With Saros, Housemarque once again proves what it's made of. It's a step forward from Returnal, building on the best parts of that experience and elevating them even further.

That, combined with the character portrayals and the story of its two protagonists, makes Pragmata one of the must-play games of the year so far.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties delves into Kazuma Kiryu's past to bring back one of the best episodes of Yakuza. Ryu Ga Gotoku refines the original title with brutal combat, new activities, and plenty of mini-games that aid exploration to create bombproof gameplay. New stories, improved storytelling, Spanish subtitles, and the addition of Dark Ties make this pack one of the studio's best remakes. It's the perfect excuse to relive Kiryu's past and understand his role in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased his Name and Infinite Wealth.

Mewgenics is a game that embraces chaos, randomness, and failure as central elements of its experience. It rewards players not for perfect optimization, but for skillfully managing uncertainty. Its grotesque aesthetic and challenging mechanics reflect the vision of its creator: the notion that absolute control is an illusion. Therefore, the game does not aim to be universally appealing or friendly; instead, it embodies a design philosophy that acknowledges losing as progress.

Nioh 3 has two pillars: Its duality of ninja and samurai combat and an open world filled with things to do. Fans of the franchise will especially enjoy the fast-paced action and speed, but will also be the victims of its main flaw.

Its fabulous technical execution, gameplay consistent with the narrative, and above all, its enormous success in entertaining us like the best of series, make it one of the most remarkable games of recent months.

Tales of Xillia Remastered is a well-deserved second chance. This is a very traditional JRPG that, while not groundbreaking within the genre, is one of the most beloved in the Tales of series. This is the best way to enjoy it, thanks to its improved graphics and extensive quality-of-life options that allow you to customize the experience to the max.

Dragon Quest I and II HD-2D Remake is the best way to enjoy these classics thanks to its beautiful technical aspects and quality-of-life improvements. These are two very demanding games, and their greatest strength lies in their role as an archaeological review of the origins of a genre as beloved as turn-based JRPGs.

Obsidian returns to its role-playing roots and, after Avowed, which focused on combat mechanics, and the brilliant Grounded 2, which focused on survival and exploration, recaptures that special something that made us fall in love with New Vegas. A capital-letter RPG that offers a multitude of options when it comes to creating our character, following our path, and achieving the best ending based on our tastes and decisions. Its improved combat, more than stable performance, and character and level design on par with its multiple stories put the finishing touch on a sequel that improves on its predecessor in every way.

Caroline Walker returns with her sister in a new adventure that far surpasses the first Tormented Souls. The Araneda brothers' survival horror expands in this sequel with a more ambitious approach that rivals the great classics of the genre. Beautifully and intelligently designed settings, powerful characters, and an immense number of deep puzzles are the keys to a quest that will take us through different locations in search of our sister.

This constantly evolving platform game takes us on a journey with the lighthouse keeper and his feathered friend through a decaying world full of mysteries and surprises. Its exquisite level design offers a mini adventure in each of its 39 chapters, including new mechanics, movements, and strategies at every step of our odyssey. With no combat, no text, and no dialogue, Keeper manages to make itself understood through its silences and melodies, much better than other works riddled with words and violence.

Running, driving, jumping, fighting, and surviving in The Beast is tremendously fun, all in a beautiful, unique setting full of different areas that invite exploration and encourage you to visit every corner. A very good comeback that leaves me satisfied as a fan of Techland's zombies since the first Dead Island and, of course, the first Dying Light.

Helldivers 2 arrives on Xbox after a year and a half of content, just before a major update.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater changes what needs to be changed while leaving the core intact. A remake that is both a gift to fans and a golden opportunity for anyone venturing into Operation Snake Eater for the first time.

The Rogue Prince of Persia is a must-have roguelite for fans of the genre. While not revolutionary, it introduces several enriching features to a well-known formula.

Drag X Drive is a title that stands out for its love of different sports. The game encourages you to practice and be creative to score as many points as possible, rewarding you for every step of your learning process.

Mafia: The Old Country is a solid entry that takes the franchise to 1900s Sicily to explore the origins of the mafia. It stands out for its emotional and believable narrative, as well as its well-crafted historical setting. Moreover, the story doesn’t overshadow the gameplay, which is varied and thoughtfully designed.

Konami keeps its promise to revive love for its most classic franchises with Gradius Origins. A love letter to the beginnings of the series, it takes the titles from the first 11 years and adds a kind of “what if” scenario that for many will be the biggest draw of the compilation. Six classic titles, all the arcade versions, and a juicy bonus, the previously unreleased Salamander III, are joined by a host of customization options and a perfect recreation. The result? A compilation that manages to hook us back into a saga that hasn't lost an ounce of its epicness.

The new EA Sports F1 25 will not revolutionize neither the genre nor the saga, being as continuous as it is, but it has polished certain aspects (others not) and added interesting options to team management and multiplayer. LiDAR technology really is quite impressive.

With a free exploration that works and a combat system that takes the best of the genre, Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon is a new step in the western RPG.

Deliver At All Costs teaches us that delivering the package on time is fundamental. If you have to destroy the whole city to do it... so be it. A funny, interesting and very enjoyable game. Another indie to remember.

After our first foray into the Savage Planet, Revenge of the Savage Planet ups the ante with a more ambitious and well-rounded game offer. A 100-year journey that culminates in the exploration of an entire abandoned solar system at the hand of a large corporation. Its 3D metroidvania proposal includes platforms, combat, exploration and a large number of puzzles and collectibles that will help us achieve the desired ending... or succumb in the attempt. All this wrapped in a hooligan and irreverent humor that sometimes goes too far in its intention to criticize the world in which we live and in which we could live.
