    Lapis X Labyrinth is a good action RPG, able to entertain thanks to a well packaged mix of video game subgenres, a frantic and immediate combat system and a convincing role structure. The biggest shadow is certainly represented by the extremely repetitive structure of the quests.

    Beyond the mere narrative component, which will best capture only manga and anime (or Japanese) fans, The Princess Guide is an action-RPG with really a lot of meat on the fire. The problem is that this meat is so much that it ends up "burning". Translated: fast fights but too chaotic and dirty from a series of written on the screen to the limit of understandable, menu and submenu that will put in difficulty even the most experienced players.

    This new (and supposedly last) edition of Final Fantasy XII perfects the already excellent one on PlayStation 4 in 2017 and the following year on PC.

    The survival of Fade to Silence is certainly good, credible and well structured. Severe for the most hurried players but at the same time will reward strategists. Unfortunately it lacks all that undergrowth of contents that give soul and "color" to a video game, like a real campaign, fiction, secondary activities, not to mention decidedly mediocre graphics and combat system.

    Produced by SEGA and developed by Sumo Digital, Team Sonic Racing is the third installment in the kart racing series with Sonic and his friends as stars of the show. This time it is all about Sonic: characters and location are restricted to the series and there is a new vehicle customization system. Even if the graphics are improved, game contents and experience see a step forward and even if the game can be enjoyable at times, it will not match the greatness of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

    World War Z is a third-person shooter video game developed by Saber Interactive based on the 2006 book of the same name, and set in the same universe as the 2013 film adaptation. The game follows groups of survivors of a zombie apocalypse in the cities of Moscow, New York, Jerusalem, and Tokyo. The plot is not very appealing and the sixteen characters are poorly characterized. The gameplay inspired by Left 4 Dead is fun in the early hours of the game, but it doesn't have much longevity.

    Based on the original Japanese coin-op game, Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission is a pure fan-service gem. With more than 350 characters covered and over 1000 collectible cards, there is a lot of stuff to have fun with. Even if it is a card-based game, you can still feel the signature action of regular Dragon Ball Games.

    Anthem is certainly not a perfect production, considering the bad AI, the disappointing netcode and the way the online works. However, it has few (and not negligible) qualities, like a well-defined narrative universe, an excellent gameplay able to take advantage of the diversity of the javelins, undisputed protagonists, and a top-quality artistic component. Despite the few endgame activities present at the launch, Anthem still manages to adequately stimulate the development of the character, thanks to a good distribution of rewards.
