Rennsport is a young, ambitious simulator with great potential, but it is still far from fully mature. It offers good sensations on the track, a solid multiplayer mode and an adequate technical base, but it needs to grow in terms of content, performance and overall refinement. This title is recommended for those who enjoy following the evolution of a project and want to invest in its future; it is less suitable for those looking for a complete and in-depth experience right away.

Black Ops 7, taken on its own, is not a video game that can be described as a disaster: it has a lot of content, refines some weak elements of BO6, and does not indulge too much in nostalgia, while offering some classic returns. The problem is that here, just as in the case of MW3 two years ago, there is a strong sense of a tired franchise, lacking in energy and interesting ideas, ready to recycle ideas and assets from 15 years ago in order not to give up the £80 demanded from fans every year. Black Ops 7, even more so than MW3, is an extremely expensive DLC for Black Ops 6, and no statement from the developers will change our minds. If you live and breathe Call of Duty, buy it, you probably won't regret it and you'll have plenty to play; if you haven't bought Black Ops 6, starting here isn't a bad idea; otherwise, you can safely skip it this year: there's nothing at the moment that's really worth investing that kind of money in. Or try it via Game Pass if you're already a subscriber.

Neon Inferno is inspired by classic run 'n gun games, offering a less frantic pace than arcade games to accommodate newcomers. The adventure doesn't last long, but the real challenge lies in completing it at increasingly higher difficulty levels. Will you be able to do it?

It's not a masterpiece, it's not a disaster, and it's not even the big comeback we were hoping for: Stalker 2 is an imperfect but fascinating experience, more mature on PS5, recommended especially for those who appreciate a hostile and magnetic world, willing to forgive its flaws in order to be engulfed by its unique atmosphere. An extra year of work, however, is not particularly noticeable.

It's still a musou game, so don't expect a lot of variety; however, the developers have managed to build a game around the splendid mythology of Tears of the Kingdom, and this is inevitably an asset that should not be underestimated. In addition, progression is handled with important innovations, such as the introduction of new mechanics that mitigate repetitiveness. It's a shame, however, about the story, which could have offered much more.

Possessor(s) is a good Metroidvania experience crafted by the talented studio Hear Machine. The mechanics are well-established and reminiscent of the classics of the genre, but what impressed us most was the art design, which is one of the best we've seen lately. We still have some doubts, especially regarding the world navigation system and some effects that make the battles difficult to follow, but overall, Possessor(s) was enjoyable.

Winter Burrow strikes a perfect balance between survival and cosy gaming, making it the ideal mix for winter. The accessible difficulty level allows us to enjoy it at a leisurely pace; in its ten hours, it never becomes repetitive. Minor imperfections, such as the awkward inventory or long journeys, do not spoil the fun. Pine Creek Games has created an experience that perfectly balances survival and relaxation.

Sacred 2 Remaster takes us back to the magical kingdom of Ancaria, 17 years after the release of the original game. The developers have presented a game that has been cleaned up from many of the bugs that plagued Sacred 2, with overall improvements to the game's technical and graphical aspects. However, it is disappointing that the multiplayer mode is only available on PC, despite the higher cost on consoles.

Anno 117: Pax Romana marks a new chapter in Ubisoft's management saga. It is clear that the experience gained during the development of Anno 1800 has served to create a product that is polished and profound in every aspect, but also easy to access. Of course, newbies may feel a little lost at first among the many buttons on the interface, and there are a lot of tasks to complete. But Anno 117: Pax Romana is one of the best management games we've ever played. Now let's hear what Caesar wants...

LEGO Party! establishes itself as one of the most solid productions in the modern party game scene. While clearly inspired by the established Mario Party formula, it manages to introduce structural improvements that enhance the competitive component and reduce dependence on luck. The content offering is not extensive, with only four maps and a limited number of modes, but the experience is still complete and well balanced. In short, LEGO Party! is a successful LEGO-style adaptation of the classic party game: accessible, colourful, stable and strongly oriented towards sharing. A title that, while not reinventing the genre, reaffirms its validity and finally makes it available on all platforms, without barriers or access limits.

A Pizza Delivery is a narrative adventure with simple puzzles and strange settings. We play a young delivery girl, trapped in a limbo where tormented souls end up. This is the developer's first experiment and should be interpreted as such. It would be wrong to expect great things.

Syberia Remastered takes us back twenty-two years to the role of Kate Walker, ready to embark on her icy adventure in search of the mystery of the Voralberg. The story is as magnificent as ever, and Microids has also offered us a decent improvement in the graphics department, but this re-release is not without its problems, especially on the technical side. Interpenetration, invisible walls and a particularly unstable build plague the title, compromising the overall experience.

Football Manager 26 is a rich, rich game - perhaps too rich. Sports Interactive has used its expertise to maintain the fundamental principles of the experience, while modernising it as much as possible; this has not always worked. In addition to the large number of bugs and technical issues of various kinds, the menu management will need to be reviewed again at SI. This will probably be addressed in FM27; for now, it remains the best management game on the market, but with many reservations due to the evolutionary leap.

Arc Raiders has definitely won us over: its settings are evocative, its sound design is excellent, and we haven't encountered any technical issues. But above all, we're talking about an extremely fun game that makes us want to try one new extraction after another. The threats do not lie solely in the ARCs, the robotic enemies that rule the post-apocalyptic world built by Embark, but also and above all in our fellow human raiders, ready to steal our resources. Prepare yourself for some tense moments!

Escape from Duckov is much more than a parody game: the latest surprise hit is a title with solid gameplay that is extremely entertaining. Our duck must survive and find resources in a hostile but ironic world, certainly free from the stress of competitive online games. There is definitely room for improvement on the part of Team Soda, especially with regard to controller management, but there have already been updates in this first month, and we are convinced that more will follow in the future.

Overall, Painkiller is a decent title, although it is not designed for fans of the original, of which it shares little more than the name. For those looking for a fast-paced but light-hearted pastime to enjoy with friends, it could be a pleasant experience. For those feeling nostalgic, however, it will be difficult not to miss the charisma and brutality that made the first Painkiller so unique.

Dreams of Another is a visually captivating experiment, but one lacking in substance. The idea of “creating by destroying” and the suspended aesthetics of the clouds of dots hint at remarkable artistic potential, but the execution fails to deliver on its promise. The result is a work that is more admired from afar than played with: fascinating, yes, but also cold and disorienting. A dream that, although beautiful to look at, ends up dissolving too soon.

Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake completes the prestigious journey begun last year by Square Enix. While carrying with it the strengths and weaknesses seen in Ortega's story, the package containing the two adventures that gave rise to the beloved IP should not be missing from the collection of any RPG lover.

Simon the Sorcerer Origins fully captures the spirit of the very first episodes of the point-and-click saga of the teenage wizard. It seems like 30 years haven't passed since Adventure Soft's adventures full of comedy and fantasy, and Smallthing Studio has skilfully picked up the baton, giving us a good adventure, full of jokes and nostalgia.

The Lonesome Guild is a small but significant step forward for Tiny Bull Studios: a work that combines the team's narrative sensibility with a more mature and accessible game structure. It is not only a well-crafted action RPG, but also a reflection on the meaning of companionship, the fear of being alone, and the strength of the bonds that save us. It's just a shame about a few flaws in the map system and a combat system that lacks depth.
