    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the long-awaited sequel to Breath of the Wild and marks some pluses like changes to Link's new abilities and the large-scale open world. The game has many playable possibilities with the combination of our powers in which the sky is the limit. However, it is more of the same with a different name and the graphic section is not that great.

    Stray Blade is another game with the Souls formula that fell short. It may have interesting mechanics but they are not outstanding at all. Its world is well built on a visual level and at the same time it does not offer much to do.

    Ys IX: Monstrum Nox is a direct action RPG that offers interesting mechanics to the Ys formula. It will delight fans of the series and even lovers of the action genre. Although graphically it is not up to the current generation, it is still a good title that will give us several hours of fun.

    Live A Live is a unique JRPG that jumps to consoles with some huge improvements. 8 stories to live, 8 different gameplays although with the same bases and 8 different time settings, are the proposal of this title that was once lost in time. Those who wanted to try it and don't have a Switch can do so.

    Ravenlok is an adventure game that looks like an alternative version of Alice in Wonderland, being a very nice game aesthetically, but too simple at the same time. It hardly presents a challenge for those who play it and it has mechanics that should have been better used.

    Redfall is all about Arkane Studios and many fans will actually love it. This is an FPS with a rich lore story, action, various characters, and lots of looting. However, it feels simplified in some mechanics and very generic. The strength of the game is in the multiplayer mode where each character complements each other and becomes more fun. As for the graphics and performance, it's clear that rushing the development of the game has been part of its own failure.

    Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp is a pure strategy game that lovers of the genre will enjoy. As a remake it does very well, both with the aesthetic change and with the new additions. Things get better with the multiplayer, although in the online part they limited the matchmaking a lot. Without a doubt, a classic that comes back to life.

    This is a sequel that miserably fails to fill its predecessor's shoes. It has the best features of the original but they didn't know how to take advantage of them. The current lack of ambition in animations, scripts, graphical execution, optimization and overall satisfaction levels leave a lot to be desired. This 2023 is not the best year for the Star Wars franchise.

    Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak is a great expansion that makes the game bigger than it already is. It adds more hours of gameplay, plus new content in the form of two new regions, moves, monsters, and equipment. It is a title accessible to all players, although focused on fans of the franchise.

    Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores is a full blown expansion. It feels somewhat short for what the series usually is, but it has quality content. We have new areas, weapons, enemies and of course ways to kill them. After checking its graphics, it is understood why PS4 was not part of the equation.

    Ghostwire: Tokyo for Xbox Series X/S is a good option for those fans who couldn't enjoy it due to exclusivity. Although it has some flaws, it is an entertaining game that recreates the city of Tokyo and part of its culture very well. The addition of a new mode is already a reason to try the game.

    God of Rock comes with a lot of content and highly polished audiovisual concepts. It is an ambitious proposal that suffers from poor execution but is going to keep you entertained no matter what

    Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster is the gateway to discover the first games of the precursor of the Japanese role. They are improved versions of the classic titles, not only visually but also in gameplay. They retain all the charm of the original releases mixed with one of the most enchanting soundtracks in video games. It will make us know how the saga was before Final Fantasy 7.

    This game has everything to be the best in its genre and it does it well with an excellent narrative, graphics and impressive details. It runs a bit heavy for some players on PC. The co-op mode is one of the best features of all, though not having cross-play takes away the real fun. Slaying zombies isn't hard until you hit the streets of Hell-A and want to get out alive.

    MineCraft Legends is like playing Age of Empire but from a villager's point of view and more focused on direct action. The game combines strategy, tower defense, management and construction in a fun and layered way. Although some of the mechanics have been simplified and the game can be a bit overwhelming. However, it manages to keep the player interested by figuring out ways to improve our tools.

    Succubus could well be an interesting Hack & Slash game with decent gameplay, however, poor graphics and performance optimization will drive fans away from the genre. I may like this fighting system but the game is not helped by everything else.

    Being a gangster in the 90s was not easy, but this "simulator" makes it clear to me that a group of good actors does not look good when the narrative is not well done. Crime Boss: Rockay City is an ambitious but uncreative game in some ways. You can have a good time alone or in coop mode, although the theme isn't bad at all.

    Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom Prince's Edition is the best version you can find of the game from developer Level-5. His charming story of how to overcome adversity and have determination. The most affordable battle system, all the released DLC content and the best graphics are included in this version.

    GrimGrimoire OnceMore immerses us in a magical combined world of strategy and tower defense. The story is captivating because for its twists thanks to the interpretations of the actors behind the characters. The battle system can be overwhelming but we can master it with patience. It has the usual additions of the remasters that make it a more acceptable game.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure is the long-awaited sequel that ends the story of the series in the city of Crossbell and does so in style. Although the game maintains many of its bases compared to its predecessor, it is an interesting game that improves and expands on some aspects. Fans of the series will love it because it is one of those lost gems that was able to transcend borders.

    Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key follows in the footsteps of its predecessors with some interesting new features. The game is set after the events of the second game. Combat remains just as dynamic and even more so with new key crafting options. This one is much more open and dynamic.

    Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon is a great spin-off with a different gameplay from the original. Being able to manage our hero simultaneously and overcome challenges is just as successful as eliminating demons with our hair. Its story that tells us the origins of Bayonetta, not to mention its attractive artistic section worthy of a Tim Burton work.

    This is a game with an interesting system that mixes third-person shooters with a Soulslike experience. Its procedural and weapon generation system makes it a very replayable and fun game. Graphically, the game on Switch looks good but it has long screen load times.

    Clash: Artifacts Of Chaos is a game that shows another side of the Clash series created by ACE Team. Instead of being in first person, it shows a behind-the-shoulder camera switch with various fighting styles to master. The game needs to polish the game mechanics because it is usually very repetitive. Artistically it's a beautiful game. Recommended for those who want something different.

    Capcom does it again. Resident Evil 4 is the best example of how to reimagine a game that has been with us for a long time. This Remake makes the gameplay feel fresh, intuitive and fun. On a visual level, it is the best work ever created with the RE Engine and other games of this generation. Best of all, once you finish the game the fun continues.

    Visual Concepts has been able to make one of the best WWE games to this date. WWE 2K23 has the chemistry players have been waiting for a long time thanks to its amazing graphics and great optimization. On PS5 it runs pretty well but they could have done a better job with the DualSense compatibility, the soundtrack could have been much better. This does not take away all the good work done in the game. John Cena is the gold card along with WarGames which is the icing on the cake.

    Paranormasight: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo is a very different and disturbing proposal for lovers of the graphic novel genre. On many occasions we will not know what to do and we will constantly be testing what can work to advance the plot. The game is not dubbed into Spanish, this may be a problem for some. Your dose of scary moments is going to happen.

    Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is a good horror and survival game that many of us missed out on because we didn't have it in our region. Facing the enemies is still fun and oppressive, the game is very close to the formula already seen in Maiden of Black Water but more evolved. The essence of the original game is a huge problem.

    Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is yet another addition to the Souls family. Like its combat, the story goes very fast, your character doesn't express himself and the performance on PC is bad. The graphic level is amazing mixed with the implemented game mechanics make this a good experience considering that you are going to die over and over again.

    Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe is much more than a remaster, it's a full-fledged remake because it offers new graphics and enough content to return to Dreamland. It is a fun game but too easy at the same time. The greatest thing is when you enjoy it with friends.
