Saros is a very strong, polished, and significantly more accessible take on the Housemarque formula, expanding on the foundations of Returnal without attempting to tear them down. The game impresses with its narrative, excellent combat system, excellent use of the DualSense, and the unique atmosphere of Carcosa, though it doesn't offer anything groundbreaking and can lose some steam in the second half. It's undoubtedly one of the most important single-player PlayStation games of recent months and a very good sign that Sony is still capable of delivering the exact experiences players are looking for.

Diablo 4: Lord of Hatred is a very strong expansion that not only advances the story and introduces a brilliant Sorcerer and a powerful Paladin, but also finally brings some order to the end-game and gives players plenty of reasons to stay in Sanctuary for longer. It’s not perfect, but Blizzard has laid solid foundations for the further development of the whole of Diablo 4. It’s an expansion that leaves you wanting more in the best possible sense: it ends, and you simply want more.

H.P. Lovecraft’s work still has legions of devoted fans, including within the gaming community. They will therefore be delighted with Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss, which will not only scare them but also provide plenty of exploration. It cleverly expands the aforementioned universe with futuristic elements, although at present it has not managed to avoid certain technical glitches.

Emotional, intense, and fast-paced—these three words best describe my experience with Pragmata. The credits roll a few hours early, but ultimately, I was pleasantly surprised by the character relationships and the excellent combat system. Capcom has another great IP on its hands, but will it want to develop it further? A lot probably depends on sales.

Super Meat Boy 3D is a highly successful attempt to bring the series to the third dimension, retaining the brand's core elements: fast pace, high precision, and the immense satisfaction of overcoming obstacles. Not everything works perfectly, as the camera and spatial awareness can be jarring at times, and the bosses clearly fall short of the excellently designed levels. Despite this, it's a strong, challenging platformer that demonstrates that Team Meat isn't cutting corners and can truly surprise fans.

It's a waste of words...

Life is Strange: Reunion is a game of paradox. On the one hand, it offers a safe return to the emotions and gameplay that made us fall in love with the series over a decade ago, while on the other, it ruthlessly invalidates some of its own legacy in order to adapt the story to the expectations of its loyal fans. It's a love letter written on the ruins of controversial decisions, and despite technical shortcomings and the publisher's haste, it manages to move the audience and provide a long-awaited sense of closure.

The game about the delightful mollusk is available at launch for just over a hundred zloty. In my opinion, that's a good price for this relatively short adventure, which will take you two or three evenings to complete. Darwin's Paradox's main strengths are its interesting mechanics and decent level design. If you're not sure if you're up to the challenge, you can always try the free demo. It's been available on all platforms for some time now. Be warned: this octopus is really hard to put down.

I had high hopes for Crimson Desert, but... I was more disappointed than thrilled. A single-player MMO based on things we love from other great games—it just couldn't work out as well as we thought.

I'm rating this year's installment exactly the same as the previous one, numerically speaking. The reason is simple: the most important aspect of the game has been improved, but there are still some issues I simply can't let go of. Regardless, I'm having a fantastic time, and I'm sure many WWE fans will feel very similarly. Definitely more Yeet than No Yeet!

Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is definitely the most ambitious, prettiest and most mature instalment in the series, which finally rises above the label of a ‘small spin-off’.

The project clearly lacks content, and the entry threshold for solo players borders on absurdity. At the moment, it's a half-baked product that simply loses out to the rival ARC Raiders in a direct competition for our free time. The developers still have a long way to go, and they need to implement significant updates to transform this promising foundation into a fully-fledged, functioning hit

Pokemon Pokopia is a surprisingly addictive spin-off that focuses on exploration, habitat building, and developing your own living Pokemon community instead of combat. The most fun comes from experimenting with ‘recipes’ for new environments, crafting, and terraforming, although over time the grind and the demands imposed by the tasks become more noticeable. If you're looking for a peaceful game in the style of Animal Crossing + Minecraft with a Pokémon skin, you've come to the right place – but you have to accept that it's a completely different experience than the classic instalments of the series.

A phenomenal experience - with a UNIQUE storyline created by fans for fans of the series - that would be perfect if the boss fights were more memorable and there were simply more puzzles.

Gear.Club 3 Unlimited does not redefine racing, but focuses on fun in single-player mode. However, split-screen gameplay should be treated as a curiosity. For racing fans who spend a lot of time with Nintendo Switch 2, Eden Games' game is a very interesting proposition.

Unlike the weapons in High on Life 2, I'm not overly talkative. So I'll just say this: it's nothing to write home about.

REANIMAL is an interesting game for players. And that means all players, because the game is so simple that literally anyone can play it – even someone who has no experience with gaming.

Mario Tennis Fever works best as a party game: 2-4 players, lots of excitement, and constant reactions to Fever Shots. Fever Rackets really change the game and add a cool layer of tactics, especially in doubles. The problem is that the content unlocks quickly, and Adventure mode is more of a drawn-out tutorial than a full campaign. If you're looking for a “couch” title, it's definitely worth it, but don't expect exceptional solo fun.

If you complain that today's game developers don't want to take risks and are guided by what's popular, take a look at Romeo is a Dead Man. On paper, little of it makes sense, but in practice, it turns out that every piece fits together perfectly.

Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties is a project that was realized after years of requests from fans. However, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio didn't stop there and tried to exceed expectations, which resulted in them taking two steps forward and three steps back.
