There are fewer than a handful of developers that boast the kind of catalogue and range Obsidian Entertainment does - which is probably why Microsoft ...
Anyone with the most rudimentary of passing fancies for the Yakuza/Like a Dragon series will know that it's something that often tends to err on...
Our first order of business, with regard to Tomb Raider IV–VI Remastered, is to note that no such games existed. Those contained in this collection...
It all started in the arcade back in 1994, with X-Men: Children of the Atom. That game formed the basis for the Marvel vs. Capcom series, and Marvel v...
Good news! You've just inherited a restaurant from your parents! Bad news. They've also saddled you with a massive debt that needs paying of...
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector follows on from Citizen Sleeper, but it keeps its distance. It's set in the same world, where the chilly vacuums...
It's no secret that I was not exactly a fan of the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I thought it was bloated, buggy, and more importantly, bo...
Ryu Hayabusa is back at long last, having failed to cover himself in glory with the one-two of Ninja Gaiden 3 and Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z (although th...
The Thing: Remastered is worthwhile and no mistake. Nightdive's lovingly made revamp might not paper over the cracks of the 2002 original, but it preserves what made it a cult classic, while applying subtle, albeit meaningful, improvements.
A captivating trawl through four decades of Tetris, with a stack of archive footage and other interesting tidbits, Tetris Forever is also a superlative collection of games and curios that will satisfy all but the most demanding of Tetris fans. Essential stuff.
In placing a lone hero at the centre of its historical Three Kingdoms story, Dynasty Warriors: Origins emerges as a much more focussed affair. Marry that to some stellar combat mechanics, and it's almost impossible not to get swept up in the overblown 1 vs. 1000 action.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is an independent game, in the truest meaning of the term, and, beyond the hook of its mysteries, you may be drawn to it by virtue of being tired of other things.
Odd, compelling, and ultimately engrossing, Death Stranding: Director's Cut is a genre mash-up with more than a few ideas of its own. Not quite a work of genius, it's nonetheless something that once again demonstrates the madness and brilliance of Hideo Kojima. Five years on from its original release, it's only gained in relevance.
Proving once more that there's life yet in its killer sniping mechanics and expansive sandbox missions, Sniper Elite: Resistance is another cracking series entry, even if it's not much of an evolution over Sniper Elite 5. No doubt, Rebellion is saving the big guns for Sniper Elite 6.
Expertly revamped and updated for the modern RPG fan, Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake is a great way to discover one of the most beloved entries in the series, with gorgeous sprites, lush environments, and all of the features you'd expect from a game released in 2024.
A sweet tactical twist on a beloved series, Leikir has paid homage in the best possible way: by doing something new.
It may not be nearly as culturally seismic as Final Fantasy, but Fantasian Neo Dimension is proof positive that Hironobu Sakaguchi is an RPG maestro – it's another memorable tale that deals with big themes and neat systems, and its arrival on consoles is more than welcome.
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered is a great way to play two underserved cult classics, with reams of extra material for the devoted.
If you worry that single-player capers with plush budgets and a modest claim on your hours are destined for a museum, hopefully this will delay the entropy.
In a lot of respects, The Veilguard is a vastly superior game when compared to Inquisition, but gone are the days that Dragon Age is a truly deep and innovative RPG. It's definitely more action than RPG these days, which is truly a shame. Nonetheless, it’s a pretty impressive package easily worth the price of entry.
