Despite its flaws, Onimusha is one of the most fun games of the past nine months, in all its imperfections. This is thanks to a well-structured, well-built combat system, incredible direction, and a damn charismatic protagonist we already miss.

The Blood of Dawnwalker is a game the writer was overlooking, but one that, once experienced, isn't easily forgotten. The world created by Rebel Wolves is incredible, and it manages to fight on equal terms with masterpieces like The Witcher 3. The narrative is certainly one of the production's strengths, even though it's tied to the time mechanic, which will need significant refinement for the next chapter.

Star Wars: Zero Company is a particularly interesting game. The story of Hawks and the Zero Company took us on an adventure through the Galaxy Far, Far Away that let us appreciate Star Wars, even without being big fans of it. Although the conceptual foundation recalls the standards set by XCOM, Bit Reactor's production introduces a series of interesting and clever changes that completely shake up the rhythm of combat.

5 / 10.0 - Disgaea Mayhem
Sep 1, 2026

Disgaea Mayhem is an insufficient game, even considering it's a Nippon Ichi Software title belonging to a glorious series like Disgaea. The gameplay is bland, the settings are repetitive, and the story, despite having all the series' classic elements, is so short it doesn't allow you to fully appreciate it

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – Switch 2 Edition is the best way to experience, in 2026, the second chapter of one of the most important series in the complex world of JRPGs. Monolith Soft developed a title capable of blending the world of battle shonen with a quieter, more committed narrative closer to seinen works.

8.4 / 10.0 - Mortal Shell II
Aug 27, 2026

Cold Symmetry took Mortal Shell and tackled the heavy problems of the first chapter, creating a second entry that hybridizes Dark Souls and Sekiro that genuinely surprised us. Regardless of everything, the bold gameplay and the strong artistic component make it a game not to be underestimated, one genre fans should recover as soon as possible.

8.6 / 10.0 - Lies of P
Aug 20, 2026

Lies of P Complete Edition is the sum of the experience created by NOUGH Studio and Neowiz. The game retraces the classic tropes of the Soulslike subgenre, improving the formula started by FromSoftware in some ways. On Nintendo Switch 2, the Balanced mode feels much closer to the fluidity of 60fps than to the heaviness of 30, while still leaving room to improve visual quality or add other elements.

A distinctive work, not always perfectly balanced, but with a personality so strong it's hard to ignore.

8.5 / 10.0 - Saros
May 29, 2026

Ghost Master: Resurrection is an AI-upscaled remaster disguised as an Unreal Engine 5 remake, a practice we simply cannot justify, no matter how you look at it.

8.7 / 10.0 - Forza Horizon 6
May 14, 2026

Forza Horizon 6 can be considered a great arcade racer, though 'only' a solid sequel. Gameplay is one of its biggest improvements, with cars benefiting from Turn 10's work.

7.5 / 10.0 - Anthem#9
May 1, 2026

ANTHEM#9 is a small indie surprise that intelligently blends roguelite, deckbuilding, and turn-based puzzle combat. The system works really well once you master the rhythm of combos and interruptions.
