    This is more FF XIV, and that's great news. It is an impressive expansion and one of the best Final Fantasy we've ever played. Yes, it's online, but if you've ever loved the series, don't be scared and give it a try.

    A great remake that updates the Atlus classic to modern times with a new and stylish audiovisual section and with a multitude of interesting novelties and improvements. It is not the definitive version of this wonderful RPG, but it is the best and most enjoyable one, with an unforgettable story and characters, although the “dungeon crawling” in the Tartarus tower may not connect equally well with everyone.

    Injustice 2 is an amazing fighting game, with a lot of content, outstanding visuals and solid gameplay. One of the best fighting games of the year.

    A great game released now with a great expansion that doesn’t fix its repetitive nature. Also, it would have been great to have at least some sort of noticeable graphical update for PS5 to match the fantastic DualSense implementation.

    The Witness is a game you should play without knowing anything about it. It will make you feel dumb, it will make you fell smart. The Witness is unique, a modern classic you cannot miss.

    These two games land on PS5 with virtually no new features, but improving its resolution and framerate. Technical matters aside, both games are must-haves if you enjoy this type of challenge.

    Square Enix has created a fantastic action RPG that lives up to the legend of the original. It’s beautiful, moving and epic, and the combat system is fantastic. There are some narrative decisions that will be controversial, but overall it’s a game you shouldn’t miss.

    Very few times you can say this about a downloadable content, but with ten hours of one-player campaign, a completely new story, refined graphics and sound and more multiplayer modes, Undead Nightmare is worth every cent it costs.

    A great leap for the Pokémon series, but which comes when Nintendo DS is about to be "retired". A very complete and balanced Pokémon game, with more than 700 creatures to catch.

    Dragon Quest is synonymous with classic Japanese RPG, and this ninth entry in the series keeps itself loyal to that spirit. But its multiplayer focus brings new features, which result in obvious improvements but also in some flaws.

    Pokémon comes back with another adventure, as fun and addictive as always, with a great visual evolution that suits it really well. It's yet another must-have on 3DS.

    Cuphead is a masterpiece, and this is a fantastic port. No matter where, but make sure you play one of the best indie games of the generation.

    Ultimately, Burnout Paradise is a fantastic racing game that no devotee of the genre should let escape him. It has taken a year to arrive, but it delivers the most complete edition of the game, with a graphic engine excellently adapted to PC, and with a user community ready to squeeze the most of this Criterion work.

    Astral Chain is a must-have for Switch users. We are absolutely in love with its concept and design, and it proves, once again, how PlatinumGames are the masters of this genre.

    Night in the Woods is one of those games you don't forget, with a great story and relatable characters. Behind that colorful, cartoonish look, there's a very deep world.

    DiRT 3 is again a great offroad racing game, midway between arcade and simulation and fully customizable by the player. It improves its graphics and controls, and also adds more assitance to less experimented users. The addition of Gymkhanas is good, although it may not convince those users who just want to race in tracks. Overall, a great sequel that is still the best in what it does.

    It not only is a great game, but also original, addictive and comes with tons of content. If you like dungeon crawlers and you're looking for something different, Crypt of the NecroDancer is a safe bet that adds an unique musical touch to the formula.

    This is the best Guilty Gear to enter the series, and one of the best games in the franchise. Accessible, incredible deep and espectacular, Strive is a must-have for 2D fighting fans.

    This is a masterpiece of a genre whose essence has been lost because of the "casualization" of the video games. It's like going back to the 8/16 bits, when the experience was the most important thing. There's only two things we can complain about: not being localized (into Spanish) and not being ready for HDTV's. If this is not a problem for you, then it scores a perfect 10.

    Pokémon is back with a great RPG 3DS owners shouldn't miss. Without breaking the core experience of the series, this episode feels fresh and new, and manages to prove itself once again as one of the most solid franchises of the industry.

    FighterZ is an incredible game, and this version is as good as the others. It’s a shame the Joy-Con is not great for this type of game, because other than that, being able to play FighterZ anywhere is like a dream come true.
