    Starfield
    Starfield is a fantastic game from Bethesda. There is an awful lot to do and experience in the universe, the freedom you get is extraordinary, it looks stunning, the gameplay is top notch and we could go on and on. There are some bugs here and there, like the NPC's look a bit unnatural, but these are actually small blemishes on an otherwise very good and fun RPG. An absolute must have if you like action RPGs at all.

    RIDE 5
    RIDE 5 is more of the same, but it has all been updated. For example, it looks even nicer, you have plenty of (more) choice of bikes and tracks, and also the feeling on the bike is excellent. On the other hand, the AI is not very intelligent and the career mode fails to convince. Still points to consider in a game that in general is fine. Especially for fans of the series.

    Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
    FromSoftware returns with the Armored Core franchise and the sixth installment excels in almost every way. The customization is very deep, the game plays wonderfully, graphically it is a joy to look at, and so on. The game is very comprehensive which is worth multiple playthroughs and because it is all so well-crafted, this is by far the best Armored Core installment to date.

    Immortals of Aveum
    Immortals of Aveum is a successful first game from Ascendant Studios. Combining a shooter with magic makes for interesting gameplay, and much attention has been paid to the lore, environments and variety in combat. This picks up well and makes for an enjoyable experience. At the same time, the performance is not yet optimal due to a unstable framerate and some jokes feel a bit out of place. That being said, Immortals of Aveum has a fine adventure to offer that is worthwhile with some rough edges every now and then, but they don't get in the way of enjoying the game.

    Remnant II
    The gameplay is what really stands out. This is because you can be incredibly creative with the build you create, which can provide endless variety. In addition, the soundtrack is great, the bosses are good and there is plenty to do. All things that make the game worthwhile. At the same time, the story is not very interesting and there are technical issues that sometimes get in the way of enjoyment. A bit of a shame in an otherwise decent gaming experience.

    Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew
    With Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew, Mimimi Games tries to bring a new twist to the strategy genre by adding stealth. This makes for a slow, but exciting progression that provides great satisfaction when a plan succeeds. The game also has a high replay value, which justifies a purchase. However, there are also elements such as Crew Tales that are not really engaging and feel like filler content. In addition, loading on the PlayStation 5 can take a bit of time, which is not an issue on the PC.

    Atlas Fallen
    Atlas Fallen does several fun and interesting things, such as sand surfing and deepening combat with the Momentum meter. At the same time, the gameplay feels a bit stiff and graphically there are some issues that stand out. The battles can also get a bit monotonous, but at the same time the game really does offer everything you expect from an open world action-RPG, which is fine.

    Exoprimal
    Exoprimal's gameplay is truly excellent and visually we have nothing to complain about either. Still, it feels a bit limited in terms of content and although this will be expanded in time, it is a bit too sparse for now. We also do not appreciate the focus on microtransactions, considering it is a full-priced game. Finally, the audio is disappointing, which is a shame. Thus, the many positives also have a downside. Nevertheless, because of its fine gameplay, Exoprimal is worthwhile in its own right.

    Disney Illusion Island
    Disney Illusion Island is a pleasant surprise. The platform gameplay makes for a persistently engaging adventure, which is partly due to the game's fun characters and their abilities. The presentation is also very strong, where you can expect a lot of variety. It just could have been a bit more challenging now and then, but don't let that stop you from giving the game a chance.

    Pikmin 4
    Pikmin 4 is here and, like previous games, it is an incredibly fun game to play. There is plenty to explore and do in the world, the new additions such as new Pikmin, craft abilities and more, make it a fun adventure. It's a shame though that the full co-op experience is no longer present and the performance can't be called optimal, but those aren't points to make a purchase hinge on. A fine platformer that will certainly please fans, as well as newcomers.

    Crash Team Rumble
    A surprisingly fun platformer that excels with its variety of characters and levels. The gameplay also has enough depth making it an entertaining title to play. However, there are some balance issues and modes that are sparse, as well as some connection issues. A few things to consider, but that does not take away from the fact that in terms of gameplay it is an ideal game for quick battles to kill some time.

    Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE
    The elaborate plot keeps you playing in a game that manages to bring plenty of gameplay. The mini-games are fun, the missions you complete are engaging and it feels more than fine thanks to the audio-visual style, although you have to skip the English voice-acting. If you are a fan of the Danganronpa games, this is a purchase you can consider without hesitation.

    Aliens: Dark Descent
    The in-depth gameplay of Aliens: Dark Descent surprises and also has good effects, making it a pleasure to play through the game. Add beautiful graphics and a fun story, and the game has everything to make it highly recommended. You do have to take into account that the controls don't always feel convenient and that building your squad could have been a bit more extensive. In the context of the bigger picture, however, these are issues that should not stop you from giving the game a chance.

    MotoGP 23
    Motorcycle enthusiasts take note, with MotoGP 23 we are replaying the most important motorcycle championship. This in a traditional way similar to previous parts. The AI has improved and the addition of sprint races and dynamic weather, as well as LiveGP does the game justice. Yet we also have to deal with a new accessibility system that is not well balanced, the game can crash and the AI is just a little too good making it unrealistic. That being said, MotoGP 23 offers a lot of content to enjoy.

    Park Beyond
    Creating attractions that defy gravity gives Park Beyond a unique twist. This provides just that extra step in this area, setting the game apart from similar titles. In the process, there is also plenty to do and experience, which will keep you going for a long time. Were it not that the game on the PlayStation 5 has too cumbersome controls, is not polished enough and has the necessary bugs, which can get on your nerves a bit. Not a very bad game, but it could have been so much better.

