This year, for the first time in years, Just Dance introduces significant changes that alter the experience, preventing players from getting stuck in a rut when choosing what to do in their sessions. There is still little choice for those who pursue a more hardcore style of dancing, but it is certainly a step in the right direction.

Battlefield 6 is not the absolute masterpiece many had hoped for, but it does enough to reignite a rivalry and competition with Call of Duty that had been missing for too long. While the single-player campaign almost makes you wonder if it was really necessary, the multiplayer offers a very solid experience, with a lot of variety in content and a return to the past that everyone will enjoy. After the flop of BF 2042, the series needed to be reborn, and Battlefield 6 may just succeed in doing so.

Absolum, the latest work from Dotemu, is not only a beautifully polished side-scrolling beat 'em up, but also adds an extremely fun roguelike component to the classic beat 'em up, especially in co-op mode. The animations and character designs are meticulously crafted, as is the excellent soundtrack. Are you ready to get your hands dirty in a fantasy setting?

Supermassive Games has done an excellent job of picking up where Tarsier left off. Little Nightmares 3 brings back to the “light” a franchise that has been missing from the gaming scene for years. While sharing some flaws from the past, the new instalment in the series impresses with its well-designed online co-op mode, first-rate aesthetics and attractive budget price.

Bye Sweet Carole is a point-and-click game with hints of combat, simple puzzles and old-fashioned gameplay. We really liked the character and environment designs, as well as the audio, but that's not enough to make a good video game. Fortunately, it's the right length and can be completed in a few hours without too much hassle.

It's a very difficult rating to assign, and you probably understand why if you've read this review. Super Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2 are still two exceptional video games in every respect, perhaps the pinnacle of 3D platformers in the history of video games, and they deserve to be discovered or rediscovered by everyone. The remaster, however, is certainly not memorable, and the launch price does little to reflect the work that has gone into it. The absence of a native version for Switch 2 is also quite inexplicable. The rating you find here attempts to mediate between the unrivalled quality of the two platformers, games that everyone should jealously guard in their library, and the actual realisation of a remastered version sold at a premium price. In essence, two timeless masterpieces... but at a high price.

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny is a project built with love and respect for Nickelodeon's history, designed primarily for those who grew up with its most iconic characters. The nostalgia factor works well and provides many moments of genuine pleasure, thanks in particular to the carefully crafted soundtrack and a cast of characters beloved by the public. However, beyond the charm of the project, the game does not always deliver on its promises. The gameplay is too often repetitive, the mechanics are shallow, and the progression is not varied enough to sustain the entire experience.

Without inventing anything new, but rather drawing on some great examples of the JRPG genre, Digimon Story: Time Stranger is probably the best game ever conceived about Toei's digital monsters. It is a title capable of reviving and improving a tried and tested formula, with excellent technical features and passionate artistic direction, capable of exploiting its full potential and delivering a wealth of content. It is difficult to find any significant flaws in Media Vision's excellent work: Digimon fans have finally got their revenge.

Gameplay is at the heart of FC 26. After years, several fundamental improvements requested by the community have been introduced. The community has been listened to and fully satisfied in this instalment, which confirms itself as one of the most ambitious in the series since before FC.

The House of Tesla is an engaging graphic adventure filled with clever puzzles, a fascinating story, and beautiful historical details. The atmosphere and excellent models of historical objects draw us into the world of Nikola Tesla. Occasional technical shortcomings undermine the experience, but they do not detract from the overall picture. For lovers of history and logical puzzles, it is definitely a game worth trying.

We say this without exaggeration: Hades 2 is an absolutely fantastic sequel. Everything we loved in the first instalment returns, enriched with more content, more possibilities and an even more satisfying combat system. Melinoë's new abilities integrate perfectly, even if it was difficult to shake off Zagreus' legacy at first. But, over time, we learn to exploit them and end up slashing enemies with satisfaction. Provided the gods are benevolent, of course...

Ghost of Yotei presents itself as a title capable of breathing new life into a model that has already proven successful, without completely overturning it. On a narrative level, this game promises a more intimate experience, almost like a “Japanese western”, set in breathtaking scenery that highlights the harsh and unspoilt nature of 17th-century Hokkaido. A world less regulated by the laws of the samurai, but precisely for this reason more unpredictable and fascinating. If you loved Ghost of Tsushima, this second instalment in the series has everything you need to rediscover its magic, but with a darker, colder and more vengeful tone.

Final Fantasy Tactics was a masterpiece in the 1990s, standing as one of the milestones in the turn-based tactical RPG genre. The remastered The Ivalice Chronicles, while not particularly daring, brings this great classic back to life, a must-have for all role-playing enthusiasts. Unmissable, yes, even if we could have expected something more: while the original game still deserves a full 9 out of 10 today, the re-release has been rather lazy in some respects.

Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac is a nice effort. The game itself is not an essential masterpiece in the history of platformers, but it is entertaining enough to recommend purchasing, especially if you have never played it before. The remake manages to polish everything up nicely, even if there are still a few things that leave something to be desired.

Isola DK + Caccia agli Smeraldi is a very strange DLC for Bananza, both in terms of its release timing (less than two months after the release of the base game) and its content: a sort of bizarre but intriguing roguelike experiment for Donkey Kong, which allows you to return to explore this world in a slightly different way. Unfortunately, that's all there is to it, and the price tag of £20 doesn't help to raise the final score.

Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree is an excellent addition to the roguelite world. While it doesn't break any new ground in terms of structure, certain mechanics such as the pair of protagonists and the almost strategic management of Shinju village make it an appealing product for all lovers of the genre, especially those who are passionate about Japanese folklore.

Borderlands 4 is, without a doubt, the rebirth of the saga. Gearbox has listened to the community, recapturing the spirit of Borderlands 2 and correcting the mistakes of the third instalment. The result is a fresh, chaotic, fun and damn Borderlands title. Sure, a few technical hiccups mar its perfection, but they don't detract too much from an experience that manages to balance narrative, gameplay and artistic direction with a maturity that the saga has long needed. If you loved Borderlands 2 and were disappointed by its successor, Borderlands 4 will help you rediscover that lost magic, amplified by new mechanics and a game world that never ceases to amaze.

LEGO Voyagers is a game that attempts to replicate experiences such as It Takes Two, in a much more relaxed way but still emphasising cooperation. There are various puzzles that may be frustrating, given the lack of clues or their inability to present themselves properly; however, the game is enjoyable to play and watch, all at an absolutely affordable price.

Katanaut is a good roguelite: the fun comes from experimenting with different character builds. You will have various melee weapons, firearms and abilities at your disposal, which often lead to a completely new gaming experience. If you love this genre of games, don't hesitate to try the latest work from Voidmaw!

Rally Arcade Classics is a title that blends nostalgia and depth, suitable for both casual players and rally enthusiasts. The lack of different rally stages and occasional repetitiveness make it a title recommended for the latter category of players we mentioned.
