Battlefield 6 is a game with a solid core but one that hasn't quite found its footing. The multiplayer foundation is strong, the atmosphere is unmatched, and the technical performance is flawless. However, sacrificing the series' strategic depth for the sake of a ruthless speed based on split-second reflexes leaves it a step behind its legendary predecessors. Unfortunately, the campaign mode feels like a complete disaster that should be completely ignored.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Ninja Gaiden 4 and played the game with great interest. The touches and innovations brought to the gameplay are like a breath of fresh air for a genre and series that had lost its former popularity. Ninja Gaiden 4 doesn't claim to reinvent the wheel, and it's fair to say there are no particularly risky innovations in the game. However, the $70 price tag does raise some questions, especially considering it only takes about 15 hours to reach the credits.

Octopath Traveler 0 isn't a flawless game; there are moments where the pace dips, but overall, its strengths balance this out quite well. If you enjoy turn-based JRPGs, especially if you've enjoyed other games in the series, this adventure is definitely worth checking out for its music, story progression, and pixel graphics.

Suikoden I&II HD Remaster, which contains remastered versions of two great games that are hard to find today, is a great packet, but it seems a bit rushed and missed the opportunity to reach more players with a more modern version.

Deep within Marathon, there lies a shooter that’s simply fantastic—especially in its end-game maps and core weapon mechanics. For hardcore players who find ARC Raiders too easygoing and forgiving and are craving a bloodier experience, this could be a fantastic playground. However, when viewed as an extraction game that constantly demands you risk your efforts, the pieces don’t quite fall into place. It’s completely lacking the warmth and motivation that would draw in casual players or those looking to dip their toes into the genre. It’s a game where ideas with immense potential are crushed under mechanics that unnecessarily overwhelm the player.

Star Wars Outlaws has done a truly excellent job with its Nintendo Switch 2 port. The game offers the opportunity to play with Xbox Series S performance on the go. Details like achieving a stable 30 fps and the graphics being visually stunning in places demonstrate just how successful a port it is for the handheld console.

Mouse: P.I. For Hire successfully brings its vision of combining the animation style of the 1930s with fast-paced shooter mechanics to life on screen. This adventure, which lasts about 15 hours, keeps players fully immersed with its satisfying combat, environmental design, and smooth technical performance. If you’re looking for pure, fast-paced, and intense action, this nostalgic world will more than satisfy you. However, if you’re expecting a deep detective experience worthy of the game’s name, complex character progression trees, or versatile progression systems, you’re likely to be somewhat disappointed. Despite all this, I believe it’s one of the most compelling and deserving titles of the year, thanks to its style, boldness, and the pure fun it offers.

Keeper stands out with its constantly evolving gameplay and surrealist design philosophy, while at its core lies the story of a deeply sincere friendship. A tale of rebirth, clinging to life, and a journey of struggle, told through the eyes of two unlikely heroes, this is another original triumph from Double Fine.

F1 25 is a step in the right direction for the Formula 1 series of games, which has been disappointing us for a while. The revamped My Team mode, the third chapter of the Braking Point story, improved controls, and an increased number of lidar-scanned tracks are some of the reasons to buy the game. However, I wish Electronic Arts had spent the time they used developing the option to race in reverse on F1 tracks, on simplifying the game menu instead...

Digimon Story: Time Stranger might be the best Digimon game yet. Its smooth performance, fun gameplay, and rich content delight fans while also attracting new players.

PGA Tour 2K25 is a very good golf simulation with the addition of a career mode, visual improvements and the magnificent EvoSwing system. With its strong Online play side supported by Societes, which it offered in previous games, and the ability to build and play your own course, it may be the best game that golf game lovers can find at the moment.

Wanderstop is an entertaining and heartfelt life story disguised as a simple and cute business simulation. This is Alta's story, my story, and quite possibly your story too.

