We're yet to see whether the whole experience will be on par with the rest of the series. So far, new Hitman offers the familiar style and atmosphere, large levels with numerous routes, but also a plethora of strange glitches and bugs.

Assetto Corsa Competizione is a real racing simulation, which is not something that can be said for most games. But as it is an advantage for serious driving fans, it is also a major flaw, as it will hardly attract new players. The biggest flaw of the game is it’s low and inconsistent frame rate, which might push off even the biggest fans if not dealt with in the near future.

To put it simply, Contraband Police is an FPS version of Papers, Please. As a ‘’border patrol sim’’, it offers a great experience and adds some interesting fresh elements to the genre, but is let down by its low replay value.

The Yellow Brick Games team consists of many experienced developers from renowned studios, and their first collaborative project reflects that. While the combat is a little bit janky, the world-building, characters, and overall design are excellent.

DoW III is trying to offer something to fans of both first and second installment in the series, but by implementing "half" and "in-between" solutions, Relic is stepping into a danger zone of satisfying none of them.

Sovereign Syndicate offers a refreshing departure from traditional fantasy RPGs, blending Greek mythology creatures with Victorian-era steampunk London. Thanks to its superb writing, expect an intriguing and intricate story with a lot of colourful characters and unexpected twists.

With the fifth edition of SE, Rebellion makes a few steps forward, as well as a few steps back, due to its great focus on sandbox level design, riddled with problems with arena-like level segments, and bad implementation of Invasion mode with weird design choices when the UI is in question.

You can almost smell the confines of the original platform from which Monster Hunter Stories emerged. A tiny, linear, and restricted 3DS title did not lose much of its likeability, though. With just a little bit of facelift, Stories oozes charm once more.

An excellent port of a beloved game that doesn’t feel like its age caught up with it. The Switch is a perfect home for this franchise and here’s hoping that Darksiders 2 will be ported as well.

Full Metal Rumble upgrades the Tiny Metal formula, making it an even deadlier time consumer than it ever was. It offers a great training for the mind while being entertaining at the same time. It is an echo of the Advance Wars legacy that delivers anything a fan would want, and so much more.

As a standalone title, Bravely Default II stands as a superb JRPG. But when it gets to be compared to the original, it sadly falls short. No matter how great its strengths are, they will always be remembered as being even greater before. Yet you should still not miss it if you are into the genre or if you loved the original, as it is a wonderful title no matter what you compare it to.

An awesome remaster and a taste of what's to come, yet lack of new content make this package something only true fans will enjoy to the fullest. But the way this prologue plays is more than a good reason to look forward for the next installment in the series.

With a sixth game in series from the same creator, one would expect leaps and bounds of improvements during the course of several years. Sadly, we are still waiting for a great wrestling game to hit our gaming systems. WWE 2K19 offers a lot of things, but most of them are just old stuff with minor improvements or returning additions due to fans outcry.

We Were Here Forever is the fourth instalment in a nicely progressing series that just continues to add more interesting and fun co-op puzzles. If you like escape rooms, co-op play and puzzles, grab this game right now.

MotoGP 19 is a step in a right direction, but sadly it`s not a giant leap, more like baby steps. And while hardcore fans will be delighted with the product, others will probably wait for next year.

Virtual recycling at its finest, FC does it yet again. This lowers the overall quality of the game and the company’s renown, each year without fail. It is still a pretty decent game, but it still doesn’t deserve a full price tag. It is time for a change or for the whistle to mark the end of the match.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage is an homage, a cover band of the early iterations of the series that tries as hard as it can to be respectful and bring the players back to the core of Assassin’s Creed. However, very basic combat and stealth mechanics, boring and forgettable story and clunky parkour mechanics are holding it back from being a truly great AC title. It does feel like an old Assassin’s Creed game, but it doesn’t play like one.

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!

WRC 10 is a treat for any rally fan. It still draws some minor flaws from its predecessors, but it provides a player with best WRC experience to date, with a better car physics, interesting career mode and possibility of creating your own rally team.

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered is a by-the-book remaster that successfully breathes new life into these 20-year-old masterpieces. The more I played, the more I craved, and I truly hope that this is just the first step in the revival of this beloved franchise.

Epic Mickey Rebrushed is another spectacular remaster, and we’ve had a few in recent history. It’s an amazing upgrade to the original, not just in the visuals department but also in its great adaptation for the modern consoles. If you want to play a dark and gritty(ish) Mickey adventure, Epic Mickey Rebrushed is for you.

