Rematch brings a bold twist to a genre that’s been playing it safe for too long, offering a fast, stylish, and skill-driven take on football. Its gameplay is both accessible and surprisingly deep, turning every match into a highlight reel. Still, technical hiccups, balancing issues, and missing features like crossplay and offline modes keep it from reaching its full potential. Sloclap has built something great, and with the right support, Rematch could grow into a true standout in the genre.

A light-hearted experience, primarily aimed at younger players, that slips a bit too quickly into repetition.

The Alters by Polish developer 11 Bit Studios once again showcases their talent for blending complex gameplay mechanics with a thoughtfully crafted narrative and mature themes. The decision to make the protagonist's clones into fully realized alter egos - each with distinct personalities, backgrounds, and ambitions - adds meaningful depth to this unique survival-management experience. While the interface can feel a bit unwieldy, and the gameplay loops may become repetitive with an uneven difficulty curve, these issues don’t detract from the game's compelling story, immersive atmosphere, and solid visual design.

Dune: Awakening shows immense promise, with a solid foundation that’s set to grow over time through strong developer support and early enthusiasm from the community. It’s easily the most faithful and immersive adaptation of Frank Herbert’s universe to date, crafted with a meticulous attention to detail that fans of the saga will instantly recognize. Despite its depth, the game remains approachable for newcomers, offering smart onboarding tools like the in-game codec to help players get acquainted with the world and its systems. The gameplay blends complexity with accessibility, supported by a clear and intuitive interface. While there are still some questions around multiplayer balance, this is shaping up to be one of the year’s most ambitious and rewarding survival MMOs.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach boldly expands the philosophical and post-apocalyptic universe created nearly six years ago by Hideo Kojima, enriching and diversifying the gameplay with dynamics, yet without managing to replicate the narrative strength, character charm, and emotional impact of the first, surprising chapter. Technically stunning and artistically inspired, this sequel manages to entertain and engage, but also leaves the impression that its narrative structure cannot always sustain the dozens of hours needed to complete the adventure without lapses in pacing and intensity.

Lies of P: Overture is a strong and rewarding expansion that builds on the base game with memorable bosses, new gear, and a darker, emotional storyline that acts as both prequel and epilogue. While some issues remain - like uneven level design and occasional camera hiccups - the excellent combat additions, quality of life improvements, and high narrative quality make it a must-play for fans, offering 15 hours of rich, atmospheric content.

The best chance to rediscover a title that pays homage to classic JRPGs.

A short but engaging roguelite. Its mechanics are both immediate and layered, and it closes the adventures of Queen Alexandra very well after Lost in Random.

Mario Kart World is the most ambitious entry in the series so far, introducing fresh ideas like the standout Survival mode alongside its familiar, enjoyable gameplay. The concept of an interconnected world is a bold move that opens up new exploration opportunities, although the open world itself feels somewhat empty and some features seem a bit undercooked. Despite these flaws, the game delivers a solid and engaging experience that can provide countless hours of fun, especially with friends. It’s not quite the ultimate Mario Kart yet, but it’s a significant step in that direction.

A missed opportunity: Kingsroad captures Westeros well but is overwhelmed by pay-to-win mechanics. Only the most patient fans might endure it.

Monster Train 2 can end your social life in an instant because it is so fun, challenging and addictive. The many new features may not be particularly innovative, but they still manage to make this sequel a must-have roguelike deckbuilder for any fan of the genre.

F1 25 is everything a Formula 1 fan could want. For the 2025 season, Codemasters' attention has focused on the return of Braking Point 3. The graphics and sound compartment remained at an excellent level, with appreciable renovation work on some circuits and a "reverse" experiment that proved successful. The sim-cade driving model has veered toward that of the well-received F1 23 to meet community demands, but the physics engine and game structure remain virtually unchanged with all the pros and cons. F1 25 remains a thoroughly enjoyable experience for fans of Leclerc, Norris, Piastri, Russell and co. New ideas are beginning to be lacking, however, while several modes and aspects of the game are beginning to show signs of aging.

Elden Ring Nightreign has a lot of good ideas on its side, a lot of quality, and I'm sure it will blossom during the coming months; however, at the moment the ratio of fun to frustration seems a bit problematic.

Fuga: Melodies of Steel 3 concludes the saga brilliantly from a narrative perspective, but the gameplay feels a bit weaker in its repetitiveness.

A competent open world action game that answers how fun it would be to be a cop in a gta like game. The answer? Pretty fun.

An extremely conservative operation. More like a port with extra content than a remaster; a product intended for fans of the saga and fans of the video game's history, but unlikely to appeal to younger gamers.

An action-adventure that is guilty of a lot of naivety and tries to do too much, without really concluding anything. Too bad, because the potential was all there.

Crazy, destructive, and full of absurd ideas, Deliver At All Costs is fun despite some flaws and repetitiveness.

Visually beautiful and boasting first-class sound design, The Midnight Walk does not impress as positively in gameplay.

A valuable collection to return to the early 2000s and (re)discover timeless classics.

An irreverent, colorful and intelligent space adventure, which confirms Raccoon Logic's talent in telling absurd worlds that, deep down, are all too similar to our own. It's not perfect, but it's fun.

Doom: The Dark Ages marks a new chapter for the series, excelling in its combat system and more open map design, though it falls short in other areas.

While seeking to expand beyond its predecessor, the second chapter is burdened with both existing and new difficulties.

The graphics are marginally improved, but the new Horde Assault mode breathes new life into an open world that, despite some repetitiveness, maintains its post-apocalyptic charm intact.

Not the most revolutionary, but certainly one of the most enjoyable chapters of the series to immediately immerse yourself in the world of MotoGP.

Don't Nod returns to its roots with a story split between past and present that shines in character development and atmosphere, but suffers from dilated pacing and a rushed resolution to the central mystery.

A paradigm shift for turn-based RPGs, respectful of their heritage yet unafraid to dismantle and rebuild their foundations.

A successful "remaster" operation of one of the best puzzle games of the last decade, now with enhanced graphics, added content and a level editor.
