    Blood Bowl III
    We would be hypocrites to deny ourselves the pleasure of seeing Blood Bowl back in a cleaner and more "up-to-date" version, but that is also the biggest problem with this new opus. The fact that it is Blood Bowl 3 is not obvious, as it feels like a simple remaster. Even worse, we are leaving a previous episode better balanced and with more teams than this one. Of course, the customization can bring a real pleasure and an even greater investment in our teams (if it does not gradually become only governed by the virtual currency of the game). There is no doubt that the title will become more interesting as the months go by with real patches, team additions and so on. It is still difficult to recommend Blood Bowl 3 for the moment, as it struggles to offer a sufficiently technically accomplished title.

    LEGO Horizon Adventures
    A small action game with very good handling and an art direction on a par with the original, we were nonetheless expecting a little more entertainment from this new LEGO title in the Horizon universe.

    Legend of Mana Remastered
    An UFO in the JRPG genre that is still very interesting for every curious gamer. Too bad this remaster does nothing to fix some of the problems found in the original game.

    Death Stranding 2: On The Beach
    Death Stranding 2 isn't a bad game. It's a beautiful game. But it disappoints precisely where the first one was astonishing: by levelling out the difficulty, rendering the journey anodyne, watering down what made the original game a tough, unforgettable experience. Here, Kojima seems to have given in to the temptation of comfort and past criticism, delivering a game that is more accessible but less meaningful. Far from extending his vision, On the Beach seems to mark his running out of steam.

    Monster Hunter Stories
    Only for those who haven't yet launched the second episode, or for the most die-hard fans of the license, Monster Hunter Stories boasts a polished remaster, but one that has been marked by the passage of time.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All!
    A nice tribute to the comics, but the gameplay remains too light and repetitive to keep us interested until the end.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Black Ops 7
    Call of Duty Black Ops 7 leaves a mixed impression. It moves forward, tries new things, experiments, but stumbles as soon as it attempts to surpass itself. The ideas are there, but the structure still lacks the cohesion needed to transform it all into a memorable whole. This offering remains too uneven to really take off.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Pokemon Legends: Arceus
    A brave and interesting take on the Pokémon universe, but terribly flawed technically. If you can overcome this production's shortcomings, you'll be able to answer the usual call for adventure, still here for players old and new.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Vampire: The Masquerade - Swansong
    They are far too many structural and functional issues with Swansong, but if you like this vampiric license, the story will give you the strength to face them all.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Destruction AllStars
    Some fun but no content, Destruction AllStars is typical of those games getting a precocious release, and who deserve to be played again later on. We'll see if the players give this PS5 exclusive its chance in the long term.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Road 96: Mile 0
    Road 96: Mile 0 doesn't bring much to its predecessor. We lose the innovative gameplay of the first game, and the writing lacks the incisiveness that made it great. The game relies on awkward musical sequences and a story that is too blunt to be credible. After the initial pleasure of diving back into this universe, boredom replaces nostalgia a little too quickly.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Exoprimal
    With pleasant and well-optimized gameplay, Exoprimal remains nonetheless a sluggish, repetitive and unattractive title for the less relentless.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Monster Energy Supercross 25 - The Official Video Game
    Even If Monster Energy Supercross 25 shows some good intentions, it doesn't reach the standard of a Milestone productions yet.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    As Dusk Falls
    There's a lot to love in As Dusk Falls. Everything surrounding the game is thoughtful. The multiplayer aspect is very smart, the Twitch integration is well thought, and the narrative tree is well made. Unfortunately, all these great ideas serve a story that has been told many times before, relies on clichés, and misses the mark on many of its more sensitive themes.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Gungrave G.O.R.E
    Gungrave G.O.R.E is a old-school shooter game for the best, but also for the worst.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Mario & Luigi: Brothership
    Saved by its battles, the brotherly epic somewhat usurps its quality - coming closer to a poorly conceived sequel than a chanson de gestes. Overly directed and choppy, it does no credit to a canon that has often been so much better.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dice Legacy
    Dice Legacy's gameplay sure is original, but you kind of tired quickly of intensive dice throwing. Also it lacks content to help us stick to its universe and challenges. Feels a bit like a two players boardgame played solo.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Killing Floor 3
    Killing Floor III has a satisfying enough base to give it a chance, but the game currently lacks the content to fully compete with its predecessors or the competition.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Biomutant
    A lot of bugs and crashes will spoil the experience. The game design and the storytelling with one camera shot never switching angle feels outdated and don't do any justice to the brilliant artistic vision and message hidden behind Biomutant.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III
    A Call Of Duty which tries to refresh its formula, which is not a great success for the campaign, and that recycle far too much with its multiplayer. Zombie mode saves the day, but is it enough at full price?
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Floodland
    As original in its themes than it is classic in its gameplay, Floodland is a nice game to play between two bigger AAA in this holiday season.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Lost Soul Aside
    Lost Soul Aside started with good intentions, but once you take a closer look at everything surrounding its combat mechanics, it's clear that a lot of work is still needed.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Madden NFL 25
    Thanks to its on-field gameplay, Madden NFL 25 is a solid American football game, but one that tends to rest on its laurels rather than make the great renewal it deserves, and is sorely lacking in ambition and innovation, even suffering in comparison with its clone, College Football 25.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Lord of the Rings - Gollum
    The gameplay of Gollum, without great energy and suffering from a quickly palpable repetitiveness is balanced with the exploration of Tolkien"s lore, as well as with the duality of our character, central in the progression.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Ascent
    Definitively the kind of game you'll use to show of the power of your high end PC or Next Gen console : the visuals are amazing. But the gameplay or the story don't offer anything of note. The Ascent is Kinda fun for a while, but quickly repetitive and is obviously lacking depth.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dordogne
    It is better to know what to expect so as not to be disappointed: Dordogne is a pretty narrative story, which we would have liked a little more open. And the lovely art direction doesn't work for everything.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The Last Case of Benedict Fox
    An honest game which does not think itself more beautiful than it really is, but which could undoubtedly have rubbed shoulders with the masters of the genre by deepening its best ideas a little more.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Narita Boy
    No pixel revolution in this platformer that shines through its retro-cyberpunk vibes but not through its gameplay or narration.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Cardaclysm
    This RPG/Card game hybrid is interesting for a few hours but the need to farm to face an unbalanced difficulty makes it a bit of a lackluster.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Redfall
    Redfall tries to be a lot of things but only finds success in little area. Coop is fun enough to be oblivious to its numerous flaws and weird design decision, but that does not mean they're not here.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Valkyrie Elysium
    An episode without ambition or soul, carried at arm's length by a pleasant gameplay and a sublime ost.

