    Total Chaos brings enough to the table to be worth trying, despite minor issues that may affect your enjoyment depending on how much they matter to you. For the most part, though, it’s a challenging survival horror experience that’s well-designed and consistently focused on building fear and tension.

    A.I.L.A. is a fantastic looking game that makes a great first impression. However, spending a few hours with it is enough to expose some of its flaws, including strange puzzles and a lack of coherence between the storytelling and its many different horror experiences.

    A charming jankiness welcomes those who enjoyed cult classics like Gothic, but this open-world fantasy action RPG offers little else.

    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.

    Rennsport is a pro-focused racer that shows promise but falls short of Gran Turismo’s heights, remaining enjoyable yet held back by notable caveats.

    You would think that a Telltale-style episodic adventure game wouldn't take off in this day and age, but Dispatch will prove you wrong (and offer an incredibly endearing story to boot).

    The worst campaign in Call of Duty history awaits, but even as an overall package, Activision's latest feels woefully by-the-numbers.

    Lumines gets the Tetris Effect treatment, and it's incredible. Is anyone really surprised? Don't worry - the gameplay is enough to sustain you through the trippy synesthesia and then some.

    Sacred 2: Remastered doesn’t do enough to make revisiting the original on current-gen consoles worthwhile.

    Anno 117: Pax Romana is a fantastic new entry in a relatively niche genre that offers more accessible gameplay without sacrificing the depth that the city-building genre is known (and loved) for.

    A product of its time, revamped for the present, Syberia Remastered offers a sleeker look at the start of Kate Walker's adventures but loses a bit of the original's magic in the process.

    Bandai Namco's effort to bring back a classic does just about enough to preserve the original experience's magic while making it more fun for new and returning players.

    There's a lot to love about Wreckreation but its issues, both major and minor, hold it back from being a brilliant sandbox that has you spending hours of unadulterated fun on its streets.

    A dull reboot of a legendary franchise, Double Dragon Revive mixes tedium with wonky movement, boring stages and annoying bosses for an ultimately unfulfilling experience.
