Phantom Liberty is a fantastic expansion, with a great story, memorable characters, and quality side content, but the real reason you won't want to stop coming back to Night City is the 2.0 update.

Even though performance problems were very annoying, we had a good time returning to the world of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet with The teal mask. It's a good expansion; maybe not great, but it's fun and leave us with the promise that the best is yet to come.

Even with questionable aspects such as the premium currency, The Crew Motorfest has tons of style and quality flashes, with a solid proposal that can connect with the most eclectic speed lovers (one race you are in the mud, the next on F1). Too bad that aspects such as the improvable multiplayer, or the "always online", affect the final result.

MythForce is an entertaining action and role-playing roguelite, which stands out for its 80's cartoon aesthetics and for being very oriented to 4 player coop. It has many "evils" of the subgenre (random level generation, repetition...), but if you're going to play it with friends, you'll have a great time. In solitaire, maybe not so much.

The guys at Netherrealm don't take too many risks here, but they have crafted a brutal game in any way, with a well designed fight mechanics and really, really fun to play.

Although at times it is too derivative, we had a great time with Lies of P. It is so well made in all aspects and the changes it introduces are so well thought out (despite not being groundbreaking), that we would have to lie not to recommend it.

It improves the previous game in some aspects, but it is not free from a certain imbalance and chaos. Even so, it is a fun proposal with a lot of multiplayer potential.

It manages to make you feel happy and relaxed with just the right dose of adventures. It's not for hardcore players, of course, but you'll appreciate it if you just want to escape to a more colorful reality.

It lacks some polish on the technical side, but if you love exploration and aren't afraid of one big "water level", Under the Waves is like a treasure hidden in the deep.

PS5 receives a superb port of Baldur's Gate 3, which has not sacrificed any content and technical cuts are negligible, unless you've played it before on a high-end PC. Maybe, the major complaint is that you can only play it with the controller, as mouse and keyboard support has been removed on PS5, as opposed to other games' ports.

Samba de Amigo: Party Central is a game that we will always keep close, either to work up a sweat or to have fun at parties. It's so fun and the song selection is so good, that you almost forget about the issues with motion controls.

The best Bethesda Game Studios has conceived a huge, colossal and exciting game, where each adventure can be different. It's not perfect, but it's certainly one of the games of the year.

Possibly the best Dragon Ball Z Kakarot DLC, simply due to the incorporation of a new and most interesting combat system, revitalizing the gaming experience. Also, recovering a lost saga like that of the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai is to be praised. A pity the cutting of some scenes and not being able to handle certain characters.

Kudos to EA for mentoring a game that brings new and effective ideas to the FPS formula. Immortals is a big, dynamic and appealing shooter, even with some derivative aspects in its aesthetics and design.

A dream for any fan of mechs, with great visuals and spectacular fights. But the steep difficulty when challenging bosses might put off some players, specially those who aren't familiar with the Souls formula.

Blasphemous 2 surpasses its predecessor in everything, thus becoming a new jewel of Spanish development and one of the best metroidvanias of recent years. It is an authentic work of art that we never tire of contemplating, listening to and -above all- playing. Praise the Miracle and praise The Game Kitchen.

It's a shame that the port shows so little effort, because the original game is still a masterpiece. Even with the flaws of the port, you should definitively play it.

In short, without many fireworks, The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood continues to uphold the spirit of companies with a lot of heart like Deconstructeam: that of making us think differently.

The core gameplay is good and we love the atmosphere, but the lack of content and some technical hiccups are a burden for the experience.

Atlas Fallen does not invent the wheel, but it has a good level in almost all its sections, and bets on a charismatic fictional universe (with potential for a sequel). If you like hack and slash, action-RPGs or the rarities of the PS3 and Xbox 360 generation, here is one of the surprises of the year.

Baldur's Gate 3 is an outstanding role-playing game, both in terms of its gameplay and its technical aspects (still with areas to be polished via patch), one that, moreover, is destined to become one of the benchmarks of the genre for taking some ideas, such as the election system and its reactive world, to a level that others have not even dreamed of.

As a remaster, it's a 10/10 for Nightdive, a team that has delivered a great package. The game itself suffers from severely uneven difficulty and a excessively wacky level design, but ROTT shows an undeniable charm as a 90s over the top shooter.

A fun and explosive action game that it's even more spectacular on PC (and that you can play reasonably well on Steam Deck and ROG ALLY). With it, Nixxes saves the day and delivers a third quality port in a row, which looks spectacular with the latest GPUs, although it still needs a few patches to be polished and perfected.

Probably, the best iteration of the franchise since the original game. Some minor pace problems don't ruin a nostalgic, fun and varied experience.

Disney Illusion Island is an entertaining platformer with metroidvania vibes that will entertain both children and adults with its cooperative mode for four players. Visually it's a joy, almost like an animated TV series, but unfortunately it is very easy and short, and despite its abundant collectibles, it is not particularly replayable.

Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara is an opportunity to revisit the world of Summer in Mara, now as a 3D platform game with a very Nintendo flavour, not very innovative, but fun and with a control system, previously seen in Mail Mole, designed with speedruns in mind. You'll enjoy it more if you played Summer in Mara.

Few open worlds offer an experience as unique and different as Tchia, a game with a personality as overwhelming as its own world or the mechanics it proposes. Even with its flaws and technical aspects that can be improved, it is a game that deserves a chance, unless you are not into open world games.

Although the first Pikmin seem too surly in their gameplay, this experience is much more pleasant without "insulting" our gaming capacity. In addition, it is much more beautiful and enormously varied. It has it all, explorers.