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake is a faithful reimagining of the original game— visually impressive, satisfying in terms of performance, and successful at keeping players hooked thanks to its sense of mystery. However, while some of the new abilities introduced add value to the game, they also take away from it in significant ways. Regardless, for fans of the genre, this remake of a classic is a must-play.

WWE 2K25 has innovative features and offers a visually impressive experience. However, in-game purchases and the lack of depth in some modes can sometimes detract from the overall gameplay experience. If you're a gamer interested in the world of WWE, WWE 2K25 is definitely worth your time and investment. However, for more casual gamers or those who are concerned about in-game purchases, this game may not live up to expectations.

Reanimal breathes fresh life into the genre with its new gameplay mechanics and immense world. However, its story, centered around domestic violence and childhood trauma, is overly veiled. On the other hand, the incredible world design, music, and valuable cinematic narrative choices, such as the bus stop scene, enhance the game's appeal. Despite everything, Reanimal is a game worth playing, but it fails to live up to the immense expectations placed upon it.

Bethesda has certainly made a serious effort to meet expectations — that much is clear. However, this effort has mostly been limited to visual and surface-level changes. Core elements such as in-depth gameplay mechanics, AI behavior, and the animation system have not seen any fundamental overhauls.

Even though the games themselves may have some flaws, Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection is a fantastic collection that brings together all Star Force content released to date and is designed to provide a seamless experience on the new generation of consoles.

Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf, priced at $20, is a sequel that successfully builds upon the beloved formula of the first game by adding new layers of both narrative and gameplay. It’s a must-have for fans of the cinematic platformer genre and anyone looking to lose themselves in a strange world accompanied by stunning art direction.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is an ambitious entry that both succeeds and stumbles in equal measure. Its breathtaking world, refined stealth mechanics, and dual protagonists create a fresh experience, but pacing issues, inconsistent AI, and combat imbalances hold it back from true greatness.

It's not perfect, but the world it offers, its art design, music, characters and stories will take you to a completely different land for about 7 hours. A dark, scary and real land that will stab you in the heart.

Dying Light: The Beast delivers on nearly everything it promises. While the action can feel repetitive at times, it's still fun, and wreaking havoc with your creature powers is a distinct pleasure. The map is smaller than previous ones but still offers enough content to be satisfying and is well-designed.

The Switch 2 version of Romancing SaGa 2 offers better graphics, higher performance and faster loading times, making this exceptional JRPG experience best experienced on portable consoles.

While The Forsaken Hollows is a must-have DLC pack for players who enjoy Nightreign, it doesn't offer.

Civilization VII brings a fresh twist to the series. With its revamped era structure and new civilization-leader combinations, you'll need to come up with different strategies in every game. It's an enjoyable journey for newcomers to Civilization, but veterans might need some time to get used to the changes. While the game feels a bit unfinished, it's still a lot of fun.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond may not have made the leap everyone was hoping for, but it's still a game worthy of the series' name. It's a lot of fun to play, and the sense of discovery is still top-notch. However, the half-baked open world, unnecessarily drawn-out missions, and characters who talk too much at times do disrupt the game's rhythm a bit. But these flaws certainly don't overshadow the game's strengths.

Days Gone Remastered is a game that leaves you in limbo. If the struggle for survival in an open world filled with massive zombie hordes appeals to you, then yes, this version is absolutely the best, brightest, and smoothest way to experience the game. However, if you played the original game and were disappointed, particularly due to the issues I've mentioned, this Remastered version won't make you fall in love with the game again.

MotoGP 25 is the first game of the series that I have played after a long time, and the game reminded me of this by crashing many times. However, my failures did not turn me off from the game, on the contrary, they increased my ambition to go around the track a second, half a second, 0.1 seconds faster. This is the purest proof of how good the game is.

Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream offers a fun, creative and personal experience. Building your own little world and witnessing the absurd yet equally entertaining events your characters experience is truly a unique feeling. However, it is unacceptable for a game that is supposed to be so social to isolate its players to such an extent. Living the Dream generally succeeds in providing players with a fantastic playground, yet it barely allows you to share that space with others.
