While Team Ninja's first open-world game felt dated and same as other open-world games in some ways, incredibly successful gameplay, which the team has now mastered, and the fun-to-follow script and characters made me overlook these shortcomings.

EA Sports FC 24 has again taken advantage of being the only football game on the market. However, it's important not to overlook the areas where the game thinks about the player. Who knows, maybe one day, if we are a good boy, EA might even come up with a player-friendly soccer game.

Although the difficulty curve varies greatly, Darwin's Paradox has become one of the platform games I've enjoyed the most in recent years. Since there's no new MGS game on the horizon, I'd suggest giving this "Tactical Octopus Action" a chance.

A nice surprise with enjoyable battles, a well-presented story and good graphics.

The most innovative Nioh game to date, but if you’re already burned out on the formula from the first two games, it still might not hook you.

It's a good game that everyone who doesn't hate Jumspcare and loves psychological horror should give it a chance.

Rough Justice: '84 is a beautiful game with a nostalgic feel of '80s crime TV series, and with its variety of mini-games and intriguing storyline, putting your fate in the hands of dice never gets boring.

It seems that the producers decided to take a different path instead of making a sequel to Ash of Gods: Redemption. As a result, a nice hybrid of card game and turn-based strategy emerged.

With its atmosphere, the story it tells (and the one it leaves untold but makes you feel), its characters, puzzles, and many other details, this game carries the very DNA of the Little Nightmares series. Had the developers dared to step a bit further beyond safe waters, it could have been a much better game. Still, it gives us plenty of reasons to look to the future of the series with confidence.

System Shock is back after 30 years with a faithful remake. And thanks to its new graphics and modernized mechanics, it looks better than ever and plays more enjoyable than ever. It would have been great if they overhauled the combat system and brought it closer to today's standards.

Broken Sword fans can pick up this new version of the game with their eyes closed. For adventurers looking for an introduction to the series, there's no better place to start.

You'll laugh your eyes out, guaranteed. Ultra Deluxe has new endings, new content but keeps the same sense of humour and everything that made original game a hit.

Hundred Heroes is still a year away and while you wait for it you can play action-packed Rising and learn all about its world and the characters.

Blood on Crystal provides a fitting finale to Atomic Heart while also laying a foundation that gives us hope for the future of the series.

Sniper Elite delivers all the action you can expect from a game that has Sniper in its name. You'll love it especially if you enjoy invading other players games and hunting them.

One of the best examples of the real-time tactical stealth genre is now available on Xbox.

It's a highly enjoyable game, the kind of game you should have on hand. It never hurts to exercise your brain between long game sessions.

Black Myth Wukong offers fluid combat mechanics and an impressive atmosphere set in an epic mythological world. Despite some gameplay limitations, it manages to be one of the most engaging action games of the year.

The reimagined version offers a brand-new experience by providing a fresh, more modern perspective on the classic DQ7 rather than trying to replace it, and it positions itself among the series’ successful entries. I just wish the overly easy difficulty had been tuned a bit higher and the missing content had been included as well.

Loco Motive is one of the best options if you want to play a funny, sweet, old-school point and click adventure game full of charming characters.

If you like both rhythm and action games, you'll deeply love Hi-Fi Rush. If the content had been a bit fuller and the focus had been on the action where the game really shines, it would be a strong contestant for game of the year awards.

If you're a fan of classic shounen Digimon vibes, sixth-generation JRPGs, or monster-collecting games, then Time Stranger is definitely a game you shouldn't miss.

Although Milestone insistently claims that they 'rebuilt the game from the ground up,' this is still a Milestone Supercross game, aside from a few changes. This time, they've focused a bit too much on 'simulation' - whether you like that or not is up to you.

What we have in our hands is potentially the best Pokemon game in history. If the optimization issues had not undermined the enjoyment of the game, we might be talking about very different things. However, I have great hope that the game will improve in the future. If I had just one wish from Jirachi, it would be for Scarlet & Violet to run smoothly. Don't be in a hurry to purchase, but if performance issues are solved, as a PokeManiac, I would say don't miss this experience.

It's an almost flawless port. Don't ask whether "Can you play a tactical strategy game on a console?", just get it and play.

There's no doubt that Lightfall is not the best expansion, but it's far from being the worst, thankfully. If I had to formulate it, it's the arithmetic average of Beyond Light and The Witch Queen. We're used to Bungie going back and forth like a Mehter Company, which is exactly why I haven't given up hope for The Final Shape.

Mafia: The Old Country has a great story to tell. As it unfolds, it captivates you with the breathtaking beauty of Sicily, never breaking its cinematic flow and staying true to its course. In these days when we long for linear games, it shines like a sun rising over Messina.
