    Donkey Kong Bananza delivers everything we hoped for in a modern 3D adventure starring Nintendo’s most beloved ape. Its addictive, destruction-focused gameplay, clever level design, and surprisingly developed story are definite highlights. However, the lack of real challenge makes it feel too easy at times. On top of that, the overwhelming amount of collectibles feels excessive and unnecessary for a game that didn’t need them to shine.

    Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 takes the easy route by delivering a game that feels almost identical to the previous remaster, but falls short due to a number of choices that cut back on the original content. With nearly unchanged gameplay, little to no meaningful innovation, trimmed features, and underwhelming visuals, the overall experience ends up feeling diminished.

    Shadow Labyrinth is a strange Metroidvania (in the best possible way) that sets itself apart through numerous references to Bandai Namco’s history, not just as easter eggs, but as core gameplay elements. It features a challenging yet fair difficulty curve, though its cryptic story starts off slow. While the environments can feel a bit repetitive, the game still manages to be engaging throughout.

    Patapon 1+2 Replay is a collection of two beloved titles that have stood the test of time. Both games are easy to pick up but offer a fair learning curve, with a clever mix of rhythm and strategy that will have players humming along to the beat. As a remaster, it only includes the essential updates to run on modern consoles, and it’s unclear why the third installment wasn’t included. Still, it remains a solid and enjoyable collection.

    Atlus hits the mark with Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army, bringing back a cult classic beloved by fans of the company.

    Fans of roguelikes will find Battle Train to be a unique and entertaining blend of strategy and deck-building. Its strongest points are its animation-style presentation and genre-mixing gameplay, which challenge players to think carefully. However, some design choices may feel questionable from a gameplay standpoint and could push away less experienced players.

    This is a charming game that receives a well-deserved remaster, not just visually but also in gameplay and new additions that enhance the original experience.

    Survival Kids is a simple co-op game made for younger players, but it’s not the big return many fans were expecting. It’s more fun when played with friends, which helps make the experience better. Still, older or longtime players probably won’t get much out of it beyond a few fun afternoons but (only) if played with others.

    Kojima solidifies his status with this sequel which, while largely continuing the formula, improves on many fronts. One of the standout aspects is the story—more accessible this time—while still preserving the central theme of human connection, both narratively and through gameplay. It remains a game that won’t appeal to everyone, but those who enjoyed the first one will likely love this follow-up.

    Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is a clear example of the great effort CD Projekt Red put into bringing this port to the Nintendo Switch 2, with excellent optimization to enjoy the game on the console. Whether docked or in handheld mode, the visuals shine thanks to NVIDIA’s new technology on this system. This is one of those titles that Switch 2 users will be able to enjoy without compromise.

    Mario Kart World introduces an interesting open-world mode, but it falls short in several key areas. The Grand Prix mode can be completed in just a few hours. However, the most impressive feature is Knockout Tour — a competitive Battle Royale-style mode that players can enjoy at any time. The game feels well-optimized in TV mode and handheld mode.

    The Alters is one of those games that draws you in with its genre, but keeps you hooked with its mechanics, story, and challenges. It poses the 'What if?' question in a brilliant way.

It’s an intriguing experience with room for improvement, but one that will reward players who take the time to give it a chance.

    Super Technos World: River City & Arcade Classics should learn a few things from the best game compilations out there. While it offers a decent selection of titles, not all of them feel worthy or memorable enough to be included, making the overall package feel somewhat uninspired. I’d recommend it only to retro gaming fans and those looking to revisit the golden era of 16-bit classics.

    FromSoftware proves it hadn't shown everything with Elden Ring, delivering a bold yet effective new experience in Nightreign.

    While Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon borrows heavily from The Elder Scrolls series—comparisons are inevitable—several of its gameplay systems are distinct enough to set it apart from Bethesda’s titles. Sure, it has some graphical issues, but that's fairly common in games of this kind. If we had to call it something, I’d say it's a spiritual successor with plenty of attitude.

    While Blades of Fire brings its own unique twist to the action RPG genre and manages to be entertaining, there is still room for improvement. Its main concept—weapon forging—needs a more intuitive execution, along with some gameplay adjustments.

    Deliver At All Costs aims for chaotic fun and absurd situations, with gameplay focused on delivering packages while wreaking havoc on the environment.

