Travis Northup's Reviews
Resident Evil 4 Remake VR Mode is just about as great as you’d expect, but the base game’s third-person perspective made Capcom’s job a lot harder.
Lords of the Fallen is an awesome soulslike with a fantastic dual-realities premise, even when performance shortcomings and wimpy bosses crash the party.
Lies of P might not branch out particularly far from its soulslike inspiration, but it plays the part extremely well.
Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy sequel is a superb puzzle platformer that sticks close to the series’ playbook.
Blasphemous 2 is an orthodox Metroidvania with style, creepy bosses, and a gloriously gross return to Cvstodia.
Meet Your Maker is a great start for a dungeon-delving shooter that’s as unique as it is hard to put down.
High on Life is a laugh-out-loud funny space odyssey that’s chaotic, bizarre, and a ton of fun.
Goat Simulator 3 is bigger, sillier, and packed with more low-stakes fun.
A Plague Tale: Requiem is a safe but exciting sequel with an impressively alarming amount of rats.
Disney Dreamlight Valley is an incredibly strong early access start to a bewitching, Disney-infused life sim.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 can take some meandering detours across its massive 150-hour campaign, but great characters and addictive tactical combat make it all well worth the time.
Mario Strikers: Battle League is an over-the-top soccer game that's wildly fun, even though it does very little new.
Evil Dead: The Game is an asymmetric multiplayer game of cat and mouse that's compelling and exhilarating, despite being rough around the edges - much like the horror/comedies that inspired it.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a fantasy-themed Borderlands spin-off that's hilarious, action-packed, and ridiculous, even if it plays it a bit safe.
Bugs and PvP aside, The Witch Queen delivers the best version of Destiny 2 yet.
Windjammers 2 is a tightly balanced, addictive game of combat air hockey that will have you screaming at your friends.
Riders Republic is an excellent, arcadey extreme sports sandbox with bonkers multiplayer events, an impressive open world, and unfortunate server issues.
The Riftbreaker is an addictive, complex, and satisfying RTS/bullet hell hybrid, even while it suffers from some very noticeable performance issues.
World War Z: Aftermath is another lumbering step forward for zombie-kind, even if it doesn't completely satisfy one's appetite for brains.
The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD is a fantastic Zelda adventure that's aged like wine, even if Wii-era motion controls still aren't great.