    Fighting Force Collection
    Replaying Fighting Force today feels like stumbling upon an old childhood toy. You can clearly see it’s a little broken, a little cheap… but it’s still oddly endearing.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Fort Solis
    Fort Solis is a walking simulator that feels more like a forced walk.

    Mario Golf: Super Rush
    With too many shortcomings and technically out of it, Mario Golf Super Rush doesn't even shine through it's main feature. Big disappointment, it's a double bogey.

    Shadow Warrior 3
    The new sleepy adventures of Lo Wang in Shadow Warrior are played mechanically without much excitation. Where's the fun ?
    • 69 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Outcast: A New Beginning
    Technically, artistically and script-wise, we've seen much better elsewhere. All the same, Outcast: A New Beginning is not unpleasant to play.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Disney Illusion Island
    Even considering it is intended for the casual public, Disney Illusion Island does not manage to be sufficiently convincing.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Midnight Murder Club
    Midnight Murder Club has a solid basis, but the content is not enough at this time.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Let It Die: Inferno
    While Let It Die Inferno intrigues with its ideas and universe, it fails to play to its strengths to keep us engaged over the long term. Best enjoyed in small doses, thanks to its low price, but not at high intensity as extraction games generally require.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Harvestella
    Average everywhere, but good nowhere, the new license from Square Enix struggles to convince.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World
    Asha in the Monster World feels like an opportunistic remake. The unambitious graphic update has a hard time breathing a new life to a dated game design, and it’s tough to enjoy the whole thing in 2021.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Madden NFL 22
    Improvements and additions are scarce with Madden 22, it all makes it for an average game unworthy of next gen consoles.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Ereban: Shadow Legacy
    Ereban: Shadow Legacy suffers from too many flaws to be considered a indie nugget... but we still want to see more from that studio in the future.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Empyreal
    Empyreal misses its target due to a lack of tuning and a its bad ergonomy. There are better choices in the Souls-like world.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    South Park: Snow Day!
    Uninspired and lacking in any real risk-taking, South Park Snow Day is an expensive game riding its license to please fans without really doing anything more.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Forever Skies
    Pleasant to play, Forever Skies is frustratingly short on story, which doesn't quite fit in with the basic upgrade mechanics. The repetitive nature of the locations to explore doesn't help either.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Forspoken
    Forspoken falls into all the traps set by the design of an action adventure game in an open world, where linking narration and gameplay is a very difficult alchemy. A game that really only begins when it ends.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    God of Rock
    An innovative concept that misses its transformation from idea to reality, it's major originality becoming its main weakness.

