On top of being a great game, with satisfying shooting mechanics and a universe that goes well beyond the main story, the next-gen version of Control Ultimate Edition is a visual showcase. It's a shame that early adopters of the original game can't benefit from this upgrade.

Not the best entry in the first season of The Dark Pictures Anthology, but a sure bet for anyone who wants to enjoy a direct, sincere slasher experience.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land may not be the revolution some were expecting, but it is still a great platform game. We love the new transformations, setting, and lots of extras and minigames.

The best collection from Konami, head to head with the Castlevania one... Shooting to the chiptune rock rhythms brings out our youth emotions, while the action keep being hypnotic, magic... like 30 years ago. We only miss some titles in the collection and hope that M2 fix the frame rate on the coin op. The rest, it's still wonderful.

Atelier Sophie 2 is an entertaining RPG, with enhanced visuals, joyful story and new gameplay additions and tweaks, that makes this new entry one of the most entertaining in Gust's atelier series. And that's no little achievement for a 25th anniversary, even if it arrives without Spanish translation and some tasks are a little bit chore.

With Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, Sonic Team delivers its most dazzling entry yet — a game that puts fun first for players of all ages, whether casual fans or seasoned racers. A bit more content could have elevated it further, but it still manages to be highly enjoyable both solo and with friends.

WarioWare Gold it's like a "greatest hits" album, but from the craziest Nintendo IP. 316 five seconds minigames that requires speed and reflexes, and above all, sense of humor. An enjoyable crazy idea that, maybe, this time, falls short in some areas (story) and it doesn't offer multiplayer with one cart or 3D effect.

The PC version of Final Fantasy XVI is very demanding, with mid-range computers being the worst affected. But if you have a PC with high specs, this is without a doubt the best way to play Square Enix's action title.

Tachyon Project is a game that provides a lot of fun and allows us to play with three other friends on the same console. It has good ideas and flawless gameplay.

Slipstream's retro arcade proposal knows very well its roots, who it's aimed for and where it wants to take the original formula, adding just the new elements and changes needed for not being a simple OutRun clone. If you loved Sega's classic runner, you've a high chance of falling in love with it.

Even if you notice its "humble" mobile origins and it's not really very spectacular, Capcom has helmed and interesting view on the metroidvania genre, with nice ideas, a not very explored setting and a style that maybe can result repetitive, but it's fun and will hook up the genre fans. Special mention for the sound: play it with headphones.

Doom 3 is still a great horror experience, and the new HUD and controls are perfect for VR. But it´s been more than 15 years since the game was originally released, and some elements feel outdated.

Mario Sports Superstars means fun. With 5 different sports in one game, Nintendo and Camelot brings you the possibility to see Peach, Yoshi, Wario and almost every Mario character that you love in sports like Baseball, Soccer, Tennis, Golf and Horse Racing. On the other hand, Tennis and Golf seems to be very similar to the actual 3DS versions.

Citizens of Earth has a lot of great ideas that work well, such as its recruitable characters, turn-based combat system and sense of humour.

Graphics-wise this may not be the best version of Dragon's Dogma out there, but seeing the game running on the Switch (in portable mode) is a thing of beauty. So the thing is simple: if you've never played it or the idea of doing it on the go attracts you, don't hesitate and go for it.

Minecraft Legends sheds a satisfying (and new) light on one of the richest universes we can remember. It's not the best in its genre, but this colorful mix of action, tactics, strategy and MOBA will win over Minecraft fans and even those who have never tried Mojang's game.

Oxenfree II: Lost Signals keep everything that made the first one so especial, adding more freedom of exploration and changing the teenagers for adults tired of life.

Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS loses some important features the Wii U edition had, but also adds a few interesting ones. And we can still play thousands of levels based on the best Mario 2D games ever, now in portable.

It's the less terrifying game in the series, but it keeps you on your toes constantly. Its focus on camarederie and cooperating to survive works really well. Anyway, if you didn't like the previous entries, this one won't probably appeal you either.

Cities Skylines arrives on PS4 to delight fans of urban management and construction games with an edition that includes the DLC After Dark. Despite being a notable edition, it does not reach the mark because it does not include the rest of the expansions and does not allow to manage some aspects.

