Steins Gate 0 is a great game that surpasses its predecessor a fact that makes it a must-play for the fans of the series.

An RTS game made exclusively for hardcore PC gamers. It's beautifully crafted, but too damn hard! You have been warned.

Yet again we are offered a campaign that is short and lacking innovation, but at the same time the multiplayer modes alongside the greatly improved Zombies mode are a return to glory for the franchise.

Void Bastards draws easily the attention thanks to its charming comic aesthetic and to the cel shaded visuals. Moreover, its frenetic pace means that you could spend less than an hour at a time and yet feel like you have a fulfilling experience. Alas, the different enemy types and spaceship designs start to get repetitive a little too soon, changing the sense of excitement to tedium far before the rescue of our ragtag group.

Although very similar to WRC 8, the new entry in the franchise by KT Racing (and the last WRC game by this team) is even more polished and improves the additions made in last year's game.

Even though it has interesting puzzles and charming art direction, Affordable Space Adventures feels like a missed opportunity.

Hellblade 2 delivers exactly what fans of the first game should expect. A compelling continuation of Senua's arduous journey, with some of the best visuals we've seen, exceptional storytelling, and amazing audio design. It's a cinematic experience at its best.

A stunningly beautiful 3D action-adventure that combines environmental puzzles, exploration and Dark Souls-like (both in implementation and challenge) combat.

A game that reminds us why at one point in time, adventure games ruled the earth.

With a set of great new characters, some tweaking on the fighting mechanics and a superb online mode, the "Ultimate" version of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is a must buy for those who missed the original version.

Gears Tactics is a fine addition to the franchise and offers engaging turn-based combat. It brings a fresh air to the genre by making good use of its distinctive gameplay mechanics hailing from the “Gears of War” heritage. Although it may have great variety in terms of enemies, abilities and classes, it lacks -especially mid/late in the game- in mission structure, objectives and environmental diversity.

Among the many Warriors games, this is one of the good ones. Rich story with three distinct paths, many elements straight from the Fire Emblem games and the well known Warriors action gameplay make it a good choice for fans of both franchises.

This is a simplistic albeit immensely entertaining game if you experience it with a friend. The demanding situations of the later stages will require your utter cooperation leading to exciting battles for survival. Being designed as a primarily co-op experience, though, you should prepare for a more dull and trivial experience if you approach it as a single player game.

This stand-alone expansion will probably satisfy all those CoH fans that were disappointed by the second game.

A nice addition to a great series, Gods & Kings offers a lot of new content, but neglects to fix all the problems of the original game.

Fire Emblem: Engage is an unexpected main series title that is about to grace the Nintendo Switch consoles of tactical RPG fans. It is a game that manages to pushes the boundaries of the overall gameplay experience, yet makes some choices that lead us to the very distant past of the series, where various elements did not just matter. It is a pleasant adventure that will happily take some 40 hours of the players’ free time, yet fails to provide a monumental experience like its predecessor did.

It's not the "behemoth" many were expecting, but that doesn't mean Watch Dogs is not delivering what Ubisoft had promised in almost every respect. If you like "open-world" games with a twist, this is for you. And if you have the option you should definitely go for the next-gen or PC versions.

As an origin story, the game dares to walk an unexplored action-adventure path, a first for the series, offering an overall gameplay experience that is different, but equally mesmerizing. Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon is a fairy tale through and through, with some of the most stunning visuals ever encountered in the genre. The lack of a co-op implementation deprives the game of a potentially excellent status, but somehow it manages to offer a magical experience, leaving us dreaming of what could come next.

The overall quality of the main game, together with the interesting and entertaining new content, make the Gold Edition of Resident Evil Village a must play for anyone that had missed the game up until now.

With stunning visuals, a mature story and multiple endings Detroit: Become Human is Quantic Dream’s best game. The PC port, despite some minor frame rate issues, is a great way to experience the game if you haven’t already played the PlayStation 4 version.

A well written noir adventure, with a nicely built choice driven gameplay and jazzpunk aesthetics.

It might have a cliffhanger ending, poorly developed party and multiple crashes in its MacOs/Linux version, but it is hard to argue that this is the best “bad guy” RPG we have ever seen. Impressive lore, deep storytelling, meaningful choices and beautifully crafted character development make this new gem from Obsidian yet another must play for RPG aficionados.

Football Manager 2017 is an excellent football management experience, with tons of information and an incredible depth in every field of management. The engine is solid, running smoothly, but it needs a complete upgrade in the future.

It's bigger, more enjoyable and quite better than its predecessors. But the formula has now been used too much. Ubisoft needs to make some major changes in the next installment.

For anyone feeling nostalgic for the RTS era of Command & Conquer and Red Alert, Tempest Rising is here to fill that gap. Its lengthy and exciting campaign, along with its balanced and diverse pair of factions, is sure to keep you hooked for hours.

The newest F1 entry from Codemasters delivers a much-needed improvement for the series. Its presentation is excellent, the handling feels impressively realistic, and AI opponents react believably. Most notably, the career mode is the best in the franchise, with the potential to keep you hooked for hours.

A true sports simulator of the highest quality, offering the complete package for every basketball fan. Amazing gameplay and visuals, shiny presentation, a parade of big names and – you guessed it - microtransactions. Lots of them. For a game that supposedly represents the urban hoods and the streets, it often feels like a consumer stroll through a digital Walmart…

Mike Bithell is a talented game designer and that shows in his second endeavor. While it may not have the charm and unforgettable status that Thomas Was Alone had, Volume is nevertheless a competent stealth/puzzle game that is utterly fun to play and a joy to hear, thanks to a (mostly) great cast of voice actors.
