Killing Floor 3 is a sequel that’s marred by uneven execution and puzzling design choices.
As development progresses, with major content updates scheduled quarterly, it is positioned as an Action RPG that is sure to appeal to both new and existing fans of the Titan Quest series. While still evolving, Titan Quest II already shows strong promise as a worthy successor.
The sequel continues the story, focusing on the next three arcs from the anime, allowing diehard fans to relive their favourite moments. Anime fans often like to rewatch their favourite shows, and this game provides a great alternative, getting them involved in the action themselves.
Phantom Squad enters the tactical shooter genre with a promise of tense infiltration missions, sleek squad-based mechanics, and a high-tech modern warfare backdrop. Developed by Ctrl Freak and published by Super Rare Originals, it caters to fans of stealth-heavy gameplay and squad control, offering a hybrid of real-time tactics and third-person action. But does it deliver on its black-ops fantasy, or does it get lost in the fog of war?
Jamboree TV is a solid upgrade pack and makes great use of the Switch 2’s camera, microphone, and mouse controls to provide new and creative minigames that are fun, hilarious, intense, and addictive to play. Seeing you and your friends appear in and be part of the game is incredibly entertaining and will always be a good time.
I enjoyed this game; it’s not overly complicated and makes for a great time-eater. I found myself losing track of time while exploring and clearing the areas to uncover hidden secrets. With great nods to popular culture, a lovely artistic style, and general good fun, I could recommend it to many. One Man’s Trash is a great Indie game with enough to make you want more.
WWE 2K25 on Nintendo Switch 2 stands tall. It successfully brings the full, uncompromising gameplay experience of a top-tier wrestling title to a portable format, letting you unleash havoc wherever and whenever.
It just didn’t entertain me enough, sadly, even with a story-based system to experience all the workings of the machine, as the objectives all just seemed underwhelming.
Wild Hearts S is what the original always wanted to be: a bold, inventive monster-hunting action game with systems that encourage creativity and cooperation.
I was charmed by The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature Expansion Pack; it’s a wonderful experience that existing and budding Sims alike can enjoy.
Soma still stands as a perfect example of what great horror can be, a decade later. Its story is heavy, both emotionally and thematically, ironically mirroring the crushing isolation of being trapped beneath the ocean, while the monster encounters can be hit or miss, the ones that land are truly terrifying, and that’s more than enough for me. If you’ve ever been on the fence about playing it, there’s no better time than now.
WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers is not for the faint-hearted. If super tough, complex gameplay is what you’re after, WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers is definitely going to challenge you.
Donkey Kong Bananza is an evolution, not just for DK, but for 3D platformers in general. It’s bold, unpredictable, and overflowing with ideas.
EA Sports College Football 26 builds on the strong foundations of last year’s return and delivers a deeper, more refined college football experience across the board. With its stunning visuals, realistic gameplay, revamped modes, and increased attention to the college tradition, it’s a love letter to the fans of the sport.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 brings skating back to the forefront in a genre that receives far less attention than it deserves. The amount of content, gameplay additions, and graphical updates makes for a truly impressive combo. Iron Galaxy has set the stage for a revival of a beloved game series. I’m ready for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 now.
There’s something that continuously draws us back to old/retro games. Is it nostalgia? Is it wanting to relive the memories? Did we love the storyline? Maybe the somewhat now dated graphics and the soundtrack kept our blood pumping as we eagerly awaited the next boss battle or the revealing of a hidden item? If you have chosen all of the above, then you’ll be delighted to learn that Powerhoof’s newest game, ‘The Drifter’, will unlock all your old-school gaming desires!
The quality of life updates do a great deal to enhance the experience for both longtime fans and those interested in getting into the franchise. It plays and looks better than before, but also offers options to restore the original experience and the Bonus Content is filled with numerous extras to enjoy.
‘Gorn 2’ delivers more of everything that made ‘Gorn’ a must-play for VR enthusiasts. Although the campaign is way too short for my liking, there is endless fun to be had playing with the Custom and Endless modes. Expressive combat, increased variety of weaponry, over-the-top violence, challenging boss battles and kicking the crap out of many Rokibe. What’s not to love about that? With only a couple of minor issues ‘Gorn 2’ is a solid entry and well worth adding to your PSVR2 library.
Ready or Not will make a strong debut on Xbox Series X with some fine-tuning and polishing. It delivers a tense, tactical shooter that doesn’t shy away from realism and consequences.
Overall, the game still feels like a mobile game, but it is visually pleasing and has done a good job of crossing over to PC Gaming. Not groundbreaking, but it scratches the gaming itch. It’s a short title, but completionists will have satisfaction or frustration from replaying levels to get all trophies and stars. Could have done a lot more to move away from the mobile feel.
