    Quake Remastered
    Quake finally gets the love it deserves after twenty-five years in the dark, with by far the most comprehensive remastered collection to date. Modernised without losing anything in the process, Night Dive have created something special by not only bringing the core experience back, but with all the expansions, new episodes, and a boatload of features that players can tune to their liking. This release takes an important yet aging technical milestone and turns it into an essential experience that is both worthy of a new audience and the embrace of old fans.

    King's Bounty II
    King's Bounty 2 offers up a large campaign full of deep, tactical battles and plenty of lore but is hamstrung by ropey presentation, sluggish controls, slow exploration and poorly-explained combat systems.

    Tormented Souls
    Tormented Souls is an excellent love letter to survival horror games of old. With that comes limited saving, dodgy voice acting and clunky combat but that doesn't detract enough from the exploration and puzzle solving to sour the experience. Fans of the genre absolutely must give this a try.

    RiMS Racing
    It's clear RiMS Racing has some good new ideas and a handling system that's greatly complimented by the DualSense controller. It's a pity the bikes and tracks on offer lack some variety. Repetition sets in with a lengthy career mode but it's clearly an enjoyable ride and customising bikes can be an engrossing, meticulous process. At times, the slim content can feel strung out but there's an impressive foundation to build upon.

    Orbibot
    Orbibot offers physics based puzzles whilst controlling a ball. Unfortunately the controls never feel right, making achieving what you're trying to do harder than figuring out what you have to do in the first place. Still, another easy platinum (or two).

    Aliens: Fireteam Elite
    Aliens Fireteam Elite is the quality shooter that Aliens fans have been wishing for for decades now. The story may feel a little disconnected from the film that inspired it but the action is great, it gets the details right and we're going to be playing it over and over for a long time.

    Barry the Bunny
    While seemingly built for trophy hunters, Barry the Bunny is a charming, well made, yet unremarkable 2D platforming adventure. The game is decently polished and plays well enough, but not to the point where it will leave a lasting impression.

    Spelunker HD Deluxe
    Spelunker HD Deluxe brings an awful lot to the table. Using the blueprint of an old favourite, Tozai Games have delivered dozens of levels with some modern visuals. It does look smarter and a little sharper but the old challenge remains. It controls reasonably well but the memory-heavy nature of the levels will put some players off. With few options available to tweak difficulty or add lives, you're left with an authentic, if divisive experience. Multiplayer does allow you to bring friends along for the ride too.

    Get Packed: Fully Loaded
    We've seen this style of game before but by stripping out any real need for strategy and thought and instead turning the game into a raucous smash and grab arcade experience, the developers have created an instant party game classic. Get Packed is the co-op removals game you never knew you needed.

    Despotism 3k
    As a punishing game-built on resource management and difficult choices, Despotism 3K won’t be for everyone. The reliance on trial-and-error choices contribute to consistent frustration. However, If you can break through this difficulty layer then you will find a unique and hilariously mean-spirited title that will keep you busy for hours.

    Akiba's Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed
    Akiba's Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed is a re-release of a ten year old portable title and it shows. Apart from being weak on a technical level the combat is basic, the story is lacking and the side quests are repetitive. Not a patch on the sequel, but major fans might get some joy out of it.

    Bone Marrow
    Bone Marrow is an RPG-flavoured take on the popular mobile game 2048. While it tries to update that game's mechanics, ultimately the new wrinkles to the gameplay don't improve it in any way and you aren't incentivised to play fairly against the AI at all.

    Ion Driver
    With only two tracks and a non-exaggerated game completion time of ten minutes, suggesting Ion Driver is a barebone experience would be an understatement. This initially attractive racer does nothing to further the futuristic racing genre, or do anything to make an impact beyond the nagging feeling of disappointment which permeates throughout. The experience is plagued by bugs, poor collision detection and far too many broken promises to count. Avoid.

    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.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Loopindex
    Loopindex is a fun little puzzle game. It's not massively long or hugely challenging. But it's just fine being what it is. Yes, the loop mechanic feels a bit underused, but there's plenty to get on with otherwise.