As the song in the film, "everything's not awesome" with this one (camera, screen tearing...), but it still delivers a ton of content and a solid promise of fun if you plan to play it with a kid, In some ways, it's a more open-world-focused offering than other LEGO licensed games, that brings back some ideas lost in LEGO Worlds.

Level-5 brings the classic 3DS game back, with upgraded visuals and a great control adaptation for both TV and portable Switch modes. It offers plenty of puzzles and minigames, though some of them are confusing.

Super Meat Boy feels at home on Nintendo Switch. It's the very same 2D platformer that made us sweat on 360, PS4, Vita and Wii U, that has jumped to Switch retaining its tight controls and huge amount of levels and secrets. A modern classic that every lover of the platform genre should play.

Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning comes to Nintendo Switch with a great conversion that maintains the type regardless of how we play, becoming an ideal option to meet or rediscover this fantasy action RPG.

We're back to the old cooperative mode of busting zombies like there is no tomorrow with Back 4 Blood, the heir to Left 4 Dead that keeps the essence of the franchise alive and incorporates new mechanics, but with lessons to be learned in the field of PvP.

Tactics Ogre Reborn is by its own merits one of the great SRPGs that we can now enjoy in the best way thanks to its new gameplay and graphics. However, we miss a greater courage on the part of Square Enix with this revision of the 2010 remake. If you already played it years ago, there are no great incentives to repeat.

Now, this game isn't for everyone, and it's not perfect. As I mentioned before, even after exploring it thoroughly, I'm still not entirely sure what this game is. But isn't that great? It might not be as massive a "hit" as the titles I've been mentioning, but Kirby Air Riders is a unique and personal offering, an absolute creative indulgence that will make you appreciate those quirky games we see less and less of in this industry.

It's not the best remaster out there (although it is the definitive version... on consoles), but Dragon's Dogma is still as fresh as it was in 2012. If you didn't play it then, this is the perfect time to discover one of the best action RPGs of all time.

Miles Morales works great as a launch title for PS5, it keeps most virtues from the previous game, and adds "next gen" effects, but it´s not as big and ambitious as the original.

If you enjoy playing with friends and family and having some laughs, Mario Party 10 is one of the best options on the Wii U.

Mixing things so different might seem like a bad idea, but Yurukill made us believe that a bullet hell and a visual novel are a match made in heaven. It's also a fantastic game on both sides, meaning we have a great visual novel and a great shoot 'em up, all in the same package.

Astro's Playroom it's the best possible way to try your brand new PS5. It's not just a great tutorial to try all DualSense's new tibdits, it's the best possible homage to the PlayStation brand's 25 years of videogaming history, full of references here and there. And it's free. What a pity that it ends very soon.

Pocket Dungeon is a little and wonderful surprise, a puzzle game that finds its own way mixing itself with elements from dungeon games. It's easy to play, harder to master. For some, the worst part will be the roguelike nature of its challenge, something that won't conquer everyone.

Dirt 5 it's a fun and entertaining arcade racer that had born between two generations and, while we're waiting to see the PS5 & Xbox Series X version, that's something that you can feel. It's fun, made for everyone and with a ton of content, but there are problems with textures, mantaining the 60 fps in performance mode and long loading times.

It's not the most complex strategy game out there, but it will appeal to the Dragon Ball set for sure. SDBHWM offers an amazing quantity of characters, references and attacks from the Dragon Ball universe. Fan service made right.

Killing Floor 2 is an accessible and fun FPS, enjoyable in co-op mode, but too simple in offline mode.

It looks like Diablo, it plays like God of War, what Darksiders do we have? An original and enjoyable one, with some attractive ideas that now arrive to consoles with a good port, event if it has with some problems (on Switch runs at 30 fps, some problems loading textures...). Regardless, it's an enjoyable hack'n slash playing alone or coop.

It's an OK fighting game, but fans will love the amount of references and new ways to enjoy Dragon Ball that it offers. The camera and some tech issues are there, but it has some spectacular battles too.

