    An intriguing and at times exceptionally funny tale coupled with excellent gameplay makes for a great gaming experience. Thus it's not at all difficult to overlook the fact that Danganronpa V3 never really looks or feels like a current gen game.

    With an engaging story, interesting characters and entertaining turn-based gameplay, Fantasian: Neo Dimension certainly manages to be worthwhile. Moreover, it also looks impressive although the camera wants to be a bit annoying at times. In addition, not every side mission is equally interesting, but you can easily get over that when you consider what the overall package has to offer. Lover of JRPGs? Then you're in the right place with this title.

    This remake of the eponymous original title does unique things by presenting you with different stories that keep you enthralled. Audiovisually, it's also a great experience to have, but it does make the RPG gameplay feel a bit out of place, since everything is laid out for you from A to Z. This also makes the replayability low, while the overall experience actually leaves you wanting more. Nevertheless, a solid remake of a particularly unique game.

    Sea of Thieves on the PlayStation 5 is a game that absolutely holds its own. Playing especially a crew is incredibly fun and there is plenty to do and explore. You also get plenty of customization options and the combat is very cool, although it does feel a bit stiff. Too bad is the graphical pop-in and the somewhat repetitive structure of missions, but if you look past that, a wonderful adventure awaits you.

    At last, the franchise travels to Japan, and with Assassin's Creed: Shadows, Ubisoft presents us with a captivating adventure that excels particularly because of its two playable characters. The gameplay is mostly more of the same, supplemented with some new elements that make it feel very familiar. At the same time, the pacing is not always great and side characters could have received more attention. Nevertheless, fans of the franchise will again be able to lose themselves completely in an adventure characterized by a beautiful world to explore and somewhat fresh gameplay.

    A great finale to a series that wasn't always as convincing as it should be, this sixth episode combines everything that made the Hitman games great and puts Agent 47 back on the map.

    Tearaway truly comes into its own on PlayStation 4. It's still an amazing adventure that - in this edition - uses the abilities of the Dualshock 4 in very interesting ways.

    The progression system is a bit off, but if you're willing to overlook that, you'll find the same blend of fun content and trial & error gameplay that the Trackmania series is known for.

    The First Tree hits and misses; hits in terms of story and soundtrack, misses as far as the clumsy controls, useless puzzles and messy technical aspects are concerned.

    Hunt: Showdown's unique horror-infused mix of PvE and PvP will frustrate you... but more and often than not it will also leave you with one hell of a story to tell.

    Dontnod outclasses its former self with the best episode of Life is Strange yet. You'll be thrown on an emotional rollercoaster that won't leave your head anytime soon. On to the next!

    What Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio touches turns into success, because even a spin-off that is absurd on paper manages to be excellent again. The combat is fantastic, there is plenty to explore and the story manages to captivate, thanks in part to good humor. You really are a pirate and that is incredibly fun. In short, praise for this new game, but if we have to be critical: graphically it could be better and there are still some minor bugs in the combat, but do not let that stop you.

    A surprisingly superb PC port, Cities: Skylines nevertheless doesn't include all DLC, which makes the otherwise great package feel somewhat incomplete.

    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.

    After the hilarious and hectic insanity that was part 1, its sequel is even grander, more complete and provides even more entertainment. Gameplay remains as chaotic as ever but the additional amount of content makes sure it stays fresh for quite a while. Playing with some friends online is definitely the preferred way of playing Overcooked 2 but even when you're playing solo this game is still a blast.

    Well, what do you know? Vehicles do make an excellent addition to an already great franchise.

    If you've played the previous episodes, buying this one should be a no-brainer. If you haven't, then what are you waiting for? This series is more than worth every dollar you spend on it.

    It's a bit chaotic and the visuals won't win any awards in the near future, but if you don't mind these things, Helldivers turns out to be a pretty enjoyable top-down shooter with some strategy elements thrown in for good measure.

    The episode's slow opening sequences are a bit of a disappointment after last episode's cliffhanger, though Life Is Strange quickly picks up again to once more build towards an admirable climax. The episode's length is another plus, though the awkward dialogue somewhat detracts from the experience.

    Another interesting story, supported by believable characters and excellent voice-acting. It’s a shame the graphics aren’t always up to par. The current-gen optimalization also needs some improvement.

    Thou shalt not touch Naked Snake!!! No, seriously, the touchscreen features in this game are terrible. Other than that, this collection is perfectly recommendable to gamers who don't own the PS3 edition. We would, however, like to know why Peace Walker wasn't included into the package.

    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.

    This first episode introduces us to two new characters and a brand new story which feels like a breath of fresh air. It grabs you by the throat and you'll keep playing until you see the end of it which promises good things for episodes to come. DontNod nails the way they portray human behavior in its characters, the bond between brothers and an otherwise riveting narrative.

    Gran Turismo 6 is an improvement over its predecessor. The career mode has received a better structure, the physics are more realistic, the loading times are shorter, etc. It's everything you could expect from a Gran Turismo game, including a severely incompetent AI and disappointing damage mechanics.

    Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO does and offers exactly what you expect from the game. A huge roster of playable characters, accessible gameplay, fine combat, stunning presentation and we could go on and on. As a fan of the franchise, you will be able to have fun with this again for a long time and if we have to be critical, the lack of certain tracks in the game is a bit of a shame and there could have been more “what if” scenarios in the game. But that's nitpicking, because as a total package this stands as a house!

    Fate/Samurai Remnant is a worthy addition to the series that excels in a engaging story with entertaining combat. At the same time, the game feels a bit outdated due to some mediocre level design and limited graphical splendor. These are some minor observations regarding the experience that is otherwise fine, especially for fans of the series.

    This story needs to be experienced and by adding new puzzles and a character we haven't seen before, Catherine even becomes attractive to people who have already played a previous iteration of the game. In other words: this girl is still very much worth your time.

    SnowRunner improves upon its predecessor in every way. The game offers beautiful maps filled to the brim with content, as well as deep, engaging gameplay that will keep you playing for a long time to come. The multiplayer options form the cherry on top of this already delicious cake.

    Worth the wait, Final Fantasy XV turns out to be the anti-Duke Nukem Forever, in that it actually delivers on most - if not all - of its promises.

    Any fan of Marvel can get Midnight Suns without a doubt. Its many references to the MCU, well-written characters and in-depth gameplay mechanics make it a pleasure to play. The game is also packed with content, so you won't get bored easily. It is unfortunate, however, that it is not very strong graphically, but that should not be a reason to pass up the game. Recommended.
