Trails through Daybreak is a good introduction for the new saga of the trails series. While the new, unpolished hack n slash gameplay has a lot of flaws, the story and character are as good as ever and give us hope for a bright future

Shadow of Erdtree is the largest DLC the gaming world has received to date. Shadow Realm turns out to be a very valuable addition to Lands Between, with beautiful new areas, amazing new boss fights, and a fulfilling new level-up system that gives the feeling of being in the Elden Ring Endgame.

Spy x Anya is an empty game. While it has some nice elements, mainly it's fidelity to the manga, the majority of the game feels poorly crafted. The technical side is simply terrible, and the minigames feel clunky and awkward to play.

The Final Shape is a concentrate of content, beautiful ideas and interesting innovations from both a technical and mechanical point of view. Now more than ever, Bungie teaches the gaming industry how to create a GaaS expansion ten years after the release of the first Destiny chapter.

The Rogue Prince of Persia is a roguelike of great potential, with solid, compelling gameplay and an artistic treatment that is well suited to Ubisoft's historic franchise. However, Early Access highlights how important variety and content are in this genre of games. Its content is still immature and we look forward to seeing more of it.

Senua's Saga Hellblade 2 is a fair sequel to the first title, improving on all its special features such as the technical and sound compartment and a very interesting introspective narrative. However, the second chapter still decides to leave behind some elements that were evidently never considered a priority for the project, such as the gameplay that at times interrupts the rhythm of the story.

Dead Island 2 offers a zombie-themed adventure that is entertaining both in terms of atmosphere and gameplay. There is also an unexpected attention to detail in terms of graphics. However, the plot fails to be anywhere near as original as the characterisation of its characters.

Indika is a strange journey, with a plethora of complex and important social themes for the player to think of. Even though the gameplay feels repetitive, the unique experience surely makes up for it.

While everything in Sand Land is good, nothing really excels; the gameplay and combat is generally fun, but gets repetitive and tedious after a while; the story is good and surprisingly mature compared to other Akira Toriyama works’, but sometimes gets too superficial, making the core message a bit weak.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is part of the best FF-themed project of the last years. The combat system is even better than before, with great world building and characters backstories. While some aspects might be flawed - namely out of combat gameplay, world interactions and the ending- the game clearly has extraordinary quality overall.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is the work that Hideaki Itsuno would have liked to crown twelve years ago, but without the proper means and finances, he never managed to complete. The title presents itself as an action RPG certainly not without flaws, many of which lie in the optimisation of the title due to the perhaps improper use of a graphics engine not designed for an open world. The real strength of Dragon's Dogma 2, however, lies in its portrayal of a world as vast as it is alive and full of adventures to be experienced, thanks also to a revolutionary AI present in very few other productions.

Hi-Fi Rush arrives on PlayStation 5 in its best form, offering its wonderful mix of action and rythym gameplay. Fun to play, wonderful to look at and satisfying to listen to, Tango Gameworks' title could only do better in the implementation of DualSense, because otherwise I wouldn't change a thing.

Unicorn Overlord is simply a masterpiece: a game that brings something never seen before in the tactical rpg genre, with its unique gameplay and narrative. Stunning visuals and great longevity are the cherry on top for the best modern strategy game for console.

Nocturne is a timeless classic that retains undeniable value to this day: narratively and tactically deep, challenging, long-lived and immortal, but this remaster limits itself to the bare minimum without adding anything noteworthy.

Helldivers 2 is an excellent Live Service that has the ability to capture players and keep them glued to the screen for hours on end. So many mechanics that are accessible to all are the key to the success of Arrowhead Games Studio's title, which must continue to support the game not only on the content side, but also on the technical side.

Persona 3 Reload is a bridge between the old and the new. It is perfect both to newcomers who want to approach the Persona franchise and delve into a historical title in the series, and to those who already know the impact this videogame had in the past and want to relive those same feelings.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a contradictory game: it has a good narrative and a great gameplay, but all is cancelled by a live service structure that limits its depth and variety. The game is worth for the fans only for the main campaign.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink is an entertaining title, beautiful to look at and play, especially with friends. Unfortunately, the fast pacing of the story gives too little space to in-depth analysis of the characters. The technical side is not exceptional and not being able to handle 4K at 60 fps on PS5 today is a serious flaw for a developer like Cygames. However, all this problems magically disappear in front of the vastness of the sky of Zegagrande, accompanied by the music of Tsutomu Narita and the great Nobuo Uematsu.

What The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered lacks is consistency. It's been too few years to see the potential of a remastered game, especially when the original title has a sublime technical compartment. The Lost Levels and Campaign Commentary turn out to be the best extra content, while the No Return mode is out of context.

Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising improves on everything that was the previous chapterz It adds content and makes what was already there much more enjoyable and easily accessible, thanks also to the presence of a free-to-play mode that allows you to play with a limited number of characters in all the modes present in the full game.
