Diablo IV is the perfect evolution of the series. The many new features make for a truly modern title, giving us an experience capable of keeping us glued to the controller for many hours, without neglecting the historical and most beloved features of the series. If we add to this a technical aspect of the highest quality, a very accessible multiplayer structure, and a huge end-game, we obtain a majestic title that stands as the best exponent of the action-RPG genre and is capable of bringing us plenty of emotions.

Layers of Fear is an excellent repackaging of the original games, with a considerable graphical leap, benefitting the atmosphere and the level of immersion. We rediscover, enriched with new content, distressing stories and environments that seem sprung from the mind of a madman, with a gameplay that remains anchored to the narrative adventure mechanics. Even if we don't find major structural improvements, it remains recommended to lovers of the genre.

Street Fighter 6 is yet another smash hit for Capcom, with solid gameplay to suit all types of players, an excellent training mode, and the welcome story-driven novelty of the World Tour.

In MotoGP 23 we find again the series' solid driving model, now further improved especially in the braking area. This, however, fails to compensate for major content and technical issues, making it difficult to recommend buying the game for now.

Miasma Chronicles offers us a great world with excellently implemented game mechanics and an impressive graphic and artistic compartment. A game not to be missed for fans of the genre, and an excellent opportunity for newcomers to try their hand at a solid and fascinating strategy game.

Amnesia: The Bunker throws the player into a dark and distressing atmosphere, which however gradually gives way to a much less terrifying reality, composed of a few problems and a lot of backtracking.

The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is inadequate in all respects. Something good can be glimpsed in the second act, but it is still a drop in a sea of mediocrity that isn't worth your time, and especially not worth the involvement of such an important license as The Lord of the Rings.

After Us is a wonderful, dream-like journey through the evils of the world, an epic with a profound storyline and setting that makes us reflect on the path of humanity and everything around it. An excellent platformer, with a respectable duration and plenty of collectables to collect. A must-buy for fans of the genre.

Planet of Lana is a side-scrolling adventure of rare beauty, superbly blending simple but never predictable gameplay with highly inspired design and a soundtrack of the highest quality. A title that every video game lover should play.

LEGO 2K Drive is a colourful, fun and light title, as well as a pleasant surprise. It's not a perfect game or one with great competitive pretensions, but it allows us to spend several carefree hours in numerous activities. Recommended for a young audience as well as a more experienced one, especially for social evenings thanks to the local multiplayer.

The Last Case of Benedict Fox leverages a charming setting to introduce an interesting Metroidvania gameplay, full of puzzles and a bit light on action and difficulty. Some control issues and lack of clear mission progression keep it from reaching higher grounds, but lovers of the Metroidvania genre will find a rewarding and memorable experience in it.

Ravenlok is a fun and easy title to play, but it suffers from problems such as inconsistent combat and an over-simplicity of puzzles and plot progression. A game definitely suitable for an adult who wants to spend a few hours relaxing on the couch, or for a child taking his first steps in the world of hack and slash games.

Redfall offers satisfying gameplay, with the classic flavor of Arkane games especially when played in co-op thanks to the synergy between the different heroes' powers, but overall it fails to fully convince due to a series of technical problems, dated game design, and an uncompelling plot. Still, it remains a good opportunity for intense online games among friends, hoping that future patches will solve at least part of the problems encountered.

Dead Island 2 manages to surprise by proving to be solid and, above all, fun, thanks to an excellent co-op segment and a great dismemberment system. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said at the narrative level, and the gameplay suffers from excessive repetitiveness, but it still remains a worthy zombie game for fans of the genre.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a solid, vast and ambitious sequel capable of satisfying both action-RPG lovers and Star Wars fans. The many new features introduced on the exploration and combat fronts allow for the gameplay to take a considerable leap forward, without abandoning the much-appreciated metroidvania and souls-like dynamics. The game lends itself to criticism in the plot and in fight balancing, especially with bosses, but despite this, it stays fun and engaging until the end.

Afterimage is a fascinating and content-rich metroidvania, capable of keeping us glued for dozens of hours through fantastic worlds, an elegant combat system, challenging bosses, and platforming stages to master. All beautifully blended and delightfully packaged, making Aurogon Shanghai's adventure shine as one of the best titles of its genre.

Resident Evil 4 successfully modernizes Capcom's old masterwork, improving every aspect while retaining the original feeling and plot. A must play.

Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened has a very good and interesting storyline, capable of keeping us glued to the end, but it suffers from a few too many bugs and gameplay that is a bit too frustrating and confusing. It is worth a try, but maybe after the arrival of some patches and a price drop.
