    Origins is a great game that relies heavily on its setting to make an impact on the player. Its gameplay also evolves, and although it still has some of the issues the series have been suffering in the last few entries, it’s definitely a step in the right direction. If you’ve ever been interested in the series, don’t miss this one.

    Nintendo Switch gets a very good port of this legendary adventure. Portability aside, there aren’t many reasons to buy this game again on Switch, but if you haven’t played it or you want it on the go, you can find a very solid version here.

    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.

    It has more changes than last year's and it's on the right track, but still far from what we all desire.

    In spite of lacking some more content, arcade fans will find a very interesting game they should at least try out, and the rest of gamers might be pleasantly surprised by its ideas.

    Hellblade 2 reaches new heights in audiovisual quality while developing Senua’s story. Even if it isn’t revolutionary, it improves on many aspects of its predecessor to deliver a spectacular adventure beautifully paced.

    Exodus is the most complete entry of the franchise. It’s imperfectly perfect, mature and has a fantastic narrative that keeps us engaged from beginning to end.

    This is a bold and interesting proposal, although very buggy. But it will surprise many for its freshness and freedom.

    This is a solid ARPG that shines thanks to its story, characters, setting and art direction.

    This new adventure is charming, clever and fun. One of those games "full of Nintendo" that you cannot miss if you like puzzle-based experiences.

    This Ultimate Edition is the best way to play Control on consoles, with the best graphic quality available and solid framerates. It doesn’t address some of its issues, like the ridiculously large amount of documents you need to read, but the gameplay is still fantastic and it plays better than ever before.

    When you start playing, it’s easy and boring, but give it enough time and you’ll find a great concept. OnRush can be fun and challenging, so dive into it and find how much it has to offer.

    Harmonix proves they know how to make a great music game, different from all the dancing-based competitions.

    Odd Meter's Indika offers a unique, narrative-driven experience set in 19th-century Russia, focusing on a young nun's mission. Despite its lack of surprising gameplay, the game excels in story, atmosphere, and artistic execution, with impressive graphics and voice acting, though it could benefit from better optimization and more innovative mechanics.

    KarmaZoo" is an original cooperative game with well-executed creative ideas, expressive and enjoyable gameplay in both modes, impressive audiovisuals, particularly the narrator (in English), but it suffers from somewhat repetitive design and simple challenges. It's an ideal cooperative experience for playing with strangers due to its expressiveness, and though still enjoyable, it is less original in local mode.

    Gust successfully reinvents the Atelier formula with a new protagonist, an expansive world full of secrets, and refined synthesis mechanics. However, its slow pacing, predictable story, and underdeveloped secondary characters prevent it from reaching greater heights.

    It's hard to see why this game is unique if you don't play it. If you already know what it is, now it is bigger and better than ever; if you don't, this is the best moment to discover it.

    Dementium: The Ward is a very noteworthy title within the Nintendo DS portfolio, not just for being a good game in the first person action genre -not so crowded in the console-, but also for its interesting plot and an intriguing, full of tension atmosphere.

    Clandestine is one of the best coop experiences we've played so far. We've loved working together with a friend, both as a hacker and as a spy. It is also fun to play it alone, but if you're looking for a new coop game, Clandestine should be one of the main candidates.

    Wolfenstein II still is a great game, and if you’re willing to make some visual sacrifices, you’ll get an excellent portable version that showcases what the Switch is capable of.

    A Plague Tale is a beautiful but dark adventure, about fear, death and love. It isn’t perfect, but it doesn’t try to bite more than it can chew, and delivers an experience where nothing feels redundant, and absorbs the player from beginning to end.

    Mirror's Edge stands out for its impressive aesthetics and a gameplay concept full of potential and good intentions, that is executed in an irregular way.

    TWD: No Man's Land delivers an interesting strategy adventure that takes seriously the license it is based on. Yes, it is not perfect, but it's a interesting experience for fans of the franchise.

    Modern Warfare 2 is a good entry in the series that, even if not very innovative, delivers solid and fun gameplay.

    A superb game, with almost no cuts from the original version, but with few new features in comparison with Yakuza 3.

    Kiwami improves what could be improved and keeps what should be kept. The additions aren't too relevant if you played the original, but it's great to replay it or for newcomers.

    Many players thought, when the game was announced, that it was going to be just another Mario Kart clone as there has always been. However, the developer has given the game a unique touch, creating a very enjoyable experience and not just for Sega fans.

    News Tower is an addictive management tycoon capturing the tension of 1930s journalism with deep newspaper operations and exclusive hunting, all within a fantastic Art Deco setting and catchy soundtrack. Although random faction requests and an interface needing late-game improvements slightly detract, its solid foundation and engrossing loop make it a highly recommended and immersive experience.
