Raiden IV x MIKADO remix is the most complete version of Raiden IV. It groups together the extras and game modes of the previous versions of this fourth installment, and also adds interesting options such as the TATE mode to get more out of our vertical Nintendo Switch, and of course the star of this edition, a new soundtrack produced by the prestigious Japanese arcade game center Mikado with the participation of artists from the world-class Arcade scene. A must for lovers of Raiden and shoot 'em up.

The Good Life is the new work by Yukio Futatsugi and Hidetaka 'Swery' Suehiro although we will see many more typical elements of the latter's games. We will have to uncover the secrets hidden in the British town of Rainy Woods while enjoying a whole country life simulator. Too bad the end result is clouded by an obvious lack of rhythm and somewhat debatable playable mechanics. Despite everything, The Good Life is worth a look, especially if we like Swery's work.

With G-DARIUS HD we can enjoy the original Arcade from 1997 and a completely revamped version in high definition. One of the best Darius by right that now reaches us in the best possible way and closes the return of the franchise through different versions and compilations that we have been receiving in recent years. For lovers of the Taito franchise and shoot 'em up in general, this is the perfect opportunity to take on the Thiima army with our iconic Silver Hawk.

UnMetal is a parody of the first two Metal Gear from MSX. A humorous game that not only references Konami's work, but also many other elements of pop culture. The positive is that in addition to a parody, UnMetal is very well done and also works great as a stealth game, so the experience becomes much more recommended.

Actraiser Renaissance is a remake of Quintet and Enix's classic Actraiser released in 1990 that became a cult game in its own right. This is the perfect opportunity to recover that classic that has received many new features and improvements in its updating, although all not so well received. Despite the controversial tower defense mechanics and the graphical aspect of the action phases, the final experience is well worth it, and we hope that it will lead to the arrival of other of the great Quintet classics.

Tails of Iron is a 2D action adventure with RPG elements, and various soulslike formulas particularly framed in demanding combat. Despite the many RPG elements, the core of the adventure is combat, so the progress ends up being quite linear and the lack of variety of situations is accused. Of course, the combat is well implemented - with many familiar elements from the Souls franchise - and it is quite fair as well as demanding. Audiovisually is at another level for the quality and the care put by the developers. One of the indie surprises of the year.

Murder on Eridano is the second and final additional content for The Outer Worlds. We will visit a new planet, Eurídano, where we will have to solve a murder and investigate until we can accuse the possible person responsible for the crime. A slower development awaits us and with less emphasis on action, with a lot of text to read and conclusions to draw, but with a lot of house-brand humor.

Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions is a clearly focused game for fans of the Rocky movies. It fulfills as a boxing arcade -simple and concise- but where it shows its value is in the high level of fan service, reaching its zenith in a powerful soundtrack extracted directly from the franchise films and in the opportunity to play iconic boxing matches like Rocky Balboa vs. Apollo Creed.

Space Invaders Invincible Collection is a compilation of several installments of the mythical Taito franchise. The most complete to date with 11 titles -although with nuances- and that will delight lovers of the franchise and classic shoot 'em up.

Greak: Memories of Azur is an exquisitely crafted 2D exploration, action and platform game. With an impeccable audiovisual section and some new mechanics, we are presented with this metroidvania that departs a bit from the standards of the subgenre. Although the use of its playable mechanics is a bit unbalanced and the design of the title gives the feeling that it could offer us more, Greak: Memories of Azur is a very enjoyable game that has been on the verge of being much more.

The Falconeer: Warrior Edition presents the game by Tomas Sala that debuted last year on Xbox Series and PC, along with its two DLCs, the well-known The Hunter and the unreleased Edge Of The World. We will fight dog-face on the back of our war hawks while we are participants in a political plot full of betrayals. If the proposal calls us, and we are not afraid of some repetitiveness in the development of the missions, we will find a more than interesting game that is worth giving a try.

DariusBurst: Another Chronicle EX + finally hits the West. The latest DariusBurst title introduces us to a new Event mode but in return we lose the Chronicle Saviors mode from the previous one. Despite this, the gameplay of the title remains flawless and the content of the game very extensive, ideal for fans of this classic franchise.

Cris Tales is a beautifully crafted JRPG who knows how to innovate based on the most classic premises of the genre. Join Crisbell and her friends as they save their kingdom from the Empress of Time as we use the power of crystals to learn from the past, act in the present, and change the future, all simultaneously. We are without a doubt one of the most interesting JRPGs of the year, totally recommended for fans of the genre.

Cotton Reboot! comes to the West with a remake of the Sharp X68000 version -the best version of the first installment, superior to the original Arcade- where in addition to the beautiful audiovisual section, it modernizes the gameplay. But it also includes the original version of Sharp's computer, so the experience is complete. A Time Attack mode and online rankings complete this ideal work for fans of Cotton and shoot 'em up.

Astalon: Tears of the Earth is an 8-bit aesthetic metroidvania that knows how to give the genre a twist with certain roguelite mechanics and an interesting plot. If we also add a very well measured gameplay and a brilliant mapping design, we will have the perfect formula to spend hours and hours glued to the console. Highly recommended.

Sky: Children of the Light comes to Nintendo Switch 2 years after its release for iOS and the wait has been worth it. It is undeniable that Thatgamecompany have experience in this type of game and have managed to collect the best of Journey and translate it into Sky, with the difference that they have chosen a Free to Play model that seems to be working very well. Anyway, do not think that their business model is a handicap, because the adventure can be enjoyed from start to finish totally free, and it is one of the most beautiful experiences in the system.

Pulse of the Ancients is the first downloadable content to come to Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity as part of its expansion pass. We will find interesting additions such as the Royal Ancestral Technology Laboratory that will allow us to carry out missions to improve our skills, get two new weapons - interlocking claws and a Hylian motorcycle - and get a new playable character, the Battle Guardian. EX missions - of greater difficulty - and a new apocalypse mode complete the new content that this DLC adds, which will extend the duration of the original title by several hours, but perhaps a single playable character knows little.

Legend of Mana finally reaches our territory in an excellent remastering where the already outstanding audiovisual section of the original work has been enhanced. It is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the fourth installment of the Manna Saga in current systems, although it must be taken into account that the development of the adventure is peculiar and quite diffuse, which can be a handicap for some users.

Capcom Arcade Stadium is an application or hub that gives access to up to 32 Arcade games -30 of them marketed in 3 packs of 10 games each- that cover the 80s and 90s of the Japanese company. A very good presentation and a wide range of options that is only marred by major absences of several of the company's classics and by a business model based on game packs that could have followed a more traditional model. In any case, arcade game lovers will appreciate it.

R-Type returns after 18 years with a new main installment that knows how to recover the spirit and essence of the franchise but that does not look all it should with certain questionable artistic design decisions and some performance problems depending on which platforms. If you are a fan of the R-Type franchise or shoot 'em ups in general, Final 2 is an essential with dozens of hours ahead.
