The atmosphere of Spider-Man: Miles Morales is something very special. It is clearly politically positioned and the focus is on stories that are neglected in many video game blockbusters. This alone makes the spin-off look new and different, even if the recognition value is actually quite high. But there is still a big, fat recommendation from me.

Exquisitely playable and outstandingly powerful shooter, which noticeably runs out of breath towards the end.

Pragmata offers one of the most unusual gameplay twists of recent years, despite some minor drawbacks.

Great farm sim with a lively Stone Age setting and exciting new ideas.

Extremely well playable anniversary of the Ys series with brisk action, which however has some serious dramaturgical weaknesses.

Nioh 2 is a merciless trip for hardcore gamers that surpasses its predecessor in many ways.

Sure: Due to the weaker hardware, the switch version suffers from blemishes and technical problems that are more noticeable on the TV than on the small screen of the switch. But the great charm of The Witcher 3 ignites anyway in handheld mode.

Good bundle with two absolute action classics, which were lovelessly ported to the 4K era.

Scope, staging, story: Destiny 2 is better than part 1 in every respect, but in the end it's more like an evolution than a revolution.

Pikmin 3 Deluxe has cast a spell over me again. And that's mainly due to the co-op mode. Commanding the small Pikmin army and fighting the Beetle opponents has never been as fun as with another player.

Exciting Japanese thriller in a game world full of convincing characters, the action adventure and brawler gameplay is flawless.

A wonderful love letter to Monkey Island fans that left us with a tear of joy at the end.

Well-done remaster collection with timelessly good glider gameplay and great content.

It's like the first interactive Pixar movie with great graphics and wild action. Small problems are easily compensated for by all that charm and humor.

Varied turn-based strategy in watercolor-anime style with a humane story and a resonating anti-war message.

Kirby makes a furious 3D debut, which is particularly impressive with its loving charm and funny skills.

I am confident that the developers will quickly patch the title into a better shape, and of course we will upgrade. [Provisional Score = 58]

Sugar sweet hero's journey in a believable fairy tale world, which convinces with its successful staging and the "in the middle of it" perspective.

Shadow Tactics: Blade of the Shogun has completely captivated me.

Fantastic Mario Rabbids crossover with beautiful worlds, a deep character system and strategic battles. A switch must-buy.

There is never a second boredom here, because with the Quantum masks and the guest characters there are constantly new mechanics that go beyond (thrilling) jumping and running. I'm looking forward to going through the levels one more time in detail so that I can really discover all the secrets. I accept the funny skins for Crash and Coco as a reward.

The courage of the developers to fundamentally change this sequel pays off.

A timeless and fresh anime epic with thrilling tactical battles.

Some of the most important and best games of all time - and some of them never looked better.

A successful retelling with interesting extras, whose full potential unfolds only near the end of the game.

F1 2021 surpasses its predecessor again and, along with the career co-op mode, makes a fantastic racing game likewise for beginners and experts.

Gears 5, like almost all its predecessors, is an absolutely great action game that has not only technical class, but the The familiar Gears mechanism is so finely honed that I've had so much fun at the cover-up ball games as I've rarely done before.

Forza Motorsport is technically and playfully a blast, but the overall package doesn't quite reach the class of its predecessors.
