Silent Hill 2 is a great way to visit – or revisit – one of the most dread-inducing destinations in the history of survival horror.
Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred is a stellar expansion that hits all the right notes, but only feels like the first act to a larger adventure.
There’s no denying that the action on the ice looks better than ever in NHL 25, and it’s nice to see Franchise Mode get some welcome changes that help it feel more authentic for those interested in the sim experience. But when I look at this year's entry as a whole it's quite lackluster.
Starfield's Shattered Space expansion ably fills in the Va'ruun-shaped hole in the main campaign, but doesn't shatter conventions with new abilities that would make a replay more exciting.
EA Sports FC 25 delivers a few bright spots, like the fun and refreshing Rush mode, but stagnating gameplay and incremental improvements leave it feeling like EA continues to play it too safe.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is far more than some second-tier spinoff, combining the expertly crafted dungeons and item progression you’d expect from a 2D Zelda with the wild creativity provided by Tears of the Kingdom.
While Ara: History Untold is a visually captivating historical 4X with an interesting underlying economy, it gets bogged down well before the midway point.
Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster preserves the iconic original’s experience while including some very logical and welcome modern adjustments.
Tiny Glade is a building game so cozy it may as well be serving you buttered crumpets alongside its delightful dioramas.
Thanks to a ground-up rethinking of its ice-age city builder mechanics, Frostpunk 2's larger scale is less intimate but more socially and politically complex than the original.
The Plucky Squire is a beautiful storybook adventure filled with brilliant wordplay-packed puzzles and clever dimension-hopping mechanics, but it drags on a bit too long after it's already used up all of its best ideas.
Despite its name, Satisfactory is much more than merely adequate – its finely tuned loop of automation and escalating expansion is downright excellent.
The Persona 3 Reload DLC, Episode Aigis: The Answer, may be tedious to play at times, but in its faithful recreation are important lessons about the toughest parts of our lives, told through the lens of the series' best characters.
Enotria: The Last Song has fun combat and its sun-drenched environments are a breath of fresh air in the genre, even when the unapproachability of its RPG systems prevent it from taking center stage.
A handful of improvements mean NBA 2K25 has a few tricks up its sleeve to be pleasantly surprised by this year, even as many long-term issues continue.
Funko Fusion’s dull combat and repetitive missions means that just like your Funko Pop collection, it’s probably best left on the shelf.
The War Within is the best World of Warcraft has been on all fronts in many years, making this two-decade-old MMO feel fresh and thrilling again.
Forced online requirements, inconsistent AI difficulty, a stale car list, and chore-like progression all undermine Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown's otherwise robust driving and eye-catching open world.
When you’re flying around the pitch, Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions can be a blast, but there just isn’t much off of it to keep you playing long-term.
Fortnite is the ultimate video game playground – with a rich world to explore, snappy third-person shooting, fun crossover content, and a wealth of cool side missions and objectives, it’s nearly impossible to get bored playing Epic’s definitive Battle Royale.
