The fourth and sixth instalments are most often cited as the highlights of the 2D series, while five was always considered a weird Japanese game with a job system that few have played. However, from today's point of view, especially after playing the great Pixel Remaster version, I can say that Final Fantasy V is perhaps the purest classic JRPG experience in the series and a collection of all the best ideas from the 2D era. If you like this series and the genre in general, don’t skip on this one. Thank me later!

If you have already played Final Fantasy VII Remake on the PlayStation, then we can hardly recommend this port, the only exception being if you are a “PC purist” that also loves a good JRPG along the way. If that is the case, you will finally have the opportunity to try this achievement of a game and see for yourself why fans of the seventh instalment of the long-running JRPG series were so thrilled with this remake a few years ago.

Even though it has a few flaws, we had a blast going through Black Myth: Wukong on PS5. The mix of gorgeous graphics, Chinese culture, adrenaline-pumping battles and cut-scenes really spiced up this souls-lite. There were hardships along the way but we don’t regret taking this journey to the west.

Square Enix takes us back to the distant past but also to many other periods with a very detailed remaster of the JRPG cult hit that was not available outside of Japan until now. For hardcore fans only.

The huge community of farmers/players gathered around this series does not need any special recommendations, suffice it to say that the game now looks better and brings a couple of new possibilities to the old tried and tested formula. Better graphics, new maps, seasons, and new farming "disciplines" will be more than enough reason to re-enter your favorite farming simulation. And if you are new to the series, the 2022. version undoubtedly represents a very good starting position thanks to tutorials that have also matured well from season to season.

Borderlands 4 delivers everything fans love - humor, loot, and action, but technical issues and a lack of innovation hold it back from becoming a true milestone for the series.

While it may struggle on modern consoles, its compelling experience makes it a must-play for fans of the genre.

If you like soulslike games and are not allergic to feathers - Wuchang is a must-play.

You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover - nor EA by its microtransactions. But if you manage to look past that, FC 26 delivers the best football experience of the modern gaming era. There’s still room for improvement, but it finally feels like we’re on the right track.

A very competent action game that puts a large focus on exploration and a satisfying science-fiction story. Great first showing from a brand new game dev team from Serbia.

Tormented Souls 2 isn’t a rip-off - it’s a rebellion. It boldly and successfully reminds us that true horror doesn’t come from endless obstacles, but from relentless tension, puzzles that demand real thought, and the unsettling feeling of being alone in the dark with something you’re not supposed to see.

With plenty of additional refinements, Gears of War Reloaded hardly feels like a game that’s nearly 20 years old - the action and co-op remain fantastic, even though the original grit has been replaced with a more colorful layer of modern graphics.

Marvel's Midnight Suns is a robust and very fun tactical RPG adventure with beautiful visuals, fantastic characters, a complex but fun combat system, excellent social gameplay and overall, despite the stale feel the game gives off, it looks and sounds fantastic.

Another Code: Recollection is a light adventure with a fantastic atmosphere and an interesting story that will immerse you into its world much better than the original games. Very easy puzzles make the challenge almost non-existent here, but due to the overall quality of the story and experience, it's hard to say much negative about this unique title.

Boltgun is a great blend of old and new and of a Dark SciFi franchise thats widely beloved. It has its flaws and minor issues concerning gun balancing and map design but it is a great game for boomer shooter lovers and Warhammer fans alike. It bathes in Emperor's light!

If it works, don't change it. However, given the price, fans have the right to expect bigger changes.
