IGN's Reviews
Far: Changing Tides lacks some of what made its predecessor truly special, but it's still another lovely roadtrip to take.
Grid Legends is a sure step up from Grid 2019 – and its new story mode that looks all the way back to 2002's TOCA Race Driver is a cute and effective flex for a racing series with such history – but it's definitely treading water in some core areas.
Martha is Dead is an unflinching and utterly absorbing ordeal to be endured rather than enjoyed.
Elden Ring is a massive iteration on what FromSoftware began with the Souls series, bringing its relentlessly challenging combat to an incredible open world that gives us the freedom to choose our own path.
Total War: Warhammer 3 has the most diverse and most fun ways to play with friends the series has ever seen, even if network issues can still be a bit troublesome.
Monark has some good ideas on how to reinvigorate tactical JPRG combat but its repetitive level design makes it feel more like a prototype.
With an outstanding variety of places to visit and a strong combat system, Lost Ark is an extremely generous free-to-play action-RPG-MMO that draws a lot from Diablo – including its well-worn story about humans and Heaven teaming up against demons.
CrossfireX's multiplayer modes aren't worth the price you'll pay…and it's free-to-play.

CrossfireX's pair of single-player shooter campaigns are sloppy, soulless, and mercifully brief.
The King of Fighters XV still feels left in the past when it comes to its single player offerings, but what it lacks in ambition, it makes up in solid fundamentals and great netcode that make the online experience the best the series has ever seen.
It may look extremely basic, but if you give Vampire Survivors' clever one-stick shooter idea a chance to sink its teeth into you it might not let go for a while.
Far Cry 6 Joseph: Collapse is a brief, bland dive into one of the series' more forgettable villains.
Crusader Kings 3: Royal Court is the best kind of strategy expansion, weaving in new features that make running a kingdom a more complete and cohesive experience.
Sifu's brutal learning curve and unique structure that requires you to beat it in just one lifetime are significant barriers to overcome, but on the other side is truly one of the best modern action games around.
Rollercoaster-like courses and a wealth of moves make OlliOlli World a huge amount of fun to play, whether you're just cruising or out to become a true skate god.
Dying Light 2 Stay Human is an ambitious zombie action adventure that's packed with top-notch parkour, an awesome open world, and every painful bug in the book.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus is an ambitious revamp that successfully revolutionizes the defining Pokemon experiences of catching and battling, but is unfortunately set in a drab, empty, and at times tedious world.
Now free to play, PUBG: Battlegrounds' unique focus on massive zones and realistic simulation remain a lot of fun, even if its novelty wore off years ago.
