The King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match is one of the best games in the KOF series and offers an excellent online with rollback netcode. There are some small problems, but they don't diminish the brilliance of the work.

DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods – Part One is extremely challenging. The endless waves of enemies coupled with specific ways to kill the new types of monsters make this DLC one of the most difficult ever seen. For those looking for a challenge, we recommended it and, of course, it is "more DOOM". However, if you think that the base game is challenging, stay away from the DLC.

Tamarin is disappointing. Bad gameplay and prevented from progressing by constant crashes, there is a moment when you simply give up on a game.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a great and fun platform game, especially if you play it with friends. Alone, the fun is still there, but less present. The lack of a run button is also quite noticeable in this case.

Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate is the definitive package (so far) of one of the best fighting games released in recent years. Rain, Mileena and Rambo are welcome additions. It's great that the PS5 version exists, but it doesn't offer much beyond the improved loading – which wasn't bad on the PS4.

The Pathless has a slow start, but the journey is rewarding. The technical part, the soundtrack and the game world are incredible. It can be considered repetitive later on, but the gameplay and the boss battles make up for that. It's hard to say in words, but the "experience" of playing The Pathless is unique.

Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition is the definitive edition of one of the best games released by Capcom. Whoever played the original can take advantage of technical improvements, new modes and Vergil. But, in general, the game remains basically the same, so I strongly recommend it to those who haven't checked out the original yet.

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is relatively short, but it is still exceptional. Miles' gameplay manages to be different enough from Peter, even though the base of both is similar. The story is interesting, but a little predictable and much less "epic". Despite these points, it is an excellent addition to the PS4 (and now PS5) library.

Tin & Kuna is a good platform and puzzle game. It has a variety of challenges and the gameplay is satisfactory. However, it is a relatively short title and, despite the variety, it is monotonous to keep pushing and taking objects throughout the stages.

Crash Bandicoot 4 is insanely difficult. This can be a positive or negative point, depending on your vision. However, the stages are, in general, too long, making the game exhausting at certain times. Except this and if you are not easily frustrated by high difficulties, Crash Bandicoot 4 is a must have title that has both nostalgia and novelty.

Hotshot Racing is a great racing game and a beautiful tribute to the classics of the 90s. However, in addition to its gameplay being simple, the number of tracks is low and therefore it appears to be a small title, despite having a considerable number of modes for the genre.

No Straight Roads is a unique, captivating and fun game. The soundtrack is absurdly good. The battles are creative and the characters overflow with charisma. However, it is relatively short, but challenging to finish it completely. If the platform parts before each boss were better, we would have a title that would easily compete for several awards.

Destroy All Humans! is a good remake of a game that has become a cult classic over time. It has refined graphics in a new engine, but at the same time an excessive number of loadings. Regarding the base material, it has a good mood in certain parts, but the really fun parts (like destroying everything) are overshadowed by the bad stealth missions.

New Super Lucky's Tale is a great platform game for all ages. It has excellent gameplay and a great soundtrack. The biggest problem is its difficulty and maybe duration: besides being very easy (mainly for veterans of the 3D platform genre), the complete journey with 100% of the items does not take much time.

Samurai Shodown NeoGeo Collection is a good collection of the series, offering even an online mode with good netcode, the never before released Samurai Shodown V Perfect and a museum with good content. The downsides are the absence of a Training Mode, the museum could be better in certain aspects and the bad side of the online mode in every game: it is desert.

Cuphead is an excellent game and a must for any type of player. It may be considered difficult at first, but mastering it will become challenging in the right way – especially in the search for the platinum trophy. The graphics are incredibly beautiful with their retro animations and the songs are awesome too. The biggest downside is the boss battles with the airplane. The gameplay in these parts, personally, is not as fun as the platform ones. An online cooperative would be great too, because offline is very fun.

Superliminal is a puzzle game that will challenge your perception. It has intelligent challenges, but at the same time it has very simple mechanics and a short duration. In a maximum of three hours you will finish the title for the first time, and what remains after that is to improve your time on puzzles that you already know the answer.

Resident Evil 3 is another excellent Capcom title. Despite being a little short, it is challenging and encourages the player to finish it more than once. The story remains interesting and the gameplay is basically the same as in Resident Evil 2 Remake with some improvements (which is not a bad thing). The graphics and the sound effects are incredible. To make up for the short single-player campaign, Capcom presents us with the RE Resistance multiplayer, which has an interesting proposal and is a great addition to the package, but its long learning curve can keep some players away.

DOOM Eternal offers a solid, challenging and addictive single-player campaign. The new mechanics for movement are good and make the gameplay even more frantic. The storyline can be a little confusing if you are unaware of the previous games, but fans will enjoy it. The multiplayer mode, however, leaves something to be desired - it is interesting in theory, but its execution is poor and appears to be quite unbalanced.

Granblue Fantasy Versus is a fighting game with simple and pleasant mechanics. The graphics are great and the soundtrack as well. Its RPG mode is a little bland, with a weak story, but with good boss battles. The rest of the game is what you would expect from a fighting title: Arcade Mode, ways to learn the basics, Gallery, etc. Online mode, like most Japanese games, is a delay-based netcode, something developers need to rethink about not using anymore.
