New World Order prepares the ground for the last two episodes of Batman: The Telltale Series, by telling us a different story of the Dark Knight where the Wayne family is not as we always thought.

Quotation forthcoming.

If you loved Oxenfree, you can't not play this Oxenfree II: Lost Signals, especially because it carries on (and ends?) a story that still has several things to say and several mysteries to reveal.

Project X Zone 2 is a better game than its prequel with tons of customization options, cool mechanics and fan-service jokes thrown together in a fun and colorful mess which unfortunately gets quite repetitive soon.

Futuridium EP Deluxe delivers an original, compelling, challenging and fast-paced indie shooter.

Hack 'n' Slash teaches everybody with the marvelous art of coding, with funny mechanics and a cute setting. We only wish that Double Fine had some more time to polish it a bit more.

Tri Force Heroes shines in local multiplayer, but the main storyline is no way as interesting as it should be. Extra missions are a great add; fun and nice with friends but not so much interesting alone.

Stories: The Path of Destinies has unique storytelling and good progression, even tough the combat system could have been deeper.

In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl we have two distinct souls: the strict remake and the new features. It's still a pleasure to explore Sinnoh, but a more ILCA should have done more to blend all the new stuff and the core game.

In its Nintendo DS version, Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions confirms the good idea of taking three different Spider-Man, each with unique powers, and put them into the same game. Packed with nice graphics and sounds, Griptonite Games' last effort comes as a very good action game for all the Spidey fans out there.

Funny and colorful, De Blob Revolution lacks of deep after few hours of play and has no multiplayer mode to extend the longevity. Still worth a try tough.

Arcana Heart 3 is not a game for everyone but it's certainly astonishing for every 2D fighting game fan out there. As always, super-sexy heroines are an appreciated touch, but the best addition to the series is the new Force Gauge system, providing deeper battles with AI players and your friends.

With its great characters, solid plot, well written dialogues and interesting puzzles, Deception is probably one of the best point and click adventures of the year. Maybe the only real complaint is the lack of graphics coherence.

With its distinctive and unique approach to gender, Sideway: New York is a nice side-scrolling platformer with a new interesting 3D concept. Even though the combat may not be the best and the checkpoint system makes the longevity of the game not memorable.

Despite the name, Rise to Fame: The Music RPG is not a role-playing game, but a casual game with a bit of action. Nonetheless it's simple to play and comes with lots of items and abilities to unlock.

Real Steel: World Robot Boxing basically delivers the same experience of the first game of the series, though this time around the game is more freemium-oriented.

Yatagarasu: Attack on Cataclysm is a technical beat'em up, designed for the professionals.

The Walking Dead: Road to Survival is a competent base building game with some nice emphasis on combat, however the mechanics are way too similar to dozens of other titles you probably already played...and got bored of.

Dungeon Travelers 2 is a quite good first person dungeon crawler with some interesting JRPG gameplay mechanics. Furthermore, it's full of half naked sexy girls and fan service.

Dragon Quest Heroes is a good mix between musou and RPG, representing a new compelling direction for Omega Force titles and the genre itself. The PC version is technically better those on consoles, but still suffers for general lack of graphic settings.

Wrapped in a beautiful package of nice graphics and a bit of background to stage the battles, BattleHand is a solid card game plagued by it quite greedy micro-transaction system.

Hawken is one of the best free to play titles on the market, also playable without spending money. On xbox one textures are poor and there is an annoying tearing, but overall it is good to see and play.

Bear With Me: The Complete Collection is an investigative adventure with noir atmosphere and a lot of humor.

If you are looking for a light adventure that criticizes the world of gaming development with shrewd nonsense, then it could be worth your time.

Idol Manager is the perfect experience for those who seek a real challenge: go and do your best in trying to run a company in its every core aspects, from marketing to promotion and performance on stage.

Punctual as a Swiss watch, here is the new incarnation of the official game of the motocross world championship. Let's see if the Milestone guys did their "dirty" job in the MXGP 2021 review.

Outriders Worldslayer is the expansion we all expected. It does not upset the cards on the table, it adds a bunch of campaign hours, an important amount of new loot and even a deeper lore and rpg section.

Quotation forthcoming.

Cities: VR - Enhanced Edition is an excellent management game with complex and stratified gameplay. Unfortunately, virtual reality is not well suited to the genre, and the absence of a campaign mortifies the progression of the experience.

Essentially, we are faced with a technically interesting game simply because it is the first to use the Unreal Engine 5, narratively excellent, but it can greatly disappoint those who are looking for a game that doesn't just tell them about fear but actually makes them live it.

Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is a great remake of a great classic, maybe too hard for the modern audience.

Quotation forthcoming.

As beautiful to look and listen to as it is, Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree is a very Japanese take on Hades with some clever gameplay twists but fails to capture the snappiness and and immediacy that the roguelite genre requires to be actually engaging.

Fresh, fun, light-hearted, immediate, Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition is the quintessence of gaming of yesteryear, when you played and replayed the same software over and over again until you learnt it by heart and did home-made speedruns. A joy of nostalgic gameplay.

