    Dynasty Warriors: Origins is the revolution long-time fans have been waiting for, but it doesn’t come without compromises. The new entry in the musou series serves as a perfect starting point for newcomers, while still offering enjoyment to veterans and genre enthusiasts thanks to an updated combat system, a level of graphical fidelty finally in line with modern standards, and a solid amount of content. The story is told with a maturity unseen in the series, and despite the protagonist’s lack of charisma, it remains engaging for most of its duration. The absence of co-op mode and the removal of the large playable cast are tough pills to swallow, but Omega Force and Koei Tecmo have clearly made an effort to innovate. While it doesn’t quite shake off some fundamental issues of the genre, Dynasty Warriors: Origins marks a significant step forward for the series and provides a great foundation for its future.

    Fun and entertaining, John Wick Hex hits the target and successfully transforms the hectic action of the movie saga in a brilliant boardgame-like strategic game with a great level design and an intriguing twist. The time management mechanic is crucial, intense and demanding, but quite fair and when dominated give a lot of satisfaction. Sometimes the difficulty curve is not well balanced and, overall, it lacks of the last touch to shine, but it's a solid good game, made with style and care.

    Celebrating 20 years of Mr. Driller with the remaster of its best chapter yet. Too bad there is not much new content, yet the game is very enjoyable both in single player and multiplayer.

    A fun arcade game with a lot of 80’s vibe and a really cool soundtrack. It’s not perfect, but it’s fun and with a lot to discover.

    Ascension is exactly the God of War you'd expect: colossal in its scale, technically majestic, insanely gruesome and fun to play. A huge production that shows the brute horsepower of the PS3, while denoting the weaknesses of a series that has reached its peak and needs a breathe of fresh air.

    FC 26 shakes off its laziness and pumps some blood into the veins of virtual soccer, putting gameplay back in the spotlight: more credible, more human, with enough heart to move PES nostalgics. The archetypes finally give the players soul, and the career modes regain depth. Of course, it's not all gold: there are flaws, licenses are lacking, cutscenes remain stiff, and there are many microtransactions. FC 26 doesn't revolutionize, but it respects those who play it. It's a step forward, not a quantum leap, and in today's digital soccer world, that's already a lot.

    Rebellion brings Sniper Elite 4 to the italian shores with the well-known formula and some marginal improvements. The result is a well-crafted experience and the extra composed by the possibility to play co-op and versus with other players.

    An astoundingly deep real time strategy game that offers a unique experience in world war 2 simulation. Some frustrating details keep it from being considered among the best.

    Just Dance 2021 is not a revolution but a confirmation, like every year. But, like every year, he also reiterates that his is a winning formula, which shows no sign of fading.

    The Rise of the Golden Idol is a good sequel with creative situations and an intriguing storyline. The difficulty level could be much higher, but this is another fine investigation from Color Gray Games.

    Sonic x Shadow Generations stands out as one of the stronger entries dedicated to SEGA’s iconic character. While Sonic Generations was already well-received at its original release, the addition of Shadow Generations rounds out the experience, making this collection appealing even to those familiar with the 2011 original. It’s not just for longtime fans of the Blue Blur but also for newcomers seeking a modern adventure, especially with the characters gaining renewed popularity thanks to recent films.

    It may not be remembered as one of the best titles in the series, but F1 23 has many arrows to its bow. From the driving model to the red flags, Codemasters has made an effort to make its simulation more accessible and fun without distorting its soul too much. The return of Braking Point mode is appreciable, while the addition of the F1 World hub is ideal for those looking for a quick challenge and who like to race online. Graphics, AI, and Career mode are aging badly and needing a refresh.

    Dead Rising 4 is the worthy heir of its predecessor. The return of Frank West does not change the gameplay introduced three years ago maintaining all the non-sense on which the saga has built its fame. The price, however, is a lowering of the difficulty far beyond an acceptable sense of challenge.

    A good DLC that marks the ending for the new, experimental path chosen by Game Freak and Nintendo for the Pokémon saga. The second expansion included in Shield and Sword Season Pass adds lots of contents and legendary creatures to discover in a brand new area.

    Payday 2 still is a very solid and funny cooperative shooter even on Switch, despite the lack of some content (heists, masks) you can find in the PC version.

    I loved Indika, even if I have the impression that some practical limitations held back the creative ambitions of its developers. Nonetheless, it is a game rich in ideas, drawing on Russian art and literature while reworking some of their recurring themes from a modern perspective that works especially well in a video game.

    Keeper is an experience that goes beyond the traditional concept of a video game. It is an inner journey disguised as an adventure, a silent story that speaks through gestures, light, and the breath of the environments. Double Fine, once again, proves itself to be a studio capable of bending the language of video games to a rare authorial sensibility.

    To beat Teleglitch: Die More Edition you need a lot of patience and resilience, this game can be hard and cruel sometimes. Behind the lo-fi presentation, there's a wonderful shoot'em up, with a rogue like soul and a touch of horror. You'll get scared a lot. And you're gonna love it.

    A good mix of puzzle and turn-based strategy also recommended to those unfamiliar with the Agent 47. And as they say in these cases: so cheap, so satisfying.

    Digimon Story: Time Stranger might be one small step for the RPG genre, but it's definitely one giant leap for the Digimon series, which is enjoying a resurgence with this game taking the center stage. The newest installment in the Digimon Story series manages to be both what longtime fans have been waiting for and the perfect entry point for others, a carefully crafted licensed video game with a storyline that offers thrilling moments that rival those of the anime. Ready to jump into DigiWorld?

    Lums is a fine physics-based puzzle that brings some light in a crowded genre. It's derivative for sure, but nevertheless it's funny to approach the "physics based puzzle game" in a new light. It's short, though: the 48 levels can last for just three hours, if you don't want to catch all the stars.
