    It delivers an exceptional extraction shooter experience defined by Bungie’s signature gunplay and an addictive, roguelike progression loop. While the atmosphere is immersive and the endgame content is thrilling, the cumbersome interface and steep learning curve create unnecessary friction. It is a brilliant, high-stakes rebirth that demands patience despite its clunky menus.

    Any fan of the series should be considering buying this game, as long as they don't mind the lack of physical version or not being translated into any other language but English. There's little innovation here, but it's addictive, fun and satisfying.

    Boasting an extensive roster, varied match types, and immersive modes, WWE 2K24 delivers the most comprehensive wrestling gaming experience in years. Despite some minor gameplay tweaks and inherited bugs, it excels in content, especially with its WrestleMania Showcase and Universe mode, making it a must-have for WWE fans.

    This is an enjoyable Souls-like that simplifies the formula but focuses on the right elements to make it work.

    It is not a revolution, but it plays and looks great. It feels fresh, and the multiplayer mode is one of the best we've seen in a few years. If you give it a try, it might surprise you.

    We cannot deny Rockstar could and should have done more with its most successful game ever, but the experience is still fantastic and better than many other open world games that came after.

    A game that finds the balance between the new and the classic survival horror. If you like being scared with an infiltration-based gameplay, it's a great option, but if you like Alien as well, it is a game you cannot miss.

    If you like a multiplayer FPS where realism and tactic battle comes first, you should give this a try. Keep in mind it's very demanding, so make sure that you're ready for a challenge.

    It is true that we (Spanish users) don't get this trilogy the way we wanted, but if English is not a problem for you, then you'll find a great collection with three games that are still an outstanding experience.

    A great title with the best multiplayer we've seen on this console so far. There are some framerate issues, but if you're a FPS fan, then this is a must have.

    Content aside –as it needs a bit more, in our opinion–, Cotton Reboot is a fantastic shoot ‘em up for those looking for a nostalgic trip.

    Arc System Works delivers a great update and expansion of the original Granblue Fantasy Versus, a fun and spectacular fighting game that is more complete than its predecessor, with more characters, modes, and features. It offers an accessible gameplay for newcomers and veterans alike, with a rollback netcode and a cross-play feature that enhance the online experience. However, the novelties are not drastic and it should have an option to upgrade from Granblue Fantasy Versus.

    It delivers a breathtaking audiovisual overhaul of a Nintendo 64 classic, blending faithful level design with surprisingly deep character development. Although the brief ninety-minute campaign feels dated by modern standards, its mastery demands constant replayability and skill. This spectacular rail-shooter revitalizes a forgotten genre, even if the lack of true co-op marks a missed opportunity.

    With several interesting additions, this is one of the puzzle games you cannot miss, especially if you liked the original.

    Dontnod strikes backs with yet another great episode. Many blank spots of the plot are filled here, but also leaves room for new mysteries to unfold.

    It's not perfect, but it's fun, well-designed and reasonably priced, so it's a great choice while we wait for F-Zero to come back.

    Mordhau is like a spiritual successor of Chivalry. Its cleverly-designed combat system and its Frontline mode will give you many, many hours of fun.

    Shift 2: Unleashed builds upon the firm base of the previous game and offers more features and better features. More tracks, vehicles and multiplayer options thanks to the inclusion of the social system Autolog, and also better physics and simulation, which have improved the right way. It is not a perfect simulation experience, but will please most gamers.

    Although there aren’t many changes here, this year’s entry still is a great F1 game, and the additions, while small, are very welcome.

    The Switch 2 versions offer sharp image quality, stable performance, and an excellent new Spanish localization, although some pre-rendered cutscenes look worse and Kiwami 2 shows occasional frame pacing issues.

    Borderlands 4 is a step in the right direction. You can tell Gearbox has listened to its players, and has evolved the formula to deliver the best gunplay in the series, well-balanced gameplay and a story worth getting into.

    Ghostrunner looks great, plays great and it’s also a great challenge. If you like something different, mixing genres and action-focused, make sure you give it a try.

    This collection offers a diverse mix of classic 2D and 3D fighting games from the late 90s and early 2000s, with standout titles like Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Power Stone 2 delivering lasting fun and depth. Despite some unevenness in game quality and dated graphics in certain entries, the extensive customization options and improvements like enhanced resolution make it a worthwhile package for both nostalgic players and newcomers.

    This edition shines with an impressive technical adaptation, stable performance, cross-save support, expansions included, and thoughtful use of Switch 2 features, although it still carries over issues like weak stealth AI, dull space battles, and some dated animations, making it both a top-tier portable experience and a reference point for future ports despite its lingering flaws.

    VOEZ is an outstanding musical title, but the way the difficulty progresses as the story does can be frustrating for many players. Still, for its price, it's a good choice if you like the genre.

    FutureGrind is a great idea very well executed, but it could’ve been something much better and bigger. It is, by al means, a original and fun experience, but we hope the team expands it and polishes it in a hypothetical sequel.

    Capcom expands Monster Hunter Stories beyond its 3DS origins, now reaching PS4, Switch, and PC, offering an enhanced RPG experience with improved visuals and additional content, though the simplicity of its combat and story may feel somewhat dated compared to its superior sequel.

    Untitled Goose Game has its flaws, but the most important thing is that it tries to do something fun and original. Being an annoying goose is much funnier than we thought.

    This is the best entry in the series gameplay-wise and fan of this competition will love it, but it also feels like a step back when it comes to content.
