Ninja Gaiden 4 is the best action game ever.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A dares to try something new, but its flaws prevent the otherwise good ideas from reaching their full potential.

As a sequel and role-playing game, it's a disappointment, but if you ignore the big name, you get an exciting crime story with good characters and a lot of atmosphere - and that deserves respect.

An almost perfect experience of a very special kind.

While there's undoubtedly some co-op fun, the charm of the original series is lost. With few new ideas in enemy design and puzzles that are far too easy, this installment feels more like a poor copy.

Agatha Christie – Death on the Nile is a successful adaptation of the classic novel from the 1930s. It respects the source material without being an exact copy while also adding some fun twists, such as a time leap into the 70s. Definitely worth a try for fans of detective adventures, at least if one doesn't mind the minor technical issues.

Battlefield is back with All-Time-Favorite game modes, balanced classes, and good maps.

Baby Steps knows what its fans value, but doesn't jump too high. It brings new ideas to the genre, but its mechanics fall short of other titles.

Top sequel that surpasses its predecessor in (almost) every respect.

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds impresses above all with its diverse cross-world mechanics. However, some of the races are somewhat overly complex and require some getting used to. Still, it's a fun racer.

In terms of content and gameplay, there's pretty little to criticize about Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2. Both games perform well on the Nintendo Switch, and especially on the Nintendo Switch 2. However, to call them remasters or even remakes would be an exaggeration. They're essentially optimized ports. But is that really so bad if the gameplay is still fun? Well, considering the price, it's a bit. Charging almost €70 for games that are 15 or 18 years old, respectively, and offer hardly any notable innovations, is a bit outrageous. If you already own Super Mario Galaxy through the 3D All-Stars Collection, you don't really need to buy this version again. There's simply too little new to offer. And visually, the 3D All-Stars Galaxy still looks pretty good. For Super Mario Galaxy 2, however, you have no other alternative besides the Wii version. If you're not familiar with either game yet, this bundle is a great way to catch up. Even though the price remains controversial, the decision is ultimately yours.

You have to see this amazing open world! Ghost of Yotei is an absolute PS5 treat and scores with breathtaking sword fights and beautiful landscapes. Only a few technical issues cloud the picture. Sucker Punch has again developed an amazing action adventure.

Silent Hill f impresses with its psychological horror and the sense of unknowing that doesn't disappear even after reaching the first ending. The combat system is just as enjoyable as the horror.

There are only a few new features, but the game still feels good - but if you're not exactly looking for the new Live Career or FUT, you can certainly wait a bit longer before buying.

Dying Light: The Beast isn't exactly brimming with innovation. Rather, it delivers a whole series of small improvements and expansions appropriate to the story. What ultimately sets this zombie adventure apart from Dying Light 2, however, is its straightforwardness and significantly stronger focus on the series' core strengths. Fast-paced parkour, brutal action, and, last but not least, the game world, both beautiful and dynamic, characterize the experience. While The Beast is a bit unwieldy and fiddly, overall the "little" Dying Light is convincing. Both newcomers and seasoned players will feel at home in The Beast. We definitely recommend it.

Atmospheric story expansion set in Rome, which only tells a short subplot and offers little new apart from a few puzzles.

Ultimately, Borderlands 4 gets the crucial things right that you would expect from a Borderlands game. It's a loot shooter, and the looting and shooting works so well that we don't want to stop playing. Shooting tons of weapons at tons of enemies and collecting tons of loot has always been the DNA of Borderlands. It's a fun loop that still hasn't gotten old after 16 years and has once again been perfectly implemented in Borderlands 4.

It's not perfect, but it doesn't need to be. The small development team from Australia has done a great job and, after its mega-sales success, has absolutely no reason to worry about its future. And no matter how much we cursed while playing, we know for sure that we'll be sitting in front of the PC again tonight and immersing ourselves in the world of Pharloom once again.

Everybody's Golf is a nice pastime for the next train ride, while the television is on, or to avoid conversations at family gatherings.

Cronos: The New Dawn captivates with its atmospheric atmosphere, deliberate use of light and darkness, and terrifying enemy designs. However, the intense action significantly diminishes the horror experience.

Hell is Us impresses with its symbolism, its dark world, and its free exploration, but it still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of optimization and enemy design.

A solid and (hopefully) definitive remake of an action classic that can't hide its age.

Helldivers can also show off all its strengths on the Xbox - that's how it should be.

Cute, fun, and now even smoother: Kirby has made the jump to the Switch 2 very well.

A loving remake of an absolute classic, tailor-made for everyone who loved it back in the day. For newcomers, this means they'll have to get used to many quirks, but the nostalgia trip is rewarding for both parties: It contains moments that have made gaming history.

A nostalgic remake of the popular original, but one that deserved more detail in some places.

An enchanting adventure that lacks nothing except a little more playtime.

With its charming pixelated look and a great sound design, Discounty is a welcome change from the many farming sims.
