"Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles 2" is a genuine and worthy successor to the first major video game adaptation of the anime and manga original.

While the atmosphere is good, and the puzzles are logically structured, they don't reinvent the wheel in any way. While everything is well integrated into the setting, it's not enough to distinguish it from the rest of the genre. Anyone who has a soft spot for this setting or enjoys FMV scenes from well-known voice actors should definitely check out "Dead Take."

At its core, "Killing Floor 3" is a more than solid game. The gameplay feels good, albeit underwhelming, and it offers varied levels, a good number of different enemies, and a sufficiently large selection of weapons to keep you interested.

We might have liked "Wuchang: Fallen Feathers" a little more if the introduction hadn't been so mixed. After the first boss, however, the game improves considerably, offering pleasantly fast-paced, powerful action, largely successful level design, cool bosses, and a motivating progression system.

The new features are definitely a nice bonus, even if they can only add a limited amount of extra fun to the already high level of gameplay. Therefore, our overall rating remains unchanged compared to the original Switch version, although the scope is slightly expanded.

"The Wandering Village" pleasantly surprised me. I don't particularly like most city-building strategy games because there's usually only one correct way to complete them, and it's easy to fall behind if you research certain buildings too late or don't build them quickly enough.

With the "Daima" expansion, "Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot" ventures into new territory – literally. The charming makeover for Son Goku and his friends, the lovingly designed Demon Realm, and numerous little gags create a true "Dragon Ball" feel

"RoboCop: Rogue City - Unfinished Business" isn't a technical masterpiece. The graphics are okay, but not impressive. Enemy behavior lacks depth, and gameplay doesn't reinvent anything new. And yet, the game works. Why? Because it understands what makes RoboCop special.

With "Shadow Labyrinth," Bandai Namco delivers a solid Metroidvania that scores highly both in terms of gameplay and atmosphere—more or less regardless of its unusual combination with the "Pac-Man" series.

Not only does the game look great and once again shine with a charming and detailed setting, but above all, it's incredibly powerful in terms of gameplay. Even if we could just smash half the world, we'd have tons of fun.

"Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream" is one of those little gems that can easily slip through the cracks because it simply doesn't receive as much attention as some overhyped AAA titles.

Whether you'll want to face the vividly portrayed horror of police is a question we can't answer. "Ready or Not" is not for the faint of heart, but those who are willing to give it a try can immerse themselves in one of the best tactical shooters of the last decade

There's much more to "Patapon" than one might initially imagine, and that's why the remake collection is still both playable and highly recommended. If you haven't tried "Patapon" yet, you should do so now!

Anyone who loves "TRON" and was also won over by the last film, "TRON: Legacy," will find plenty to fall in love with in "TRON: Catalyst."

"Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4" certainly impressed in our review and recreates the feel of the game "back in the day." At the same time, it offers more substance, especially in the long run. In addition to a whole host of unlockables, there are many advanced features, including multiplayer and pro options, online leaderboards, and the park editor. These should keep experts entertained for a long time to come.

Anyone who loves Metroidvanias, especially the classic "Castlevania" games, should definitely check out "Chronicles of the Wolf." The look, gameplay, and soundtrack instantly transport you to a dark, gothic, and monster-infested world in the South of France. Unfortunately, the game's running time is excessively long due to the game's backtracking, and the lack of save options only makes this more obvious.

The selection of mini-games is significantly larger in "Mario Party" titles, and those looking for something more story-driven will find it in most other Switch games. "Tamagotchi Plaza" is definitely great for a quick mini-game, but don't expect long-term engagement!

The gameplay is actually quite simple: You transport mail and passengers with their luggage to the desired destination, take good care of them, and collect tokens to obtain new resources.

Cruising across a beautiful and desolate alien planet on a hoverboard while listening to an atmospheric soundtrack is incredibly fun, feels great, and never gets boring. Unfortunately, the rest of "Star Overdrive" can't quite keep up. Most gameplay elements, like the combat and platforming, aren't bad, but they never come close to blowing you away. Crafting and leveling feel very superficial. If you get involved in the story and the world, you can still have a good time with the title.

However, we like the story itself even better, especially due to the once again high-quality production and the often philosophical references to the real world. We won't spoil anything for you, of course, but the finale is even more moving than that of the first part and leaves us with a good feeling about this unusual and unusually good action-adventure, which should definitely find its way onto your PS5 if you enjoyed the predecessor even a little bit!