    Mr. Prepper
    This survival game is far to easy and limited and getting ready for the apocalypse turns into daily chores quite quickly, but it does keep you going for the story.

    Heart of the Forest
    Heart of the Forest is a more than decent proposition on paper, but one that struggles to materialize and come to life properly in front of the camera.

    KIBORG
    A classic roguelite that ticks quite a few boxes, but whose technique is seriously lacking.

    Red Wings: Aces of the Sky
    Red Wings could have been a fun little game with more efforts from the developers. The lack of content makes it dull a after a - too little - while.

    Sheltered 2
    A lot of the fun in Sheltered 2 is about understanding how the game work, but you far to often realize it just doesn't. There's a lot of potential, but far too much frustration, even if Unicube decide to patch all the bugs.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem
    We all know what a Serious Sam game has to offer in terms of gameplay when we sign for it, and Siberian Mayhem delivers, but with technical glitches and general low performances that are not acceptable.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin
    A story that struggles to convince, an archaic and technically outdated game structure... Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin largely misses its rendez-vous with the saga's origin.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Balan Wonderworld
    Balan Wonderworld offers some good and colorful stories for the younger gamers, but there are too many technical problems and the gameplay is far too rigid and abstruse.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance
    Dungeons & Dragons Dark Alliance fails to captivate despite its efforts, clogged by too many problems, and the sheer repetitiveness of the game is overwhelming.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Black Legend
    A good progression system and deep tactical combat are Black Legend's greatest strengths, but the rest of the game is more archaic than old school and spoils most of the fun.
    • 65 Metascore

    Deliver At All Costs
    Deliver At All Cost is designed to entertain, but its repetitiveness and frustrating technique make it a bore.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    RENNSPORT
    A credible foundation, but lacking magic. Rennsport comes across as a practical exercise rather than a passion. A game that exudes precision, but not speed.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Songs Of Silence
    Songs of Silence misses the mark in a number of respects, weighing down the overall experience somewhat. The campaign is more frustrating than anything else, but the skirmish saves the day.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Blightbound
    Some good ideas and a great world building for this action RPG but it feels far too repetitive too quickly. We recommend Blightbound only to hardcore looters and farmers.
    • 67 Metascore

    Disjunction
    Disjunction fills all the specifications of its genre but fail to master them. Without that little extra soul that would keep us going for hours, boredom settles pretty quickly.

    • 40 Critic Score
    The Great War: Western Front
    The Great War: Western Front builds on very good ideas, but a lot of them are not properly executed, and the high difficulty doesn't help. It's not fun, the AI is cheating, too, unfortunately.

    CrossfireX
    Bad performance, low content, and an omnipresent shop... At least the solo campaign from Remedy is a bit interesting, but that part is not free to play.

    • 40 Critic Score
    Hammerting
    Hammerting gather many gameplay elements to make a great game but none of those mechanisms work together to create anything close to functional. Warpzone wasn't ready to release the game out of early access and we're not sure Hammerting will ever be a real game.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Harvest Hunt
    The chronic imbalance of the software catches up with us all too quickly, and the characters and solid lore won't erase that. We hope that the developers will be able to bring updates to make the experience more digestible and enjoyable.

    Hunter X Hunter: Nen Impact is not the long-awaited tribute to this legendary licence. No sooner done than forgotten.

    Funko Fusion
    Funko Fusion misses the opportunity to be a good action/adventure game, with such a range of licences under its belt. Unfortunately, the transition to reality is a painful one.

    • 40 Critic Score
    Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown
    Test Drive Solar Crown is hard to recommend, even to die-hard fans of the franchise, as it's so difficult to play the game without encountering bugs and crashes. And in reality, the Test Drive license seems to have been completely surpassed by its successors. Let's hope the developers can fix the game's many flaws and give it a second chance, because the potential is there, somewhere, buried under a mountain of bugs and unfinished features.

    Winter Ember
    Nothing works very well in Winter Ember and maybe the game should have focused on stealth only, to bring us a smaller but complete experience.

    Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharaoh
    What a disappointment! We had high hopes for Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharaoh and hoped to finally enjoy a game worthy of the name of the famous comic character. Unfortunately, there are still far too many inaccuracies, outdated ideas, tasteless sequences and bugs to make the whole thing satisfying.

    Flashback 2
    The return of Flashback is a failure on almost every level. It won't be necessary to polish the game after release, thank you.

    Babylon's Fall
    Babylon's Fall offers many interesting ideas, but Platinum Games fails to deliver anything polished and fun, seemingly more interested in its cash shop. Another game as service gone wrong.
