SoulCalibur is back, and with a victory it is! With an enormous amount of story content and background information, you're set to enjoy the solo playing as much as the multiplayer. This is the fighting game you wished SoulCalibur 5 would have been.- XGN

Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales proves you don't need expensive graphics to have an impactful story. Just excellent voice acting, writing and a unique card game is enough to make this an excellent title.- XGN

This War of Mine makes you realise the terrible nature of war better than a thousand ad-campaigns can. Trying to survive in this surreal world is hard, and asks sacrifices you are probably not willing to take. Very impressive.- XGN

Grand Theft Auto V on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is still a better game than most of the other games released on the new consoles so far. A must play for newcomers, and a great reason to return to Los Santos for veterans.- XGN

Time will tell whether or not Hearthstone will keep appealing to new players. With Whispers of the Old Gods the game feels new and fresh once again that two years after the release of the vanilla game still makes it worth playing.- XGN

Demon's Souls is an amazing game to show off that the PS5 is a graphical powerhouse. The mechanics from the original are intact, just like the grim and mysterious atmosphere. This might be the best launch game on the PlayStation 5.- XGN

Warlords of Draenor disappointed a lot of fans, but Blizzard is back with Legion. The new areas look amazing and have a much bigger story, the Artifact Weapons add depth and Demon Hunters are awesome. Now we just need more content patches, Blizzard.- XGN

Capcom shows that Resident Evil remains innovative after 30 years, drawing fans and new players into a brand-new story enhanced by a tense and oppressive atmosphere. Despite minor flaws this could be the horror game of the year.- XGN

Like a real party Forza Horizon can entertain you for hours. The game offers variation in both the singleplayer and multiplayer modes and looks fantastic. The soundtrack just completes it. Despite a few flaws the franchise took a turn that proves to be good for newcomers, but also great for the fanbase. You can't miss out on this party.- XGN

Colin McRae: DiRT 2 has beautiful graphics, great gameplay and contains more than enough races and tournaments for hardcore racing fans. But besides all that, the game is also very accessible for gamers without any racing experience. Therefore DiRT 2 is truly is a great title.- XGN

Obsidian Entertainment has learned from its previous titles and used those lessons in The Outer Worlds. It makes the best RPG from the studio to date, with a story full of choices and consequences, weird planets and inhabitants and a plethora of play-styles. It's a shame the combat feels clunky from time to time and there are fewer planets to visit than expected, but that shouldn't spoil the fun that The Outer Worlds has to offer.- XGN

Velocity 2X for the Switch. What could we say? The game combines great gameplay with the best of two worlds. The world of platformers and the world of shoot ‘em up games. Every level asks the most of our focus which ads a new level to the replayability.- XGN

If you're able to ignore the flaws in the beta of PUBG you see the potential that's in the game. PUBG is super exciting from the very beginning until the very last end, which makes it one of the best Battle Royale games out there. [Early Access Score = 75]- XGN
