    Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon is a great choice for open-world RPG fans, especially those who enjoy the formula popularized by The Elder Scrolls. While it doesn’t reinvent the genre, it stands out with its original Arthurian-inspired narrative, satisfying combat, and detailed exploration. Despite some technical shortcomings, the game offers an immersive and rewarding experience for those willing to overlook its flaws.

    Deliver At All Costs fully embraces the chaos and absurdity of deliveries, offering genuinely fun moments through its varied and creative missions. However, it lacks depth in some mechanics and consequences for player actions, which could make the experience more engaging. Still, it’s a lighthearted game, perfect for those seeking quick and uncomplicated fun.

    Capcom Fighting Collection 2 brings back games that were previously locked to old or hard-to-access consoles. This is an essential package for collectors and fighting game fans, offering variety, accessibility, and a comprehensive look at different phases of Capcom’s legacy in the genre. It’s just a shame that the work is rather basic, lacking the extra features some of these games received in their past console conversions.

    The Precinct puts the player in the role of a police officer in the 1980s, focusing on patrols, chases, and crime fighting. The game has good ideas, such as character progression and an interesting setting, but it suffers from weak AI, uncharismatic characters, and repetitive gameplay.

    Doom: The Dark Ages is a good game within the Doom franchise. The shield introduces some interesting ideas to the gameplay, but the changes to combat, making it more methodical, didn’t appeal to me as much. The limited number of Glory Kills and the soundtrack also leave something to be desired. Still, if you're a fan of the franchise, you'll probably have a lot of fun with the game.

    The Midnight Walk impresses with its clay stop-motion visuals and unique art direction that make the experience memorable. The symbolic narrative and immersive atmosphere captivate, even though the basic gameplay doesn’t fully reach its potential. Despite its short length and high price, it’s one of the most artistic audiovisual experiences of 2025 and worth picking up on sale.

    With a robust progression tree, dozens of pieces with varying effects, bosses with unique mechanics, and branching paths that influence difficulty, Drop Duchy delivers a strategic experience focused on planning and experimentation.

    Shotgun Cop Man is a fast-paced, straightforward, and humorous experience that relies on a creative mechanic to offer something different within the 2D platformer genre. While it lacks enemy variety and more robust challenges, the game delivers fun moments, especially for those looking for something light and casual.

    KIBORG is not a bad game, but it's not an exceptional title either. It sits in a comfortable middle ground: it features well-executed melee combat, admirable technical stability, and solid progression systems, but it falls short in crucial aspects such as enemy variety, narrative depth, and audiovisual quality.

    Days Gone Remastered is a good game, although it falls short compared to other Sony franchises. However, the additions and improvements are too few to justify a new playthrough unless you have never played it before and are curious, or if you are a big fan of Deacon St. John's journey.

    Virtuos and Bethesda nailed it in preserving the spirit of the game, but they could have gone further in fixing structural flaws. If you're a fan of Tamriel's adventures, you'll smile at every bug and laugh at every bizarre conversation between NPCs, so don't expect a flawless experience in here.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 delivers everything it had been promising—and then some. The game has everything that makes an RPG great, along with a story that will completely grip you from beginning to end.

    Post Trauma is a solid debut with flaws typical of a first project, but its passion for survival horror shines, offering a worthwhile dose of psychological terror and puzzles.

    Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves gets the basics right and is a fun game, but that’s not enough to live up to Garou: Mark of the Wolves or to stand on the top shelf of fighting games — and Cristiano Ronaldo and Salvatore Ganacci, instead of being meaningful additions, do the game no favors.

    Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree is a solid action RPG that delivers fun for fans of the Metroidvania genre. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it gets the fundamentals right — the tried-and-true basics. In a year packed with major releases and heavy-hitting games dropping every week, that might not be enough for everyone.

    Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is a highly recommended experience for fans of the character and the action-adventure genre. Despite minor technical issues and inconsistent AI, the game stands out thanks to its strong narrative, excellent combat system, and exploration filled with intriguing secrets.

    LUNAR Remastered Collection is a basic update of two RPGs in the best 1990s style, featuring beautiful animated cutscenes and charismatic casts. However, the difficulty of the battles may cause newer fans of the genre to take longer to appreciate the quality of the two available games.

    Blue Prince is a very interesting puzzle roguelike that made me think more about it the longer I played. Its only problem is that, even after understanding how it works, it relies more on luck than on your grasp of the rules, which can be very time consuming.

    Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition rescues one of the last Wii U exclusives while preserving the strong sense of discovery it offered. With new story sections, an improved interface, and great combat, the Switch version is the best way to enjoy the RPG.

    South of Midnight is a game with an interesting story and a distinctive art style, but the gameplay itself is fairly standard at its best and irritatingly repetitive at its worst, whether in combat or exploration. The overly talkative protagonist also hurts the experience, though the game may still find its audience — it’s not a bad game, but far from a memorable one.

    RoboCop: Rogue City may seem modest at first, but it grows on you, offering a satisfying 12–15 hour FPS experience perfect for fans or casual play.

    AI LIMIT delivers great combat, map design, and story, but suffers from repetitive enemies, forgettable bosses, and reused environments — still worth it for genre fans.

    The First Berserker: Khazan is a Souls-like with excellent combat and striking anime-style visuals, but its quest system and limited weapon variety may not appeal to everyone. Fans of Nioh will likely feel right at home.

    Atomfall isn’t for everyone — the lack of fast travel alone will turn many away. But if you enjoy slow, methodical exploration, it might be exactly what you’re looking for.

    Assassin’s Creed Shadows shows Ubisoft can take fan feedback seriously, delivering a long yet engaging game. With strong leads like Naoe and Yasuke, it’s a must-play for series fans.

    Enigma of Fear is a standout in the Brazilian game scene, with impressive art direction, soundtrack, and voice acting. It shines in puzzles and atmosphere, despite its simple combat.

    Atelier Yumia is the most accessible entry in the series, with a strong open-world approach and solid story, though combat can feel repetitive. Lack of PT-BR may deter some potential fans in Brazil, but English-speaking JRPG fans will find a great experience here.

    Mullet Madjack is perfect for quick breaks or long sessions, offering fast-paced runs that keep you constantly moving. Just beware if you're prone to motion sickness — it’s intense.

    While Konami only went slightly beyond the basics, Suikoden I&II HD Remaster is still a great way to experience two classic RPGs that have aged well and show the series’ former strength.
