FX Interactive gives us a strategic videogame especially suited to the super fan of the genre.

Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood takes all the best features of his prequel a further step ahead. With strong graphics, always fresh gameplay, an interesting plot and a bit of humor, Bound in Blood reaches the high grades in our rankings, being one of the best FPS in the business.

Dying Light 2: Stay Human is a title that struggles to bear the weight of its ambitions, as a result of a development path that in all probability proved to be more bumpy than expected.

Zeno Clash is not a perfect game, but it has got some qualities that will let you help to download that from Steam or Direct2Drive. It is essentially hybrid, between FPS and Beat'em up. The visual aspect is impressive and the story is well built. The system control is defective and the game is short, so we can't suggest you to buy it blind, but to try the demo and make your choice.

What an incredible year: after Inside, here's another software taht will influence and change the way we'll experience a story. Virginia is not a good game. Neither a good movie. It is something different: something new.

Rune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moon isn't a "more of the same": is a "same of the same ". Recommended only for beginners.

With an incredible level design and a wonderful graphic, Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams is one of the great examples for the indie industry; maybe one of the most difficult platform games of recent years.

Trinity Team takes advantage of the experience accumulated with the first episode and creates a sequel that is richer and more refined in every aspect. Bud Spencer & Terence Hill: Slaps and Beans 2 is a heartfelt homage to a duo who wrote the history of Italian cinema, with music, references and quotes capable of honoring the legend of Carlo Pedersoli and Mario Girotti. In general, we are faced with a solid beat 'em up, varied at the right point thanks also to the presence of numerous minigames, splendid to see as well as to listen to. Between some hitbox problems and sudden spikes in difficulty, there are some rough edges, yet the title has what it takes to intrigue fans of the genre. If Bud and Terence have played an important role in your life, then we can't tell you anything other than: make it yours immediately, otherwise we'll get angry!

Ultimately, Luigi's Mansion 2 HD presents itself to fans with an aesthetic appearance of undoubted quality and with the usual, brilliant gameplay of the series. Some structural defects, borrowed directly from the original version, return to make their cumbersome presence felt and the mere existence of the wonderful third chapter ends up dampening the enthusiasm a bit about this iteration of the franchise which, in any case, remains a recommended purchase for anyone who wants to dive into the spooky atmospheres typical of the series, or is looking for a good action/adventure to take their mind off the summer heat.

Project Zero 2: Wii Edition is a state of the art survival horror, and this alone should be enough to tempt the genre's aficionados.

An experiment that ultimately presents itself as solid overall, but which perhaps would have best expressed its potential in a more contained format.

It really pushes the boundaries of the musou genre in new, interesting directions. It might be still repetitive, but it's so deep and compelling when it comes to combat, that it will keep you glued to your seat for many hours.

Humankind, in short, raises the quality standards of 4X games, placing itself as the perfect "rival" of Civilization. This net of some gleanings that could be filed through future updates and secure expansions. If you are a lover of this genre, you can't really skip the appointment with the work of Amplitude. The future, full support for mods and the world editor will contribute to enrich the title seamlessly.

The peculiar mix of roleplaying and soccer is back. Despite loosing some of the appeal of the first chapters, it will still please the fans.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 is a reboot of the series: pace and reactions had toned down for a boost in realism and the "360 degrees pass" system does a great job in involving the player on the pitch. Unfortunately there's a consistent lack in animation quality that spoils the experience.

Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection is an excellent collection of three titles that have made the history of their genre. The gaming experience may be anachronistic for the youngest, but it is a nostalgia operation that works very well: beyond some aspects penalized by the console, such as the need to get a stylus not supplied to better map the dungeons, we are facing a return of a piece of history of the Nintendo DS. Among other things, the amount of content within the package is remarkable, to the delight of fans of the series.

Quotation forthcoming.

Rich, multifaceted and articulated, Indivisible is a product that hybrid different genres in an undoubtedly successful amalgam, and which structures a simple but amiable narrative, with a progression halfway between role-playing and metroidvania.

Rich in lore and full of interesting characters, the world of Shattered Heaven pushes the player to explore it, net of an overwhelming amount of information at times, which is a bit heavy especially in the second part of the adventure. The excellent artistic direction and the multifaceted combat system, thanks to the guessed card game structure, manage to keep the pleasantness of the experience high, net of some balancing problems, clearly evident especially during the boss fights. In any case, the title developed by Leonardo Production offers an interesting mix of playful elements, which fans of role-playing adventures with cards in hand should not underestimate.

EA Sports FC 26 arrives at the event as the latest, richly detailed installment in one of the most successful video game franchises. It's unlikely to dissuade critics, but it will offer fans a whole host of changes and tweaks derived directly from community feedback. Furthermore, the two new gameplay settings could make the experience accessible to those less accustomed to the frenetic gameplay fans have come to know, while the additions to the already impressive content plan should ensure everyone has something to enjoy. On the other hand, it's also an installment with many added qualities in terms of attacking play, but it has a few defensive difficulties that will need to be addressed soon to ensure the most exciting and entertaining experience possible for the general public.

With its vibrant pops of color and excellent use of eye tracking in managing telekinesis, Synapse stands out as one of the productions that make the most of the potential and unique features of PlayStation VR 2. Despite the general lack of variety, the nDreams game remains a roguelite shooter with explosive gameplay and an excellently calibrated progression system, able to keep the user's interest alive thanks to a good level of challenge and the possibility of experimenting with different fighting styles. The presence of famous voice actors such as David Hayter and Jennifer Hale adds a special touch, not so much for the quality of the plot, but for the care and attention with which the entire experience has been packaged, comparable to what one might to expect from a first party title.

If we could extrapolate the sole essence of the narrative sector of Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE, our judgment on the production would be much more flattering. Unfortunately, the new creation of the authors of Danganronpa is plagued by some problems related to the rhythm of the story. A technical sector that is not too dusty and gameplay elements that are not fully developed help to limit the great potential of Too Kyo Games' work. Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE remains in any case a title capable of being appreciated by lovers of investigative adventures with disturbing atmospheres.

Anomaly 2 is the perfect sequel of Anomaly: Warzone Earth, and the multiplayer, in addition, grant the possibility to challenge human players for the first time.

Element4l is a "back to basics" of platform gaming. Brilliant.

Samurai Warriors 5 is the ideal chapter to approach the franchise for the first time and retrace the deeds of the valiant leaders experienced during the sengoku era of feudal Japan.

Observer therefore remains a horror-tinged investigative thriller that absolutely deserves to be experienced and, thanks to the next gen, also “felt” on your skin.

Apocalypse is solid, funny and extremely various. A little bit chaotic, maybe; but as the track design is so brilliant, we can forgive the flaws of the engine.

A very unique experience, which mixes delicate graphics to the gritty storytelling of the worst war the world has come to know. When it tries to be anything less than tragic, it might lack some of that energy, but it's still a game anyone should at least give a try.
