LEGO 2K Drive is a very enjoyable arcade racing game with a variety of content to accompany it. Don't expect a complex title in terms of challenge, partly because it is designed primarily for young audiences.

The Force is powerful in Star Wars Jedi Survivor: an impressive sequel in every respect. Respawn Entertainment has created something with a lot of heart, bringing to life a work, which between gameplay, staging, level design and an all-around well-orchestrated storyline, has proven to deserve to be among the best video games of this 2023. Net of a decidedly improvable technical optimization and while not revolutionizing anything in the genre, Cal Kestis' journey is one of those must-see adventures and the Star Wars experience we have been waiting for and can finally enjoy.

Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores is an all in all a good DLC that introduces a new story (although it does not give particularly noteworthy moments, apart from an 'unexpected evolution of Aloy), new missions, weapons and that above all improves even more the visual compartment, presenting itself even more impressive than it was already a year ago with the main chapter.

Horizon Call of the Mountain is the first major PlayStation VR2 exclusive, a game that respects the technical/graphic premise of the Horizon series very well, certifying what is undoubtedly the most visually beautiful video game ever seen on virtual reality. Beyond that, Firesprite and Guerrilla's game is a classic VR title, rather linear and not a surprising gameplay. Undoubtedly an excellent product that works, entertains and expands the Horizon universe, as well as an excellent base for the PS VR2.

Dead Space is an authentic remake, revised and improved in every way from what we had come to love and appreciate back in 2008. EA Motive has not only lavishly improved the entire technical aspect of the original product, but has further enhanced the entire experience, making the Ishimura a frightening death trap, capable of terrorizing and concealing a story that is still fascinating today.

Considering that it is the first work by Striking Distance Studios, the level reached by The Callisto Protocol is certainly very high. We are looking at one of the best audio-visual experiences of this generation, surrounded by gameplay that is anything but trivial and a truly noteworthy atmosphere.

Batora: Lost Haven is an Italian production that convinces and satisfies from start to finish. The lively art style and varied gameplay make the work of Stormind Games one of the most appreciable Italian titles of recent years.

Grounded is among the most enjoyable survival experiences of recent years, and it is almost strange to emphasise this given that the title was not even supposed to exist. Obsidian, albeit with a small team, has crafted a stylistically original product, not without flaws, but composed of all those qualities with which the American team has always distinguished itself with its video games: quality writing, design and effective world building.

Isonzo is a very good tactical online FPS, undoubtedly the best first-person shooter dedicated to World War I (or at least the most historically accurate). Despite this, however, the game suffers from clear balancing problems that undermine most of the games, as well as some technical issues that almost completely overshadow the very pleasing visual compartment. Having said that, if you love online FPSs and are looking for a title other than the classic 'run and gun', then Isonzo could really amuse you, especially with a close-knit team.

Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels is yet another excellent DLC dedicated to the Forza arcade franchise. Playground Games has taken one of the third chapter's best-loved add-ons and made it bigger, creating the biggest additional map ever for Forza Horizon. The fun is assured, as is the variety and the chance to drive the crazy fast Hot Wheels.

F1 22 continues the good work seen with F1 2021, introducing several improvements to the game's physics system while making the whole experience even more accessible for newcomers to the genre. It's not a revolution, but Codemasters' will seems to be to further improve year after year, trying to experiment with something new like the super cars, which even if they don't offer any particular changes, they still manage to provide something new to the game structure.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is without a doubt the most ambitious and huge LEGO title ever made by TT Games, a real act of love for those who love the popular Danish bricks and the whole Star Wars movie franchise. Its accessibility, without ever taking itself too seriously, makes it a videogame for everyone, capable of entertaining from the smallest audience to the most adult, confirming an experience for all ages and satisfying for everyone. Warner Bros. has therefore hit the nail on the head, giving us an adventure that is certainly one of the best of this 2022 in terms of quality and content.

