Clear your calendars, folks, because the RPG of the year has arrived.
Looking for something even weirder than Torment and with even more character customization options? Disco Elysium is RPG of the year. Hell, maybe even the decade.
There may be a few rough spots here and there, but the polished interior just beneath the surface of this stealth/horror/survival mashup is very bright indeed.
Jensen returns for more stealth exploration (or combat chaos if that's your thing) in a darkly dystopian near-future.
A huge new area, some interesting horror trappings, and legitimate choices between factions - its everything you could want from a Fallout expansion!
Exploration, puzzle solving, combat, lore, story twists: Prey has it all!
The purposefully slow pacing and clunky controls may tank the game for some, but I suspect for most, Red Dead Redemption 2 will be a breath of fresh air in the open world genre.
InXile defied the odds and delivered a truly worthy successor to the oddity and wonder of Planescape: Torment.
Thanks to crowd funding and a developer with a love for classic gaming, the RPG of the year just arrived.
Considering I played for an entire evening straight and never got bored, I'd say Domina is successful at what it sets out to do, with fans of shows like Spartacus and Rome in particular sure to love the setup. Add a save game option (and give us another mode that isn't capped at a specific time) and this is a game that any gladiator enthusiast could sink a whole lot of hours into.
From gunplay to story, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus does a lot of things right. And it's the perfect game at the perfect time.
Between this and Prey, its clear that Arkane is really refining the multiple-route, stealth or combat style to its best form.
I'm actually having more fun playing this ludicrous RPG parody drawn with stick people than I did with the bigger budget Wasteland 2.
Slick combat, plenty of modes, and the best visual representation of the franchise in a video game yet make Dragon Ball FighterZ a game you definitely want to play!
This 8-bit gaming triumph proves you don't need overly complicated mechanics or 3D graphics to provide a stellar strategy experience.
With dozens of new units, additional gameplay mechanics, and whole new ways to approach a High Elf or Dark Elf army, this DLC is well worth a buy for fans of Warhammer II.
Your inner child who was willing to suffer through the hardships of NES platformers will thank you for buying this game.
With a distinct lack of hand holding, in-depth investigative mechanics, and a solid mix of open world design with mythos monsters, The Sinking City is the standard for Lovecraftian games.
The turn-based strategy game of the year has arrived, and the unexpected transition from fantasy to sci-fi is handled superbly.
If you don't mind being actively abused and tortured for hours on end, Vambrace can become extremely addicting for fans of either Darkest Dungeon or classic SNES RPGs.