    Apple Slash
    Apple Slash is a basic top-down, maze-based hack and slasher set in a fantasy land but it's too short, simple and plainly presented to really be something we can recommend.

    Blightbound
    We're always up for some co-op brawling action and we love a good loot system and RPG mechanics. Unfortunately, Blightbound rather fumbles the ball when it comes to every element. There's fun to be had when it goes well but you feel as though you're fighting every aspect of the game to get to it.

    Cris Tales
    Cris Tales is an enjoyable, shorter than average JRPG with some interesting time travel mechanics. The visuals are fantastically stylised and the characters are likeable but the time travel mechanics don't quite go far enough to make it stand out.

    Freddy Spaghetti 2
    Freddy Spaghetti 2 is a poor sequel. It's a straightforward platinum and while it's not devoid of quality, it's just so average with it. If you've not played the first game, we'd recommend you play that instead.

    Batbarian: Testament of the Primordials
    Batbarian: Testament of the Primordials wears it's influences proudly and, at times, it pays an effective homage whilst building a blueprint of its own. The visuals look deliciously detailed and animated with plenty of life. It's accompanied with a wonderful soundtrack but I just don't quite enjoy playing it. There some clever puzzle-platforming involved but the large map is packed with screens of tricky jumps. It leads to a game lacking in momentum and frustrates me. It'll appeal to those wanting more of a challenge but it's not clicking for me.

    Fallen Knight
    Fallen Knight offers up some reasonably polished hack and slash action but would benefit from much tighter controls. While we appreciated the clever addition of a rogue-lite second campaign, the overall experience is just a bit too sluggish and frustrating for us to recommend the game but there is still some enjoyment to be had from it.

    Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX+
    Dariusburst: Another Chronicle EX+ doesn't feel like a new game but rather just a cut-down version of the previous one. As such, the mid-range price point doesn't feel like great value for money and given how the game doesn't cater to newcomers very well, the audience it will really appeal to will be better off sticking to its predecessor instead.

    F1 2021
    It hasn't moved far visually from last year's effort but the package F1 2021 is offering is substantial. Braking Point provides a daft narrative diversion that might offer new players a gateway into the sport. For the rest of us, career mode remains largely the same with plenty of time to be spent chasing the front of the grid. The handling feels consistent and the racing is compelling, although the AI does seem to lack a little pace. The DualSense offers some welcome additional feedback, although I did find initially the adaptive triggers off-putting.

    Urban Trial Tricky: Deluxe Edition
    Urban Trial Tricky is a decent motorcycle based, stunt heavy Trials clone and it can be a lot of fun. The child-friendly presentation is definitely at odds with the level of skill you'll need to make good progress though.

    Within the Blade
    Within the Blade is a great indie ninja game with a few rough edges. Just a few minor tweaks could elevate it, as it is in its current state it's a scrappy but likeable game.
    • 85 Metascore

    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.

    Graveyard Keeper: Game Of Crone
    The Game of Crone DLC is an enjoyable extension to the main game with helpful rewards if you haven't done everything already. If you've completed everything the most useful stuff arrives too late and although the story is entertaining enough it's not enough to drag you back.

    Graveyard Keeper
    Graveyard Keeper is an enjoyable, addictive experience. Without the DLCs keeping a decent supply of materials for all the building and crafting you need to do can be tedious, but when you unlock a new branch of industry or revenue stream the reward is high. Maintaining a graveyard has never been so much fun.

    Cotton Reboot!
    This reboot takes a classic shoot 'em up and reinvents it quite brilliantly. By upping the presentation to the max, it provides an exciting, modern version of the game without messing with the original's gameplay. For fans of the original, this is simply essential.

    DOOM Eternal
    Doom Eternal is one of the greatest FPS games of all time and this is no less true with the PS5 update. The various visual modes provide a more tailored experience to those wanting to pick between 4K or framerates, while the myriad of updates over the past year have continued to tweak and improve the core experience considerably. If you haven't played it yet, now is the perfect time to jump in.
