This expansion brings a phenomenal story set in a fun new environment and offers Trials that are truly worth your time and effort. When push comes to shove, however, Shadowbringers is mainly more of the same in a good way.- PlaySense

Dontnod once again delivers the goods, with a well-paced, thoroughly intriguing narrative. In the end, the result is perhaps a bit too repetitive to be truly great, and the same can be said about the game's animations. If you're into the story, though, you shouldn't be too bothered about this.- PlaySense

A spiritual successor to the excellent Until Dawn, Man of Medan is the promising first entry in a brand new series of interactive horror films. Once again, there are plenty of scares to be experienced and 'life or death' choices to be made, though technically the game just doesn't run smooth enough to be as good as the developer's magnum opus.- PlaySense

About time this game got a western release! It's a lot of fun too, though the game does start to show its age in both gameplay and graphics departments.

A great concept does not automatically make for a great videogame, especially when the execution is this lacklustre.

Deacon St. John is a pretty cool dude and we really appreciated the biker setting in a beautiful world filled to the brim with missions and adventure. The story is decent enough and the gameplay feels smooth enough to make sure you'll enjoy your time here.

The amount of content, the sensation of speed and the overall gameplay are alright in Dangerous Driving. The rest of the game isn't.

It is worth it because of the engaging gameplay and the steep challenge provided and because of the ability to play in coop. The level of difficulty will lead to a couple of unfair situations and graphically speaking this is a pretty lazy rehash of an older title. The game is pretty expensive too and load times are surprisingly very long. If you can accept these issues then you'll have a good time with this game regardless.

Fun, mindless entertainment with plenty of diverse missions which are a blast to play due to the large arsenal of weaponry at your disposal. Technically the game follows the rest of the franchise by which we mean that the game is still as messy as the other EDF games. Unstable frame rates, long load times, pretty much all the things you'd expect from an EDF game. There are some difficulty spikes as well which can lead to some frustration but overall this is a fine addition to the franchise.- PlaySense

Ubisoft delivers a barebones VR arena shooter set in space for 4 players. Although the technical execution is good, the lack of content and the disadvantage you have against PC players due to being limited to using the DualShock 4 controller only prevents it from being truly fun.

The Division 2 is larger and more expansive than its prequel and the focus has in part shifted to end game content which adds a lot to the overall package. Coop is a lot of fun and the game surprised us continuously with its wide variety of environments. Lots of content and solid gameplay make for a very competent title. The AI could use some TLC though because it tends to be extremely dense most of the time. The texture pop-in is another minor annoyance as is the somewhat clunky user interface. These minor issues notwithstanding, The Division 2 is a great game that has plenty to offer. Recommended.- PlaySense

A great fighter which is newbie friendly because of the DOA Quest addition. This mode provides one of the best tutorials we have ever seen in a brawler. DOA 6's action, audiovisual qualities and the overall execution are other standout features. The main complaint we have is DLC related. A playable character in story mode needs to be purchased so that you can use this character in other modes, which is crazy. The story is incoherent too but that is to be expected from a DOA game.

Massira tries to tell a story about how being a refugee feels. This could potentially make for a highly original and creative game, but unfortunately Massira is neither.

If you dig motocross though, you'll be hard pressed to find a better title at the moment.- PlaySense

Old school Real Time Strategy returns in the form of 8-Bit Armies and it absolutely delivers on the nostalgia factor. Simplistic visuals and gameplay really don't detract from the large amounts of fun to be had. Plenty of varied maps and multiple modes offer more than enough content. Online there aren't any competitors however, which makes you get bored relatively quickly. A fun snack, but that's about it.- PlaySense

New Dawn is a good entry for the franchise, but as expected it doesn't deliver a complete new Far Cry experience. Instead Ubisoft builds further on Far Cry 5’s destroyed world and added some great RPG elements in the progress of it. This makes the game fresh and enjoyable, but because of the reused world and mission structure it may feel repetitive at times. The AI is unfortunately still a miss and the open-world may feel empty while exploring. When playing this game in co-op it will reach its full potential.- PlaySense

Metro: Exodus is a post-apocalyptic masterpiece, more than worth your money and time. It's great on every level, from its beautiful graphics and expert audio design to its intriguing characters and absorbing world. Shame the story ends kind of abruptly though... But hey, you can't have everything. Must play.- PlaySense

An original puzzle game that creatively plays with dimensions while telling a good story at the same time. The setting is original, the voice acting is excellent and the puzzles are creatively designed. The game only lasts for about two hours though and the controls feel a bit nervous for some reason. You'll regularly and unwillingly drop items often too which is frustrating and hampers the overall pacing of the game.- PlaySense

