Deadly Premonition 2 delivers exactly what fans have been craving for years
I’m happy to report that in a lot of ways, Iron Man VR is up to the task with a shiny new super-powered adventure, though not without getting a few dents along the way
Despite a lacklustre audio treatment and throwaway new content, this underrated 3D platformer makes a surprising return that looks fantastic and plays better than ever
A hardcore Western-themed real-time tactics game that ain't for the faint hearted
Tiberian Dawn and Red Alert may have gotten one of the best audiovisual overhauls I think I’ve ever seen in a remaster, but it’s still the same old story – for better and for worse
Featuring generation-defining game design, The Last of Us Part II is an unrivalled masterpiece that stumbles ever so slightly under its own ambitions
Incorporating RTS-style unit management into a (somewhat) fast-paced first-person shooter seems like a jarring concept on paper, but V1 Interactive has delivered something that actually works quite well…on the surface
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
The emotionally-driven plot and moral choices drives you forward, even if the technical issues, puzzle difficulty and lack of scares tries to take you backwards
A simplistic and repetitive, but appreciably cathartic shark-em-up that would be the perfect weekend blast if it wasn't so frustratingly undercooked
A gorgeous, dense JRPG classic made richer and more beautiful with a seriously impressive makeover and a suite of new features. This is how you do a remaster.
Saints Row: The Third Remastered brings the crass and crazy antics of Saints Row: The Third to modern consoles, albeit with some hiccups along the way
Though it does a great job at making the isometric ARPG formula more accessible, Minecraft Dungeons ultimately falls short due to its shallow nature
"A remastered and complete version of a divisive franchise entry that won't change anyone's mind but is well worth a replay for die-hard fans or anyone keen for a more considered crime sim"
Almost as quickly as it starts to get good, this genre-spanning indie horror drops the ball by tossing its best ideas out the window and overstaying its welcome
From start to finish, Streets of Rage 4 is a modern celebration of one of the best beat 'em up series of all time
A charming puzzler that makes up for some occasionally awkward design with a simple yet intensely personal and emotional narrative
While it's an off-road simulator with good vehicle variety and excellent terrain physics, unresponsive steering and creeping monotony damages the overall experience
Great storytelling, solid characters, impressive performance and subtle changes to the formula set by XCOM create the impressive spinoff title that is Gears Tactics
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
