If you manage to get beyond the absence of the single campaign, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is a solid multiplayer shooter full of content.

Starlink marks a bold and intriguing return for the toys-to-life genre. An engrossing if ultimately flawed space journey.

Child of Light is as great a game today as it was four years ago, a delicate and stylish gem which shows that even if you produce AAA title with dancers and assassins you still manage to create something ethereal and gentle.

A game full of charm and attention to detail. In the face of a combat system never 100% accurate remains a solid and exciting experience. Definitely recommended for those who have never had the opportunity to try the original, the title has something to say even to those who want to dive back into the world of Neku.

WWE 2K19 improves in almost any way the last year's edition. It's a rich and engrossing game... with some visual flaws.

Madden 19 does not redefine the series but it's a great game nevertheless.

FIFA 19 on Switch is a decent football game, but still a far cry from the PS4, Xbox One and PC editions.

Price and censorship aside, South Park: The Stick of Truth on Switch is still a great RPG after four years and (perhaps even more than the sequel) the best South Park game we could wish for.

A good party game that takes advantage of the console and its control system.

Suffer the Children is an episode of discreet quality, which even without touching particularly high peaks can assert itself for some successful action sequences.

Despite some minor issues, 428: Shibuya Scramble is one of the most unique visual novels ever seen.

Despite the new graphics, this is a classic Mega Man, with all its pros and cons. It's a clever and challenging game. The normal difficulty will give you the NES era brand of frustration and accomplishment, whereas the easy mode (which is definitely not too easy) presents a challenge suitable for people who don't have so much time on their hands.

Astro Bot: Rescue Mission is a one of a kind platform game. A smart, funny, unpredictable game that testifies to how the VR can truly change any game.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey follows Origin's steps in the process of trasforming the series in a big and rich open world ARPG.

A good free-to-play MOBA for PS4 and a really good VR game.

Wandersong is an unforgettable adventure and one of the most interesting indie game of this year. Bow down to the little bard.

NHL 19 is a great new chapter in the already glorious history of the EA IP. It succeeds in reinvigorating the gameplay on the ice, but something more could have been done off the rink (gameplay modes, matchmaking).

One of the best arcade racing game series successfully married with the typical online experiences of the current generation.

Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse is a great point&click adventure, an heir worthy of the first two original games from Revolution Software.

Halfway between graphic adventure and walking simulator (but with the plus of VR), Transference is not a game for everyone, but its atmosphere is priceless.

FIFA 19 is the best FIFA in years. The game has been improved on and off the pitch. Now with more Champions League!

Another step forward for NBA Live, which although still far from the historical rival NBA 2K, manages to reach good levels with this new episode.

Capcom at its finest: a bunch of interesting and still largely enjoyable beat'em up.

Another Sight shows a beautiful steampunk world, but its technical limits are the major obstacle to what could have been a really nice game.

An arcade racing game with some spectacular moments, whose roots are guiltily stuck in the past.

Despite the microtransactions, the new masterpiece of Visual Concepts rules on and off the court. NBA 2K19 is full of features and details and it’s one of the best basketball sims, ever.

A bright and unpretentious fighting game, who pays the duty for his ambitions of immediacy, finishing up being rather insipid.

Strong in art style and founded on an interesting premise, Bad North is not deep enough to entertain for a long time.

Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner M∀RS is (still) the best mecha videogame.

A good successor to the original Valkyria Chronicles, with some new stuff. It's a pity the game is so stuck in its past.

Even if largely predictable, Shadow of the Tomb Raider is an engrossing and enjoyable adventure, full of things to do.

A cartoonish adventure inspired by the Disney cartoons of the 90s and by the old point and click games. Good riddles and a lot of laughs.

Engaging, fast and frenetic, Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker feels good in its attempt to recreate the action of both manga and anime, despite minor issues here and there.

Marvel’s Spider-Man is undoubtedly the best Spider-Man videogame ever made, but it could have been a lot better.

The game is repetitive and the gameplay too bland. Only recommended to big fans of Yo-Kai Watch.

The game is repetitive and the gameplay is too bland. Only recommended to big fans of Yo-Kai Watch.

Firewall Zero Hour is the small equivalent of Rainbow Six Siege played in virtual reality. A big difference, especially with an Aim Controller in your hands.

On the pitch PES 2019 it really is the beautiful game. But it needs some serious improvements in the game modes and online options.

Donut County sports a rich and lovable cast, but its whole gameplay idea is too shallow.

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate is not so easy to pick for new players, but extremely rewarding once you get into it. Technically speaking, its style feels too old for the new generation console: the Nintendo side of the Capcom saga needs, more than ever, a new, fresh beginning.

The fourth and final season of The Walking Dead starts off on the right foot, with a long-lived and well-written episode that does not renounce to small but important technical-structural innovations.

An excellent port of a true masterpiece. The only real drawback is the control system: the dualshock isn't the most streamlined means of taming an isometric RPG.

The Messenger is a brilliant action platformer (...or is it a metroidvania?), full of irony and pretty difficult jumps. The time shift between the 8-bit past and the 16-bit "future" is what makes the game shine - even with its low replayability.

Dragon Quest XI is simply the best Dragon Quest of all time. A classic old school RPG, with all the best things taken from over 30 years of JRPG.

Strange Brigade is a visceral, frantic and ultimately funny third person shooter. Nothing more, nothing less.

Shenmue is still a niche game, now as it was then. It's the primordial soup of the modern games for gameplay and storytelling, but it still has the charm and magic of yore, delivered with high-level art direction.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 continues to stick to the franchise’s strengths, making Kiryu’s world deeper.

Battle for Azeroth is a good expansion for World of Warcraft, with not so many improvements in gameplay, but plenty of new content to experience and enjoy.

