The First Berserker: Khazan is a Soulslike that is brutal and genuinely challenging, yet never unfair to the player. Its combat system, finely tuned, satisfying, and varied, keeps players engaged until the very end, offering a worthy title for fans of the genre. While it may rely a bit too heavily on NiOh's structure, it unfortunately inherits some of its more frustrating flaws, which inevitably prevent it from fully reaching its potential.

The stylistic choices and the intention to offer a game that challenges the conventions of the sci-fi horror genre are commendable, but the overall feeling is one of a missed opportunity. If you're a fan of the genre and looking for an experience that challenges your perceptions, KARMA: The Dark World is still a title worth exploring, but with the awareness that it never fully reaches the potential greatness it could have.

As far as we are concerned, Atomfall is the most brilliant and inventive title to ever come from Rebellion. It's fun, smart, highly replayable and well written, and almost forced us to begin a second run as soon as we completed the first. The combat system is basic, however (expecially lacking in close combat), and the AI routines are limited. A nice try overall, and we hope to see a sequel soon.

WWE 2K25 is undoubtedly the best wrestling simulation available right now, taking over from its predecessor, which it largely builds upon. This year's Showcase mode is less engaging than last year's edition but still works well, just like the rest of the package, which remains mostly unchanged. For wrestling and gaming fans, the series remains a key reference point (and the only option on the market), but the annual release model is showing its cracks-especially with the increased focus on microtransactions this year.

Xenoblade Chronicles X was the last missing piece to recreate the whole quadrilogy of Xenoblade Games on Nintendo Switch, and this Definitive Edition makes it justice. The team worked on most of the things that didn't work so well in the original (an already great game) and made it viable for both newcomers and old-time fans.

PS5 – Merging the two core identities of the Assassin's Creed franchise was no easy feat, but Ubisoft Quebec largely succeeded. The game boasts a vibrant open world, a wealth of activities, and a solid-if somewhat simplistic-combat system. However, where Assassin's Creed Shadows stumbles is in its lackluster enemy AI, which often behaves irrationally, and its consistently low difficulty level, even at the highest setting.

Atelier Yumia is the classic case of a niche series desperately trying to adapt to a changing market, losing what made it unique in the process. The shift to an open-world structure, instead of expanding gameplay possibilities, reduces them to a repetitive loop of activities, while the combat system, despite a few interesting ideas, lacks depth.

We've waited over six years, but the wait has been well worth it: Foundation is one of those city builders you never want to put down. Polymorph Games' title has everything you'd expect from a city management sim, skillfully blending creative freedom with careful planning. It's visually stunning, enjoyable to play, and its interface manages to keep even the most advanced and complex moments clear. The only real downside is the occasional bug and a few crashes that persist despite the long development time.

Wanderstop flows by in an ordinary way and, a little bitterly, we can say that it is "only" a pleasant cozy game with an excellent story and a first-rate supporting cast.

All things considered, some post-launch patches will be necessary to enjoy an even more solid experience: the publisher has already confirmed to us that several updates are on the way, but at the moment know that the launch version needs more than a few technical refinements.

Suikoden I - II HD Remaster is a good enough compilation to discover (or re-discover) two of the most influential JRPG of all time, both treated with respect and both still very enjoyable today. The budget Konami allocated for this project was probably minimal, but the effort put in recreating these two classics is commendable nonetheless.

A journey through breathtaking worlds, gameplay that constantly reinvents itself, and a cooperative experience that truly shines-especially when played with the right person. Split Fiction isn't perfect, but it's one of those games that, if only for its genuine intent, deserves recognition without hesitation.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection is a compilation clearly aimed at a very specific niche: the early fans of the series, those who have loved it since its very first years. For everyone else, including those who got into the TCG from 2008 onward, these games will, in most cases, feel far too "dated" in their structure to be truly enjoyable.

After hospitals and university campuses, the citizens of Two Point County now have museums where they can admire fossilized floppy disks, demonic mannequins, and the remains of Atlantis. The management sim created by Two Point Studios is far from a revolution and shares many similarities with its predecessors, including its unique sense of humor and numerous gameplay elements. Fortunately, the few new additions are also the most successful aspects-sending explorers to the far corners of the world to retrieve strange artifacts is both fun and rewarding, as is displaying and showcasing all the unearthed relics.

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is a bit like an old vinyl record reissued in digital: the charm remains, but the crackle of time can't be completely erased.

On the base PS5 the game ran very well in any mode, with very rare drops mainly in the passages from one area to another, but without ever suffering any evident ones, even during the most chaotic situations.

Like a Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is the exact image of its protagonist: funny, out of its mind and light on serious content and story beats. Long-time fans of the franchise will remember this as a Majima extravaganza, while newcomers as the perfect entry point in this long-running series.

Also, how the story continues and ends will be crucial. Such an emotional and powerful ending needs a lot of care and attention , because the theme is anything but banal or nostalgic.

Citizen Sleeper 2: Stairward Vector represents a step forward from the previous game and once again adheres to the canons of classic tabletop RPGs. While this will please purists, others may have some impatience with the static nature of the action, which despite the additions offers little dynamism and a really significant amount of text.

Avowed has a lot of strenghts, from its worldbuilding to its RPG systems, and it entertains for at least forty plus hours thanks to them. Obsidian didn't reinvent the RPG wheel, but considering how cold is Bethesda's first-person RPG throne, and how far still a new The Elder Scrolls game might be, this is a very solid effort that any RPG fan should try.
