Nioh 3 is a smart evolution of a winning formula. Team Ninja successfully transitions to an Open Field structure without losing the tightness of its level design, while the new Samurai/Ninja duality adds a fresh tactical layer to an already stellar combat system. The game feels fairer and more accessible than its predecessors, removing artificial frustration in favor of readable challenges. While the narrative plays it safe and side content remains repetitive, the core loop is stronger than ever. A must-play for fans of the genre.

A free shooter that doesn't make the most of its best ideas: the potential is there, but at the moment it suffers from balance, performance, and repetitiveness issues.

2XKO is a mature fighting game, approachable on the surface yet deep at its core, with solid online infrastructure and a clear competitive focus. It's not perfect, but as Riot Games' debut in the genre, it doesn't disappoint.

Code Vein II is a missed opportunity: it expands the universe and streamlines the gameplay, but sacrifices challenge on the altar of accessibility. Between a difficulty flattened by overly powerful teammates and various technical uncertainties, it remains a pleasant title but lacking the spark necessary to excel.

Quarantine Zone: The Last Check stands out for its concept and emotional impact, making the player feel the weight of deciding others' fate. Weaker in variety, narrative, and technical polish, it lingers more for its discomfort than its game design.

"A game with two distinct natures that don't always interact well, wrapped in a pace that's a bit too slow. Fortunately, the interesting use of deck‑building makes Death Howl a solid title for fans of the genre.

A bold, imperfect dark fairy tale, Bye Sweet Carole impresses with its imagery and stylish visuals, but divides on gameplay and difficulty.

Sleep Awake is a visionary psychological horror, strong in atmosphere and aesthetics but less impactful in gameplay. A short, flawed yet memorable experience for fans of auteur-driven walking simulators.

Routine is a short but intense horror focused on mood over action. Not for everyone, but truly distinctive.

Horses is a minimalist first-person narrative adventure that moves with precision through the realm of the uncanny, drawing on the unsettling atmosphere of folk horror. Blending the language of video games with cinematic grammar and touches of grotesque and subtle horror, it delivers a bold and meaningful story about capitalist exploitation and class awareness. Despite its modest scale, Horses turns its limitations into style, offering a haunting, socially charged experience that feels as cinematic as it is interactive.

Project Motor Racing tries to pick up the Project CARS legacy by sitting on the more sim-focused side of simcade, with a decent variety of cars and tracks and a driving model that can be enjoyable, especially on a wheel with some assists enabled. Overall, however, it struggles to find a clear identity, with a dry, spreadsheet-like career, merely adequate visuals and sound, inconsistent AI and several missing features and rough edges. A project with interesting potential that, at launch, stays well below its own ambitions.

A side-scrolling beat 'em up with a classic structure, but which introduces interesting new gameplay features thanks to a combat system inspired by Marvel vs. Capcom, allowing you to use two characters at the same time. The action is fast-paced and fun, and there is a wide range of playable characters. The only drawback is the lack of available modes, which leaves you wanting a little more variety.

Octopath Traveler 0 is a fine addition for the series, unifying the narrative while expanding the tactical depth of its renowned combat system. It still has minor flaws here and there, but overall is as solid as the premises suggested.

Samus' return couldn't have been better. Those who loved the old chapters of the Metroid Prime saga will find everything they loved in the past, with interesting new features and stunning new graphics. It's a shame about the sections with the new bike, which are the least successful part of the game.

An ambitious, imperfect game, offering one of the richest free-to-play worlds for players who enjoy depth and experimentation.

A deep, demanding and hypnotic puzzle game that blends music and gameplay into one seamless flow. Lumines Arise isn't for everyone, but once it grabs you, it becomes impossible to let go.
