While there isn’t enough new content in NBA 2K22 to justify a full-priced upgrade, its online component is a marked improvement over its predecessor.
Life is Strange: True Colors is defined by well-written characters and a great presentation, but the plot suffers from a sluggish pace and a weak ending.
In terms of Metroidvania aspects, F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch shines, but the gameplay is clumsy and the plot is hard to take seriously.
Greak: Memories of Azur is an innovative puzzle platformer that tests your wits and presence of mind by putting you in charge of more than one character, though it’s held back by some odd difficulty balancing and unsatisfying companion AI.
Psychonauts 2 will be remembered as one of the best sequels. It's an amazing adventure game with a great presentation and well-designed levels.
Weak endgame aside, Hades is an innovative and refreshing take on the roguelike genre, coupled with fast, frenetic, and fun gameplay.
The Ascent offers a surprisingly decent amount of depth and is best suited for fans of looter shooters.
Samurai Warriors 5 not only reinvents the franchise's wheel, but it also sets out a formula that should give the Warriors series fresh energy.
The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles exemplifies Capcom's remarkable efforts in delivering such a difficult localization. These are some of the best games in the series, and they're now available to everyone.
Mr. X Nightmare adds plenty of new worthwhile content to an already great game that will please series veterans and newcomers alike.
Monster Hunter Stories 2 is a surprisingly fun game that embraces its genre. It is packed with content, has a stellar presentation and fun exploration. It doesn't matter if you are a fan of the series or not–this game is a delight to experience as a JRPG fan.
Scarlet Nexus succeeds in offering an interesting story and characters to establish its roots as an exciting new action RPG despite the overly anime aesthetics that are felt in its story as well.
Ninja Gaiden: Master Collection succeeds at what it sets out to achieve with a collection, albeit it doesn't add anything exciting.
Some lobby and connectivity quirks aside, Guilty Gear -Strive- is a remarkable achievement in the fighting game genre.
Biomutant’s excellent crafting system stands out in an otherwise mundane action RPG that shows signs of potential, but falters in its execution.
Despite the first game’s shortcomings, Mass Effect Legendary Edition is a worthwhile package for both series veterans and newcomers alike. Sci-fi fans who’ve yet to experience commander Shepard’s journey are in for a treat.
Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD Remaster is a good step forward to introduce newcomers to the series, but there is not much incentive for fans to return to it again.
Not all of the original's flaws have been dealt with, but what’s there is enough to make the remaster a more compelling Action RPG for both Nier Replicant and Automata fans alike.
While not a traditional JRPG, SaGa Frontier Remastered is the perfect game to play if you prefer narrative over gameplay with complex character development.
The PS5 version of Judgment is a pricey endeavor for those who already own the PS4 version. That said, it has a lot to offer to Yakuza fans who have yet to experience Yagami’s story.