While not introducing many new features compared to the fourth chapter, Monster Energy Supercross 5 reconfirms the good qualities seen in the past: a lot of fun and content that will satisfy the most hardened Supercross fans. Despite a visual component that could be improved, Milestone has worked more than satisfactorily on the physics section, setting a gameplay that is never trivial and accessible to everyone. In the future we wouldn't mind seeing a bit more, but until then the Supercross niche can still sleep easy and enjoy a title that meets their expectations.

Gran Turismo has always been an extremely special title, far removed from the racing games you normally play: a title with a soul and with so much attention to detail for what cars represent. From this point of view, evaluating a product like Gran Turismo 7 was extremely difficult, because on the one hand we have Yamauchi's love for cars, full of content, descriptions and customisations, but on the other hand we are faced with a game anchored to dated dogmas, which do not favour the playful part much, immersing us in a game context where the A.I. is not very far from that of nine years ago and damages are once again practically non-existent. To the rescue of the game, however, we have an online component that seems to be the true soul of the title, which together with a satisfying driving model, make Gran Turismo 7 a must have for those who have always loved the franchise Made in Japan. Polyphony Digital now has the task of supporting the title in the years to come, first of all trying to introduce the interesting A.I. Sophy and improving the game just like it did in the past with GT Sport. If it succeeds, we will be faced with one of the best sim/arcade ever, accessible to everyone and above all of enviable quality.

GRID Legends is a solid and fun arcade racing game, not revolutionary but certainly not dull either. Codemasters has worked to improve on the critical aspects of the 2019 reboot, creating a title with enviable content and a revised (though not perfect) artificial intelligence. It's a pity that the story mode is a bit jumbled and customisation is reduced, but overall we're looking at a game that's highly accessible for those who aren't used to the genre, but also potentially satisfying for motorsport fans, assuming you're aware of a distinctly arcade driving model that's intentionally light and without any particular frills.

Dying Light 2 Stay Human is a solid sequel and one of the best structured open worlds of recent years. The great work on the level design enhances a huge and varied game world, where the gameplay evolves hand in hand with our choices, giving life to an extremely dynamic and never monotonous adventure. In spite of a revisable artificial intelligence and a visual impact between high and low, Techland has managed to create a production of absolute level, an experience destined to lay important foundations for a franchise, now more than ever projected towards a rosy and even more ambitious future. Considering the many references and the vicissitudes related to its development, the end result is undoubtedly less obvious than we would have thought, it is certainly not the revolution expected a few years ago, but certainly a fair evolution of a title that tries, often succeeding, to excel where others have failed in Action / Adventure.

Despite a turbulent development and many initial doubts, Halo Infinite succeeds where other FPS have failed: excite with a campaign level and entertain with a solid gameplay and well thought out. Remains the disappointment of some shortcomings at day one and especially a technical system suffering in many places and saved mainly by an unparalleled fluidity and an inspired art style. 343 has nevertheless managed to create a chapter ready to start again, through an incredible journey, decided more than ever to reconcile with the old fans of the saga and at the same time attract new potential users. The King of the first-person shooter on consoles is officially back, now the future is all in the hands of the American software company, which will have to prove that it knows how to manage and support the title for the next few years. Halo, is it over? No, this is just the beginning.

Forza Horizon 5 is the first true next-gen production of Xbox Series X|S (excluding Flight Simulator). In terms of production, the work is truly impressive and can only exalt the talent and skill of Playground Games in knowing how to create a video game that is both enormous in content and technically astounding. The Mexican Horizon festival is a real love letter to car game lovers, as well as a beautiful postcard to one of the most beautiful settings ever seen in a video game. Forza Horizon 5 is a masterpiece that will leave you speechless at every KM and entertained at every turn, ready to take its place among the best games of 2021 and therefore deserving of our award.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition is the right recognition to one of the most unforgettable videogame trilogies of all time.

Returnal is a work of absolute quality, a triple A product that is completely disinterested in linear stories and well-acted tales, to embrace the game in the most literal sense of the term.
