Formula Legends suffers from some pretty annoying structural issues that prevent it from shining as a lighter, yet still challenging, alternative for motorsport enthusiasts. The idea of featuring cars from different eras is welcome and well-explored, as is using Grand Prix races from each era to showcase the evolution of the sport itself. However, a racing game that doesn't hone your driving skills needs to urgently return to the pits for repairs.

Dying Light: The Beast, the franchise's peak, offers brutal combat, a modest open world, and intense nighttime chases featuring Kyle Crane. Despite a weak villain, repetitive bosses, few new enemies, and bugs, it is the definitive experience for zombie fans.

Despite navigation and interface flaws, Borderlands 4 is, without a doubt, an ambitious and extremely fun new direction for the franchise. For those who have always loved the series' stylized chaos, the adventure in Kairos is unmissable, and for newcomers, it's the best entry point since the first game.

Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian is a competent RPG overall, with good combat, synthesis and exploration systems as expected from the franchise. It's a shame, however, that the management system for the store and the town evolution was built in a way that makes it completely dull and hardly integrated to the other parts and that the characters and elements of other games in the franchise are underexplored and become a hindrance.

Marisa of Liartop Mountain offers an interesting take on the Touhou universe, blending puzzle and RPG elements with the feel of a narrated tabletop game. Despite its rigid structure, which requires frequent backtracking (revisiting areas to complete objectives) and distances the game a bit from its initial proposal, discovering solutions to challenges and managing the dice in combat provides a pleasant, albeit limited, experience.

Sushi Ben is an experience of exploring a colorful world with truly compelling characters, but that ends up as a much weaker game than it should be. The sum is worth less than the quality of its parts and, though it's still possible to have fun with the weirdness of the experience, this project deserved more polish to truly stand out.

In the end, Hades II is that rare sequel that expands without diluting. It respects the past without being trapped by it, preserving what truly matters. It gives us the almost tangible thrill of stepping into a room never knowing which version of ourselves will walk out. Between steel and spell, Supergiant delivers one of the year’s strongest indie titles.

NBA 2K26 regains the momentum lost with the previous title, although it still suffers from an excess of microtransactions that grant unfair advantages to those willing to pay. The other game modes, which are simpler, have become bigger, better, and more fun, leveraging the legacy that the NBA and WNBA have to offer while also making it a great showcase for their improved gameplay.

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter is a remake that respects the original RPG and manages to elevate the experience with its changes without forgetting its essence. It's a laudable example of how to reimagine a game, reaching an unbelievable balance between faithfulness and modernization.

Baki Hanma: Blood Arena lives up to what Baki really is. Inherently campy, a true fan will understand how the game manages to capture the essence of the IP as a huge parody. Cloning Punch-Out!! is a cool proposal, however, it relies too heavily on the player's good faith in valuing the concept over the borderline-acceptable execution. It definitely doesn't serve to introduce the series to a new audience, but at least they captured the spirit of Itagaki’s work.

Machick 2 demonstrates how it's possible to expand on a well-known formula without losing its freshness and creativity. Deadpixel has delivered a fun survival roguelike, full of references, with a wide variety of content, and a charismatic visual style. Despite some technical issues with the audio and a seemingly bizarre premise, the game stands out for its depth, humor, and excellent value, making it a great option for both fans of the genre and those seeking a casual and addictive experience.

Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree manages to combine emotion and strategy in a unique experience. Its deep narrative and the dilemmas posed by the sacrifice system give real weight to the player's decisions, while the variety of combinations between Tsurugi and Kagura keeps the combat dynamic and interesting. The evolution of the Shinju village complements the gameplay well, offering moments of respite between battles in what is one of the most remarkable experiences of the genre in 2025.

Even though the ticket hunt can become a bit repetitive, it doesn't overshadow the brilliance of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds. The hedgehog's entire universe was cleverly utilized in abundance across the tracks, cars, and soundtrack in a creative and well-crafted way. This is exactly what the blue blur's fans wanted and deserved. Sonic is back in the race, and to win.

Moros Protocol is an FPS that combines fast-paced action with roguelike elements in a competent way, offering agile combat and a well-crafted, dark atmosphere. Despite its good ideas, the repetition of rooms and enemies, along with the imbalance of some weapons, limits the longevity of the experience. The game shines in intense combat moments, especially against bosses, but lacks enough variety and innovation to become truly memorable. Still, it provides an enjoyable experience for fans of fast-paced action and quick-paced exploration.

Hollow Knight: Silksong impresses with the attention to detail in every aspect: Hornet's agility refreshes both combat and exploration in the meticulously crafted world. The impeccable setting brings Pharloom to life, making it a fascinating kingdom to explore, full of secrets and memorable moments. Despite this, some excesses and the punishing difficulty may turn fascination into frustration, requiring a bit of persistence. Even so, Silksong stands out as a memorable and grand experience, capable of both enchanting and challenging in equal measure.

The peaceful journey of two little bricks dreaming of outer space makes LEGO Voyagers a beautiful and captivating experience with its world of building blocks, specially designed for two players. This means there's no option to enjoy it alone, but fortunately, those who purchase it can invite a companion to join the adventure through the Friend’s Pass. With plenty of playful interactions and cooperative puzzles, it's quality time to be enjoyed together.

Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is a solid sequel that expands on the foundations of the previous game while exploring more contemporary approaches. The battles are fun, there are plenty of customization options for your armor, and a lot of content to explore. That said, it’s quite a repetitive game and artistically unremarkable, in addition to presenting a narrative that fails to effectively sustain its foundations. Even so, it’s an excellent experience for fans of giant robot games and similar concepts.

Metal Eden, from Reikon Games, is an ambitious FPS that stands out for its engaging combat and interesting mechanics, like the cores. However, it falters due to a superficial narrative and repetitive art direction. It’s ideal for players seeking quick fun, but may disappoint those looking for depth.

The expectative for Lost Soul Aside ended up being greater than the final product. On the one hand, we have fun and exciting combat, with a good variety of powers, items, and enemies. On the other, we have a confusing and poorly developed story, as well as its characters, who also lack charisma. Although the production's outcome is positive, it fell somewhat short, being recommended only for action-adventure fans (and those willing to bear a mediocre RPG).
