Super Robot Wars Y is yet another excellent sample of the franchise and shows all the features that made it a staple in the market. For those looking for a thrilling tactical RPG and/or to know a little more of the Japanese market of mecha games, this is a must-play and an easy recommendation.

Hirogami is a case that seems more interesting to watch than to actually play. The concept is captivating, the transformation mechanic is intriguing, and the exploration moments are at least engaging. Unfortunately, the clunky combat, hindered by the lack of enemy variety, along with environments that are thematically uncreative, undermine how interesting the overall experience is.

Cronos: The New Dawn is a testament to Bloober Team's maturity within the survival horror genre. The studio delivers a dark, complex, and engaging experience that consistently balances psychological horror with science fiction elements. While not accessible to everyone, mainly due to its slower pace and high resource management requirements, it stands out as one of the genre's most memorable experiences in 2025. For those who enjoy the challenge and immersion of classic survival horror, Cronos is a must-play title.

Hell is Us was a pleasant surprise, featuring a great story and robust gameplay. Despite low enemy variety and challenging puzzles for casual players, its positive aspects stand out. Rogue Factor outdid itself with this project, and I look forward to the studio's next games.

If you love brutally hard platformers, this is exactly what you're looking for. Through the Nightmares constantly demands skill from the player, and deeply rewards those who invest their time and effort into it. The game could have a broader moveset, but the level-by-level variety definitely makes up for it.

In its complete release, The Rogue Prince of Persia didn't manage to break free from the main issue it had in its early access: the little variety and repetitiveness. However, even so, this is a fluid action game, which is extremely satisfying to explore and an easy recommendation for this reason.

Echoes of the End is a good first game for Myrkur Games. Despite the predictable story and uncharismatic characters, the studio's effort is remarkable. The game stands out for its scenery, puzzles, and good optimization on consoles

Midnight Murder Club delivers original ideas, solid execution, and bursts of fun. However, its low skill ceiling and limited progression hinder long-term engagement. Best enjoyed with friends, it struggles to remain rewarding for solo players.

With varied gameplay in its minigames and alternating perspectives, Makis Adventure is a pleasant and entertaining first game from a solo developer, but it doesn't reach its potential and ends just when it could have deepened its good ideas. The three-hour running time is worth it for those curious and enthusiasts of compact adventures with metroidvania elements.

After so long in limbo, Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution has finally arrived with a fun adventure. Focused on the platforming genre — improved with elements like combat and metroidvania — the experience is colorful and humorous, as well as it has a good dose of challenge. While the game is very good overall, unfortunately, the "restriction" of producing a title compatible with an older console limited a release that had the potential to be amazing.

MakeRoom finds its own niche and can harness all aspects it offers very well, despite light occasional slip-ups. To those seeking simple comfort and an outlet for creative expression, you can’t go wrong with this one.

EA SPORTS Madden NFL 26 manages to be a solid entry in the football franchise, featuring excellent mechanics and dynamic gameplay. The game modes are ideal for those who are passionate about the sport and its tactics, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to play a full season in a simpler and more direct way. Furthermore, the content depth is lost without the inclusion of our language—which is a shame, as there are many fans of the sport here in Brazil.

It's curious how many games are nothing more than deluxe remasters, yet they sell themselves as remakes, while Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar is almost a brand new game from scratch, yet still has the humility to renounce the terminology. Considering it's the most solid game in the franchise in years, it's great that Marvelous is finally getting its IP right, something that helps us build anticipation for the next new title in the franchise. In the meantime, the effort spent helping the Zephyr Town bazaar regain its glory days will be worth it.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance manages to balance tradition and novelty in a convincing way. Joe Musashi's tale of revenge sets the tone for an intense journey, where agile combat and special techniques come together with well-designed levels full of secrets. The pace of the action, boss fights, and the hand-painted visual style are the standout elements, keeping the essence of the series alive while embracing modern ideas. Although it repeats enemies and stretches some stages longer than necessary, the game compensates with a variety of situations, extra modes, and a deep combat system. In the end, it's an experience that honors the Shinobi legacy and shows there’s still room for classic ninjas in today’s gaming landscape.

Boxville 2 is a charismatic, relaxing, 3 hours point-and-click adventure to fire up your brain and have fun for an afternoon. The beautiful, hand-crafted visuals and variety of puzzles are the highlights of the experience, but it fails in some quality-of-life aspects, especially the lack of chapter selection and hint system.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is more than just a remake: it's a celebration of one of the most defining chapters in video game history. By faithfully preserving the original narrative while simultaneously updating the graphics, camera, and gameplay to modern standards, Konami delivers an experience that respects the legacy and presents it in an accessible way for this new generation.

A large part of the strength that makes Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War – Definitive Edition unique comes from the foundational elements of the original game — which is by no means a drawback for the newer version. However, I believe there was a missed opportunity to elevate the classic to a technical level worthy of a 2025 title, without necessarily losing its identity. In the end, the project fails to innovate in key areas, but succeeds in presenting a great game to a new audience.

Herdling delights when its setting and music come together to convey calm and freedom in a unique journey of herding creatures, but these strengths do not sustain the experience. The gameplay is shallow and lacking in variety, with simplistic obstacles and puzzles that hinder rather than add value. The focus is on atmosphere and emotions, yet the lack of significant narrative elements and the weak connection with the Calicorns make it hard to engage. In the end, the game offers beautiful landscapes and memorable moments, but without the depth needed to make the journey truly unforgettable.

Sengoku Dynasty transports players to feudal Japan with a compelling mix of survival, management, building, and RPG elements. However, its potential is held back by technical issues that worsen as the village grows. Despite these shortcomings, the core design ideas are compelling and can lead to a satisfying rhythm once the various mechanics connect. For console players, it's a worthwhile option, though unpolished at the moment.

Mafia: The Old Country is an experience that stands out more for its narrative than for its gameplay. Hangar 13 delivers an engaging, detailed, and emotionally charged narrative that keeps the essence of the franchise alive.
