Just Dance: Decades of Hits gives its familiar party formula a welcome boost with a lighthearted campaign and playful quizzes that add context to its journey through music history. The varied soundtrack, accessible controls, six-player local multiplayer, and Exercise Mode make it an easy pick for parties and family gatherings. But simple choreography, forgiving challenges, and notable gaps in the licensed lineup keep the package from feeling complete. The Just Dance+ subscription also makes the base selection feel limited for long-term play.

SURI: The Seventh Note stands out with vibrant, culturally inspired art and an ambitious rhythm-based platforming concept. Its music gives the adventure a distinctive identity, and Ajira’s personal quest has genuine emotional potential. But visual clutter can obscure hazards, while demanding timing and an uneven difficulty curve make progress feel more punishing than rewarding. The game’s ideas are easy to admire, yet its execution doesn’t consistently build the flow or engagement needed to make you want to keep playing.

Boltgun 2 improves on its predecessor with larger, more varied levels, satisfying exploration, useful quality-of-life features, and a second playable character. But inconsistent level design, repetitive enemy lineups, and a campaign that swings between too easy and frustratingly difficult hold it back. Nyra’s inclusion feels underdeveloped, while branching missions offer little incentive to replay rougher sections. The pixel-art presentation and heavy-metal soundtrack still deliver plenty of 40K charm, making this a fun, if uneven, shooter best suited to fans.

FINAL FANTASY RESONANCE transforms Brave Exvius into a gorgeous HD-2D RPG, trading mobile gacha systems for a memorable story and deeply customizable turn-based combat. Its Visions system is a standout, blending classic Final Fantasy heroes with satisfying strategic freedom, while the soundtrack and world-building shine. Random encounters and backtracking can feel dated, some special animations clash with the pixel-art presentation, and the lack of Brazilian Portuguese localization disappoints. Still, its polished battles and affectionate nods to the series make it a new classic.

Stupid Never Dies pairs a ridiculous premise with a surprisingly heartfelt story, then wraps it in stylish, punk-rock flair. Its fluid combat, varied transformations, rewarding roguelike progression, and memorable boss fights make each dungeon run hard to put down. Excellent sound design and smooth PS5 performance add to the fun, though the lack of aim assist and limited control over each run’s fighting style can frustrate. It doesn’t reinvent the genre, but it’s a charming, confident debut.

Silent Hill: Townfall creates a chilling new setting in the isolated Scottish village of St. Amelia, pairing oppressive atmosphere, excellent sound design, and inventive, paper-and-pencil puzzles with an ambitious multi-perspective story. But clumsy combat, unengaging stealth, and a slow pace make the experience frustrating to play, while persistent stuttering still affects the PC version after its latest patch. It understands psychological horror, but its weakest systems make it hard to stay immersed.

Beyond These Stars puts a clever spin on city building by asking players to grow a colony on Kewa, a colossal spacefaring whale. Its demanding resource management, modular hexagonal terrain, and ecological choices make for a distinctive challenge, while the whale’s mood adds a memorable twist. The awkward building layout, unclear warnings, and uneven visuals can make learning tough, but thoughtful Brazilian Portuguese localization and a strong core concept help it stand out.

Belmont’s Curse delivers a traditional Castlevania-flavored metroidvania, with a versatile whip, varied boss encounters, and plenty of weapons and abilities to discover. But uneven difficulty, frustrating projectile-heavy fights, and softlocks can turn exploration into a chore. Long stretches of backtracking, sparse checkpoints, and inconsistent visuals further dull the adventure. Customizable settings offer some relief, but they can’t fully make up for the missing quality-of-life features. It’s enjoyable in moments, though best approached on sale.

Forever Ago’s greatest strength is the deeply human relationship between Alfred and Audrey. Their quiet conversations explore loss, regret, aging, and the importance of moving forward, supported by lovely art direction and a thoughtful soundtrack. The simple gameplay, occasional interaction issues, and limited sense of road-trip freedom keep the journey from reaching its full potential, and there’s little reason to return after the credits. Still, its emotional story leaves a lasting impression.

A monumental, content-packed gateway to the Xehanort Saga, with thrilling combat and smooth PS5 performance. Newcomers get an essential journey; returning fans, however, will find little reason to buy it again—and the lack of Portuguese localization is a major disappointment.

AION 2 impresses with a massive, visually striking world that makes flight essential to exploration, but its strengths are held back by underwhelming combat and a confusing story. Aggressive monetization limits basic features and progression behind subscriptions and passes, while the lack of regional pricing makes them especially costly for South American players. In its current state, it’s best suited to those willing to pay for the monthly subscription.

Galactic Racer makes every race matter with a clever risk-and-reward campaign, responsive arcade handling, varied vehicles, and thrilling high-speed battles. Its distinctive planets, immersive sound, and smooth 60fps performance make the first journey a blast. The roguelite structure loses steam after the campaign, though, and repeated runs offer too little variety. Still, the racing is strong enough to keep you chasing one more win.

After years away from Ace Combat, returning with Wings of Theve feels like rediscovering an old favorite in spectacular form. Its gorgeous skies, accessible arcade dogfighting, stirring soundtrack, and massive battles make the series’ familiar formula thrilling again. Yet uneven pacing, repetitive objectives, and story interruptions keep its new ideas from feeling revolutionary. Still, when the action clicks, Ace Combat 8 delivers an exhilarating comeback.

An atmospheric, beautifully optimized return to the series’ roots, E-Day pairs a memorable Emergence Day story with satisfying co-op, detailed environments, and excellent PC performance. Its familiar cover-based combat still hits hard, but bullet-sponge enemies, an underwhelming arsenal, and unreliable squad AI hold the campaign back. Even so, it’s a strong prequel and an easy recommendation for Gears fans—especially through Game Pass.

Minecraft Dungeons II expands the original with a connected open world, deeper equipment customization, and plenty of room to explore beyond the main campaign. The new Sift dimension, co-op for up to four players, and tougher endgame events add welcome possibilities, while familiar dungeon-crawling combat remains at its core. Repetition can set in after the first run, and occasional bugs frustrate, but it’s a solid sequel.

CONTROL Resonant takes a bold step beyond the Oldest House, putting Dylan at the center of a paranormal crisis in a warped Manhattan. Its inventive environments, fluid movement, and more physical combat give the sequel a distinct identity, while the mystery and eerie sound design preserve the series’ appeal. Some encounters grow repetitive, and the city can’t quite match the original’s claustrophobic atmosphere, but Remedy’s willingness to experiment makes this a memorable evolution of CONTROL.

Dune: Awakening makes Arrakis feel like a world to survive in, not just a setting to explore. Its alternate timeline gives players room to shape their own story, while the harsh desert, satisfying progression, and atmospheric presentation capture the spirit of Dune. The grind can drag, combat lacks polish, and technical issues still surface, but building a life on Arrakis, and seeing its vast landscapes from an ornithopter, makes the journey worthwhile
