I Am Setsuna is perfect for those hoping to get their JRPG fix without sacrificing all their available free time for the next six months or anyone interested in completing a role-playing game that prioritizes enjoyability over hours played.
Without a doubt, Edge Of Nowhere is one of the best VR games currently on the market. Find out why we're so fond of Insomniac Games' first VR title and why we think some fans should hold off on a purchase until Edge Of Nowhere gets its first price cut.
It might only be April but we wouldn't hesitate to say Dark Souls 3 is going to be one of 2016's top releases.
Epistory takes some interesting chances and sets out to make a decidedly different game than anything we’ve experienced over the last few decades. Those who’ve been yearning for a new typing game may find enough to justify a $12.99 purchase, but Epistory is unlikely to convert any new fans of the genre.
Tom Clancy's The Division has plenty of polish and engaging gun fights but we're not quite sold on the latest shooter from Ubisoft.
SteamWorld Heist snuck onto the 3DS eShop earlier this month, without much fanfare or discussion. But SteamWorld Heist might be the best tactical strategy game to grace the platform in 2015.
The changes present in Just Cause 3 aren't substantial enough to win over those uninterested in the game's predecessors. But there's more than enough here for longtime fans to justify one last purchase before the end of 2015.
I see little reason why longtime fans of the franchise would be disappointed with Black Ops 3. It may not draw in many new fans, or convert those who've never been big Call of Duty fans. But there's more than enough here to keep the game's existing community locked in digital combat for another twelve months.
WWE 2K16 isn't exactly the best wrestling game we've ever played. But it's not the worst, either.
Dragon Quest Heroes may have its flaws. But the game proves, once again, Omega Force's third-party projects remain Must Play games for any longtime fans of the hack-and-slash genre.
If all you want is a better-looking version of Blood Bowl: Chaos Edition, and/or built-in online league support, then Blood Bowl 2 has you covered. But if you were hoping for a bit more from Cyanide Studios' next Blood Bowl release, it might be worth waiting until the price comes down and/or an upcoming Blood Bowl 2 patch gives the game a much-needed content injection.
Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is one of those releases the gaming community will be using as a benchmark for years to come. I just hope there's more story hidden somewhere in The Phantom Pain, or being delivered via DLC, to give the Metal Gear series the victory lap it deserves.
Rocket League brings car soccer into the current generation of gaming and the latest release from Psyonix is easily one of the most fun games we've played all year.
Batman: Arkham Knight is not a perfect game but even horrendous vehicle mechanics can't overshadow what has to be one of the best video games to debut this year.
Double Fine's new strategy game isn't likely to disappoint anyone who's been keeping tabs on Massive Chalice over the last few years.
If you prefer the sort of fast-paced gameplay that Visceral seems to be going for, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare did a much better job of delivering on that vision.
I have little doubt that Sir Galahad will join a pantheon of iconic PlayStation heroes that includes Crash Bandicoot, Kratos and many others. But it's going to take at least one more adventure, and a damned good one at that, before many gamers look back on The Order: 1886 with any sort of fondness.
It's an interesting game, and one of the handful of current-gen projects that truly feel like they wouldn't have been possible on older consoles, but Dying Light ultimately falls short of being anything other than a decent time killer.
Civilization: Beyond Earth makes a few alterations to the standard Civilization formula but Beyond Earth never really feels like much more than a glorified expansion for its predecessor.
Destiny may not have been the shooter that we were hoping for, or even the revolutionary experience that Bungie promised, but we've still got high hopes for the game's future.
