    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order
    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 is comfort food. It retains the multiplayer dungeon crawling and love of the source material that made the two previous titles enjoyable, but it also elevates the action just enough to make it better and more entertaining than what came before. Not all of it works as well as it should, yet it’s vision isn’t compromised by the missteps it makes. You’re going to have a good time when you play Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3. And sometimes, that’s all you really need.

    Worse Than Death
    While not being the scariest horror game of this year by modern standards, Worse Than Death is a game that feels personal and terrifying at the same time.

    World of Warships: Legends
    While I was skeptical at first, World of Warships has made the transition to consoles better than I thought possible, and is a blast to play.

    SolSeraph
    While it’s very easy to see the elements that inspired SolSeraph, the game fails to capture why any of these memorable mechanics are worth revisiting or reinventing.
    • 86 Metascore

    Dragon Quest Builders 2
    Players looking for a fun co-op experience or those who don’t care about paying a little extra can quickly jump into Dragon Quest Builders 2 for an improved experience and a healthy dose of new mechanics and features.

    Sea of Solitude
    A clearly personal story told in a bland repetitive 3D platformer with padded gameplay, terrible voice acting, and no subtlety.

    Second Hand: Frankie's Revenge
    Despite the negative stigma surrounding early access games, Second Hand: Frankies Revenge, manages to overcome those expectations and deliver a fun experience.

    Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers
    Shadowbringers is more than just a masterful arc in a beloved tale; it’s one of the best Final Fantasy stories ever realized, showcasing an MMORPG at the apex of its craft.

    Samurai Shodown
    While lacking in diverse combat, Samurai Shodown’s intentionally slower combat offers a fresh style of gameplay worth experiencing.

    Super Mario Maker 2
    The Switch makes a near-perfect home for Super Mario Maker 2, an exceptional platformer as well as a boundless course editor.

    The Sinking City
    The Sinking City struggles under the weight of its ambition, but it’s compelling mysteries and horrific world make it a compelling journey.

    Observation
    Observation is a thought provoking, eerie space drama with dubious computers, failing equipment, and very threatening geometry. Don’t let it get away from you.

    Crash Team Racing: Nitro-Fueled
    Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled breaks casual expectations, delivering a much needed jolt of speed and a high skill ceiling to reinvigorate my love for the genre.

    Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring The Legend of Zelda
    Cadence of Hyrule is a lovingly crafted, challenging, but rewarding ode to 30 years of music.

    Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
    Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is everything that was great about Igarashi’s Metroidvania titles all rolled into one, and feels like it will be as timeless a game as Symphony of the Night.

    My Friend Pedro
    This game is Bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.

    Judgment
    Judgment may be linked to Yakuza’s legacy, but it still provides a great reason to explore Kamurocho once again.

    Slay the Spire
    A loving homage to a niche sub-genre of days gone past, Slay the Spire uses procedurally-generated challenges to keep its deck-building gameplay fresh.

    Duck Game
    Anyone looking for a game that offers an almost endless amount of replayability should definitely check out Duck Game, especially those who have a couple of friends to play with.

    Yuppie Psycho
    Yuppie Psycho is a solid adventure game that plays rough with first-timers, but offers enough hidden content to make exploring worthwhile.

    • 75 Critic Score
    Dauntless
    Dauntless is a great entry point to hunting games that is easily accessible to players who have yet to experience the thrill of the hunt.

    Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth
    Persona Q2’s has a lot of fun dungeon crawling to offer, but doesn’t make the most of its great cast’s time together.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Gato Roboto
    Gato Roboto is a simple, cute, short but enjoyable Metroidvania with fun mobility and satisfying gunplay.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Warhammer: Chaosbane
    Warhammer: Chaosbane borrows the elements that made past action RPGs of the same genre so addicting , perhaps sticking a bit too closely, resulting in a game that may feel a little too familiar for veterans of the genre.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Trover Saves the Universe
    When Trover Saves the Universe is funny, it’s VERY funny, but its humor is just not enough to carry such an average, unspectacular game.

    • 85 Critic Score
    Blood & Truth
    Priced at a more reasonable, $50, Blood & Truth comfortably finds a middle ground between a full retail release and something more indicative of a smaller, VR experience. Owners of PSVR, especially those yearning for more, after their time with PlayStation Worlds, are wholly encouraged to check out Blood & Truth.

    Layers of Fear 2
    Layers of Fear 2 is striking in its unsettling places, but is a looser experience than its predecessor, losing the player with busywork puzzles and winding corridors.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    World End Syndrome
    World End Syndrome offers a gripping mystery about undead and lost folklores, yet also a touching story about the hidden trials of those who suffer in silence.