Despite all the problems and controversy with micro transactions in the game (that I truly despise), underneath is an actual very good game of basketball. Improvements in the segments of gameplay, loading times, story quality are all delivered and all of that wanted me to play more and more of NBA2k19. But I’m still not paying for those extra coins.

This is a well thought and designed puzzler with next to chaotic controls, but loads of charm. Let us not forget the eerie atmosphere that is hard to forget, long after you finish playing. But the sense of accomplishment is its greatest treasure. It comes from a serious level of difficulty not everyone is ready for - so tread carefully.

Pushing out new content and cosmetics kept this game fresh and of unwavering quality all these years. If you are into Dragon Ball, this definitive next-gen edition of Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot is the way to go, no doubt about it.

Imperator: Rome is another showmanship of Paradox’s greed that is manifested through their DLC politics. In its core, it is a good game with some intuitive ideas that are resolved through a very interesting time period, but it falls short in almost all fields where its mechanics are clearly left unfinished for some DLCs to fulfil them.

Even after seven years, you’ll be hard pressed to find a game that better demonstrates the absolute top of the hack and slash genre.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong clearly reflects how good ideas and design age. They don’t. A graphical redesign but same at its core, this game may require a niche audience. However, when it finds it, it simply shines the brightest.

World of Goo 2 is a proper sequel. But it feels like some of the magic was lost in a 16-year-long stretch from the original. Undoubtedly a quirky, charming, and original game everyone should try out. However, the experiences will vastly vary based on your current mood and expectations.

Beautiful Desolation is a gorgeous game, with unique Afro-futuristic world waiting for you to explore it.

Sitting and playing a game where you sit and play a game by controlling a strange alien man through a hilarious set of unimaginable events, perfectly describes what this game is all about. If you are into random humour and story with a twist of laziness to well-designed gameplay, do try this game out. You will not be disappointed.

An addicting puzzle with some cute gore elements. But once the game loses its steam, there's not much to come back to.

Not only is it a frustrating game at its core, but Clustertruck also suffers from serious case of bugginess in which the player usually can’t manage to do what he’s trying. You don't need this kind of frustration in your life.

Knights of Honor II: Sovereign is a medieval real-time grand strategy that does something to perfection, but also fails to deliver in some other important aspects. While the game does feel fresh, it's also far too similar to its predecessor, that got released almost 20 years ago. As an older player, it feels good to play the game again, but it’s also disappointing that the studio didn't add many new features that were, and still are, missing.

LA Noire remaster hit us out of nowhere and brings a nice high definition version of the game to our consoles. Unfortunately, it doesn’t bring many fixes with it, nor does it expand on the huge city they’ve built.

If better hair physics is what you were hoping for when it comes to the new edition of FIFA – you’re in luck! The hair looks gorgeous now. But as for the other, more important things we need, it is the same as always. It takes a bit of improvement and a lot to pay for it.

Weird West was a surprise all in all. I expected a rudimentary Action RPG, and I got an immersive dark fantasy cowboy sim that I could not let go of. The story is very well written, and the choices do matter in this game. Besides some AI issues, the game runs very well and is a great debut from a studio with so many game developer veterans. The game is played the way you want to play it, either gun blazing or with a diplomatic/stealth approach. There is something for everyone, and we highly recommend it.

Crash once again shows why it is one of the best platformers and a cult classic, now for PC, Xbox and Switch users to enjoy in it.

Lost Ruins takes a perfect spin on the standard Metroidvania formula and adds some strategy into the mix. Beautiful visuals, great atmosphere and clever action design make this a game no fan of the genre should ever miss.

Clutchtime is a true hidden gem. It is a masterfully crafted roguelike deckbuilder, intertwining the tactical elements of basketball with that sweet addictive roguelike gameplay loop. It flourishes with remarkable card diversity and some great design, that will surely get all fans of deckbuilders, not only basketball, definitely hooked.

Uninspired story and incredibly simple gameplay keeps this years Assassin’s Creed from being what it could have been.

Super Mario Party goes back to its roots and delivers just like it should. The vast number of different modes, really prevents any to shine the brightest, but the entire game is a small step back that greatly leaps forward. It makes us only more excited for the next entry. Something we haven't felt with the Mario Party series in ages...

