    Warcraft Rumble is a superbly designed action RTS game which offers deep tactical experience, a massive single-player campaign with 75 unique missions and boss battles, PvP, and other content to enjoy for months. Unfortunately, it's also plagued by predatory monetization tactics that exploit human weakness in order to make you spend an absurd amount of money.

    Even though it brings nothing new when it comes to the traditional JRPG gameplay, The Cruel King and The Great hero blows away anyone in love with cute storytelling and intriguing fairytales. The only cruel thing is how charming the game is. Or gets to be, if you can overlook its slower pace.

    Crysis Remastered Trilogy works well on old-gen platforms and almost flawlessly on current-gen. I was not expecting it to run this well and have so many details and improvements on a PS4. Even though the first game of the series is a bit of a bore, the complete package is really good value and will fit your PS5 in this gaming drought we call 2021.

    Resident Evil again, but on a new platform. Even with the price and few hiccups, it is a full-on worth the price to have it on the go. A well-done port and an excellent addition to the Switch library of games this proves that the console is capable of so much.

    This is by far the best WWE game in the franchise. The controls, game mechanics and all game modes have received significant upgrades, which is exactly what the series needed. If you are a long time fan of the series but you are a bit sceptical because of some of its previous iterations, don't worry. WWE 2K22 has definitely put wrestling back on the map!

    Resident Evil Zero is one of the titles that tried experimenting with already good formulas, yet managed to get away with it and still be a great game. Not that lonely but still a strong survival horror experience, Resident Evil Zero is most probably the prettiest Resident Evil on the Switch that aged unbelievably well.

    Scars Above remind us how a high budget and piles of content don’t necessarily make a great game. Yet, simplicity and balance between all the elements may raise the fun factor to its limits. Initially unoriginal but more intriguing as you progress through the game, this one truly is a short but sweet experience that brings back "fun“ to the “interactive fun“ - something we don’t see on the market that often anymore.

    Riders Republic is a masterclass in world design and it is a truly surprising and fun experience for any extreme sports lover.

    Lost Ark is a competent MMOARPG that has visceral combat and interesting side systems. The end game is what this MMO is all about, but the levelling experience is streamlined and easy with beautifully directed set pieces and action scenes.

    Even though the game represents a standard Omega Force half-asset flip of their own first Attack on Titan game, it still delivers enough of new things. With plenty of options regarding your own character, the RPG-lite elements, and the way the player can interact and make bonds with other NPC characters makes it so this could be considered a fine continuation of the series. If you wanted to enjoy the story and characters from the AoT universe from your perspective as a unique character then this is a good option for you, just watch out for the abysmal camera and somewhat iffy movement controls.

    Haven is a fun mixture of visual novel storytelling, walking simulator exploration and just a dash of action-adventure. The main focus is on the couple and their story of survival on an alien planet. With that in mind, it's not a game for everyone, but it is a fun adventure to take.

    F1 2021 is one of the best F1 games to date, with a fun little story mode in the form of Braking Point, also presenting a great co-op driving career mode, and marking the return of the extremely detailed and fun My Team mode.

    Age of Calamity serves as a prequel to Breath of the Wild, which easily justifies dozens of over the top battles against hordes of enemies. It is fun to play and to watch, but as a prequel, it fails to properly deliver. Expectation: a cool and interesting story. Reality: a boring and uncreative one. The game is great fun, but where we all expected it to shine the most - it somehow managed to fail with zero excuses.

    Scarlet Nexus is a fun action RPG-lite that has a complex story and a bunch of unnecessary gaming mechanics that somehow work. If you like games like Astral Chain, you will not go wrong with Scarlet Nexus, especially as it’s being set up as a potential future franchise.

    Sounds like escaping the Matrix, but Game Freak finally jumped out of the three decades old formula and gave it a new groove. An open world, a more dynamic catching mechanic and a more involved trainer are just some of the new flavours. Drawbacks this time around come in the shape of empty and pretty lifeless environments as well as lower graphical quality and glitches, but they don’t take away much of the overall enjoyment. Yet they surely remain something that needs more work once this amazing turn in the franchise settles in. The roots have been planted. Now, all it needs is to grow. Pardon me – evolve!
