wish its gameplay was as good as the graphics.

The best and most complete Splatoon game ever made. You should try it if you have a Nintendo Switch console. [Recommended]

F1 Manager 2022 makes you feel in control of a real Formula 1 team and live each race with excitement, but the management aspects of the game are too shallow in its current state, and the race simulation is hurt by a terrible driver AI, horrible collisions and some more aspects that could have been better polished.

A rare experimental game that gives a huge importance to the player's choices, and that 's not bad at all.

Still being one of the most meritorious manga video games in history. But his ambition it's far from the 2013 project. If you didn't play the original one it's a great opportunity to feel the JoJo sensation.

Despite its ups and downs, the whole mystery surrounding Marissa Marcel is fascinating and deserves to be discovered in order to understand how video games, even supported by cinematic techniques, remain the best plastic material to mold unique ideas, stories and sensations. [Recommended]

Maybe one of the greatest retro compilations in history. Digital Eclipse marks the way to future hommages for other greatest sagas and publishers. [Recommended]

A great adventure puzzle game with an interesting sci-fi setting and funny gameplay mechanics. A must have in VR games. [Recommended]

Madden NFL 23 is a step-up when it comes to football simulation and gameplay, but it still carries most of the franchise woes from the last decade. It is undoubtedly a better game than last year's entry, but it still has a long way to go on all of its aspects, from the lack of novelty in the game modes to the frequent bugs and glitches. EA Sports has taken steps in the right direction, but they haven't managed to make a real statement on an entry that was supposed to honor the late John Madden.

The Last of Us Part I may not be the most necessary remake in history, which seeks a new audience for the new generation and also future viewers of the HBO series; but also aims to remain for posterity, giving a greater aesthetic cohesion between Part I and Part II. [Recommended]

A good try to make a Shinchan game, but it is not for everyone.

Kirby's Dream Buffet is a funny game, especially against other players, but it could have used a little more variety to stand out from the competition.

One of the most engaging and enjoyable JRPGs that have been released during this season. A really must-have game for fans of the genre. [Recommended]

The craziness of trying to mix Tony Hawk with a horde mode from a random TPS works thanks to the talent of the fathers of OlliOlli. One of the hits of this summer. [Recommended]

Thymesia is a good Soulslike, fun and enjoyable.

Way of the Hunter is a hunting simulator with excellent ballistic mechanics but badly implemented fauna AI and hunting mechanics in which the only prey players will catch are tediousness and frustration.

Combining hack 'n slash action and cult management in a great and inspired way, this is definitely one of the best indies of the year. [Recommended]

I had a great time with Hard West 2, especially with its supernatural western setting and XCOM-like combat, but the RPG elements overshadow the end result. A third part with clearer ideas could be terrific.

Although the pace can be a bit uneven, especially at the beginning, the challenge is present when the gameplay possibilities open up and is enlivened by unique humor accompanied by detailed and detailed animations. There is no doubt that this classic formula remains as solid as the first day. [Recommended]

Not the Digimon game you expected, but it is still a good choice if you like the novel graphic adventures. [Recommended]

Cartel Tycoon has some very interesting ideas that are unfortunately overshadowed by an inconsequential story and a certain lack of depth in its management strategy. It's addictive and fun, but it has the potential to be so much more.

Definitely, one of the biggest JRPG ever made. If you love the genre, you should play it.

Endling is a survival game not suitable for the most sensitive, but it hides a much-needed message. [Recommended]

Madison is not without its faults: it abuses jumpscares too much, it's not very good in terms of gameplay, nor is it surprising in terms of story. However, it achieves what it sets out to do: terror. One of the scariest games of recent times.

It's definitely a unique RPG game, specially recommended for players looking for a different experience. [Recommended]

Another outstanding compilation of some of the best arcade games ever created by Capcom. [Recommended]

Its story engages from beginning to end and keeps the player interested in these characters whose lives fall into a spiral of chaos and self-destruction. [Recommended]

Capcom delivers a mighty expansion with Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, both in terms of content and actual experience. Combat has been heavily refined and the new art, animations and monsters are all beautiful minus the occasional lack of endgame loop material here and there. One thing is clear: even though it might never be as big as Iceborne, it's absurdly fun. [Recommended]

Good remakes of two funny and classic 2,5D platform adventure games from Namco.

Tennis and video game lovers deserve more. His playable benefits are weighed down by all its visual, sound and content defects. [No recommended]

F1 22 does what it has to do: it renews the new championship rules and makes the cars more realistic. Even so, it misses a more exciting mode than F1 Life and a more competitive multiplayer. [Recommended]

Outriders: Worldslayer brings a solid new direction in what the endgame should look like for People Can Fly's latest IP. It features a much more refined gameplay loop along with dozens of new loot to chase. Hardcore players should be happy, except for the awkward limitations linked to the city-mode of Tarya Gratar.

