The Norgan expansion is exactly what a DLC should be. It doesn’t just tack on a few extra hours of quests and a couple of reskinned monsters; it dares to upend established mechanics, stripping players of their certainties. The new randomized relic system spectacularly revitalizes build-crafting, while blizzards and environmental hazards turn traversal into a harrowing yet beautiful test of survival. The brutal difficulty, balanced by generous XP rewards, alongside the systemic chaos of the combat, create moments of pure gaming ecstasy. With an intriguing 30-hour campaign and an endgame loop that will keep you glued to the screen hunting for the perfect slot for your bow or greatsword, the journey into Norgan is a frigid, unforgiving odyssey that no Arisen should miss. The cold bites hard, but the satisfaction of conquering it warms the heart.

Control Resonant is a game dramatically torn in half, a title defined by stark contrasts. On one hand, it represents the artistic and narrative pinnacle of Remedy Entertainment: an exceptionally designed "weird New York" warped by impossible brutalist architecture, where defying gravity is a joy for both the eyes and the mind. The writing of Dylan Faden and the desperate portrayal of a crumbling FBC deliver an unforgettable, auteur-driven sci-fi experience. On the other hand, the gameplay framework—specifically its action—collapses under the weight of poorly calibrated game design. A tedious combat system, bullet-sponge enemies, and progression broken by level scaling turn encounters into a repetitive chore. If you are willing to make this compromise purely for the sake of the story and exploration, you will uncover a uniquely mesmerizing world that only Remedy could ever craft.

Gears of War: E-Day is not simply the return of a historic franchise, but its definitive consecration in the modern gaming era. The Coalition has pulled off a courageous and surgical feat, stripping away the unnecessary bloat accumulated over the years to return the series to its purest, most ruthless, and visceral essence. The single-player campaign, clocking in at nearly twenty hours, stands as one of the finest narrative achievements in the action genre. It flawlessly blends intimate human drama with a cinematic spectacle of enormous proportions, all supported by an Unreal Engine 5 technical showcase that sets new standards for the entire industry. Coupling this majestic adventure with an incredibly fluid and entertaining multiplayer suite (despite the natural need for fresh content in the short term) and a Horde mode that is deeper and more customizable than ever, the result is an absolute masterpiece. In a 2026 already packed with outstanding releases, E-Day stands tall as one of the best games of the year, rightfully claiming the title of the best shooter of 2026 and finally giving fans back the true Gears of War they have been dreaming of for far too long. The war for survival on Sera has only just begun.

Saros represents the natural evolution of a development team that has successfully reworked its formula without betraying its essence. Housemarque has crafted a solid and satisfying action-shooter, taking the frenetic gameplay of its illustrious predecessor and grafting it onto a progression system that rewards perseverance and mitigates frustration. The world of Carcosa, enhanced by inspired art direction and the brilliant Corruption mechanic, constantly challenges the player to balance risk and reward.

Its hybrid identity between MMO and single-player is felt in every single progression mechanic. However, despite the frustration, despite the aesthetic trash, and despite some unbalanced bosses, Pywel is a world worth visiting. It's not the game many were hoping for, but it's a journey that, for better or worse, leaves its mark.

DOOM The Dark Ages is an extraordinary game, a title that, as already mentioned, forcefully positions itself as one of the best of the year. It's DOOM to the nth degree, succeeding in evolving the formula without betraying its spirit; in fact, in some ways, it even returns to the saga's roots. It could definitively win the hearts of long-time fans, captivated by its level design and its more "grounded" feeling. It might appeal slightly less, but still immensely, to those who idolized the aerial frenzy of Eternal, yet they will still find themselves facing a deep, satisfying, and technically flawless gaming experience. It is, in my opinion, the most complete and narratively well-crafted DOOM of the modern trilogy, and that's why I was prompted to give it our Editor's Choice. We are looking at a title of exceptional caliber, a must-buy for every shooter enthusiast and another gem in the already rich Xbox Game Pass catalog. Prepare to unleash hell. Again.

