XBOX SERIES X: Even on Xbox, Silent Hill 2 Remake is a product with a dual nature: on one hand, you notice every detail, every crack, and every bloodstain that previously went unnoticed; on the other, you miss that unsettling uncertainty, that sickly slow pace that kept you glued to your seat. It's an ambitious, bold operation, sometimes successful, sometimes betraying the original. If you want pure nostalgia, be ready to be shaken; if you want modern horror that doesn't forgive, be prepared for some compromises.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition for Switch 2 leaves a dual, almost suspended feeling. On one hand, there is the tangible pleasure of rediscovering a game that maintains a rare narrative solidity and an engaging quality. On the other hand, however, it is impossible to ignore how time has affected the formula, making certain moments more predictable, some mechanics more rigid, and some design choices less surprising than they were a decade ago.

Project Motor Racing is a title that takes a stand, and it does so without compromise. It doesn't aim to please everyone, it doesn't want to be yet another flashy racing game that confuses realism with visual spectacle, and it doesn't intend to hand out easy wins or deliver a career that passes by without leaving any mark.

Kirby Air Riders is exactly what it needed to be: a refined, expanded take on the 2003 classic that channels a style of game design focused purely on player fun rather than strict genre labels. That freedom can feel like a double-edged sword, broadly appealing, yet not perfectly satisfying for any one crowd. Still, for anyone with a Nintendo Switch 2, it remains a must-try experience, one that's dangerously easy to get hooked on.

There's a reason everyone is talking about Dispatch, and it's because it's a successful experiment. AdHoc Studios' debut doesn't aim to explode with power, but to burn slowly, like the superhero stories that have understood they're not super anymore.

Syberia Remastered is a work that walks a very fine line: on one side lies the need to restore visual dignity to a beloved classic, on the other the risk of clashing with the weight of Sokal's legacy. The result is a re-release that works, especially when it focuses on enhancing what was already there without pushing too far.

A haunting dark fairy tale that channels 1930s animation with stunning craftsmanship. Bye Sweet Carole blends gothic atmosphere, emotional storytelling, and obsessive artistic detail into one of 2025's most striking and unforgettable games.

ARC Raiders is a one-of-a-kind project, able of redefining the extraction shooter genre through a deep yet accessible structure, designed for both veterans and newcomers. It's a title that not only promises rich, ongoing support over time, but also proves remarkably solid and diverse in content right from launch. As we wait to see how far it can expand in the future, if you're wondering when the right time to play it is, the answer can only be: now.

The idea of making a Sacred 2 Remaster wasn't wrong, but the final result is an anachronistic product, a ghost in a market now dominated by giants like Diablo 4 and Path of Exile 2, which fails to justify its cost and, above all, our time

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a diverse and well-crafted musou that successfully bridges the gap between hack-and-slash and action-adventure. It refines every rough edge of its predecessor while enriching its core formula with smart design choices. Deeply respectful of its source material, it stands as the best entry in the series and a worthy addendum to Tears of the Kingdom, as long as you remember it's a very different kind of game.

Once Upon a Katamari is the return fans have been waiting for: colorful, eccentric, and brimming with the carefree absurdity that made Bandai Namco's franchise so unique. While it doesn't reinvent the formula, it tastefully modernizes it with a more cohesive structure. It's a game that chooses refinement over revolution, but does so with genuine love for its quirky universe and characters. In short, Once Upon a Katamari doesn't redefine the series; it celebrates it in the most joyful way possible.

time fans, trying to attract even new recruits, while a little regret remains for some technical issues that dirty an overall extremely satisfying experience.

Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake is a philologically impeccable collection - one that adds without distorting, modernizes without overreaching, and brings back two timeless classics in their best possible form. Yet, it's fair to say that these games haven't all aged gracefully, at least in terms of pure gameplay mechanics and narrative pacing.

Tormented Souls 2 continues along the path blazed by its predecessor, paying homage to old-school survival horror without embracing modern action elements

Just Dance 2026 Edition confirms Ubisoft's artistic talent but also the franchise's stagnation. The experience remains solid and fun, with a varied tracklist and well-crafted choreographies, yet it's essentially the same game as last year, updated with only a few minor additions like the Party Mode. The "hub" model could have breathed new life into the series, but as it stands, it feels more like a way to sell a full-priced DLC. The king of dance is still on the floor-but he's just dancing in place.

The Outer Worlds 2 is bigger and better than the original, but, alas, plays it much safer. Overall is a more solid effort from Obsidian, and has much more content than the first game, but the surprise effect from the 2019 is gone. Still, a solid and very fun RPG from one of the most talented teams around in creating worlds, interactions and dialogues.

Ninja Gaiden 4 is built on solid foundations and a clear vision. It was a bold gamble on a legendary legacy, but also an opportunity to redefine the boundaries of hardcore action combat on modern PCs and consoles. Yakumo doesn't have Ryu's charisma, and we hope the undisputed hero of the saga will take center stage again in the future. Still, PlatinumGames' touch-despite the many departures-remains pure gold.

Keeper is a story of courage and perseverance, a tribute to resilience and friendship in its purest form. A small project with a huge heart, yet one that must contend with certain limitations - a rollercoaster of emotions that reflects both its narrative and gameplay. A unique adventure in its genre, which, despite some linearity and simplicity, manages to convey and leave a lasting impression on players willing to look beyond its initial appearances.

In a industry dominated by safe, risk-free productions, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 is a bold game, even in its failures. The Chinese Room has created an ambitious work (perhaps too ambitious for its own means) yet one capable of leaving a mark. It's not the sequel many dreamed of, but perhaps it's the one this dark world truly deserved: a flawed title, yet brimming with personality and vision.

A refines the series' formula with a leaner, more focused, and genuinely fun experience. Despite its dated visuals, Game Freak delivers one of the most enjoyable entries in years a "sequel to a spin-off" that carries the kind of soul we hope to see return in the mainline games.