Effie is, without any doubt, one of the best games that has come out of the PlayStation Talents initiative. A full-fledged adventure, with platform, action and puzzles that, apart from being fun and entertaining, has a unique visual style that sets it apart from the rest. Pity that the camera and the control in the combat is not a better film.

Need for Speed Payback is an epic racing game thanks to his cinematographic style. Fans of the franchise will be very satisfied with all the content that awaits in the game.

Soulstorm is a conservative sequel that improves on every aspect of previous Oddworld games. It brings back the 2.5D platforming and puzzle solving levels, with better controls and an impressive artistic design.

Afterimage is a game with many and varied virtues: aesthetically it is beautiful, its combat is addictive, the soulslike mechanics and difficult bosses are truly challenging... but at the same time, it doesn't do anything particularly innovative or surprising, diluting a bit all the good things it does.

Dontnod Entertainment delivers a great adventure based on the same elements we loved in Life is Strange or Tell Me Why; a good story, full of complex characters and adult themes. The main addition to the formula, The mind palace, works great for mystery solving.

Do Not Feed the Monkeys is one of the most original proposals of the video game industry in recent years. His concept is different and fun from beginning to end.

An entertaining roguelite that will start to hook you up with the original "Tetris" mechanic, and then with its great soulslike vibes, the beautiful pixel art and all the runs you'll have to conquer to uncover all the secrets and lore. If you love the genre you probably love it, even if it needs a little bit more polish on controls and bugs.

The Nintendo Switch version of Hyper Light Drifter is far from perfect, but that doesn't make its world less beautiful or the combat lees vibrant. Due to the mysterious storytelling and difficult challenges. It's not a game for everyone, making it one of those "either you love it or hate it"... And we definitely belong in the first group.

Baten Kaitos I & II HD Remaster is a great opportunity to discover, or replay, two role-playing gems from the GameCube era. Although the visual improvement is evident, Bandai Namco could have done more, as translating Baten Kaitos Origins or polishing the technical hiccups. Even with that, both are great adventures, with a great combat system.

A lot of people probably won't like the gameplay, but the visual impact is so strong that it's difficult not to recommend Scorn. It's so disturbing you'll want to look away, and so breathtaking that you won't be able to stop looking. It's the playable nightmare of a macabre mind.

Pac-Man World Re-Pac 2 revives the classic from the PS2 era and updates it with major improvements. Its visuals can’t fully hide the fact that the original is over 20 years old, and the controls could be tighter, but it more than makes up for it with excellent gameplay, a challenging progression, and a great sense of humor.

It may not be the flashiest game for a console launch, but Bravely Default remains a JRPG gem, and being able to play it on a modern system with welcome improvements is reason enough to (re)discover the story of the Warriors of Light.

With Fire Emblem Engage, Nintendo Switch hosts one of the best SRPGs on the market in terms of combat. However, we see this game as a missed opportunity to present a rounded classic title due to its storyline. The shadow of Three Houses has played against this game, despite the fact that seeing Marth is always a reason to rejoice.

Story of Seasons Pioneers of Olive Town is a game that, despite not being round and presenting some questionable design decisions, as a whole manages to present a relaxing proposal, full of enjoyable hours of play and with enough capacity to position itself as a notable title within the genre of simulators.

Huntdowns is a brilliant retro shooter, fast and defying, full of 80´s references and Easter eggs. Local coop makes the game even better.

Mind Control Delete is a unique puzzle game. It adds new levels, powerful enemies and sticks to the original gameplay.

Aggelos it's a time travel, an adventure in the vein of those that we enjoyed in the 16-bit era, An oversaturated genre even in Switch (pixel art, platforming and 2D metroidvania action) with a style of gameplay adapted to modern tastes. It's not an innovative title, but it's fun, pretty and its right pace helps to get hooked till the end.

A truly original game that fans of graphic adventures, investigation and social discourse will love. Watch out: like watching the "cages", once you start playing it's difficult to stop.

Crisis Core -Final Fantasy VII- Reunion is more than a remaster, yes, but just in some ways. In many others, it's still the same PSP game... for better and for worse. Nevertheless, this is the best version to discover Zack's story... or to reunite with an old friend.

