    Infinity Nikki
    Infinity Nikki is a cozy exploration game with solid dress-up mechanics and appealing visuals, despite its iffy console performance and annoying gacha system.

    NHL 23
    New animations help NHL 23 make steps toward greater authenticity but the series still needs a major overhaul.

    Deliver Us The Moon
    Deliver Us the Moon is a solid game, but this sloppy current-gen upgrade is probably not the best way to experience it.

    GigaBash
    While GigaBash's core gameplay systems of brawling are solid, everything surrounding that experience - the online component, content offerings, roster - are underwhelming when compared to contemporaries.

    Tales of Berseria Remastered
    Tales of Berseria Remastered makes this harrowing adventure much easier to experience, but it still doesn’t do enough to fix the issues that plagued the original release.

    Outriders Worldslayer
    Outriders: Worldslayer continues the base game’s trends in every single way possible. Its story is bad, the antagonist is boring, and the zones feel wasted, but none of that matters because Outriders: Worldslayer still has some of the most interesting gameplay systems of any loot game. And most importantly, it’s still a lot of fun.

    Ys X: Nordics
    Ys 10: Nordics isn't a bad game and offers plenty of action RPG fun for newcomers and veterans. However, some design elements feel off, leveling off what should be the series' next ascent to greatness.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Freedom Wars Remastered
    Freedom Wars Remastered is the 2014 classic through and through, with some bells and whistles. Just don't expect any massive overhauls or new content.
    • 73 Metascore

    NASCAR 25
    NASCAR 25 is a solid racing game but doesn't do enough as a racing simulator to make it stand out. If you like an authentic, challenging on-track experience, this one is easy to recommend. However, anybody other than a NASCAR enthusiast isn't likely to derive enough value from the game to justify picking it up at launch.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
    Call of Duty Black Ops 6 doesn't reinvent the wheel nor does it rise to the genre's greatest heights.

    Scarlet Nexus
    Scarlet Nexus lives and dies by its combat, which is a good thing, because the combat is great. It's fast, frantic, consistently enjoyable, grows progressively more complex, and feels surprisingly strategic on a very fundamental level. But in most other ways, the game fails to live up to its potential, most notably in how it fails to do justice to a good setting and solid world-building with uninteresting characters, a mindless narrative, and deeply flawed storytelling.

    Destiny 2: Lightfall
    While it can feel more like a proof of concept for some new mechanics than a vital piece of the experience, Lightfall is another reason to come back to Destiny 2, which proves it’s still a top-tier shooter more than half a decade into its life.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Escape from Tarkov
    Escape From Tarkov might have been one of the first major extraction shooters, but the genre as a whole still has a lot to learn from its core gameplay and how it builds up tension.

    Possessor(s)
    Initially full of potential, Heart Machine's latest eventually runs out of gas when it's not stumbling off some awkward combat issues.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Dustborn
    Haphazard at times and calmly cacophonic at others - Dustborn has much going on, and it's far from harmonious. Nevertheless, the characters and intriguing setting help sustain interest.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Shadow Warrior 3
    Shadow Warrior 3 strips away much of the extra fluff from its predecessor for a short, straightforward thrill ride packed with violence. Its humor doesn't always land and the narrative can be slipshod but the gameplay is very fun and backed by solid level design. Just don't be too surprised at the overall campaign length.

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising
    Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising fulfills its purpose, providing a solid if very straightforward experience that may or not make you averse to stamps when it’s all over.
    • 82 Metascore

    Crashlands 2
    Colorful and boisterous, Butterscotch Shenanigans' sequel doesn't stray too far from the original, even if it could have offered more.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Deceive Inc.
    If you’re looking for an engaging multiplayer spy game, Deceive Inc. is hiding in plain sight. It has some issues that mar an otherwise solid experience, but it’s difficult to fault it for those since it will only run you $20.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Twin Mirror
    Twin Mirror’s inconsistent presentation and short length contaminate its otherwise excellent story-telling and solid detective gameplay to a degree, but thankfully, it still manages to land on its feet as a respectable narrative-focused adventure.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Arknights: Endfield
    Hypergryph's action RPG foray falls short in several places, but the unorthodox systems, exploration and visuals make it worth a try.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Monster Jam Steel Titans 2
    Monster Jam: Steel Titans 2 is at its best when it embraces the arcadeyness, depth, and lightheartedness that define its most exciting moments, though it sometimes punishes the very ambition behind those aspects.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Deathverse: Let It Die
    Deathverse: Let It Die has some interesting things going for it, but it ends up sorely lacking in other elements.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Star Wars: Hunters
    Star Wars Hunters is a surprisingly fun hero shooter wrapped around a somewhat aggressive live-service model.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope
    Little Hope makes the direction of The Dark Pictures anthology clear, but it makes up for its evident formula with an interestingly convoluted story and increasingly nuanced branching paths.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    NTE: Neverness to Everness
    NTE: Neverness to Everness won't set the free-to-play world on fire, but it's still a surprisingly strong debut effort with a solid foundation.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Dakar Desert Rally
    Dakar Desert Rally combines a lot of modern features that great racing games need, but occasionally gets in its own way with technical issues.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Wuthering Waves
    Wuthering Waves won't unseat Genshin Impact in the open-world action RPG department, but it's still very solid out of the gate and worth keeping an eye on in the coming years.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Still Wakes the Deep
    Still Wakes the Deep doesn't fully realize the horrific potential of its intriguing setting, and some might find it to be a bit too light on gameplay, but thanks to an engaging story and gorgeous visuals, it's still a game worth playing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Scorn
    Scorn is an interesting game to play. Lacking any real story to follow, it instead relies on your own curiosity to see it through. You’ll be interacting with all sorts of disgusting things, and fighting off horrifying creatures, and if you’re the kind of person who can not only stomach the aesthetic, but actually enjoy it, Scorn will undoubtedly be a wonderful experience. For just about everyone else, though, maybe look at a couple of screenshots and trailers and see if you can stomach the aesthetic first.
