    Chivalry 2
    Chivalry 2 takes some cues to make the sword and shield combat feel a touch more accessible. I feel it's for the better with a fairly decent tutorial leading you right into the fighting. Whilst it can feel daunting, I've seen myself contributing to battles very quickly. The combat is deep with an importance on positioning and timing. It is slightly undermined by trying to keep the players together but, even if duels are harder to come by, the chaos of a full battlefield is hard to ignore. It's fascinating, fun and fluid.

    Sheepo
    Sheepo is a great Metroidvania with a novel twist. You don't directly engage in combat with anyone but bosses though in defeating them you gain the ability to shapeshift into their species. It's short, sweet and hard to master. Despite that, it's quite lovely.

    Door Kickers: Action Squad
    Door Kickers: Action Squad may look like just another retro-styled 2D shooter but the game's tactical gameplay really elevates it beyond the usual indie efforts.

    Shadow of the Colossus
    Bluepoint have done a fantastic job of remastering Shadow of the Colossus from the ground up. Taking down giants has never looked, sounded or felt better. Some niggling issues remain from the original such as the controls and pacing, however this does not take away from the sheer cinematic spectacle that more than makes up for it.

    Galacide
    Galacide's mix of shoot 'em up and puzzle mechanics works very well. The only problem is that it's just a bit short on content.

    Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide
    Warhammer: End Times – Vermintide is a neat, if almost too familiar, take on the Left 4 Dead formula. Bring some friends and there will be plenty for you to do and enjoy. With thirteen missions and plenty of loot to unlock this could be a firm favourite in the making. Especially for those waiting for Valve's zombie smasher to return.

    Pinball FX2 VR
    While no-one will be thrilled about having to buy their favourite tables again, the combination of Zen's excellent pinball know-how and VR is a winning one.

    Mothergunship
    Mothergunship has lots of action, a good sense of humour and the best gun customisation we've ever seen. The uninspired enemy design lets it down a tad but there's still a lot of fun to be had from this roguish FPS.

    Mother Russia Bleeds
    Mother Russia Bleeds does a great job of bringing the beat ’em up genre to modern consoles. It suffers from the old fashioned problem of repetition as these games always do but, if you can stomach the violence, it gets a lot right in terms of enemy and location variety.

    Horizon Shift '81
    It might be hard to sell the idea of a two-way Space Invaders clone in 2019 but Horizon Shift '81 offers some great shoot 'em up action and is easy to recommend.

    Trigger Witch
    Trigger Witch is a great mechanically sound dungeon crawler with lots and lots of guns. It's really quite good, even if the story is all sorts of nonsense. This PS5 update is essentially the same as that which released on PS4 in August, with added adaptive trigger support and a 120 Hz mode. It's still a proper laff.

    Maldita Castilla EX: Cursed Castilla
    Cursed Castilla manages to capture the feel of the old arcade games it references perfectly. Tough but fair gameplay is inviting enough to not scare away the less hardcore among us but there is enough content for more skilled players to chew on as well.

    Pankapu
    Pankapu is a decent platform game which plays it very traditional. It has a lovely art style and a lot of charm which goes a long way to make this game very enjoyable to play. Whilst I found the story elements of the game mostly missed the mark the platforming was more then enough to keep me engaged.

    Vertical Drop Heroes HD
    There is an awful lot going right in Vertical Drop Heroes HD. As a roguelike, it works really well and the gameplay loop is both rewarding and enjoyable. Vertical Drop Heroes HD is a game which is easy to recommend.

    Uncle Chop's Rocket Shop
    Uncle Chop’s Rocket Shop is a good job simulator, but the repair manual being a nightmare to navigate on console, as well as the clock still running as you read instructions is harsh. Download the manual on PC and you might stand a chance. Just a few quality of life improvements on console would help here. Once you’re up to speed with how to maintain modules, you’ll really start to enjoy this, but it’s harsh sledding until then.