EA Sports UFC 2 is a good combat game and a great UFC title, although is a little bit slower than the real Ultimate Fighting Championship. This second EA game has interesting modes, like Ultimate Team, a large roster of fighters, and a great 'punch' to reach the Olympus of UFC.

In Metroid Prime 4: Beyond lies a great game, buried beneath a layer of highly questionable decisions. Like Samus herself, you’ll have to scan every stone to find it.

Three fantastic games -one that feels a little old, one that still in good shape and another that is the same masterpiece- together in a somewhat lackluster compilation.

The Hong Kong Massacre is an intense and gratifying experience that Hotline Miami's fans and lovers will enjoy the most. It has its flaws (low-res videos, difficulty peaks at some points, gameplay repetition...) that draw it from being a must, but VRESKI's first game delivers with strong visuals, rhythm and challenge.

The fact that Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles is back is already great news, especially in terms of preservation, but thanks to the work of Aspyr what we have in our hands is the definitive version of the Jedi action game. And it may have aged poorly, but if you enjoyed it back in the day, you'll enjoy it just as much today.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective gets a slightly poor remaster on Switch, PS4, Xbox and PC, but more than enough to rediscover a forgotten gem from the creator of Ace Attorney. The way it presents its puzzles are one of a king, and the story is gripping and unforgettable. Long live Sissel!

Kirby is an enchanting, colorful and well designed platform game, which is even better in four-player local co-op. Sadly, the game (which feels like a direct sequel to Kirby´s Adventure for Wii) is too easy and short.

Captain Toad returns with his first adventure starring alone for Wii U with a version for 3DS that, although graphically suffering remarkably, proves that it's still a fantastic platform and puzzle proposal.

A great platforming game, now on PS4 and PS Vita. Incredibility hard to master and absolutely fun to play, Super Meat Boy is really fun.

Hitman 3 is a good entry in the series. It deliver beautiful levels, such as Dartmoor or Chonqing, new assassination tools and it allows players to import maps from the previous games (with improved graphics), buy still, its mechanics and some AI elements feel outdated.

Through a world of monsters and fantasy, Sea of Solitude tells a story about real problems that never get enough attention, especially in video games. It's like looking into the soul of another person.

Elden Ring Nightreign may be the hardest game FromSoftware has ever made, but not because of its massive bosses or all the mechanics you need to understand to beat the games, but because to enjoy it properly you need to have friends; friends who are crazy about Souls.

The Climb 2's new ideas and gameplay mechanics make it more varied and attractive, but without going too far from the first game's proposal. It's still a very enjoyable climbing arcade game, with options, unlockables, rankings and achievements that will hook you up for a good amount of time.

Leaving out the shortcomings of the original game, Tequila Works has made a good work bringing this title to the next-gen. His atmosphere, mystery, platforms, new mode and improve controls make the game addictive.

Sea of Solitude lands on Nintendo Switch with a superb port that makes little changes on the screenplay and dubbing and adds new options, making it the "definitive version" of a personal view to real world problems that videogames doesn't show often. If you love videogames with a message, don't sleep about this one.

Endless Ocean Luminous is not a game for everyone. The absence of action or challenge for the player, together with a calm pace of play, may not please all palates. But if you connect with its proposal, as it has happened to me, you will discover a unique game of its kind, with more than what it shows at first. And catch the beast.

It's easy: if you like skate games like Tony Hawk's or Jet Set Radio and shooter games with clever mechanics and lots of spectacle, Rollerdrome it's the explosive combination you didn't know you needed.

Route 96 is an adventure that will delight those who put storytelling before gameplay. Good dialogue and situations, varied, with many minigames ... It is replayable and has some interesting ideas, although it often leaves the feeling of being somewhat corseted.

Atlus's archaeological work brings back a gem from the PS2 era. Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is the definitive version of the classic — an excellent remaster that preserves everything that made the original game special. A must-play for Megami Tensei fans and anyone looking to dive into the series.

