Pragmata is Capcom's new IP that has impressed us with next-generation graphics and a science fiction story that is as cryptic as it is intriguing, centered around AI. It's one of those titles that grabs you from the very beginning and you can't stop playing.- HardZone

A heartfelt return for Max and Chloe that leans on strong storytelling and an outstanding soundtrack, even if its gameplay remains familiar. Not revolutionary, but a solid and emotional entry that fans of the series will truly appreciate.- HardZone

A solid collection that brings back one of the most unique Mega Man sub-series, with enough improvements and content to justify its return, though overshadowed by the lack of Spanish language support.- HardZone

Screamer (2026) reimagines the classic arcade racer with a bold anime-inspired identity and a unique twin-stick driving system enhanced by the ECHO mechanics, delivering fast, stylish, and surprisingly strategic races. While its accessible gameplay, strong audiovisual direction, and fresh combat elements stand out, the narrative remains secondary and the overall depth feels limited for its premium price. It’s a distinctive and entertaining arcade experience, but one that may not fully justify its cost for all players.- HardZone

Crisol: Theater of Idols is a striking Spanish horror game that blends BioShock-inspired design with religious symbolism and Andalusian folklore, delivering a tense and oppressive atmosphere from start to finish. Its bold blood-as-ammo mechanic and strong artistic direction make it a memorable, if demanding, narrative-driven experience at a surprisingly accessible price.- HardZone

Nioh 3 successfully evolves the series by blending its hardcore souls-like roots with improved accessibility and a visually stunning combat system. While the time-traveling narrative and semi-open world can feel repetitive, the depth of customization and fluid mechanics make it the most refined entry to date.- HardZone

With its strategic turn-based battles, expanded exploration, and a new story set in a world on the brink of collapse, Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection pushes the spin-off series to a new scale. It’s a colorful JRPG adventure where bonding with monsters is just as important as defeating them.- HardZone

Crimson Desert is an ambitious open-world RPG that successfully blends fast-paced combat, deep gameplay systems, and a vast, living world into one cohesive experience. Despite a sometimes confusing narrative and a few frustrating encounters, its depth, technical performance, and sheer amount of content make it one of the most impressive releases of the year, and a strong contender for Game of the Year.- HardZone