    DOOM: The Dark Ages reinvents the classic FPS with a medieval twist that shifts the pace without losing the franchise’s brutal essence. While its gameplay demands some adjustment and the visuals aren't particularly impressive compared to previous entries, it runs smoothly on PC and its narrative piques curiosity. It’s a bold gamble that, without breaking the legacy, deliberately strays from the traditional formula.

    Although Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 stands out for its artistic direction and dynamic turn-based combat, it doesn't fully convince me. Maybe I've become more demanding, but it feels like the game is always trying to give me the upper hand. The gameplay mechanics are already familiar and feel more like an update than an innovation. It needs some polishing in certain areas—maybe then I'll give it another chance.

    Days Gone Remastered is a great example of how some games deserve a second chance.

    Steel Seed attempts to explore multiple genres like stealth, action, and platforming, and while it presents some interesting ideas, it falls somewhere between playing it safe and sticking to the basics.

    The concept of South of Midnight may captivate those who enjoy story-driven adventures, thanks to its stop-motion-inspired art style and a narrative rooted in regional mythology with a deeper message.

    Monster Energy Supercross 25 is a solid entry that refines previous installments, yet it still has room to grow if it wants to leave a truly memorable mark on the genre.

    The Last of Us Part II Remastered for PC is an excellent option for those who still want to experience this game at its best possible quality.

    Split Fiction feels more like a 9-hour movie than a true co-op game. Interaction is limited, and the multiplayer experience is among the worst.

This game is very enjoyable, with a political plot, an impressive artistic section, new gameplay elements, particularly in combat, and so-called Archetypes. All this makes this game a memorable proposition.

    Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero is possibly the greatest fighting game ever made. It greatly outperforms the previous one with its amazing graphics, multiple game modes, speedy gameplay, and unlockable characters—over 180 in total. It's one of those games that gets better the more you play. Unquestionably, Bandai Namco and Spike Chunsoff have created the ultimate fighting game.

    Despite its charming chibi aesthetic, Echoes of Wisdom is the best version of The Legend of Zelda yet. Despite some changes in the mechanics, I think Nintendo's first adventure turned out very well. We must recognize it for what it is: a game in which we had to replace our beloved Link.

    Enotria: The Last Song is a Soulslike that breaks from usual because of the environment and narrative, which takes inspiration from Italian folklore. It offers a few difficult combats with interesting new mechanics, but it felt a little under-done. Fans of the genre will enjoy this game more for its strengths than its flaws overall because it is just another solid Soulslike.

    God of War: Ragnarök is quite a piece for its high visual quality and exceptional performance. It is not necessary to use DLSS or FSR to enjoy the game. Although playing with a mouse and keyboard can be difficult but it is a successful PlayStation port. The graphics, combined with the immersion provided by the Dualsense, make PC players feel comfortable experiencing this acclaimed franchise.

    Emio - The Smiling Man is a game from a classic series returning for Nintendo Switch. It's a linear game that focuses on exploration, investigation, and puzzle-solving, but lacks much interactivity. It constantly forces you to guess the next option, which can be frustrating. Its story based on an urban legend and its enigmatic enemy are the most striking aspects, but its low replayability makes it just another boring game.

    Throne and Liberty meets expectations by combining aspects from other games with its own special style. It's unique because we get to create a character with any class to play as we like. From level 1 to 30, the experience is excellent but the "End Game" stuff promise something good but we never know. On the other hand the learning curve can be overwhelming, but NCSoft has achieved something positive, and i hope that players will adapt to this game or we will stop hearing about it in 2 weeks.

    Final Fantasy XVI on PC comes with many improvements compared to the original version. However, this performance issue makes the experience disappointing, especially for those who do not know how to manually adjust the graphic settings. DLSS is useless because it's hard to achieve a stable 60 FPS. The original game is really good, but the experience on PC change your mind. Playing with a mouse and keyboard can be a challenge during the first few hours.

    Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is a renovation of the original game rather than just a fresh coat of paint. Of course, it's a remake that stays loyal to the plot, combat, and level design while making improvements to the graphics, controls, and camera—aspects of the game that were criticized on the 2010 version. It also has some intriguing changes that this cult game never had before.

    This is a game that refreshes our routine and is more fun with friends but can also be enjoyed alone. Although the graphics are impressive, there is room for improvement in terms of exploration and less repetitive missions. We can progress and improve our Marine to play our way. To fight boredom, a PvP mode is included that provides a unique experience but there is so much action happening that you won’t know what’s going on around you.