    Final Fantasy XVI
    Final Fantasy XVI is the new pinnacle in the long-running series, which does a top-notch job in almost all areas. The intriguing story is captivating from start to finish. The gameplay is delightful thanks to the smooth action, and exploring Valisthea is a pleasure. Then there are the fantastic boss fights, the wonderful soundtrack, the spectacle. Too much to mention. Square Enix has thought of everything and that makes Final Fantasy XVI a game you should buy.

    The Lord of the Rings - Gollum
    There are fun things to do with Gollum in a game by itself, but everything failed with The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. The controls do not feel right, the level design is outdated, the music does not match situations, visually it is very inconsistent and we could go on and on. Better is just the short conclusion: avoid this game.

    F1 23
    F1 23 is back and compared to F1 22 it offers a lot more. F1 Life has been exchanged for a more sensible F1 World that is full of activities. Braking Point is back, although it's full of irritating characters and otherwise the gameplay is a lot better thanks to tweaks and the addition of Precision Drive, which gives players the option to set a much more refined control scheme in regard to direct input. At the same time, we see little innovation in the career mode and the animations of the drivers could use a major upgrade. Other than that, a fine racer.

    System Shock
    The remake of System Shock has been a long time coming, but the result is definitely worth it. A technically solid achievement, the story is intriguing and the setting is brought out fantastically. In fact, almost everything is fine with this title, were it not for the fact that it has a very high entry threshold. It is oldschool game design and that is not something we see much of today. Also, the Cyberspace fragments are not that engaging, but these are two blemishes on an otherwise refined game.

    Diablo IV
    Diablo IV effortlessly combines the best that the series has to offer. Including decades of refinement to it's successful formula, the freedom to endlessly experiment with your builds and loads of varied content. It’s visually stunning and it sounds amazing. Diablo IV exceeds our expectations, delivers on the hype and has us tight in it’s addictive and demonic grip.

    Street Fighter 6
    Capcom delivers a delightful fighting game with Street Fighter 6. The gameplay is top notch, the presentation is excellent, the game is well-stocked with modes, the roster is extensive, the online experience is flawless and we could go on and on. Every self-respecting gamer and fighting game enthusiast should get Street Fighter 6.

    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
    We had to wait 6 years for it, but it will be rewarded. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is bigger, better, more fun, more varied and more exciting than its predecessor. The game features gorgeous music, huge variety in gameplay and creative new abilities that open up many new possibilities. In terms of performance, the age of the handheld does begin to take its toll, for example, the performance is not optimal. In addition, the dungeons are not that special, but that is the only thing to note about an otherwise sublime game. In short: everyone who owns a Nintendo Switch must buy this game.

    Dead Space
    Isaac Clarke's original adventure is back in a new format, which has more depth in story and freedom in terms of gameplay. As a result, the game is recognizable, yet not the same which makes for a nice result. The game also has impressive graphics and the audio is unnervingly strong. That the game has some minor flaws we take for granted, because this horror adventure is recommended to everyone.

    SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake
    This game builds on the foundation of Battle for Bikini Bottom, so don't expect much innovation or novelty. However, the gameplay in itself is totally fine thanks to good controls, varied levels and solid presentation. Do take into account that it is a fairly easy game and that the game has some technical flaws, in addition, it can be a bit monotonous at times.

    We Were Here Forever
    The atmosphere in We Were Here Forever is excellent and this is once again evident thanks to the varied environments, challenging puzzles and the decent amount of content. Still, the game feels a bit stretched at times and the story remains vague, but thankfully that doesn't limit the overall co-op fun. If you really liked the previous games, then this is a no brainer.

    Redfall
    Redfall brings a pretty nice visual style and the setting is also very strong in concept, complemented by a good atmosphere. But that's where it stops in terms of good news. Indeed, in execution, the setting is somewhat dull and more problematic are the many technical and graphical problems. The gameplay in itself is also uninspired, never challenging and has somewhat an identity crisis. In the process, the unique skills of the characters hardly show up as meaningful contributions. All in all, Redfall is a huge disappointment plagued by a host of technical shortcomings. Very unfortunate.

    EA Sports PGA Tour
    EA is back with a golf game and they don't hit a hole in one right away, but they do come off well. The game mainly stands out for its beautiful courses and smooth gameplay, which can provide hours of fun via the extensive career. The presentation of the sport, on the other hand, is a bit thin and visually the animations are a bit disappointing. Otherwise, the game has many small improvements to make. Nevertheless, it is a decent golf game that will entertain fans of the sport.

    Minecraft Legends
    Minecraft Legends is a fine strategy game that will provide plenty of entertainment for young and old alike. The gameplay is fine and that goes also for the co-op feature, which allows you to experience everything with others as well. Moreover, there is no shortage of humour. At the same time, we should note that while the gameplay is fine in itself, it feels very superficial and in the long run it gets a bit repetitive. Things to keep in mind.

    Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
    The sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is here and Respawn Entertainment does it again. Delivering an excellent Star Wars game that feels grander than its predecessor. This is in the locations you visit, but also the greater variety of gameplay and all that goes with it. Technically, however, it is not optimal yet with the necessary pop-in and the somewhat shaky frame rate in performance mode. Apart from that, the game is simply highly recommended.

    Advance Wars 1 + 2: Re-Boot Camp
    Advance Wars' tactical gameplay proves timeless. Twenty years after the release of the second game, playing both games is still enjoyable. What's more, you get a lot of content, allowing you dozens of hours ahead, and all of that is complimented by a delightful soundtrack and fantastic gameplay. Visually, the new 3D concept does not come across completely perfect and the challenge can be a bit trial and error, but these are points you can certainly live with thanks to the extremely potent overall package that every fan of the franchise should have. Newcomer and up for strategic titles? Even then it's a no brainer.