As a single-player game, Evil Dead: The Game fails in almost every way possible. But as a multiplayer experience, this is an authentic Evil Dead ride that no fan should ever miss. While it’s a bit rough on the edges with a few glitches that most fans would forgive, it is one of the best titles of the genre so far.

If you liked The New Order, you will definitely enjoy this game. It may not be too long and might not have much content to offer, but as a standalone prequel The Old Blood more than delivers on its promise.

A must-play for fans of the Deponia series and adventure game fans in general. The latest in the Deponia series is as witty and gorgeous as its predecessors, but just on the verge of stretching the series too thin.

Even though it's short for the asking price, Final Station tells a compelling story in an intriguing world. 

Even though the grappling system is slowed down and pre-fight sequences lack the familiar trash talking, UFC 2 is a great transition of sport into the digital realm. It is the closest we've been to feeling how it is to fight inside the octagon.

Dying Light 2 is a very interesting and specific experience. It disappoints with its “meh” story and weirdly boring characters, but where its shadow is darkest, there are also areas where it shines the brightest. Its gameplay, most notably parkour, are ridiculously fun, intuitive and open-ended, with great adrenaline segments in the form of the day-night cycle that provide almost completely different gameplay experiences that shall provide you with a lot of hours of fun for sure.

Farming Simulator 22 offers a full package when it comes to simulating farming. Many of the previous mechanics and gameplay is even better, but with the addition of seasons, the game is even more complete. Farm away!

Regarding tennis games, Top Spin 2K25 is still the king. However, selling it as a completely new title, even though it’s a glorified remaster of the remarkable Top Spin 4, is an absolute travesty. Top Spin 2K25’s gameplay is currently the best in the market, but its outdated graphics, lacklustre choice of players, and pretty simplistic career mode really damage the experience.

In Dragonball-esque fashion, CyberConnect2 and Arc System Works performed a fusion and managed to turn the tides! The majestic production values of Ufotable have been impressively mirrored, as this game delivers a multitude of breathtaking animations and of course – loads of flamboyancy! A solid battle system and plenty of content make this game a significant upgrade to the first. This one is for the fans.

If a football game with various fantasy races sounds like a great idea to you, then you can't go wrong with this game. With deep and rewarding systems, Blood Bowl 2 is a great starting point for newcomers to this series and a logical upgrade for fans of the previous installments.

Despite some bugs and technical issues at the launch, this game will offer you almost 100 hours of pure historical RPG joy.

Designed as "Ubisoft: A sandbox game", Primal fails to reach the bar set by its predecessors. The game world is vast and rich with details, but the game never actually motivates you to push the story mode to its conclusion.

Evil Within 2 brings the classic survival horror formula - to the modern times. Few are the games of today that will grant you that "barely made it" feeling you had playing Resident Evil ages ago. A near perfect, pure survival horror gem.

Days Gone PC port is a good and much better day 1 experience than Horizon Zero Dawn was. However, HZD has one leg up on Days Gone – it is fun. This cookie-cutter zombie game offers little innovation or fun experiences except in set pieces and a couple of quests. You will be fighting the same zombies and burning nests throughout the game, but hey, it looks and works really nice on PC.

Twelve Minutes is a welcoming innovation in the video games industry, with a fully fledged all-star cast that does the job masterfully. Sadly it possesses some drawbacks in the form of immense repetitiveness in the later segments, but it shines with its excellently written story and interesting design.

Team Ninja delivers yet another game inspired by the “soulslike” genre. While some of the narrative mechanics and world design feel obsolete, the characters and especially the action are stars of the show. Fights carry the weight of most of the game’s appeal, and if you can see through many of the design downsides, you will probably have an unforgettable action experience.

WarioWare: Get It Together offers a twist to the renowned wacky series of fast and tricky mini games. This time around, you will be controlling many of the well known characters the series has spawned over the years, with each and every single one of them being unique when it comes to the way you control them. Some aspects of the game seem redundant and misplaced, but the meat of the game still is as enjoyable and funny as the series has always been.

Motorfest is a great addition to The Crew franchise with some great changes and additions, providing players with one of the best arcade driving systems to date. However, with its lacklustre usage of a marvellous open world and weird design limitations, it certainly could be better. Despite these flaws, it is still one of the most exciting driving games.