A good action RPG that tries to emulate the Souls series but lacks in terms of variety and length.

Strange Brigade is a fun and well-made third person shooter, packed with a simple but catchy formula, especially if played with friends.

Flight Control Rocket maintains the same fun of the predecessor but not the same freshness; however there are two or three new features, like the Bots for example, that could be considered interesting.

Surviving Mars is perfectly suited for all the Elon Musk out there without the money of Elon Musk.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 delivers an experience designed for younger gamers that suffers from the same old problems, offers some nice puzzles but only a few smiles.

Virtua Tennis 2009, as an arcade, is worse than Wii Sports Tennis; as a simulation, is worse than Grand Slam Tennis. Game mechanics were thought to work with a traditional pad, and they were just adapted later to Wiimote and MotionPlus; compared to Grand Slam Tennis, it seems from another era.

Strike Vector delivers a hardcore multiplayer experience that's easy to learn but difficult to master.

Warlock 2: The Exiled is Warlock: Master of the Arcane with a new mode and tuning. If you have liked the previous game, you will love this sequel… but only if you accept paying for something similar in many ways.

A fun game, too bad there are so many microtransactions.

Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is a good turn-based strategy with a couple of good additions from the team of Nippon Ichi.

SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake is exactly the kind of game that we could expect from the Nickelodeon franchise. It's a 3D adventure with emphasis on its platforming action and some small puzzles, very old school as a tie-in and quite simplistic in its mechanics, it retains at least the enjoyable spirit of the animated series.

A French Ninja is an new character for a videogame, but Join Francois is really something special for this crazy game, with his incredible jump ability and his funny animations. To be rescued by the helicopter, he has to jump thru the roofs, escape from enemies and also from a lot of different obstacles. Urban Ninja is a really fun game, and the low price it's another reason to buy it.

Frenzy TPS with cool ideas and persistent map. Game sometimes lacks balance and graphics are not so great, but Hybrid is definitely a thrilling online experience.

Picross E is a cheap collection of 150 nonograms that fans will sure enjoy, but the lack of any extra or downloadable content makes the game feel a bit too much barebone.

Dead Island 2 is an adventure that in the end disappears without a trace. If you enjoyed the first one, you will probably enjoy this sequel as well; however, if you are looking for something more exciting and incisive you will necessarily have to look elsewhere. But it's nice to look at, somewhat relaxing in company, and despite the flaws it could be just the game you've been looking for.

Powered by a single developer, Banished is a unique city-builder game with a strong sandbox component. Deep and technically well done, is a recommended purchase for all fans of the genre.

Quite surprisingly, Eagle Flight is one of the most enjoyable games on PlayStation VR. With some additional content it could have been way better, like other virtual reality games released recently.

Minute of Islands is a fascinating work that takes the player on a journey of reflection on very delicate issues. The only sore point is the linearity of certain situations and the duration of the work.

A Story About My Uncle is a fast, evocative and surprisingly good first person platform.

Mobius Final Fantasy is a good RPG with card game elements, but it is not the true Final Fantasy that you've been waiting for.

Destiny 2: Beyond Light is the beginning of something great, the beginning of a probably radiant cycle that looks to the glories of the future by answering the dark questions of the past.

Metal Eden is a good game plagued by development problems. It can be a valid alternative to DOOM Eternal.

WWE 2K16 comes with a huge roster and brings back some of the stipulations missing from last year's iteration, but it still delivers a cumbersome, slow gameplay that you can love or hate.

More than a great adventure story, it is a fairy tale immersed in the magical realism of a world that resembles ours, but does not belong to us.

Squad Busters comes with colorful graphics, simple and fun gameplay, many elements to unlock among characters and maps, and finally a rather rich progression system, ready to entertain us for a long time.

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition for PC is a solid remake, with an intense single player campaign and an outstanding competitive multiplayer, but it's also a bit disappointing in terms of performances.

The Sims 4: At Work is one of the most innovative expansions ever created for the series.

Basically a modern scrolling beat'em up to play alone but even better with friends, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 is exceptionally faithful to the source material, being it comics or movies.

Always Sometimes Monsters is probably one of the best narrative driven games of the year. It talks about choices and morality, love and hate, life and death as few other games have done till now.

Strange and charming, World's End Club is really something unique inside the mobile market and a title that should appeal to anyone looking for something original on Apple Arcade, even if it has many flaws in its gameplay.

Hard Reset is a great game, a hardcore FPS that brings to the table some very nice ideas and tests your skills level after level. The gunplay works very well, with a huge sense of impact and a great number of different enemies to fight, and the graphics prove indie games can even compete with high budget titles.

Layton’s Mystery Journey is a convincing new chapter of the Level-5 franchise, with familiar mechanics and a wonderful value for the money. Too bad that the new characters aren't on the same level of the old ones, and the story is a bit dull and juvenile.

