    Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE is the long0awaited result of a Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem cross-over. The game provides quite the challenge, but a challenge that's worth experiencing because of it's light-hearted story and traditional JRPG gameplay.

    Gunman Clive 2 is a very nice sequel to its predecessor. Gameplay is still fun and challenging and the extra characters really contribute to the overall game.

    Are you looking for an arcade title where you can blow up buildings and kill countless of enemies in a campaign mode that will take around six hours to complete? Do you love screen filling explosions? If the answer is yes to both questions, then look no further, because Renegade Ops is just the right game for you.

    With Pokemon Shield Game Freak has delivered one of their best games in years thanks to a fantastic addition with the Wild Area. Everyone can find something they will enjoy even though the National Dex isn't here and the online infrastructure isn't great. The music, new designs and animation alone give you enough reason to play on the first mainline entries to ever grace the TV.

    What a start of the year. A New Mario game for the Switch. The game has earlier been released for Wii U, but the Switch version is absolutely lovey. It has coop for 4 and a lot of levels to explore. Let's a go.

    Xenoblade Chronicles 2 expands its already huge amount of content with a brand new prequel story in the shape of Torna - The Golden Country. This is essentially a brand new game and it even improves upon its predecessor.

    Modern Warfare makes you love the franchise all over again. With a great campaign and an excellent multiplayer to boot this is the most fun you'll have with a shooter all year. It's a shame the Spec Ops mode doesn't live up to the hype.

    Elite Dangerous is a very ambitious game. Travel through the massive universe in your own spaceship. Trade, explore and fight your way through the galaxy in this epic and enormous game. But keep in mind: the game still has a way to go until it's finished.

    South Park The Fractured But Whole is a great RPG that not only plays great, but also recreates the unique atmosphere of the show without any flaws. The game is a blast to play on the go, but at home you'll also enjoy every second of this journey.

    Il-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey is the best World War II combat flight simulator at this moment. The game really brings you the atmosphere of WWII. Thanks to the good gameplay and content, this game is definitely worth buying.

    God of War: Ascension does exactly what you would expect from a God of War title.The sheer amount of violence and tension is simply breathtaking, especially when taking place right on top of a giant creature. The entire experience is accompanied by stunning graphics and an impressive soundtrack. While the multiplayer is somewhat disappointing, it is apparent that Kratos is still this generation's most fearsome warrior.

    Goodbye Deponia turned out to be the weakest entry in the series. The story feels a bit messy and the ending isn't really that satisfying. The puzzles are challenging though and it's still one of the most humourus games out there.

    This game is so much fun. The starter pack includes real LEGO and the game itself brings a lot of innovations and renovations.

    A Remaster to the letter, Diablo 2 Resurrected introduces a new graphic layer on top of the original Diablo game, which is still available at the touch of a button. The inclusion of the Legacy mode shows both the progression in graphics and the truthfulness to the original in gameplay. While there are some quality-of-life improvements, we would have preferred quite a few more. Resurrected is especially suited for the hardcore fans of the original, provided they can wait for online to be included.

    Yes, Puppeteer looks amazing. Yes, it's something different. But no, it's not that good as expected. Therefore the game is simply too simple.

    Ties That Bind Part 1 leaves you behind with a lot of questions. What happened with baby AJ? But those questions let you crave for more. After playing this episode you definitely want to play Ties That Bind Part 2 as soon as possible.

    Dishonored Definitive Edition ports the 2012 original version to the powerful Xbox One and PlayStation 4, including all DLC. That means better graphics and extra content. There are some downsides, but there is no better moment to start playing Dishonored.

    Sleeping Dogs is a beautifully story-driven game that had some brutal action woven in between. It's just a shame that there is still a fair amount of glitches and that the car chases could have been more intense.

    Remnant II takes the shooting souls-like core of the original game, and builds upon it on almost all fronts. From building your perfect build by mixing archetypes, to exploring the diverse selection of beautifully crafted worlds, Remnant II gives you plenty of secrets to discover. The gunplay also feels really solid, although the overall experience does get hurt by a fluctuating difficulty and a scarcity of weapons for a FPS souls like, especially in the early game.

    400 Days is a good introduction to five all new characters. Telltale delivers the same amazing storytelling that makes you want to move to the edge of your seat. 400 Days is a short but immersive way to get gamers ready for The Walking Dead: Season 2.

    Company of Heroes 2 is not revolutionary as its predecessor was. However, it takes the strengths of the first part with it, polish the game and adds some new elements. And with that said, Company of Heroes 2 is a great game.

    Red Steel 2 let's you experience some cool and intense swordfights and battles. The game lacks of variety, so long play sessions are not recommended. However, Red Steel 2 is a must have for hardcore Wii gamers.

    You will definitely enjoy Crash Bandicoot. There are 3 games to play and you will like them even if you haven't played the original games. There are a lot of different ways to play the game, and there is a lot of humor.
