Neverness to Everness is a gacha game that really has the potential to position itself amid the sea of currently available games. There are a lot of small issues that keep it from unleashing its full potential, but the development team seems keen on fixing them.
FZ: Formation Z is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up and run-and-gun game, making it an interesting combination of genres that work fairly well but don't feel fully utilized. The game is very short, though, and while it's designed around replayability, I didn't feel a reason to keep playing after a couple of runs. While I still recommend giving it a shot, I only see fans of the genre sticking with it.
Mina the Hollower easily cements Yacht Club Games' capacity to deliver high-quality retro experiences. The game takes inspiration from several sources, both old and new, and carefully fine-tunes each into a polished experience that is both curated and customizable.
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a cute experience that I had a lot of fun playing. While some stages do have some rather obtuse solutions to their puzzles, it's still a cute and fun experience that I enjoyed from start to finish.
Forza Horizon 6 is an excellent, high-quality racing game that finally gives players the chance to explore Japan with their favorite cars. Playground Games crafted an amazing open world full of fun content and exciting gameplay, all of which is backed by a stellar soundtrack and incredible direction on sound design. Forza Horizon 6 is a reminder that open-world racing games are still capable of greatness.
Blood: Refreshed Supply is a remaster of the cult classic Blood. This is actually the second remaster of the game, but this really is the definitive way to play the game. Nightdive did an amazing job with this remaster, including both of its expansions and the fan levels MARROW and Death Wish. It is still an old-fashioned FPS and has the same issues other games of the time had, but even with all that, this is still an amazing remaster of a great game.
Coffee Talk Tokyo packs the late-night café up and moves it eastward with a formula that hasn't changed much in over half a decade. The vibe still works, but the writing overcorrects, and the city it's named after never really shows up.
Bubsy 4D is definitely the best game in the franchise. That may not be a particularly high hurdle to clear, but Fabraz did so with ease and raised the bar considerably for any upcoming title to follow. It has a great movement system and finally gives Bubsy an identity that's more than just memes, despite being maybe just a tad too short. It's an easy recommendation for fans of arcade titles and guaranteed to be worth the time for any platformer aficionado.
As a bullet hell first-person shooter, Luna Abyss might not achieve its full potential, but it accomplishes everything it sets out to do well enough. A haunting world and an evasive combat dance results in one of the most creatively bold shooters in recent years.
Thick as Thieves has the bones of a great stealth experience with rewarding exploration, satisfying loot management, and a world that strongly evokes Looking Glass Studios’ legacy. However, leftover extraction-game design, forced contract progression, limited combat options, and locked characters hold it back from fully stepping out of the shadows.
Gamble With Your Friends is far from revolutionary, but it can be a chaotic, fun time with friends for a handful of hours thanks to its ticket system, casino antics, and ridiculous body-part sacrifices. However, with little variety between runs and most of its tricks revealed quickly, it’s hard to see much reason to return once you’ve had your fill.
STARBITES is a new sci-fi turn-based RPG that puts players in the shoes of Lukida, a young salvager wanting to make her dream of exploring the cosmos a reality. Players are treated to a fun turn-based combat system with some unique twists, a compelling story with an emotive cast of characters, and worldbuilding that makes players want to learn more about the setting of Bitter. The performance drawbacks on Switch and the repetitive overworld exploration hold STARBITES back from its full potential, however.
Clockwork Ambrosia is a decent Metroidvania with a really good gun customization feature. It's an indie project that's been in the works for 15 years now, since the team couldn't work full-time on it. A good game for fans of the genre, but one that won't really surprise you. It's a perfect title to play on the go, but it doesn't play ball with non-Windows systems.
Mixtape is a beautiful love letter to music and friendship. The narrative is handled really well; in spite of its similarities to other coming-of-age stories, the characters are realized fantastically thanks to great dialogue and voice acting, and the music choices are incredible. While the gameplay is limited, the mechanics are peppered throughout to perfectly accompany the respective story beat. Even though the visuals are lacking on the Switch 2, Mixtape is still a phenomenal experience and an easy recommendation.
Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes is a fantastic blend of both rougelite and RTS gameplay. Developers Alt Shift made a game that is packed to the brim with content, while at the same time not feeling too overwhelming. Suffering only slightly from the difficulty, this is an experience worth jumping into.
Directive 8020 is a step in the right direction for The Dark Pictures, giving its choices more weight, its cast stronger performances, and its horror more room to breathe. While the later episodes drag and a few clichés and visual issues hold it back, the journey aboard the Cassiopeia is still worthwhile.
SAROS is a fantastic experience from beginning to end. The narrative delivers a brilliant cosmic horror narrative with a great cast of characters, brilliant performances, a rich and intriguing world, and incredible representation thanks to a great South Asian protagonist. Further, the gameplay is a non-stop thrill ride throughout, that never feels too difficult despite the occasional spike in challenge. While there are some issues with the post-game and build options, this is a must-play for any PlayStation 5 owners and an early game of the year contender.
Magical Princess' story and characters may not be particularly memorable, but the surprising amount of depth makes the game a shockingly great time. Featuring tons of replayability and a reasonable price tag, Magical Princess an easy recommendation for fans of life simulation titles.
The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Warframe gives Nintendo fans an optimized and smooth upgrade to one of the best sci-fi shooters available today. Although you won't be spending too much time playing Warframe on Switch 2's short battery life, it offers a mostly steady 60 FPS experience with crisp visuals. Warframe is full of action and content for free, and those who get hooked can spend hundreds of hours locked in with their Warframes.
