Ten years have passed since the release of the first title, but the mechanics and the unique mix of action, visual novel and turn-based strategy of the Valkyria Chronicles franchise remain enjoyable and addicting, making this fourth episode probably the best up to now.

Graphically-wise, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is the best in the franchise so far, but it's not only the Dragon Engine that shines: an array of mini-games, an amazing campaign and improved combat system are the stars of the show.

The long awaited end of the Erebonian arc is finally here, and it's a huge and well written, if classic, JRPG, that is recommended to all fans of the series. It's a tough sell for newcomers, though, so the advice is to play the other three chapters before this one.

Image & Form would have committed an unforgivable crime to deny the joy of playing its Steamworld Heist even to all the owners of Playstation 4 and Vita: after all, we are talking about one of the most eccentric and entertaining turn-based strategic of recent times.

This is another impossible port from the folks at Panic Button, and one of the best of all at that. Doom Eternal is simply the best shooter available for Nintendo Switch and a manual on how to shrink down one of the most intensive game of the year on a handheld console.

This Special Edition offers a complete package, yet it does not strive to offer truly new content, other than mods, so far absent on console

The Xbox One edition of Shovel Knight adds an exciting challenge to the Battletoads, which alone, for the most avid nostalgics, could be worth the ephemeral cost of the ticket, but the real reasons to download it are the same as those already highlighted in previous reviews, starting with an immediate and fun gameplay and passing through a soundtrack to applause.

As we have already had the opportunity to say several times, on the occasion of remasters awarded with high-sounding marks, the passion and care for the original product often make the difference in this type of operation. Rejuvenated, streamlined, embellished as it is in this new version, Odin Sphere also deserves to be played by a new generation of gamers, who may have missed it in 2007.

March of the Lich King is a courageous expansion, impressive content, which bets on a new class and, regardless of the thousand problems in which the development team had already run into at the time of the debut of the demon hunter, tries to offer even more substantial news, between the tripartite rune system and the new keyword "Thirst for mana". The result has so far impressed us, and we are having a lot of fun composing mixed decks of the knight of death and experimenting with the various synergies between the cards, much more than had happened in recent years.

We did not like the distribution method, and in hindsight the price of the package could be a bit high for certain audiences, yet it is difficult to keep the pout at Square Enix and this Pixel Remaster. The efforts made to make thirty-year-old games enjoyable is evident and the result is that the compilation not only retains an enormous historical value, but also an equally impressive playful value.

Bug Fables is much more than a loving tribute to the first two episodes of the Paper Mario franchise: it is a beautifully crafted rpg adventure that any Switch owner should not miss.

Fire Emblem Engage is a great celebration of a more than 30 years old franchise, and also one of the best looking Switch games of the last months. We dare to say it's not one of the best episodes in the franchise, but it is, nonetheless, a great SRPG if you have at least fifty hours to invest in it.

The Switch version of The Outer Worlds is pure role-playing on the go: at the price of some low-res textures, you can take a whole galaxy with you wherever you want.

Dying Light 2 is bigger, better and bolder than its predecessor and even if it's not exactly a looker on console, offers fifty hours of fun for both newcomers and fans of the first game. It's not perfect by any means, but we cannot avoid recommending it.

Football Manager 2023 is a solid iteration of one of the most beloved sim franchises on the market. It's addictive as usual, it adds some welcomed new features and an extra layer of strategy and official licenses. Now all that remains is to fix the abnormal injury rate and we're done.
