An absolute recommendation for genre fans. With a great setting and an emotional soundtrack, Jusant climbs to the top.

Not a loveless licensing, but a real RoboCop game that doesn’t skimp on bullets or laughs.

An exciting sci-fi adventure with great dialogue and fantastic visuals, which Lem’s original novel captures excellently.

A successful city-building simulation that builds on the strengths of its predecessor, but is dragged down by terrible performance.

In some respects, it’s certainly a nice treat, but the bottom line is that it’s not an unreserved recommendation because there are too many half-baked game elements.

Rather than offering more of the same with slight improvements, Alan Wake 2 is a thoroughly fresh sequel with a compelling story and chilling moments.

More of the same, only better: Ghostrunner 2 is even more polished than its predecessor, even faster, even cooler and above all: even more fun.

An innovative addition to the game series whose new mechanics offer exciting potential for the future, but gets in its own way and therefore unfortunately falls short of its potential.

Wowie Zowie! 2D Mario is back and is finally running at full speed again in his new adventure thanks to fresh ideas and the creative miracle flower.

Great action-adventure in which swinging, fighting and story are convincing and only the somewhat risk-averse open world has to take a back seat.

Miles better than its predecessor, but still not outstanding: Lords of the Fallen is a rock-solid Soulslike in which a few major strengths collide with many small weaknesses.

Apart from reading, walking around, pushing together clues that are already next to each other and sometimes completing a quick-time event that you can't lose (!), nothing happens in Detective Pikachu Returns. Part 2 now provides new partners, for example Fukano now supports you with his sniffing nose. But that doesn't change the untapped potential and doesn't take the game to a new level. Even the story is so boring and predictable that I don't want to repeat it here. The game doesn't expect anything from you, but you have to continue it again by pressing a button. In this respect, the film of the same name gives you a much better experience - and significantly cheaper. All that remains is the Pokémon skin and charm: instead of crooks, you chase Pokémon like Mewtwo. Instead of interviewing witnesses, you take the statements of Pokémon. Yes, super cute, but so is every other Pokémon game. No case is particularly memorable. Or to put it another way: If Sherlock Holmes ever runs out of narcotics, he can also play this for five minutes.

A good Assassin's Creed for those who prefer stealth, parkour and a small but still formulaic open world.

Payday 3 is unfinished and currently lacks far too much content. This is why the technology is on strike.

EA Sports FC 24 fits seamlessly into the quality of FIFA games. Visually it plays at a high level, but new game content is more noticeable in details than in the general gaming experience.

A simple mix of dating sim and dungeon crawler that, despite some obvious weaknesses, scores with a large portion of heart and humor.

More than a bonus: The Separate Ways DLC is a real conclusion, the icing on the cake, a Best Of CD that invites you to a final Resi4 tour and is generous with deleted content.

An extensive, high-quality DLC that inspires with story and a dense atmosphere and even improves the main game. An all-round successful comeback for Cyberpunk.

Entertaining and visually appealing brawler that fits well into the extensive franchise. Definitely worth a look for both professionals and newbies, more characters would make the game even more attractive.

Fun, summery open-world racer in one of the most beautiful locations in the world that basically doesn’t do much wrong, but lacks a bit of its own identity.

Inspired by the top class and enriched with its own, albeit too few, ideas: If you leave the From Software portfolio aside, Lies of P is one of the best things to come in the soulslike genre.

You can overlook Sea of Stars, but you shouldn't. Now or later you're going to need a modern slice of childhood like this.

Nice farming game that lacks variety over time.

The soundtrack and visuals are beyond reproach, and the mostly fun skate gameplay sees Bomb Rush Cyberfunk grappling with repetition and really annoying cops.

A space adventure that is graphically breathtaking in places, the story of which surprises, but some Bethesda strengths are unusually difficult to get going. Sci-fi fans should still take a look.

Dave the Diver is a great adventure with many elements from other genres, so it never gets boring. Only the control with mouse and keyboard takes some getting used to.

Strengthening boss battles, endless customization options and excellent gameplay make Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon a successful overall package for mech fans.

A fantastic role-playing game that shines with its story, its companions, its game world and decisions. Only bugs deny an even higher rating.
