With a new mode and a new mechanic Battlefield V goes back to World War II. It looks better than ever in the diverse maps, but it's a shame the modes in multiplayer feel kind of similar. The War Stories are excellent though, just as the focus on squads.

Although there's fun to be had in Fallout 76, the game itself feels like it has an identity crisis. Besides that, it definitely feels like an unfinished game. Even for former Fallout standards it has an abundance of bugs.

Carnival Games brings a digital carnival to the consoles. With its minigames you can entertain brilliantly on a party. Unfortunately the lack of original games affect the replayability and there is simply too much to unlock. It just ruins the fun.

LEGO Harry Potter doesn't bring anything new to the LEGO-formula, but the Harry Potter world is still great. Characters feel unique even though casting spells isn't always fun. Thanks to the music and coop you'll forget about that quickly though.

NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 is a great game for anyone who loves over-the-top arcade basketball games. It is great fun even though it's a grind without using microtransactions.

Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu is a fun new take on the classic Pokémon formula, that makes the deeper systems more accessible for newer players. Sadly the controls are obtuse and the game is a little on the easy side

The original three Spyro games have been completely remade and you can feel it when it comes to the controls and camera. Luckily it goes unnoticed more often than not as you’ll be smitten with a fairy-tale story and beautiful music.

Diablo 3 feels at home on the Nintendo Switch. With a constant 60 fps and the availability to play anywhere, it's a great addition to the family. The only sad part is that sSeasonal can't be played offline and the controls sometimes feel a bit clunky.

11-11: Memories Retold tells a beautiful story with multiple endings and is a must-play for anyone that loves a story-based game. The story might be a short one but it holds some amazing voice-acting. It's a shame the style doesn't quite work though.

It's plain and simple: Tetris Effect is the best Tetris-game ever. It looks gorgeous and VR is amazing. Just buy this game.

The first Spider-Man DLC is short, but a great deal of fun thanks to a great story. It feels like the start of the story though and is not stand-alone, except for the side-missions. Those offer a change of pace and make the package worth it in the end.

Call of Cthulhu is an interesting retelling of H.P. Lovecrafts famous story. The game mixes aspects of detective- and horror games and does it well. Fear plays an extra factor as well throughout the story. The fun only gets spoiled by some small mistakes.

Rockstar has delivered a of a game and that is fine, because after GTA V, the studio has not released a single game apart from the L.A. Noire remaster. You can tell from everything that preceded the release of this action adventure game for many years of work. But as long as the development lasted, so many hours of fun you will have!

A fantastic character creator and a funny story makes you want to play in the DC-world. The levels might be unbalanced sometimes but the extra content in the open world makes up for that. Playing together is a blast even though splitscreen isn’t dynamic.

Black Ops 4 brings the fun and dares to change. There might not be a campaign, but its replacement called Blackout is so much fun to play. Even if Battle Royale isn't your thing, you can still find enjoyment in the revamped Zombies and the multiplayer modes.

Don't be fooled by its childish name and seemingly simple presentation: Astro Bot Rescue Mission is by far the best game you can buy for PlayStation VR right now. The game looks beautifully colorful, is packed with memorable VR moments, and with the bots has perhaps the most adorable figures in the history of the game industry in the house. The first real PSVR killer has arrived, folks!

PlayGround Games has without a doubt outdone itself in this fourth installment of Horizon. The location suggests you'll end up in a drizzly place, but the game has more under its hood than you think possible. The map is huge and offers you numerous in addition to a varying landscape all kinds of cool races and activities.

Origins was a great game, but Ubisoft exceeded expectations with its successor. The story is long and personal with many choices to make, it’s your own odyssey. Greece is huge and detailed, so it’ll take some time before you're done with the game. That’s nothing but positive.

Valkyria Chronicles 4 went back to the roots of the original. The gameplay has stayed nearly the same after nine years, with the exception of the new Grenadier class, but it still stands as firm as a rock. If you enjoyed the original, you will enjoy VC4.

Divinity Original Sin II Definitive Edition is a near perfect RPG. It does everything well, from story, characters, combat, dialog and of course co-op. The refinements also make the game accessible for a much broader audience that need to play this game.