Redout 2 is a good futuristic arcade racing game for players looking for something similar to Wipeout. [Recommended]

Great anniversary for Sonic, but needs more fuel to make the ultimate Sonic Collection.

A brilliant action game with tons of content and great Fire Emblem moments. [Recommended]

Starship Troopers: Terran Command succeeds with its commitment to over-the-top action, but it falls far short in terms of content and its humour does not match the satire from which it draws its inspiration.

Stray is a game with a unique personality. Captivating and endearing. [Recommended]

A brilliant beat'em up with a funny co-op action and amazing pixel art. [Recommended]

Diablo Immortal is a more than decent take on the saga for mobile gaming but unfortunately suffers from the same sins F2Ps are known for; paywalls and an excessive focus on microtransactions gate lock its end game contents forcing players to spend some cash in order to experience everything. [Recommended]

Cinematic adventure made in Supermassive, with all his greatness and failures. Maybe the best experience since Until Dawn.

Mario Strikers: Battle League Football has great gameplay values, but regarding the contents, it is really disappointing.

Hardspace Shipbreaker is probably the best (and only) outer space salvaging simulator. A game that hides a compelling -albeit simple- story with a powerful message towards harsh working conditions with an addictive gameplay loop that really puts you in the shoes of one of the most dangerous professions both in real life and in gaming: scraper. [Recommended]

Sniper Elite 5 is a further refinement of a formula to which there is less and less to add and modify.

Swansong does not always perform at the same level. Its development is a roller coaster of moments lacking in rhythm and some well achieved, characterized mainly by a slow start and some tutorials that do not do their job wisely.

Even though Salt and Sanctuary is better, this Salt and Sanctuary is not bad. Play it with a friend to improve the joy.

Evil Dead The Game is a funny multiplayer action game with the flavor of the classic movies by Sam Raimi.

An enjoyable but maybe too simplified 2,5D Action RPG, a prequel to the upcoming Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes that will be launched next year.

Dolmen is not the best SoulsLike ever, but if you love the genre and the sci-fi you may enjoy it.

Warhammer 40.000: Chaos Gate - Daemonhunters delves into the genre of turn-based war strategy in a remarkable way, but the best part is that it allows you to discover its immense universe from the inside. It's not Dawn of War, but it's close. [Recommended].

A Kurosawa tribute in the form of a video game. It’s like a classic Prince of Persia located in Japan, gambling all in his sthetics and his black and white aura.

King Arthur combines the best of XCOM's combat, RPG elements from Diablo, and the morality system of BioWare's games. [Recommended]

Undoubtedly, this sequel hid more surprises than we expected. [Recommended]

Nintendo Switch Sports is a good entry in the series, but it also needed more dedication.

After the third installment, I had my doubts about Syberia: The World Before, but Microids manages to return to the essence of the franchise with a beautiful adventure game. [Recommended]

Chrono Cross is a great example of the golden age of JRPG on the first PlayStation. The biggest problem comes from a remaster that doesn't do all the homework.

13 Sentinels is great. Its has one of the most impressive and surprising storylines in video games, with great strategic battles and a beautiful art style. [Recommended]

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is an amazing video game. You can travel to the most famous places in the galaxy and play with all the Star Wars characters. An adventure full of nostalgia and fun, I love the LEGO humour. [Recommended].

Quest for Infamy is a classic adventure game that pays direct homage to Sierra's Quest for Glory saga and, after its release on PC, is now coming to consoles. Even with some flaws in the puzzles, illustrations and mechanics, Infamous Quests managed to make us wonder how beautiful an alternative future would have been if adventure games had continued to expand their possibilities.

Raphael Colantonio's trademark is clear: it is a systemic game where freedom and interaction between elements is the order of the day. But I think Weird West is not without its problems.

A Memoir Blue is interactive fiction at its purest: touching story, great soundtrack and beautiful art design, but too short and simple in terms of gameplay. While not the best in the genre, it's a great debut for Cloisters. [Recommended].

Agent Intercept is an enjoyable game, but not so good for recommending it to everyone.

Death Stranding: Director's Cut is a solid PC port with great performance and chock full of new content. Is it worth returning to Hideo Kojima's most personal game on PC? It depends on how willing you are to replay this huge, unique, open world adventure. [Recommended]

A solid beat 'em up game which has tons of accessibility options and good production values. [Recommended]

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a video game worthy of belonging to the Borderlands family. It introduces changes and improvements while keeping the essence of the franchise intact. It's impossible not to fall in love with Tina and her fantasy world.[Recommended]

It's definitely one of the best Kirby games ever made. The game design is clever and it has a lot of variety both for veterans and less experienced players.[Recommended]
