Halo Infinite's compendium is a remarkable one, a game that excels in all areas and that properly shows the hard work that 343 Industries has put in the game. The campaign is cool and the multiplayer is lots of fun, so all in all John 117's first appearance in the next-gen is a fantastic one.

And the thing is that Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition stands out for practically the same reasons as its sister installments: fun gameplay, a good story, charismatic characters (although in this work they are not as much as in other titles in the saga) and, above all, a world that is overwhelming to see and explore due to how vast it is. Huge, yes. And also very dangerous, as I mentioned in the analysis. But it is a joy to get lost and discover scenarios, each one more impressive than the last, with scenarios that are the envy of many current open worlds.

Death Stranding lands on PC in the best possible way. The game is a well optimized port that many players will be able to enjoy due to its accessibility requirements. Even if you already enjoyed the game on the PS4, this is a good opportunity to revisit it.

A remarkable debut in all of its different aspects that will certainly be appreciated by those who are yet to test the franchise. It is a perfect conversion to PC that has undoubtedly earned SEGA some praise, although the lack of Spanish language is still an issue.

If you liked the game on PS5 and you have a decent PC, 100% recommended. It is without a doubt the best version of the game. It shows the effort and affection of Nixxes for this to be possible. I find it amazing that it works on the Steam Deck. On the downside, it needs some patches to make the experience flawless.

The remake of Silent Hill 2 honors the great audiovisual work that Konami released in 2001, maintaining a high level and improving many of its most distinctive features. Silent Hill 2 was an essential title more than 20 years ago, and it remains so today with this magnificent remake.

Nioh 3 represents a bold evolution for Team Ninja's punishing samurai saga. Where the first two entries excelled in tight, mission-based structure and stance mastery, this sequel leaps into larger open fields packed with content, such as side quests and Crucible trials, delivering that signature tension with far more freedom to explore. The real game-changer? Seamless switching between Samurai and Ninja modes mid-fight, allowing you to chain fast-paced combos with Ninjutsu and powerful Onmyo Magic.

Ghost of Yotei checks all the boxes, particularly through a main storyline that hooks you from the very first moment and continues to build powerful emotions. Despite being a story of vengeance, its many familiar moments transform it into a deeply human tale, allowing you to connect with the characters on a profound emotional level. Additionally, there's a wealth of secondary content that genuinely adds depth to the world, rather than feeling like mere filler. While Ghost of Yotei has some minor flaws, it is undoubtedly one of the best releases of 2025 and a video game that deserves to be a strong candidate for Game of the Year.

While much of the industry seems intent on recycling formulas and chasing after others' successes, works like Mixtape remind us of something essential: that there are still video games capable of making us feel something different. Of moving us. Of transporting us back to another moment in our lives. Of helping us breathe a little easier. And in times like these… that is worth as much as oxygen itself.

Within the shooter genre, it's a true gem, and one of the best extraction shooters. I could easily call it the Helldivers 2 of 2025. It's not an extremely innovative title, but everything it does, it does brilliantly. It can be a bit slow, especially at the beginning. But it's incredibly addictive to loot, progress with your character, try new things, and above all, interact with other players, as its social aspect is amazing.

Its gameplay loop is extremely addictive, with tens of hours of egg hunting, deep monster customization and a full-fledged story with strong narrative beats and memorable secondary characters. Visually, the game is stunning, boasting a vibrant anime aesthetic reminiscent of Studio Ghibli. Overall, it’s a great new entry in the Monster Hunter franchise.

Luigi returns with an adventure in which most remarkable virtues hide behind his playable mechanics. Nintendo has managed again to create a game where what we do and the environments we travel through are with connected tightly.

Dragon's Dogma 2 follows pretty closely many aspects from previous entries in the franchise, both the good and the bad. Gameplay-wise, Dragon's Dogma 2 definitely includes elements that feel a little bit outdated, and that could've been tweaked one way or another in order to further improve the overall experience. Still, this is an excellent RPG, and every fan of the genre is certainly in for quite a treat.

Armored Core VI manages to distinguish itself from all the Souls-dependance that FromSoftware has developed in recent years, and also does it while providing fun and challenging gameplay. Some boss battles will require players to tinker with their mechs, but luckily so, the incredible amount of possibilities and combinations that Armored Core VI displays will turn every hard battle into a 'mini puzzle' of sorts.
