Bleak Sword DX thrives on its bosses, its laser-focused design for the classic campaign and its moody atmosphere. Sadly, the DX version adds three new chapters that overstay their welcome and some of the “visual improvements” end up cluttering and creating unnecessary visual noise. Still a solid game overall.

“Boltgun” is specifically aimed at Warhammer 40K fans rather than shooter fans in general. Auroch Digital manages to mix the “retro” style with some new additions, but some level layouts and the extensive use of arenas makes this chaos-filled trip less than the sums of its parts. But, if you’re even remotely interested in the setting, it’s a no-brainer.

Is Super Mega Baseball 4 the awaited sequel I was hoping for? Not exactly. The presentation is better, the gameplay is still fantastic and some new features – such as team chemistry – are great for those who, like me, enjoys spending time building up their league. But, if you’re only in for the exhibition matches and enjoy a quick round of baseball, you better stick to Super Mega Baseball 3 for now.

The three new Chaos Dwarf lords might look and feel the same, but their gameplay capabilities vastly differ when you reach Total War: Warhammers III’s mid-game. Although some reused mechanics, such as convoys, make the package less attractive, it’s a great addition to an already impressive roster.

“Zoeti” strides on its majestic and ever-changing gameplay mechanics and deep customizable systems. Sadly, the overall package is brought down by an average story that is tied to an unrewarding run system. Still, if you’re not over deckbuilders, this one will definitely spark your interest.

"Age of Wonders 4" is a huge step as 4X game and for Triumhp Studios. While some areas — such as combat and a bit of exploration — need refinement, the fact that you shape your destiny in a more impactful way than its previous entries makes it possibly one of the best turn based games of 2023 so far.

"Wall World" is a prime example of metaprogression done right. It doesn't drags the experience, quite the contrary, it enriches it. Along with a extremely satisfying exploration and combat, "Wall World" is sure to keep you busy and coming back for more.

After years of tweaking, Milestone releases a true competitor to one of their best supercross games, “Monster Energy Supercross 3”. Its sixth iteration improves in nearly every aspect of the gameplay — from physics to a better career management. The downside? Not so great pilot models and a wonky multiplayer, something that I am more than glad to look past if it means spending more time on the track.

“Company of Heroes 3” solid thanks to a foundation that was laid out years ago making the moment-to-moment gameplay feel sublime, but as it currently stands, is still has ways to go in terms of capturing the multiplayer audience whilst is campaign, although with lots of fixes under its belt, didn’t reached its full potential yet.

Beautifully paced, equally charming and heartwarming, “Meg’s Monster” is a must have for RPG fans that are tired of the behemoths of the industry or just want a lovely story about a monster and a girl. Grab a tissue, you might tear up a bit (or a lot) at the end.

“One Piece Odyssey” is an RPG made for “One Piece” fans. While you will get a lot of enjoyment out of it even if you don’t know much about the series plot due to its retrospective nature, it is better suited for those who either want to get into the franchise or remember some of its memorable set pieces. And, even if you don’t end up enjoying the plot, the combat – although easy – will keep you going due to its dynamic nature and amazing visuals.

“Warlander” is fully packed with good ideas and promises of a great game. But, as of launch, its myriad of issues that go from unit balancing to lack of proper communication between teammates. It’s still fun in short bursts, but don’t come expecting this to be your next big multiplayer game.

As brutal and beautiful as ever, Downpour fantastically expands Rain World in unexpected ways. The new slugcats are incredible to play, new accessibility features makes the game more approachable or even harder for those who are up to the challenge. A must have for fans, and still one of the most unique experiences from the past 10 years.

Even though far from essential, “Financial Districts” does interesting things when paired with other DLCs for Cities: Skylines, such as “Industries”. There is more freedom to get creative and invest in your city. Sadly, the game is already showing its age and the performance is very far from perfect.

Although some of the changes are minimal, “Together We Rule” steers “Humankind” to a better future with more cohesive mechanics and a much better AI.

The Valiant tries to recapture some of the charm of Company of Heroes but in a “medieval-esque” setting but it fails due to its shallow gameplay, clumsy storytelling and lack of unit variety. Questionable design decisions, such as animation tied so severely to how units behave on the battlefield only makes it worse. There are some good ideas, such as “heroes”, but sadly they are not well used within the game. For diehard strategy fans only

Victoria 3 goes above and beyond when it comes to simulate society and economy during one of the most turbulent periods of our history. Even though it lacks polish in areas like AI and military combat, its opportunities for creating production chains and steering your country are endless. A great start to what it seems to be another flagship title from Paradox Interactive.

Equally fascinating and frustrating, Scorn is a huge paradox. Ebb Software’s debut is a fantastic game where the desire to explore new areas is endless, but it still feels that a lot of their ideas were restricted by the market the team aims to please. A must for big horror fans, not much for anyone else.

Although I would’ve loved to see more complex mechanics and terminology, PC Building Simulator 2 career mode is not only a great way to learn about PC building and maintenance, but also a very relaxing game to wrap up your day. Besides, you can build your dream PC in free mode — which I believe most people will spend their time in it. Definitely recommended!

Even with all the beauty and event variety, Dakar Desert Rally drops the ball when it comes to the driving itself. Be it in a quad, a motorcycle or a truck, you will either lose grip very easily or get hit by the extremely aggressive AI. Not all is bad though, the simulation mode shows promise, but it would only shine after a couple of much needed patching.