Guacamelee 2 is as good as the first episode: if you loved the original one, five years ago, you'll like this too. Wonderful art direction, great music, very good gameplay, just a little bit frustrating sometimes.

A complete and satisfying Formula 1 game, a must have for the discipline’s fans.

Unavowed is another adventurous little gem by Wadjet Eye Games, although with even more than usual in terms of gameplay and storytelling.

We Happy Few must clash with a gameplay that doesn’t fascinate too much, but its plot, settings and longevity are more convincing.

La-Mulana 2 is exactly the sequel that all fans waited for. Level design and puzzles are really astonishing, but plenty of frustration and general confusion make La-Mulana 2 so difficult to play for the majority of players.

An excellent bidimensional action game with exquisite artwork and very good control system. It could suck hours and hours of your time if you give it a chance (and you should).

A good sequel of the first Overcooked, with more contents and more fun, thanks to the online mode.

A metroidvania with some interesting ideas, but lacks in combat system and level design, resulting just sufficient in all of its mechanics and not worth a second run.

Paladins fills a fairly significant gap in the Switch’s library. Some minor issues aside, it's generally a great experience.

A good package that pays tribute to the long running WarioWare series and a great opportunity for all the newcomers.

This is The Police 2 is Fargo mixed with X-Com. Managing all your cops is fun, but sometimes it's a bit too harsh without any reason. Like life.

A nice a game, clearly aimed at younger kids and those looking for a "casual" and fun gaming experience with friends.

The Persistence is a real gem, as well as one of the most long-lasting and complete virtual reality experiences you can find on PlayStation VR today.

An original title with a split personality, half puzzle game and half walking simulator. Both parts are brilliantly developed, but their forced dichotomy breaks the rhythm of the game.

Unoriginal and with dull gunplay, Earthfall should only be considered if you plan to play it online with your friends.

Animal Force is a simple VR tower defence, suitable for those who want to approach this genre for the first time, but its party games can give everyone a lot of fun.

A good platform-RPG, through its difficulty needs some balancing. Perfect for the fans of the series.

A good sequel to the ideal game for Burnout’s orphans, or at least those of the Crash mode.

A great little game, full of cartoonish violence and great physics-based puzzles.

Salary Man Escape is a great puzzle game ruined by its useless VR integration.

Pro Cycling Manager 2018 is still the best game for the cycling enthusiasts out there... even if it's the same game from the previous years.

Bomb Chicken is a visually stunning and smart game, with a lovable (and explosive) main character.

Octopath Traveler manages to remain faithful to the glorious past of the JRPG genre without feeling outdated.

It’s not gonna trouble the most complex and tactical JRPG’s fans, but Shining Resonance Refrain deserves to be played and enjoyed.

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker is a smart, fascinating puzzle game. A must have for Switch and 3DS owners.

A great addition to the 4X offer. There are only four factions, but each of them is well thought out and offers a unique playing experience.

After all these years, Lumines is still an addictive puzzle game. Don't miss it.

It's a shame that for the second time Red Faction: Guerrilla will not have the attention that deserves, but the truth is that the game, despite the fact that it's still fun to play, is simply outdated.

The Crew 2 is a racing online game without the online part. This leaves us with some good views, some nice rides, but without something strong enough to keep going.

AO International Tennis is not perfect, but is a good mix of simulation (70%) and arcade (30%) and can only improve further thanks to the continuous support of the developers.

After last year switch to Unreal Engine 4, MXGP keeps improving its physics and graphics. Now it is time to cut the long and boring loading times between the enjoyable motocross races.

With Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, Panic Button is reconfirmed as a very talented developer to bring triple A titles to Switch.

Wreckfest maintains all its promises we expected in all these years of development: destruction, a very accurate physical model and a lot of fun.

Even though Captain Spirit stays in his comfort zone most of the time, there are some interesting new ideas in it. We definitely will see Chris again in Life is Strange 2, and I’m curious to see how his life will cross Arcadia Bay’s.

Better or worse, an amusing game of the twenty years long LEGO series.

A musou-like action game, a bit repetitive and easy. Perfect just for the fans of Gundam and gunplay models.

Tennis World Tour is simply a game not yet ready to go out on the market and it still really has too many gaps, flaws and uncertainties.

Mario Tennis Aces looks fine and plays even better. But its single player story mode is a real disappointment.

A simple park simulation game, with good graphics. A bit too easy, it's good for Jurassic Park's series fans.

Unravel Two is a good platform game, full of puzzles, sometimes to easy. The atmosphere is dreamy, but the first chapter was more fresh.

Fun by yourself and with others too, Summerset doesn't add much to the formula but will entertain for all of its thirty hours or so.

After some years in the shadows, the official MotoGP game is back in pole position.

An interesting shooter that reminds one of Italian noir with some Tarantino's ideas. A good indie, but some unnecessary difficulty spikes ruin the overall flow.

OnRush is an exhilarating, old-school arcade racer... with both its feet firmly planted in the new "online multiplayer" millennium. It needs more depth in its class system and more modes, but it's fun as hell.

Vampyr sets a new standard for Dontnod's already excellent narrative. Combined with a fine action RPG mechanic, it offers an immersive and difficult-to-forget experience.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a great way to celebrate the best beat'em up in history. It's got the games, it's got the story, it can be played everywhere (on Switch): that's more than enough.

An excellent conclusion to an already excellent game. Ship navigation and above all ship combat are lackluster, but the general experience is fun and engrossing. Overall one of the best RPGs out there.

Albeit an arguably better version of Deathwing, this enhanced edition isn't able to overcome the faults of the original game. The emperor is displeased.

Something more could be done regarding graphics and additions/improvements to the game formula, but Dark Souls Remastered remains a successful re-release of an extraordinary game.
