Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels is a worthy addendum to one of the best racing games ever made.
Stray has a unique premise, a rich world, an engaging story, fun gameplay, and it lets you play as a cat. It's a good game.
MADiSON is a must-play psychological horror game that'll have you on the edge of your seat from the first second right until the credits roll.
Deliver Us the Moon is a solid game, but this sloppy current-gen upgrade is probably not the best way to experience it.

Industria is rough around the edges, but its solid world, world-building, and storytelling are still worth experiencing.

Trek to Yomi's outstanding visuals and presentation are quite enough to make up for its fairly straightforward and simplistic gameplay.

With engaging battles, a captivating story, excellent world-building, and interesting choices with actual weight and consequences, Triangle Strategy is an absolute gem that far exceeds all expectations.
Ghostwire: Tokyo mixes unique ideas with formulaic design, and though the latter does affect the experience, it is ultimately still a solid, enjoyable game that's well worth experiencing.
Grand Theft Auto 5's new-gen upgrade is solid and effective, but much too conservative, especially for a game that's long overstayed its welcome.
Monark has a lot of good ideas, but almost all of them are let down by a repetitive structure, grindy combat, and baffling design decisions.
Martha is Dead is best appreciated from a distance, because while its narrative premise and setting are certainly impresses, the game itself is slow as molasses and frustratingly clunk.
Cyberpunk 2077 isn't the disaster that it was at launch, but even on more powerful hardware, it's just a slightly more polished version of a deeply disappointing game.
