Dirt 5 isn't particularly deep, but it's fast, frantic, extremely handsome, and buoyed by a superb stunt track editor.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's Zombies mode has some of the best moment-to-moment gameplay in the series but its single map and lack of split-screen multiplayer sap its endurance.
Rhythm-based spinoff Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory is a nostalgia-heavy love letter to the RPG series, but doesn't have much by way of depth of its own.

Cold War's quiet times are more memorable than the loud ones, even if the story's ambition outweighs its execution.
I’m enjoying Godfall, even if it’s not doing much to wow me and the repetition of its missions is wearing a bit thin. It’s got some fun and satisfying combat, a few genuinely novel mechanics, and graphics that range from absolutely gorgeous to a little over the top – but unless its thin story morphs into more than an excuse to go stab stuff, the grindable action-looter structure doesn't seem like it has enough variety to sustain its otherwise expansive customization.
The graphics are rough and it's lean on content, but Monster Truck Championship's simulation-style approach works well.
The Pathless combines a simple but fun movement system and a world brimming with secrets to uncover.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla is a massive, beautiful open-world fueled by brutal living and the dirty work of conquerors. It's a lot buggier than it should be but also impressive on multiple levels.
Bugsnax is a puzzle-adventure packed full of charm, mystery and a surprising amount of emotional depth.
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales is a fantastic follow-up, telling a wonderful story while improving upon the fundamentals of the first game.
Astro's Playroom is a great showcase for the varied, impressive ways the DualSense can immerse you in next-gen games.
This isn't the most exciting remaster, but Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is still one of the best modern arcade racers around – and now it looks better than ever.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon takes some bold steps in a new direction for the series but neglects to maintain its balance.
