Congratulations to Codemasters for succeeding to deliver its best F1 simulator so far and one of the most integrated F1 experiences we have ever witnessed. It certainly raises the bar for the games of the genre to come.

Housemarque's first attempt at something bigger was an almost complete success. If you are a fan of roguelites you ought to try Returnal.

Mimimi Games delivers a stellar benchmark for the titles to come both in terms of gameplay cohesion and storytelling in the Far West. Brilliant map design, character synergies and a long-term support plan promise to keep you engaged for more than the initial 25 hours to completion. Make sure to check it out. Probably the RTS of 2020.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is a very good choice for anyone who wants a fast-paced action game with plenty of exploration and platforming elements. It's not perfect, but it's fun and perfectly capable of keeping you interested in for the 9-10 hours or so that it lasts.

Respawn combined their prowess in the FPS genre with the good parts of the first Titanfall, greatly improved upon them and released a monumental online shooter, re-defining the genre yet again. The non-stop action of the multiplayer matches is unparalleled, while the Campaign is cinematic, stirs emotion and the only downside is its short duration. Lest we forget, all future multiplayer maps will be free for everyone, keeping the community unified and not splitting it, like we were used to with all the Season Passes that came before.

An excellent Metroidvania game, that aptly combines the best elements of the genre with quite increased difficulty.

The drastic redesign of the tactics screen, a host of useful changes and the improved match engine result in the best Football Manager yet and an essential purchase.

This time Tim Schafer and Double Fine Productions did exactly what needed to be done. They carefully improved and modernized the visual and sound aspects, as well as the interface, of an exceptionally well-designed game, left its other elements untouched, just like they should do, and successfully gave a new breath of life to this beloved adventure game.

Undoubtedly, AC: Odyssey as a game has quite a few issues: bad AI, the strangulation of the player with hundreds of missions and missed opportunities on the RPG level. But it does something also very important: it includes a huge and impressive world, capturing successfully the Ancient Greece aesthetic and it manages to be truly entertaining and unimaginably addictive.

An incredibly ambitious game, an Ark of Everything Cyberpunk and an excellent RPG and Immersive Sim, with technical and AI-related shortcomings that prevent it from fully realizing the disproportionately great expectations it has generated in the 8 years since its original announcement.

Cairn is bringing back the original spirit of indie games about being innovative and thinking outside the box. With a simple gameplay manages to hook up players and suck them into his slow-paced world.

It's football with cars wrapped up as a well-designed, thrilling and addictive game. With its precise controls, it's easy to learn but hard to master. Everyone will have a lot of fun but the multiplayer, preferably with friends, is where it truly shines.

Cities: Skylines is everything we expected but never got from the Simcity series. Craving for a city sim resulted in ignoring the faults and shortages of the latter, something that is emphasized by Skylines' brilliance. The game shines with an extreme attention to detail spanning from macro to micromanagement and provides huge space where you can build your city.

Impressive, more accessible than its predecessors, but at the same time quite deep and with exciting gameplay mechanics. Arc Systems Works has done it again.

Wasteland 3 is an incredibly fun game and a damn good RPG, that pays a fitting tribute to the legacy of Interplay's Fallout games and, through them, to Brian Fargo's first Wasteland game, which originally set the standards for our post-apocalyptic journeys back in 1988.

The first Legend of Grimrock managed to pay homage to the forefathers of its genre, while being free of the shortcomings that often plague retro productions. Its successor, following the same footsteps has managed to expand this successful core towards new directions. It is bigger, technically superior and it offers deeper gameplay. Nevertheless, if you aren't familiar with grid based gameplay, try it out yourselves prior to purchasing it.

Huge amount of content, many possible choices with distinct consequences, reappearance of beloved characters... Despite some obvious flaws and various shortcomings, Dragon Age: Inquisition certainly feels like a step in the right direction for the series.

Blazblue: ChronoPhantasma Extend is an exquisite fighting game, complete in every aspect, very addictive, challenging and fun. Definitely a recommendation for fans of the genre.

Maybe not the ultimate sci-fi game we were hoping for before launch, but Starfield has a lot to offer to both sci-fi fans and fans of Bethesda's games.

An impressive and highly unique RPG, as well as the most comprehensive "Disco Elysium Clone" we have seen to date.

Final Fantasy XV made the long wait worthwhile and it is a very pleasant entry to the series. Gameplay is as challenging as needed, visuals and sound reach a high level, as opposed to its main story, which without being bad, it suffers from poor presentation.

DOOM: The Dark Ages offers a solid prequel of the Slayer saga, while being bold and experimental. However, this experimentation strays away from DOOM 2016's formula, which may alienate FPS-purists even more than Eternal did.

Cold, bleak and unforgiving, just like its predecessor. It may stray even further from the "traditional" City Builders genre, but when experiencing what it has to offer, Frostpunk 2 is in many ways the ideal sequel.

Huntdown is a great example of intense old-fashioned action and bad one-liners, it just has the flaw to last as long as a single shot. Tasteful, but short.

A deep, paranormal-based, story, solid gameplay with only minor flaws, Control marks the return of Remedy to high quality games.

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun is the prince's sweet kiss on a beautiful sub-genre which has been sleeping for far too long. A revitalising effort which should be supported whole-heartedly.

Shovel Knight is really a unique game that appeals, without fear and full of passion, both to new players and to the old retro games lovers.

The scenario and atmosphere are Silent Hill f's biggest merits and will draw you in without you even realizing it. The revamped combat system works well, without any major flaws, but the same couldn't be said about some vague puzzles and the limited inventory space that had us visit the Hokora Shrines frequently. Nevertheless, it leaves a positive impression as the series' return after so many years and makes us optimistic about its future.
