A familiar setting makes for some excellent kills in Hitman's latest episode.
A smart, engaging puzzler with a great central mechanic.
An interesting and imaginative remix.
An interesting phone-hacking game which draws from the player's real-world experiences to good effect.
It lacks polish, but Dead by Daylight is a genuinely tense ode to 80s slasher movies.
A confused and confusing shooter which can't capitalise on the famous franchise it leans on.
Fun in the short term, but lacks intensity and excitement.
It doesn't hit the heights of Sapienza, but Marrakesh is another sterling Hitman episode.
Not the disaster many had anticipated, but also fundamentally flawed.
A confident, assured sequel, and a strong end to the series.
A superb second instalment, and one which shows off Hitman's greatest strengths.
An interesting and fun roguelike, albeit one which doesn't capitalise on its potential.
Dark Souls 3 relies too much on former glories to reach the heights of Bloodborne or the original Dark Souls, but that doesn't stop it being another superb adventure.
A strong start to the campaign, marred by some annoying technical issues.
Starts strongly, but soon fades into a slog through samey puzzles and ever-weaker environments.
A wonderful upgrade of one of the most derivative and dull titles in the series.
An FPS where your weapon should be the last thing you use, not the first, Rainbow Six Siege is a fantastic tactical shooter.
Frustrating controls, a bland world, and various technical issues stop Just Cause 3 from being the mindless action classic it clearly wants to be.
Thrills initially, but soon reveals itself to be rather limited.
Campaign is dull and forgettable, but multiplayer is great fun and Zombies has had some real effort poured into it.
