Reigns: Beyond brings together a wonderfully wacky cast of characters and a space adventure ready to rock! The simplified mechanics leave space for a story and universe that's a blast to explore.
SaGa Emerald Beyond is a challenging throwback that hardcore veteran players will feel right at home with.
With Stellar Blade, Shift Up shifts gears into overdrive to create an excellent debut console experience. However, the entry fee comes at being able to get over the surface level characterization.
Kudzu takes place in a fun, creative world that plays, looks, and sounds just like a 90s Game Boy classic. It's a great adventure that will appeal to any retro gamer looking for an authentic old-school experience!
Harold Halibut is bound to elicit strong reactions from players, falling squarely into the love-it or leave-it camp.
Children of the Sun is a great title, but it can be frustrating sometimes.
After opening month with Sony San Diego's MLB The Show 24, things seem to be on track for another winning season online, but The Road to the Show is still a bit rocky.
Inkbound is an incredibly unique and entertaining roguelike. With turn-based and RPG elements, I sank hours into a storybook world filled with deep mechanics and characters. Whether playing solo or with a team, it's a game worth investing in!
Despite less-than-intuitive controls on Switch, Stacklands provides a fun and rewarding gameplay loop that any deckbuilding and roguelike fan can enjoy!
Pepper Grinder is another excellent addition to Devolver's catalogue, thanks to a brief runtime and exciting mechanics.
The Grandia HD Collection is an acceptable way to play two solid RPGs from a different era.
Princess Peach: Showtime! further proves that it doesn't require Mario to show up to save the day because Princess Peach can hold her own.
While Rise of the Ronin looks a little out-of-date as a PS5 exclusive, its robust choose-your-own-adventure system and Team Ninja's best and fairest combat system to date make it a worthy addition to the PS5's exclusives catalogue.
I can see why the original Dragon's Dogma was such a cult hit. Over a decade later, though, with the technology finally capable of providing the horsepower to deliver Itsuno's vision, stepping into the world of Dragon's Dogma 2 leaves a lasting impression far more positive than I expected.
Alone in the Dark isn't the most entertaining game, but it has some excellent moments.
WWE 2K24 includes a ton of content any current or former wrestling fan can enjoy. It provides various modes to dig into, highlighted by Showcase; and backed by gameplay that feels fun and responsive.

Pacific Drive successfully balances many systems and delivers a creepy, unnerving rendition of the Pacific Northwest. If you thought Alan Wake's world was spooky, Pacific Drive offers a pretty worthy contender for what is an outrageous and outlandish supernatural roguelike.
