A true testament to the wild beauty of football, PES 2019 continues to emphasize on the unique, best in class gameplay that truly sets it apart. But even the eye-catching football can’t distract us anymore from the fact that its weak points are even weaker this year. With stale modes, missing licenses, ancient UI and menus, PES is in dire need of a dynamic upgrade.

While its art style is significantly different from its predecessor, Runner 2 is still one of the most addictive and immersing experiences you'll find in the "indie" category of platforming videogames.

A perfect way for new gamers to learn the story of Max before they delve deep into Max Payne 3.

The great graphics, nice - interconnected between the characters - story mode and enjoyable fighting system make Team Ninja's latest game a worthy contender for the title of the genre.

Although Mushroom 11 may seem as another generic addition to the oversaturated indie platform genre, this couldn’t be further from the truth. Untame’s effort succeeds in distancing itself from the competition thanks to a completely unique gameplay accompanied by cleverly designed environmental puzzles.

A wondrous surrealistic adventure on and through the living branches of a "magical" tree, Botanicula is a beautiful addition to Amanita's game roster.

The majesty of the original trilogy is absent in this game, but after the bland first few chapters the pace is lifted and we end up with a decent addition to the franchise. Next time The Coalition must try harder.

A 2D Zelda clone with a large, charming world full of secrets that unfortunately is not on par with the series that it copies, but can surely offer a great experience to Zelda fans.

A hauntingly beautiful experience that offers both the relaxation and the suspense of deep sea diving in a simple yet enthralling way.

It might not be one of the best of the genre, but it's certainly worthy in all its aspects and something that's definitely worth playing today. And most of all, it goes to show that the Terrible Toybox team knows and understands the genre like few do today.

Some cleverly crafted puzzles, a functional main gameplay mechanism (albeit not so original) and a decent variety of levels and gimmicks to spice up the later challenges contribute to a very good summer option for puzzle platformer lovers.

Neva's strengths, similarly with the case of Gris, lie in its touching story, exploring themes of parenthood and coming of age. We feel that a bit more challenge could enhance the experience, nevertheless, few games manage to evoke such strong feelings, especially without a single word spoken.

With Yakuza 0 overflowing with complexity and quality material, you would have expected Yakuza 6 to go for an even larger and more spectacular final story of its main character’s ark. Surprisingly, the developers chose to trim the fat and return to the starting origins of the show. While it does feel like a step backwards in some cases, it does allows for a far more dramatic experience and believable storyline where you can actually feel the intent of the characters and get invested in them and their lives. A solid, well crafted ending to one of Sega’s greatest stars.

Xenoblade Chronicles is a technological achievement and a breath of fresh air in a decaying breed that desperately needs such efforts to keep it goin΄. Players need to invest dozens of hours roaming on the petrified body of Titan Bionis to reveal the secret and the true power of Monado. And they're going to be such great hours!

With its superb graphics, interesting -albeit difficult to follow for the uninitiated- story and intense multiplayer, Ace Combat 7 is a return to shape for Namco's long running franchise. There are some cons here, like the too few VR missions and the quite poor AI, but overall this is a great arcade flight sim.

Dark surrealism permeates the soul of the player in one of the strangest and more interesting adventure games we’ve seen in a long while.

FIFA 23 keeps the high standards of the series in content, modes and visual display, closing one chapter and opening another for EA. However, it does not reinvent the wheel, it does not pioneer, it does not take risks, it does not bring something new or fresh. FIFA 23 simply executes, and scores in a match that will probably be quickly forgotten.

More of an audiobook than video game, Dagon: Complete Edition is a fitting tribute to Lovecraft's work. The experience is elevated by excellent narration and quality prose, immersing players in an atmospheric journey.

A unique platform game with clever ideas, imaginative gameplay and a well written story. A Story About My Uncle is one of a few indie titles you can buy immediately without waiting for a flash sale or a bundle.

After Kora, Platinum Games took a step further and delivered what can only be described as a "dream come true" for anyone who watched the first generation of Transformers on the TV during the 1980s.

Drawing inspiration from such classics as Limbo and Bastion, Nihilumbra will travel you to a beautiful world full of clever puzzles and great platforming moments.

Temple of Osiris is a worthy successor to the Guardian of Light and is going to offer a lot of fun (especially when you try the co-op mode) even if it doesn't last long enough.

Capcom once again strikes a high note with the new Resident Evil entry, though this time its ambition introduces a few rough edges. Requiem delivers excellent survival horror during Grace’s sections and offers a wealth of Easter eggs and references for longtime fans to dissect. However, in attempting to incorporate the best elements from the franchise’s many, and often wildly different, installments, it occasionally feels somewhat disjointed. Even so, Requiem stands as yet another strong addition to Capcom’s seemingly never-ending streak of quality releases.

Full Control revisits the “Space Hulk” franchise by improving the game in every possible field. Deep tactical turn based battle approach, interesting unit customisation, true to the tabletop source material design and a claustrophobic atmosphere deliver an excellent game.
