Two instant classics, one remote-only oddball, and a whole lot of party magic. Jackbox Party Pack 11 is a super return to form for the long-running series.
The duality of man, or in this case football management games. A horrible experience but a compelling simulation of football game management.
Battlefield 6 isn't quite as great as a couple of the series' previous entries, but it's still better than most of them, and is far and away the best AAA shooter to release this decade.
Ghost of Yōtei refines everything that made Tsushima memorable, with improved traversal and combat, and a haunting, vertical world that rewards exploration and reflection. Atsu's journey is a polished, emotionally resonant open world experience and a brutal reflection on revenge.
It doesn't hit the highs of To The Moon, but there is still a touching story here about living with your contradictions, loving your imperfections, and finding peace - not paradise - in what remains.
Respectable, enjoyable in bursts, but not the stuff of legends. The Order of the Giants doesn't belong in a museum, but it is a decent way to spend an afternoon.
Killing Floor 3 isn't as good as its predecessors, but is still better than a lot of its contemporaries.
Expanding on a story already told is a tricky task, however, Neowiz took a clever sidestep and used the opportunity to expand the lore even more. The additions are plentiful and whilst shorter, still provides plenty of challenge to returning adventurers
Phantom Squad, while decent in its own right, is seriously lacking compared to its contemporaries.
Soulsborne meets Fortnite with the weight and heft of bosses and combat expected from a relation of Elden Ring. Just beware the dichotomy.
Broken Arrow, while almost functionally identical to its competitors, has enough unique elements to help it stand out to its very niche audience.
Rosewater rides easy in the saddle, trading sharp puzzles for rich characters and slow-burning charm. It's a warm, rambling tale where companionship outshines the chase.
While The Alters tells a decent sci-fi story, its real strength lies in its gameplay. The unique mechanic of creating skill-specific clones adds meaningful variety and challenge. If you enjoy pulpy sci-fi with a clever twist, it's well worth your time.
Siren's Rest dives deeper but surfaces with less - a murky, meandering return that dredges up atmosphere but offers no real answers.
A gripping slow-burn of oil-slicked horror and atmosphere, Still Wakes The Deep delivers mood in spades - but its shallow gameplay and heavy hand-holding keep it from drilling deeper.
Atomfall The Wicked Isle is a decent, if unimaginative and short, expansion to a decent, if slightly more imaginative, title.
DOOM: The Dark Ages is a surprisingly safe sequel, but an unsurprisingly excellent game.
Quote not yet availableIt’s the type of title that forces you to constantly take literal notes if you want to solve its more complex mysteries, and one that requires you to have a strong tolerance for things beyond your control. It’s a somewhat strange title, and one that’s almost wholly unique. Whether or not that makes it a fun game to you, though, is up to you.
MachineGames has crafted a brilliant adventure which embodies Indiana Jones every step of the way. After the early hours getting used to it, and ignoring a few quibbles, what we have here is nothing short of must-play for fans, and really should play for everyone else.
The Last of Us Part II Remastered on PC is the best version of one of the best games ever created.