South of Midnight is exactly what I expected and, in some ways, what I hoped for: a polished, enjoyable, no-frills 'AA' experience, but rich in character. It's not a game that aims to revolutionize the market or compete for the Game of the Year title, but it represents that kind of mid-sized, artistically valuable production focused on a specific story, which I consider essential in the current gaming ecosystem. It's clear that Compulsion Games has learned the lesson from We Happy Few, choosing the path of narrative simplicity (which proved successful) rather than pursuing perhaps excessive ambition. This game is a huge improvement compared to the studio's past work. The gameplay criticisms, however, remain, and I sincerely hope the team will learn from them for future projects. Despite its gameplay flaws, South of Midnight left me with a very good overall impression thanks to its unique atmosphere, its splendid art, its very enjoyable soundtrack, and a story that knows how to strike the right chords. If you are looking for a linear, artistically inspired, and narratively engaging adventure, and you are willing to turn a blind eye to functional but repetitive gameplay, South of Midnight definitely deserves a chance when it arrives on Xbox Series X|S and PC next April 8th

Assassin's Creed Shadows is a game of lights and shadows. On one hand, it marks a welcome partial return to the series' origins, with gameplay focused on stealth and a narrative closer to the Assassin's Creed. On the other hand, it presents some critical issues, especially on a narrative level, with a disappointing ending and sometimes uninspired mission structure. Despite these flaws, Shadows is a solid gaming experience, graphically and artistically top-notch and capable of entertaining for several hours, albeit without ever surprising. Ubisoft has certainly respected Japanese culture and the implementation of the game world works, but the sense that this could have been much, much more seems quite evident. It's a good game, that's undeniable. But this, perhaps, might not be enough anymore

Avowed was everything I wanted from Obsidian: a role-playing game where choices truly impact the adventure, and writing plays a fundamental role in the game's structure. It’s not a perfect production—small imperfections, less impactful voice acting, and a level of polish that could have been better prevented the team from delivering a title that could have been truly memorable. But in the end, it doesn’t matter much, because as far as I’m concerned, Obsidian’s new IP is perhaps one of their best projects to date—a true RPG that, while it may not achieve immediate acclaim, could very well become one of the team’s most beloved titles in the long run.

"Microsoft Flight Simulator 24 is an incredible simulator in many respects; from its gameplay elements to its purely technical aspects, it offers a comprehensive and top-tier experience, even surpassing what we saw in the previous installment of the series, which completely revolutionized the flight simulation genre and beyond. However, this time, Asobo's product has hit the market in a much less polished state compared to its predecessor, with a noticeable number of issues and bugs."

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl is nothing short of a production miracle. Despite the well-known challenging working conditions, GSC Game World has managed to create a project born out of immense passion and love for the world of video games. From its dark and mysterious atmosphere to its well-developed shooting mechanics and a game world that is both thoughtfully designed and excellently written, the entire experience is undeniably captivating. Despite a few easily fixable bugs, the game stands as one of the most satisfying experiences in recent years. These developers truly deserve applause for what they have achieved, setting an inspiring example for game creators worldwide.

Dragon Age The Veilguard isn’t the big comeback from BioWare we had hoped for; in fact, it seems like a project born out of countless uncertainties and shaped by an idea completely different from what we experienced in our 70 hours of gameplay. The game tries, and it would be unfair not to admit it: it seeks to embrace new elements, but it does so in a completely misguided and inconsistent way, partly due to shallow writing and an art direction lacking a true identity.

Starfield: Shattered Space is the first expansion for Bethesda’s space epic, a piece of content that feels objectively unnecessary in the game’s overall context. Despite the fantastic new settings and the idea of focusing the story on a single moon, which makes exploration more engaging, everything else feels like a clear patchwork of the full game—almost as if it had been cut for time and then brought back a year later to add a few extra hours. If the studio genuinely intends to make Starfield a long-lasting title, they’ll need to deliver additional content that is far more focused and polished than what we’ve seen and played with Shattered Space

Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred is not just an expansion; it’s a statement of intent from Blizzard, a clear sign that the franchise is alive and continuously evolving. With the introduction of a new class, a deep and flexible rune system, new areas to explore, and a meticulously crafted story, Vessel of Hatred not only expands the world of Sanctuarium but also enriches it with new possibilities and a depth that promises to keep players glued to the screen for months to come. If this is the beginning of expansion support for Diablo 4, then we can rest assured that we’ll be playing this title for many years to come.

Concord is a title with too many uncertainties. On one hand, the gunplay and technical aspects are solid, showcasing the commitment and quality of the development team. On the other hand, problematic balancing and a lack of originality in the artistic direction compromise the overall experience.

Anger Foot can be considered a good successor to Hotline Miami, although it doesn't quite match it. It's not an experience for everyone, as it proves to be very challenging and often frustrating, especially for those not accustomed to this type of game. However, the great level design and high-profile artistic component make the production by Free Lives and Devolver noteworthy.