Disney's magic returns in the latest iteration of Kingdom Hearts, an adventure that is well worth your time. The story is interesting enough. Graphics are beautifully realized and the special attacks are fantastic. At the same time the audio feels like it's a bit out of sync and the gameplay feels like a throwback to previous Kingdom Hearts games. If you're a fan of the franchise however, you'll love every minute.- PlaySense

Drowning tells a deeply personal story about depression. There are multiple endings for you to unlock and there are plenty of beautiful environments to admire accompanied by fantastic music. The major drawback is that Drowning -like many games in the walking simulator genre- is completely devoid of any other interaction with the world around you besides walking.- PlaySense

Futuregrind is a game that works really well because of its great controls, it's a steep challenge and it's overall a nice game. The variation in level goals is somewhat lacking and this game isn't really meant for long gaming sessions since you'll repeatedly have to try many of the same sections over and over. But, Futuregrind is the ideal companion for short bursts of gaming sessions.- PlaySense

A fun title which guarantees 8+ hours of entertainment for PlayStation VR owners. The sense of scale is great and the graphics are dark yet colorful and overall the world around you feels great. The game relies heavily on gesture control for even the most mundane actions which does become stale rather quickly and the story is nothing to write home about either. That being said, The Mage's Tale absolutely impressed us with good action and puzzle sequences. Be warned though; you will need to own motion controllers since the DualShock controller is not supported.- PlaySense

It's pretty clear where this game gets its inspiration from and with its intense gameplay, beautiful graphical effects and a steep learning curve this is a solid title. Shame that all bosses are nearly identical and that some screen tearing is present. Besides that, If you loved Hotline Miami, this is definitely a must play.- PlaySense

This game is brimming with potential which is never fully realized. Planet RIX-13 disappoints because it is a short game without a lot of challenge and the story never really takes off. The low price tag makes up for some of its shortcomings but in no way is this a must play. There's plenty of better games to spend your time and money on right now.- PlaySense

This episode is a bit slower than the last one but that does give you the opportunity to get to know the characters even better. The (free) prologue to this season is integrated nicely and the voice-acting is once again excellent. Definitely worth it in other words but some choices are forced upon you and we can't get around the ending where some strange choices are made by an adult character, which makes this episode lose a bit of its credibility.- PlaySense

The world is beautiful and mysterious and the great music definitely contributes to this nice setting but the game itself somewhat disappoints. There's plenty of technical issues, the letterboxing format blocks your view and the game feels segmented due to being split up into levels. You don't always know where you're going either. A missed opportunity.- PlaySense

In a genre that is well populated with similar titles, Scintillatron 4069 differentiates itself by offering specific goals and challenges which makes the game addictive and refreshing. Using powerups is extremely annoying though since they can seriously mess up the goals you're trying to accomplish. This combination makes for a somewhat schizophrenic experience. But, all in all a solid arcade shooter which can entertain you for a fair amount of time.- PlaySense

This episode continues the trend of being more interactive and the ability to react a bit more proactively. That's a good thing just like the increased amount of references to previous seasons and to the comics. Audiovisually it's in a fine shape and overall this is a fantastic episode, though not technically perfect.- PlaySense

Resident Evil 2 is a home run. There's just no other way to put it. By taking the heart and spirit of the 1998 original and combining it with the gameplay thrills of Resident Evil 4, Capcom has managed to outdo itself and in the process: make zombies scary once more. An early contender for Game of the Year.- PlaySense

A weird game in terms of concept but a good one nonetheless. If you grew up in the’90’s, there is a ton of references to that era. The length of the game is outstanding as well which makes for great value for money. The controls aren’t perfect all the time though and the music tracks can get a little bit repetitive but don’t let that stop you from purchasing what is a very original and fun game.- PlaySense

An excellent coop game that mostly excels in coop only because the single player experience forces you to fall back on less than helpful AI. The engine overall is outdated a bit but the progression system, the challenging opponents and the great gameplay provide plenty of entertainment value. Recommended.- PlaySense

Graphically this remaster definitely holds up to contemporary games and the option to choose between English or Japanese language is very welcome. The story is good and you’ll be entertained for days but be aware that the controls are pretty sluggish which will cause some frustration.- PlaySense

If you’re into this type of game, EDF 5 is the absolute pinnacle of the franchise thanks to its absurd humour, an excellent online multiplayer, an insane amount of content and the overall madness of never ending onscreen chaos. It is a niche game however and many people won’t understand what the fuss is about. Poor graphics, poor physics, the eternal grind for better gear and old school gameplay are an acquired taste in the case of EDF 5. Tread with caution.- PlaySense
