Mutant Year Zero is a splendid romp through an apocalyptic world in which tactical stealth battles are the meat of the experience served with a deep, fascinating and carefully crafted world, inhabited by funny and interesting characters.

Avalanche wraps an even more explosive Just Cause title, with extreme weather conditions that produce stunning effects on the island of Solís. Just Cause 4, however, can’t manage to overcome the critical aspects of the past chapters, mostly for the uncompelling plot.

Assassin's Creed Rebellion is an experience with a functional and rather canonical structure, which makes use of all the devices necessary to integrate into the mobile market. However, the formula is effective, thanks to a progression that is not excessively slow and to amusing missions.

Tetris Effect recycles features and gameplay mechanics already seen elsewhere. Yet we are faced with an amazing, beautiful and gorgeous patchwork. One of the best titles on PlayStation VR.

One of the toughest platform-shooter ever made, graphically renewed with a beautiful cartoon style. Can be frustrating for those who prefers a more relaxing challenge.

Abzû is a short but intense, aesthetically inspired experience. Its message has multiple levels of reading and says a lot, without a single word. Journey's inspirations are present and evident, but the title manages to maintain its own identity.

Quotation forthcoming.

Based on the lore of Persona, the gameplay is intuitive and its difficulty will meet all kinds of players' skill.

OkunoKA is a brilliant 2D platform addressed to hardcore gamers. It takes the core ideas behind some of the greatest games of the genre, adding some great ideas to create a unique gameplay and a wonderful experience.

My Hero One's Justice is an ideal fighting game for fans of the series. Unfortunately, the not particularly refined gameplay makes it a repetitive game in the long run.

Project Warlock is an instant old school fps, frenetic and fun, which pays homage to the origins of the genre, rooted in the 90s. It is, however, a playful experience that due to its repetitive and little varied nature may not find the right response in a more general, young and modern public.

Darksiders III is what a Darksiders title should be, even with its flaws. The improved gameplay and the astonishing level design make the game worth playing, even if the main story will not be remembered as one of the best in the franchise.

Despite the excellent foundation on which it is based, Overkill's The Walking Dead is a mediocre production. Although it can still be saved, at present, the excessive repetitiveness and the artificial difficulty imposed by the developers make playing and progressing simply frustrating, ruining the experience.

Bethesda has betrayed Fallout's spirit to create a game full of bugs and without a soul.

World of Final Fantasy Maxima is a sensible project that finds a precise dimension on the Nintendo Switch. It is an excellent opportunity to enjoy or recover (even in mobile) a surprisingly effective and deep title, despite some slight technical limitation due to a less reliable hardware.

Unfortunately the game is an unrefined mess, full of bugs, framerate drops and bad physics. It’s more a puzzle-platformer with stealth and some basic rpg elements instead of an rpg dungeon crawler, and it’s not so immersive and free as the developers think. Maybe it will be improved, in fact the graphic it’s good and so the locations design, but right now it’s not the spiritual successor that backers deserved.

A smart adaptation that use Switch full potential. A great game that is fun to play both with touch and analogic controls.

Quotation forthcoming.

The classic, super fun, Just Dance. The Joy-Cons works wonderfully, while more readable menus make the user experience more satisfying.

A gorgeous looking game filled with fairy tale narrative and easy gameplay elements... maybe a little too easy.

Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a remake to be considered as a reworking of the original games. The work done by the development team is commendable, they not only recreated the stories of the American team with a new look, but they also enriched them in details and in the gameplay. Insomniac's work has stood the test of time, and thanks to the work of Toys For Bob, it is reborn, beautiful as ever, and able to give hours of fun to those who played it two decades ago as well as those who never had the chance.

Battlefield V is a solid experience crafted from BF1 for BF1’s fans. It’s a great start for a game that in the next months (hopefully) is going to show its true potential.

Somewhere in the middle between a regular Pokémon episode and an entry-level spin-off, Pokémon Let’s Go manages to entertain both the seasoned player and the newcomer. It’s easy, OK, but not less fun, and returning to Kanto is a treat.

The second chapter of the recent Hitman (2016) is a “more of the same”, with some minor adjustments and more multiplayer support. IO abandons the episodic format but the sensation of playing a fragmented game is still there. Except for this, Hitman 2 presents spectacular scenarios and some challenges worthy of note. The level design is still wonderful and compensates for a certain lack of innovation.

Just like Valiant Heart from Ubisoft, My Memory of Us tackles a heavy subject with the tenderness of a friendship and (too) easy gameplay mechanics.

Steel Rats is a title that we want to promote, thanks to a successful hybridization of playing styles that are not too simple to match and an immediate, amusing and at the same time varied and satisfying play structure. The smudging of the title is mainly linked to an excessively minimal narrative segment and to a sometimes ineffective sense of progression. Nonetheless, these are rather marginal aspects in the calculation of such an immediate, frenetic and enjoyable experience.
