Monark weaves an engaging story even though it may rely on tropes and archetypes to do so.
Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden is a great follow up to the The Isle Dragon Roars. Many assets are reused and the core elements remain the same but the follow up makes some overall improvements.
If you’re a fan of classic Castlevania, you’re gonna like Infernax – and it’s so refreshing to play something that isn’t a soulslike or a roguelike and instead offers a true return to the days of old.
Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires brings new gameplay features to the table, but remains the same Three Kingdoms era slaughter fest fans have been enjoying the past twenty years.
PopSlinger is a tremendous game and one that may not be for everyone, but everyone who plays it will find something to love about it.
Infernax by Berzerk Studios
Grapple Dog is a fantastic platformer that nails just about everything it tries to do.
The King of Fighters XV is a solid 2D fighter on its most basic level and a natural must play for fans of the franchise.
Rarely do you find games these days that could be described as a combination of "ambitious," "thought-provoking," "hard-hitting," "hilarious" and "extremely fun," but somehow Not For Broadcast delivers on that front.
Joseph: Collapse is a welcome addition to Far Cry 6.
Motorsport Games have invested a lot into racing games in hopes of offering plenty of options for racers.
When taken as but a sampling of the entire experience, there does still linger some joy to savor in the combat and manner of challenge posed in Sifu. Set-pieces that unashamedly kick off with questions being asked and players put on the back-foot, even if said sequences never evolve beyond such basic a pitch as clearing out groups of foes.
It wouldn't be difficult to claim that Pokémon Legends: Arcues is the strongest Pokémon title the series has had since the DS era.
This is one zombie title worth exploring; just know it’s not the diamond it should be.
Puzzle design that truly excels in creating simple yet challenging orders.
Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection might not be the shiniest of Sony’s remastered treasures, but it’s a treasure nonetheless.
Reverie Knights Tactics is a good tactical RPG experience, but one that falls short of a top-shelf one overall.
Serious Sam: Siberian Mayhem is an excellent entry in the long-running series.
Dimension Tripper Neptune: TOP NEP is an easy recommendation for anyone who ever loved Space Harrier. It's honestly more enjoyable than Space Harrier II was and delivers a fantastic modern interpretation of that kind of rail shooter with a level of color and polish that's unmatched.
Windjammers 2 is far from a revolutionary new take on the original game, but it's a great sequel and terrific arcade sports game in its own right, continuing to establish Dotemu as masters of the retro throwback scene.
