Apart from some uncomfortable sections due to commands that are not too reactive, this indie turns out to be a little gem to be played, maybe even in company.

Remnant: From the Ashes turned out to be a welcome surprise: the combination of soulslike and third-person shooter proved to work in (almost) flawless fashion, despite a sometimes excessive difficulty.

God Eater 3 is a blast. It has all the charisma of an action-packed anime and the gameplay that we all know and love. It is a great restart of the series, which proves that this franchise could work very well on home consoles, maybe even better than its portable predecessors.

Milestone's specialization in the world of two wheels is now evident. The productions of the Milanese company range between city circuits and the various world championships on track and dirt roads. In the case of Monster Energy Supercross 2, the real handicap is represented by the audience to which it is addressed, really limited especially outside the United States, where the AMA Supercross championship is certainly more followed.

Capcom has undoubtedly succeeded in the arduous task of renewing one of the most beloved chapters of its brand, so much so as to give hope in the same reconstruction work for the other episodes: on the other hand, with such a remake, it is easy to win the approval of the general public, whether they are long-time fans or people who try Resident Evil 2 for the first time.

As powerful and fast as a supersonic jet, Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown speeds through consoles. The debut of the series in this generation is one of those who win and convince, bringing back a historic series like that of Ace Combat. It may seem like an obvious statement, but this new chapter is preparing to be one of the most successful episodes ever, improving in every aspect and laying interesting foundations for the future of the franchise.

With the Remastered of Onimusha: Warlords, Capcom offers old and new players the chance to discover one of the most intriguing action games of the PS2 era. The work done by the development team is good, with a very positive restyling from a technical point of view but a little less good from that of the gameplay, which is particularly affected by the weight of the years and has to deal with structural limits that are decidedly difficult to digest in 2019.

From the perspective of a new fan, who wants to approach the series, this is undoubtedly an excellent starting point to really appreciate the Tales of and understand the caliber of the development team behind these famous JRPGs. In addition to having an outstanding cast and a compelling story, the gameplay is super fun, rich and solid at the right point, putting itself in a middle point between tradition and modern conceptions that we can observe in the current generation.

Ultimate: That is, definitive. A talking title, which does not lend itself to false modesty but is contemptuous and haughty, aware of the amount of absolutely overwhelming content that it puts on the plate.

If you love rhythm games and want to dispose of some calories accumulated during the holiday season, Beat Saber is a candidate as an excellent title to play in company, also thanks to a not excessively high purchase price and a formula that works very well, which make it a unique product for sony's VR headset.

Darksiders III is a desperate attempt to keep something alive on the verge of death. Although the plot is quite interesting and Fury one of the most characterized knights, the gameplay is far from enthant and innovative, indeed it is a step backwards. The new direction taken by Gunfire Games for the game mode is unconvincing, giving space to structures that do not go well with the philosophy of Darksiders. Moreover, the new ideas have not been even remotely realized with hindsight, creating several problems both in the design of the levels and in the general balance of the enemies and contents, except for the beautiful boss fights.

Tetris is an infinite title that does not know the passage of time, and Tetris Effect is nothing more than the incredible expansion of this, unmissable, creation.

In the coming years when we talk about open world the reference to Red Dead Redemption 2 will be a must because, to date, the title represents the best that can be asked of a video game of this genre. Rockstar Games has managed to assemble with great lucidity a truly exceptional product, innovative in some respects and peculiar for many others.

Despite being one of the oldest brands in the industry, the Mega Man saga has not offered many innovations since its first chapter's debut. Mega Man 11 follows this pattern by offering a great and very difficult gameplay, flawed by the lack of significant new features. If you loved the previous chapters you will definitely like the new one, but if you were looking for some new ideas and a better looking graphics you should try the demo before you buy the full game.

After 10 years, the Assassin's Creed series keeps developing and becomes a RPG with lots of mission chapters, objects to unlock and characters to discover. Be ready for a turn of events, a system entirely calibrated on the single player experience and of course an exemplary gaming world. Looking back, we all know how some chapters have been increasingly amazing; it is hard not to consider this one as the best episode of the entire series. This is probably the best Assasin's Creed ever created, although most traditional aspects of its brand have now disappeared.

Marvel's Spider-Man is definitely the best game about one of the most beloved character in the comics history, but despite the great efforts of developer Insomniac Games, the new adventure is not perfect, especially when it comes to boss fights, which follow the same pattern over and over, and the quality and variety of the side contents, which tend to be boring after a while. It's a shame, because the combat system and the swinging are two of the best aspects of the game, and the team should have focus on creating more original and complex side adventures, quests and activities to take advantage of the biggest features of Marvel's Spider-Man.

Dead Cells is a monstrous video game that managed to win its challenge with the audience. He wins because he manages to stimulate the player to replay, matches after games, even after the most scorching deaths and disappointments. And this is thanks to nothing more than an attractive graphic sector and a fantastic game system, varied and full of possibilities to experiment that strongly remove any sense of boredom or frustration.
