Shantae and the Seven Sirens is yet another feather in the Shantae series cap, pairing solid gameplay, beautiful visuals and an excellent soundtrack in what is close to the ultimate package

Slapstick charm and some genuinely welcome quality-of-life features mean there's a lot to love in this chaotic co-op removalist sim, but like any renter will tell you, moving can get old pretty quick
Despite needing some fine-tuning, AFL Evolution 2 is an improvement in every facet and the best modern take on AFL yet
Final Fantasy VII Remake has converted this detractor into a believer. Even with its handful of issues, the richly detailed world and story are something to behold.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is an addictive mix of creativity, collectables and customisation in an endless beautiful island escape
Resident Evil 3 is a tight and slick action-adventure experience that doesn’t quite reach the heights set by its predecessor
My Hero One's Justice 2 continues from where its predecessor left off but struggles to find its own legs in the hugely popular MHA franchise
Issues are prevalent, but fun and accessibility make this a good casual romp in the online scene
A few missteps don't stop Nioh 2 from being a superb sequel to one of the stronger Soulslike games around
