    With fast-paced, unpredictable gameplay, Killer Queen Black is a must-play multiplayer experience that breaks out from its arcade roots.

    Call of Duty: Mobile is a surprisingly great first-person shooter with buttery smooth controls that has me addicted.

    Codemasters' attempt to revive GRID has a lot of great ideas but struggles to bring them all together in a cohesive fashion.

    John Wick Hex is a nice, fun, and stylistic bite-sized adventure that's absolutely worth your time.

    Ghost Recon Breakpoint’s greatest selling point is the fact that players can dictate their own experience.

    With an enriching story, characters, and scenery, Indivisible is a spectacle and one of the best action platformers I’ve ever played.

    Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince stands as one of the strongest games within its own series.

    Side-scrolling sequel Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair has creative ideas, assuming you have the patience to wrangle with its difficulty.

    Neo Cab has a good sense for subtlety and for real human emotion.

    Police Stories is a solid tactical shooter that is great to play together with a friend. It is a short experience with a story that doesn’t really matter but is competent enough to fulfill its role. I’m hoping that more levels are added in the future because the entire game can be completed in six to eight hours. Even with the small tweaks that need to be fixed, Police Stories offers fun gameplay and the need for extensive communication in co-op, which is exactly what I wanted and expected.

    Contra: Rogue Corps joins Bomberman: Act Zero and Hideo Kojima's firing as one of Konami's biggest disappointments.

    Daemon X Machina may very well be one of the most refined mech-based shooters, but some questionable design choices leave more to be desired from the game.

    Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast still provides the best lightsaber combat in any Star Wars game to date.

    Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avengers iX is a fast-paced but well-designed platformer that keeps up Inti Creates' streak of awesome games.

    Code Vein features anime vampires and fast combat, but it's too reliant on the exact Soulslike formula to stand out on its own.

    Short, sweet, and simple, Sayonara Wild Hearts is a package of positivity, with music and visuals that will sure to win anyone over.

    Cat Quest II is a fun romp, but the thrills on offer are a bit shallow.

    I have a difficult time not recommending Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered as a whole.

    The Surge 2 is still a fun improvement over the original that will win more people over with its tight and well-designed environments and combat.

    House House's Untitled Goose Game is undoubtedly a hilarious experience, but it lacks a varied toolset to maximize said hilarity.

    Combining strategy, procedural-generation, and survival, Finji's Overland is a challenging, memorable trip across post-apocalyptic America.

    Borderlands 3 comes with great growth in gameplay, but a safe story that had the opportunity for so much more.

    FIFA 20's excellent Volta mode, engaging changes to Ultimate Team, and potentially cool features to Career Mode don't make up for subpar soccer gameplay.

    NBA 2K20 feels like the smallest leap that the series has made in years, even if the core gameplay still remains enjoyable.

    PES 2020 is a gorgeous, curling free-kick from the legendary boot of David Beckham that just misses the top right corner as time expires.

    NHL 20 is the best the series has been this console generation. Improving upon the changes made in NHL 19, the game has never felt better. The changes may seem subtle, but they really tighten up the gameplay enough for it to feel better than its predecessors. Besides the distracting scoreboard, the presentation has received the same treatment, truly immersing you in the action on the ice.

    It’s too funny, too unique, and too unpredictable to miss, and the Switch port, while flawed, offers an adequate way of experiencing it.

    Gears 5 is perhaps the best entry in the long-running shooter series and stands as one of the best games of the Xbox One era.
