Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition is a title mainly dedicated to historical fans of the series. The game basically re-presents the original gameplay, aged really well after 25 years. The addition of the old classics is a good cue, as is the chance to relive the entire history of the saga. Those expecting a few more improvements or mode additions will be disappointed. Nevertheless, Worms Armageddon is a title that must be tried at least once in a lifetime. What better occasion than this?

Hypercharge Unboxed is a shooter that manages to entertain thanks to horde co-op gameplay with tower defence mechanisms. The fact of using action figures as characters makes the whole thing even more surreal, even if in terms of content something more could have been done.

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster is a title that all fans of the historic first instalment will want to catch up on. The work done by Capcom is indeed noteworthy, managing to improve on gameplay from almost twenty years ago. All this is topped off by an excellent graphic restyling, thanks to the implementation of the RE Engine. Since this is a Remaster, there remain a few problems with the original work on which no changes have been made. The budget price of EUR 49.99 makes Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster an attractive title for anyone looking for a zombie-themed game they can enjoy without too many frills.

Ghostrunner 2 is a game that refines the structure of the first chapter without going much further. Once again, we are faced with a system that makes trial and error its main mechanic, something that might turn some players' noses up. Compared to its predecessor, the motorbike sections breathe new life into the game and the narrative becomes more central, although it is not the main reason why you will want to buy the game. Those who loved the first chapter will immediately feel at home, while newcomers may find Ghostrunner 2 a challenging title that represents a total improvement on what they saw with the first chapter. In short, you can't change a winning team!

In Naruto X Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections CyberConnect2 used all its experience to create the ultimate game dedicated to Naruto and companions. The goal was only partially achieved due to a barely hinted at story mode, a limited number of modes and gameplay that for many could be far too simplistic. Nonetheless, the presence of a huge roster, an intriguing and entertaining new story and an established use of cell shading make Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections a title that all fans of the series and the manga should have on their shelves.

Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions is a good transposition of the Hogwarts wizards' favourite sport. The gameplay is quite fun and each role is well-defined and equipped with unique abilities that well relate to the rules of Quidditch. Despite a single-player campaign, the title is at its best when played in multiplayer, where cooperation between roles becomes paramount. This is a title that will entertain most fans of the series, even if the content at launch is rather lacking. We hope that in the following months Warner Bros. and Unbroken Studios will support the game sufficiently.

South of Midnight is a third-person action adventure that is rather restrained but has all the credentials to make its mark among titles in the genre. In fact, the structure built by Compulsion Games is valid and enjoyable to play. Much importance has been given to plot and setting, inspired by South American folklore. To succeed in this intent, the Canadian team has decided to create rather linear and circumscribed maps, setting up a functional but not too complex gameplay. In short, the idea is that Compulsion Games has decided to stay in its comfort zone without daring too much. A choice that, sincerely, we appreciated considering that a wide and structured game is not always synonymous with success. Better little but done well.

The updated version of Predator: Hunting Grounds features the same formula as its counterpart that originally arrived on PS4, Xbox One and PC. The improvements made mainly concern the graphical and technical components, while maintaining almost identical gameplay. That said, the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions are a worthwhile purchase for fans of the film series. Those who have already tried the original title, however, will not see so many changes as to justify the purchase on current gen.

The Stalker trilogy is undoubtedly a good marketing move in view of the upcoming Stalker 2, due in September 2024. Nonetheless, we cannot say that we are facing a true remastered version, but simply a transposition of the original titles on the old and current generation consoles. This is because the improvements made are modest, both in terms of technical and graphical aspects. Nevertheless, this is a trilogy that will be of interest to those who were unable to experience the original titles on PC or who, while waiting for Stalker 2, want to learn more about the plot.

Squirrel with a Gun is a game designed to make the player smile using the irony typical of no-nonsense memes. From this point of view, the experiment is successful thanks to some very funny scenes, which, however, in some cases, border on the grotesque. Unfortunately, the outline gameplay does not support the basic idea in the right way, despite some interesting cues.
