    Killing Floor 3
    Killing Floor 3 offers enough new elements to make the gameplay more engaging. This makes the character classes stand out more clearly, each limited to four weapons, with customizable gear, extensive skill trees, and ultimate abilities. However, Tripwire Interactive still needs to refine the movement mechanics, especially the smoothness of enemy animations, their interactions with players, and the sliding mechanic.

    Death Stranding 2: On The Beach
    Death Stranding 2: On The Beach can only be compared to Death Stranding itself. The melancholic journey of ropes has evolved into a action-packed adventure of sticks. In their quest to enhance every aspect of the experience, Kojima and his team went so far as to improve things we didn't even know needed improving. While DS2 is indeed a wonderful evolution of the first game's ideas, it ultimately became something more than just an evolution, it plays in a league of its own.

    The Alters
    The Alters is a masterful evolution of 11 bit studios’ signature grim survival formula. Instead of pushing players into abstract moral quandaries, it offers something more personal: a sci-fi tale of regret and self-reconciliation. Stranded on a deadly planet, lone survivor Jan Dolski creates alternate versions of himself — each shaped by paths not taken. These “Alters” are not clones but fully realized personalities, forcing Jan to confront his own failings while managing survival. Beneath its familiar gameplay loop lies a deeply human story about identity, missed chances, and emotional repair. This is survival — not of the body, but of the soul.

    DOOM: The Dark Ages
    The attempt to turn Doom Slayer into more of a tank has resulted in action that's more focused on the main character. Successfully deflecting attacks gives an incredible feeling of inner satisfaction and balance. DOOM: The Dark Ages has its rhythm, which allows new players to gradually adjust to the increasing verticality and speed of gameplay found in DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal.

    Lost Records: Bloom & Rage Tape 2
    The story in Tape 2 picks up the pace earlier. However, this is achieved mainly thanks to its compactness, which unfortunately reflects negatively in the number of repeated video recordings, locations, and the variety of objects to explore. Certain moments highlight the beauty of relationships, but they fail to meaningfully develop the mystical aspect, which hardly goes beyond being a catalyst for emotions.

    South of Midnight
    The painted style and animations of South of Midnight are undeniably the most striking aspects of the game. Unfortunately, it suffers from the developers' clear focus on visuals and music. Well-designed boss fights can't save the game from repetitive arena encounters and a lack of a real sense of progression. The vibrant and melodic soundtrack slightly enhances some repetitive elements but doesn't fix them.

    Split Fiction
    You won't find a more imaginative cooperative game like Split Fiction. It’s a crown jewel of Hazelight Studios' portfolio, boasting immense creativity and love put into every single set piece, mini-game, or location.

    Avowed
    Avowed has relatively few moving parts, but they are all in place and work harmoniously. Of course, it shouldn’t be compared to the monstrous Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 or even Bethesda’s games. Avowed falls into the same weight class as The Outer Worlds, crafted several levels higher in quality.

    Monster Hunter Wilds
    Monster Hunter Wilds takes the franchise to new heights with a vast open world, dynamic weather, and a stronger narrative. Featuring improved combat, mount-based fights, and deep multiplayer mechanics, it offers both accessibility and challenge. While some technical issues persist, Capcom delivers an immersive and evolving hunting experience.

    Wanderstop
    Wanderstop is a true work of video game art, seamlessly blending storytelling with immersive mechanics. At its core, it’s a narrative-driven tea-making simulator, where brewing tea becomes a ritual of self-discovery, healing, and reflection. Tea-making in Wanderstop is an intricate process, from harvesting leaves and growing fruits to brewing unique blends. The surrounding environment is vast, encouraging exploration and self-reflection. Instead of combat, players engage in maintaining order—sweeping leaves, pruning roots, and discovering hidden treasures. With Ghibli-inspired aesthetics, a breathtaking soundtrack by C418, and a deeply resonant story, Wanderstop offers a uniquely introspective experience. It’s not just a game about making tea — it’s about making peace with oneself.