Even after three games, HAL Laboratory is still able to introduce new skills, puzzles and challenges, now with a coop campaign. A game as simple as addictive, that even if it doesn't take the formula one step ahead, and without a very well known name behind, if offers a good chunk of accessible challenges for all kind of players.

10 years after its original release, Scott Pilgrim vs The World is still a great "retro" brawler, full of pop culture references, and incredibly fun in multiplayer (local or online, coop or versus) up to 4 players.

Fe is an original platformer that fans of animals will surely love, thanks to the way it connects with nature through the language of the forest. Although it doesn't manage to send a message as powerful as it's visuals in regards to gameplay, it's worth your time just for purely artistic values.

Vanillaware remains faithful to its own style, and now surprises us with a different adventure, 2/3 visual novel, 1/3 strategic combat game, but with a flawless visual style, a solid sci-fi plot and strategic combats with a nice touch. Maybe 13 Sentinels is not for everybody, but if you have a taste for different dishes, you will love it.

A fantastic platforming game with Nintendo's seal of quality that is now even more fun thanks to the minigames and the new epilogue. The launch price is a bit steep though, so you might want to wait a little before "swallowing it".

FIFA 21 has gained some muscles with this version for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, although the play style is the same we already saw in PS4 and Xbox One. EA Sports has not taken all the profit from the new hardware, but it is great that you can upgrade for free if you have the version for the previous generation.

Even if it doesn't revolutionize the metroidvania formula, Infernax leaves a wonderful sensation. It doesn't invent nothing new, but the elements it adds (decisions, NPC missions, RPG touches...) makes it a little and joyful surprise among the myriad metroidvanias out there. And it makes full of humor and high replay value.

Far Cry: New Dawn has some nice new ideas that set it apart from it's predecessor, but ultimately they can't hide that their similarities. But rest assured: if you're looking to have fun shooting, knifing and making things explode, this game will not disappoint you.

A notorious leap in the franchise, although it can't help becoming reiterative and confusing. Even so, the huge scope of the game and the spectacularity of the giant characters are a real candy for One Piece fans.

Quotation forthcoming.

Quotation forthcoming.

The franchise gains interest with a sequel with a little more personality and solid mechanics, which challenges us without being frustrating.

DriveClub VR is a good beginning for PS VR, where the racing genre will be a priority. It has almost everything from the original game (handling, day-night cycle, circuits, social tone) and it’s a good adaptation to virtual reality. It is one of the most complete games you can find right now for the headset.

This remaster offers some relevant resolution improvements and an interesting 3D effect. The rest is pretty much the same as before.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood falls a step behind previous games... Which doesn't mean it's bad at all. The formula works as fine as ever, and there are some very welcome changes. You can kill Nazis with a friend, too, which means this games freaking rules.

Batman is back on its two first iterations from Rocksteady. Both game keeps being awesome in its mechanics and storytelling, but Virtuos has added new colors that made the games less darker. The games shows new textures and lighting, but its frame rate is less stable than on the original games. Anyway, worth playing if you haven't already.

The Stone of Madness feels like a nostalgic indie journey, one where you need patience and wit. It may seem a little rough some times, but the setting, characters and skill design make up for it.

It focuses more on puzzles and atmosphere, which creates a more convincing survival horror experience. If only it lasted a little longer.

NBA 2K26 offers interesting additions in terms of gameplay while further refining its audiovisual aspects. However, in terms of modes, it doesn't offer much and continues to be weighed down by the usual problems. If you avoid falling into its tedious systems and microtransactions, you'll find yourself with a good basketball game.

Saros is a sequel to Returnal in every way except name, and while it falls short in some aspects, gameplay-wise it's one of the best-designed third-person shooters out there. It's funny that they call it "bullet hell," because when you're dancing with hundreds of colorful proyectiles around you, sprinting, dashing, blocking and shooting... it's like heaven.

The Persistence is terrifying, makes great use of VR and its procedural level creation works great. We also like the local asymmetric multiplayer approach.

The nostalgic value of this collection is beyond any doubt, they are three masterpieces that today are still very funny (and with a sensational script), but this remastering has fallen short in many respects, and has technical flaws.