    Kero Blaster
    Kero Blaster is a surprisingly enjoyable game to play despite looking retro to a fault. The graphics and excellent music work together perfectly to give the game a style not much seen nowadays. While this graphical style may not be to everyone’s liking, happily the core running and gunning is tight and it is this aspect which will keep you coming back for more.

    Until Dawn: Rush of Blood
    Until Dawn: Rush of Blood represents cheap thrills for people prepared to let go and buy into the scares. If you can do that, this is one of the best games out there for PSVR. A short and linear light gun game but spectacular, scary and oh so satisfying.

    WRC 10 The Official Game
    Kylotonn continues to improve with WRC 10 FIA World Rally Championship. It remains a great drive and the career mode, whilst a little stagnant, does offer you plenty to get on with. The anniversary content feels like a well-rounded mode that, although steep in difficulty, allows you to enjoy the series' more iconic vehicles. The DualSense is put to good use and it's nice to hear your co-driver has some more personality this time around. It's not taking large strides but remains a fantastic rally experience.

    The Escapists 2
    The Escapists 2 offers you the chance to try your hand at escaping prison. Turns out that's not as easy as it sounds, with lots of trial and error and failed attempts guaranteed. If you can get in the right mindset however you'll have plenty of fun figuring out multiple ways to break out of the ten levels, both in single player and multiplayer. A great sequel.

    Hardspace: Shipbreaker
    Hardspace Shipbuilder is a glorified recycling simulator with okay visuals, repetitive gameplay and a bleak setting but that doesn't stop it being our new go to chill out game. Its relaxing, compelling, satisfying and worryingly addictive.

    Sagebrush
    Sagebrush is an excellent story-based game with a great climax and payoff at the end. Perhaps a little short though. Recommended.

    Earth Defense Force 6
    It's EDF as we know and love it but instead of focusing on new experiences, Sandlot have just turned a miserable grind into a near-unbearable grind without bringing all that much new stuff to the table. If you're a diehard fan, you know what to expect but even for seasoned campaigners like us, it's not as much fun as it used to be.

    Remnant: From the Ashes - Subject 2923
    Subject 2923 adds a whole new area to Remnant: From the Ashes in its own mini-campaign. With that comes new environments, events, enemies, bosses, loot and story which is all you could ask for really at such a respectable price. If you just want more content then this DLC adds exactly that.

    Rogue Aces
    Rogue Aces takes an old formula and spins it into one of the most exciting and fun shoot 'em ups on PSN right now.
    • 81 Metascore

    Fight'N Rage
    Fight'N Rage is what you want from a retro-inspired game. It does what you'd expect if the game had been released thirty years ago but then adds a load of extra content in order to keep you interested. If you're a fan of scrolling beat 'em ups, this is as good as it gets.

    Exo One
    Exo One is a beautiful exploratory journey of a game. It isn’t massively deep but it is contemplative. The sci-fi influences are fairly clear to see, particularly 2001, but it’s none the worse for it. The speed run trophies are a little unrealistic to all but the most dedicated. We could’ve done with a level select too.

    RogueCube
    RogueCube is a better than average Ratalaika release with fun gameplay and four player local multiplayer. There's a few flaws, but when an indie dev can turn out something with this longevity with a small team, it's a good thing. Recommended.

    Deep Sky Derelicts: Definitive Edition
    Deep Sky Derelicts is a wonderful turn based card battler with RPG mechanics you’ll go back to again and again. Hidden dice throws are still a git though.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Sektori
    Sektori is a return to a style of twin-stick shooters that we don't see nearly enough of these days. Addictive, exciting and set to a banging soundtrack, this is what we've been missing. It's just let down by being a bit too tough for its own good
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    ECHO
    ECHO is a game with a compelling central idea, a top notch sci-fi plot and some excellent stealth mechanics. It also demands you understand its rules and play it at the pace it dictates. If you can either get on with, or get past, the plot you’ll experience some fantastic gameplay moments.

    The Surge: The Good, the Bad, and the Augmented
    As someone coming back to the game eighteen months after release I have to say, if A Walk in the Park made me look back on The Surge fondly, then The Good, The Bad And The Augmented reminded me of the less appealing aspects of the base game.