Tiny Tina’s an average DM in this tabletop Borderlands spin-off. The story lacks a punch with unnecessary politics inserted, although the humour can sometimes still be pretty great. Combat is still great and fun, with a fantasy setting and few additions sprinkled on the familiar BL formula, but Wonderlands misses out on the potential to make a truly new experience that will differ from its very close cousin, condemning itself to be appealing to mostly Borderlands fans, which still poses a good game, but misses the chance to become a great one.

Beautiful artistic design and great atmosphere are sadly somewhat overshadowed by sloppy mechanics and unbalanced gameplay.

Necrobarista is a relatively short yet beautifully directed visual novel that tackles a couple of serious themes such as death and general parting with people. Although linear, it tends to tell its story with no holding back, whether you are going to like it or not. Even though the Switch version runs much more poorly compared to the previous PC release, this remains to be an intriguing story filled with interesting characters and great storytelling.

With a very high difficulty curve, Furi is not for everyone except for players who can endure its long, complex and amazing boss fights. It might feel empty between the fights, but it creates an incredibly gratifying feeling after each encounter.

A masterclass in cinematic world-building, REPLACED blends breathtaking pixel art with a profound existential narrative. By trapping an AI within a human body, it delivers a gripping commentary on identity and social decay. With its fluid combat and neon-drenched melancholy, it is a landmark achievement in indie storytelling.

There are JRPGs that break boundaries and experiment with crazy ideas. Ys is not that kind of game, but instead just focuses on delivering a great and complete experience with well designed known systems and cool characters. Monstrum Nox continues Adol’s story with brand new crazy adventures.

Ripout had amazing potential in its early access period as I’ve mentioned in my previous review. However, the 1.0 release label is just that, a label. The release feels more like a patch than fully realising the developer’s vision, which is pretty disappointing. The pet gun is still awesome, and there are more toys to play with, including a bunch of QOL improvements. However, it still feels like a patch rather than a full release. It still needs to ‘’cook’’.

Complex and challenging card game, but with some fundamental flaws and bad monetization system that basically killed the game even before it went out.

Even if you're not the fan of the 18 wheelers, do yourself a favor and try this game. Nothing can replicate that peculiar feeling of driving across the States at 4AM while your radio is tuned to "Road to hell".

Strayed Lights is a wonderful game similar to an arthouse film in its presentation. It is an interesting addition to the rhythm genre with its color-matching parry system, which makes the game unique. You can complete the whole game without attacking even once!

Rematch is an ode to football. It is a fun, adrenaline-filled experience that possesses a steep learning curve, but also provides a huge payoff to anyone who dives into its deep, yet simple systems. It suffers from a lack of content and not-so-small net code issues and bugs, but it is a refreshing take on the sport that many fans will appreciate and enjoy.

Armello is so gorgeous, it kept reminding us that there is no an actual physical board game like this even though it really deserves to be. The game successfully mixes several elements from other genres, telling story and making our imagination run wild.

Fae Farm simplifies farming to a point where you might not want to come back to the old ways of Animal Crossing and alike. It may be a different cup of tea altogether, but there’s just something satisfying in snappy and dynamic actions with zero wasted time. It may grow repetitive after a while and may not be awfully long, but surely is a refreshing title for the ever-growing genre of farming games.

Unruly Heroes is a classic platformer that borrows a lot from other renowned games, but still manages to give it its own magic touch.

Thrones of Britannia shifts usual pattern where storytelling is weakest part of Total War games to situation where it is it's best part in ToB. If AI and factions get upgrades, it might even turn out quite good.

This year, FIFA brings most of its changes in the shape of a new name for the franchise. In other aspects, it’s mostly the same old game with some additional flavors sprinkled around, unless you are really excited about the new mixed teams.

CoD MW 2 is a refreshing single-player experience, providing players with some of the best action-packed moments and great characters, but riddled with multiplayer balancing issues and extreme performance and technical problems. It still is CoD and is fun for anyone who finds its casual shooting gameplay compelling, but it plays safely and doesn’t present itself as something revolutionary for the franchise.

Shallow story aside, Shadow of the Tomb Raider has the best tomb exploration in the series, and that’s what it’s all about.

The horror in this game is reaching new levels of gore, and audio component is great, but unfortunately game fails at capitalising on some good, but unfinished story parts.

When you skip plethora of AAA games to spend your free time playing a small indie title, you know how good the experience is. Space Run Galaxy is just that - a simple, yet slick game, perfect little "time waster".

The Surge 2 is a solid proof that Deck 13 learns from their mistakes and that with every next game they level up their performance significantly.