Tales of Arise: Beyond Dawn is too little too late. The expansion tells a somewhat predictable story amid tons of basic side-quests with basically no twists to the familiar gameplay: it's OK if you absolutely loved Arise cast and world building but otherwise skippable.

Freedom Wars Remastered brings back a PS Vita gem with much needed quality of life improvements but doesn't add much in terms of content to a game that for better or for worse feels and plays exactly like 10 years ago.

Pocket Mortys is a well done clone, packed with funny lines and characters, but also pretty repetitive and simplistic in its mechanics.

The Valiant is a good low-scale battle strategy game: despite a deep learning curve, the core experience works well and the satisfaction builds the more the campaign goes on.

Samurai Warriors 4-II introduces a new character and some minor changes, but it's still one of the best musou around.

Horses is an important video game that aims to scandalize by working within the uncomfortable space typical of provocative art. It has no intention of being harmless: it wants to unsettle you on every level. It is a reflection on the banality of evil, on the anarchy of power, and on how dehumanizing others pushes us to commit atrocious actions. While it evokes the horrors of twentieth-century totalitarian regimes, it is a highly contemporary work that stages mechanisms power still exploits to undermine our humanity. It is a video game that does not seek approval and has the courage to remind us how easy it still is, even today, to simply follow orders.

Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide delivers a fun, solid co-op experience, but the console version apparently suffers from a sometimes slow matchmaking and 30 fps graphics.

The Eternal Castle Remastered is an enjoiable tribute to Prince of Persia and Another World.

Worms Clan Wars is probably the best entry in the long lasting franchise, both visually and gameplay wise. The clan system might work or not in the long terms but it still adds depth to a stellar multiplayer mode, joined by a good amount of single player content.

Quotation forthcoming.

The time manipulation mechanics shines on a game with a simple story and a raw ending.

eFootball PES 2021 is still the best football simulation, but its Season Update isn't yet what you were waiting for.

Overwatch comes on Switch with too many compromises to keep veterans invested while new players will have some fun before inevitably flooding forums and complain about balancement.

LEGO Batman doesn't change the tested formula of the Lego saga, but it's still a challenging platform, replayable and with a with lot of content for Batman's fan. Unfortunately it lacks of a coop mode and a decent AI, so it failed to deliver a must have game.

Ice Age Village doesn't add anything new to the genre, but it comes with the same characters seen in the movies and is packed with tons of missions to complete.

SpellForce 3 is a truly enjoyable comeback, with solid mixed gameplay.

The Sims Mobile is a nice casual game, with lots of content and a simple, immediate gameplay.

Far Cry 6 introduces some interesting new elements, with a talking protagonist and some solid supporting characters, but unfortunately the villain nicely portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito appears too stereotyped to stand out and the structure with its regions and lieutenants turns out to be too traditional. Gameplay-wise the game is a mixed bag, with some good things but also several missed opportunities.

Simply, the best driving simulator ever released on console. Courageous and inspired.

Quotation forthcoming.

Another Code: Recollection is a remake of the two episodes of the saga released on Nintendo DS and Nintendo Wii. The progression of the two adventures has been slimmed down compared to the originals and the puzzles have been recreated from scratch, losing much of their originality. Ashley's adventures are entertaining, but the time and the flattening of the gameplay mortify the experience.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare - Mobilized provides a sharp rise in the difficulty level, forcing the player to face the missions with caution and losing the hustle and involvement trademark of the series. The controls could have been more immediate, while the graphics are still fluid and compelling. The online multiplayer works well.

Outriders is an honest and long-lived TPS like few others, surrounded by a small series of excellent ones and which makes brutality its school of life.

One of the most brutal fighting game is finally back on Xbox One. Killer Instinct is here with its latest installment, next gen visuals and the well-known ultra combo addicting style.

Not the revolution we expected, Epic Mickey is still a solid, entertaining and fun platform adventure with a gorgeous take on the Disney iconography. It's a shame for the dull camera and the frequent highs and lows in the gameplay area.

Lawless is a fun shooting gallery with smooth visuals, but its appeal is not gonna last long: for a free game, however, that’s fair enough.

Just Dance 2016 is more of the same, with a much more accessible multiplayer mode and a new subscription service that fans will love.

Monster Energy Supercross - The Official Videogame 6 is the best installment of the series, a product for old fans and rookies. The signs of aging, however, on the graphics engine and an impetuous AI still remain evident flaws which unfortunately lead to a substantial problem in the general rendering of the experience.

Chocobo’s Mystery Dungeon EVERY BUDDY! is misleading: it looks cute and charming but it can also be brutal and punishing.

Sonic Superstars is the new chapter of the series in 2.5, and is enriched with many new features.

It is clearly a simplification of the classic structure of the Capcom series, but Monster Hunter Now is not without depth and manages to be engaging even if the concept of the game is now somewhat derivative.

Star Ocean: First Departure R stays true to the original remake on PSP. and was modernised quite well despite some minor deficits. It's definitely worth playing if you're curious about Star Ocean's origins.
