    The series has sold 100 million copies and this version should add another 100 million, because everything has been done right. If you liked The Sims, you will love this new version with all its love for details. It's a real masterpiece.

    Kojima's prestigious project boasts a great technological framework, but still suffers from a lack of action and it’s one dimensional story.

    Technically clean PC port of Yakuza history with many configuration options, well suited for newcomers.

    A fantastic action adventure that leaves hardly anything to be desired, both in terms of gameplay and technology.

    Tribes: Ascend has become for me a true love-hate relationship.

    The Binding of Isaac is the reference for the rogue-like genre - even if you already know the "old" Isaac inside out.

    One of the best VR role-playing games so far, which impresses with more than just its size and manages to outperform its prequel.

    What a pleasant surprise. The Coalition was able to keep the proven and brutal gameplay feeling and still improve and develop it in a sensible way.

    • 82 Critic Score
    Very complex, slightly outdated turn based strategy game with five very long, exclusively German campaigns featuring over 1.000 different troops.

    I won't stop until I've seen every little clip and then I'll hope for another game. The concept will work two, three or even four times. Agatha Christie didn't only write one book either.

    The seemingly ageless and fun gameplay as well as the beautiful open world make up for a few gameplay blunders.

    There's currently not a better real-time campaign anywhere.

    Due to the fantastic level design Dishonored 2 is one of the best stealth games of the last 15 years. But the story has been neglected.

    The Open World is sometimes formulaic, but never loses its charm due to the gripping story and stunning graphics of the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster.

    With the addition of the Warlock and some long overdue modernisations, the DLC successfully refreshes this unrivalled classic for the second time.

    The open world of Crysis is no more and players are confined to long levels, but Crysis 2 offers more speed and more action and still more freedom than the whole Call of Duty series combined. The nanosuit much more important now and a lot easier to use.

    An atmospheric journey into premodern Japan that offers impressive visuals and intense combat, but falls short with its open world design.

    The RPG-shooter gameplay is outmoded, yet the remaster remains a timeless masterpiece for fans of epic stories.

    This game is a very intense experience, no doubt at all. It mixes fast action with slow passages and perfectly done scripts. But it could have been much better had someone with talent written the story. It’s full of logical errors and gaps the size of the Grand Canyon… and the massacre on the airport only serves to show the missing tactfulness of the developer. But it’s a brilliant game, nonetheless.

    This new version with polished graphics manages to beat the competition easily. Monkey Island is still one of the best adventures around, maybe still not a 100 percent up to date, but once you're in the Caribbean, you won't care anymore.

    It meets my long-cherished desire to see one of my favorite games in contemporary garb.

    CrossCode is a funky, charming and sometimes even too extensive action RPG with a pleasant nostalgic side.

    Arc Raiders is a technically stunning, atmospherically dense, and easily accessible extraction shooter that impresses with its excellent AI.

    It's been a long time since a first-person shooter has gripped me like Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus...An almost perfectly balanced mix of difficulty, humor and classic shooter gameplay with modern elements.

    Total War: Warhammer 3 is a brilliant conclusion to the Warhammer trilogy, just missing a little more polish in the campaign.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Improved almost everywhere, with a lot of atmosphere, but penalty system, damage system and scope still have room for further improvement.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Once again Codemasters delivers a great racing game, a worthy sequel and a sensible expansion of the game. Just the rain and snow races alone are reason enough to buy the game.