Good game. But only that. Not for everyone, especially not for children and minors. Too much text will turn off some players. But excitement for every new case and hope that you will behead Robespierre will be enough to keep you until the end.

Endless Dungeon is a successor to the great Dungeon of the Endless, but it flops on so many levels. The idea is there, but the gameplay is very repetitive and gets stale very quickly into the game. The rogue-lite elements help, but the sudden difficulty spikes did not encourage me to continue playing. The singleplayer mode offers an abysmal experience, but there is fun to be found in a multiplayer session with your friends.

After turbulent end of the last year, EA managed to release a good game in UFC 3 without many scandals. The game itself is better than its predecessor, but it still lacks a way to connect with players new to this sport. New GOAT mode is a great innovation and adds a new twist to the known career mode. Fighting, even though it’s very good, still has problems, which are already annoying the players.

Man of Medan is the first entry in what should be a series of horror games based on urban legends in the Dark Pictures Anthology. It combines all the classic elements from choice and consequence adventures and puts them into an uneasy environment, where nobody of the main characters is safe. It has flaws in the terms of camera and exploration features, but it can be a very solid beginning to something new in the horror gaming genre.

No matter the bland and "I've seen this dozens of time" story, Satellite Reign is definitely Syndicate v2.0. Improved and enriched in every aspect, it’s a must have in your Steam library.

The cult classic that hasn't aged a day is incredibly fun to play even after all these years. Too bad that the developers didn't use this chance to polish the AI routine or give some units a redesign, making it hard to recommend the Redux edition to owners of the original game.

The third venture into the episodic Hitman might not be as good as his second adventure, but Marrakesh still offers amazing digital playground that will surely put your assassin skills to the test.

Even though unpolished, there’s a lot to enjoy in Outlaws. Sure, the game is plagued by some outstanding bugs and glitches, but when it works properly, it offers an interesting experience that does not heavily rely on the Jedi and the Force. It’s trying to do something new, fresh, and daring, and that is something worth praising it for.

Set in a dystopian post-apocalyptic world, Shardlight is another great point & click adventure game from Wadjet Eye that might not have the greatest graphics, but tells a grounded story of scary, but possible future of mankind.

Four years have passed since the last GT game in the franchise, and although this game stayed true to its roots and remains a true driving simulation, choices like reducing number of available vehicles, missing any kind of single player campaign (other than driving schools) and a lack of weather effect control in this day and age may have set this game to a bad start against its main competitors.

What it lacks in content Battlefront makes up with simple yet fun gameplay. This is your best Star Wars gaming fix you’ll find anywhere.

Dying Light Platinum Edition is the top shelf bundle for this game. It includes all DLCs whether they are cosmetic, or expansion based, so you can kill and run away from zombies as a stylish Viking. However, the non-discounted price is a bit steep. Dying Light has proven that it is a competent zombie survival FPS game, and we are extremely excited for the sequel.

The detective genre of adventure games is a nice sight to see. With its mechanics, tiny hints and very well hidden assistance features, it is a great game for new and experienced players alike.

In order to enjoy this game to the fullest, you’d have to be a teenager, still trying to find yourself while having a clear political view. Sounds terribly specific? No sweat. Loving adventures and rogue lite games should also prove useful when it comes to liking Road 96. It’s a good game, just not for everyone.

Ocean’s Heart is undoubtedly inspired by titles such as The Legend of Zelda’s The Minish Cap. Yet what it successfully re-establishes in terms of visuals and basic mechanics, it painfully lacks when it comes to the story, dialogues and gameplay depth. If you are looking to scratch that Zelda itch with nothing better on the horizon, Ocean’s Heart might prove to be a perfect candidate. But surely never forget – heart may sound like a lot but is never much without a soul.

Aliens: Dark Descent adds a hefty amount of ''Alien flavour'' to the well-established XCOM formula, making it a novel, fun, exciting and challenging experience. Even if you aren't an Alien fan, it is worth checking out if you're into team-based strategy games.

WarioWare: Move It! manages to be one of the most entertaining entries of the franchise yet, especially if you plan on playing it with friends. And yet, once you check out and master all of the mini-games, you will hardly ever return to play it again.

With its striking stop-motion-like visuals, rich folklore-inspired world, and atmospheric soundtrack, South of Midnight offers a unique and memorable journey. A slightly repetitive yet distinctive Southern Gothic action-adventure, it delivers a simple, satisfying, and a hauntingly beautiful exploration experience.
