This is a really great PC Port. While there may not be any new post-launch content here, it's just a prettier version of an already excellent game. For those who haven't played this game and have the PC specs to run it well, God of War for the PC is a must-play!
Shadow of the Erdtree is another top-notch Souls DLC by FromSoftware as it features a massive and dense new map that's a joy to explore, all while adding tough unique bosses and a load of new weapons that will make you want to replay the game.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth serves as a heartfelt tribute to the enduring legacy of one of gaming's most iconic titles. It's a labor of love that pays homage to the original while boldly venturing into new territory. By reimagining the beloved 1997 classic for modern audiences, Rebirth breathes new life into every corner of its meticulously crafted setting, unforgettable characters, and world-class storytelling. Gone are the limitations of 90s technology, replaced by stunning visuals, engaging gameplay mechanics, and a narrative depth that remains to be emotionally resonant at its very core. Yet, amidst the modern advancements, lies a profound respect for the source material—a recognition of the countless hours fans spent in the original, expanding upon it in ways that were once unimaginable. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is truly the best reward one can get for being such an avid fan of the series and is truly a masterpiece of RPG Gaming.
7 years after its predecessor, the King of the fighting genre makes a glorious return with Tekken 8 to remind everyone who does it best.
Destiny 2: The Witch Queen is the franchise’s best expansion to date. A great story coupled with exciting new gameplay changes make this an amazing experience we have all been waiting and asking for. The future is looking really bright for the game and the only complaint I have is that I have to wait for all of it.
Elden Ring might just be FromSoftware's masterpiece thanks to its perfected combat, incredible open world design, and some of the best in the Soulsborne series. This game is practically a 10/10 in terms of pure gameplay, though the noticeable framerate drops deduct half a point from its score.
The Last of Us Part 1 Remake features massive improvements over the PS4 remaster when it comes to graphics, gameplay, and accessibility. While it may not feel like a full-blown remake at times given how well the original holds up to this day, the game is still highly recommended, especially for those who have yet to play the original.
God of War Ragnarok is a massive refining of what was achieved back in 2018. Engaging gameplay, a wide variety of stunning worlds to explore, and some of the best storytelling in gaming make this experience a must for anyone.
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition on PC is the definitive way to play the game and its expansion. It was an already impressive title on the PS5 and now, it is elevated into new heights with the best-in-the-industry optimization. Incredible performance, insane visual fidelity, on top of an already phenomenal game to begin with.

Gran Turismo 7 is a racing game that has something for everyone, whether it's car lovers, motorsport enthusiasts, or casual players. Not only is the campaign back, it also features compelling core gameplay, and is an excellent technical showcase for the PS5.
Horizon Forbidden West is a worthy sequel to Zero Dawn. While the second game in Aloy's journey doesn't bring anything groundbreaking, it does come with a much bigger scale, all while introducing enhancements that make exploration easier and combat deeper. But the reason to play this game is to get lost in the deep world and lore.
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is a must-play for players who want to experience an impressive story with memorable characters, as well as surprisingly compelling real-time strategy gameplay.
Stray is a surprisingly fun game with beautiful visuals and just the right amount of challenge. If you're a pet owner who's into puzzle platformers, you'll have a great time here.
Svoboda 1945: Liberation is a unique game that's touching and heartfelt. Even if the gameplay is quite simple, it takes advantage of the interactive medium well to tell its heartbreakingly beautiful story about the aftermath of World War II.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is an incredible experience that simply should not be missed. The game is fully committed to immersing players with fantastic world-building, top tier visual presentation, world-class audio design, and a narrative that continues to not shy away from the complex themes it combines with such dense mythology. Ninja Theory has themselves yet another all-timer with this one.
Intense, engaging, and unquestionably a title that remains focused on realizing a vision that has been developed since the original, Dragon's Dogma 2 is a crowning achievement when it comes to providing an incredible hardcore RPG experience. This is a game that is not afraid to be different, and it is so much more enticing because of it.
Using Astro’s Playroom as a template, Team Asobi delivered a bigger and better 3D platformer with Astro Bot. This latest series entry features creative levels and mechanics that are a joy to play. And while it’s accessible to players of all skill levels, it has enough challenges to satisfy platforming experts. To top it all off, it’s an excellent tribute to PlayStation’s various iconic and lesser-known characters. Even if Astro Bot doesn’t seem like the type of game that you’d play, it’s very much worth playing given the sheer fun that you can have with its creative platforming gameplay. As such, Astro Bot has the makings of PlayStation’s next big franchise.
Unicorn Overlord is the TRPG that I've been waiting for. It's the game that finally made me understand why the genre is as beloved as it is with highly engaging gameplay systems that doesn't sacrifice depth for simplicity. It manages to excel in both to provide one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences I've had this year.
Helldivers 2 is an absolute blast to play. This sequel combines incredible gameplay with an intense dedication to paying homage to all things classic sci-fi action. One of the best coop experiences that can be had in the market today. This is an easy cop for anyone even remotely interested by it.
