Despite having a solid foundation for its gameplay systems, Lost Soul Aside becomes a victim of its own ambition by attempting to tell an uninteresting and confusing story, while also making some missteps that prevent the combat from reaching its full potential, turning Yang Bing and UltiZeroGames' debut title into a major disappointment.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land offers a fun and accessible experience, with a simple story and satisfying progression through varied worlds. The creative transformations and interaction with environmental objects provide funny and enjoyable moments. The endgame raises the difficulty, and the co-op mode allows you to play with friends, although it’s somewhat limited. The Star Crossed World expansion is short, but the base game delivers a memorable and engaging experience for both fans and newcomers.

Metal Gear Solid Delta is a faithful remake to a fault. While it's a recommended experience for newcomers or fans who barely remember the original game, its lack of boldness leaves the title disappointing for fans accustomed to the authenticity that is the franchise's hallmark.

Cronos: The New Dawn is more than just a horror game. It’s a complete experience that blends an engaging narrative, suffocating atmosphere, challenging gameplay, and creative puzzles. It’s also a reminder that survival horror still has plenty of room for innovation.

Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots is the game that fans of the franchise have been waiting for all these years, keeping all the elements that made the series so beloved during the golden era of the PS1 and PS2, proving that there's still room for arcade sports games that prioritize fun above all else.

Hell is Us doesn’t aim to please everyone, but rather to provoke and challenge. The game offers no clear rewards, no easy solutions. It doesn’t invite the player in—it throws them into chaos and watches, from a distance, how each one responds. It’s a new experience that may appeal to many or alienate others—no formulas, no tutorials, no predictability. And precisely because of that, Hell is Us stands out in a landscape saturated with predictable experiences.

Midnight Murder Club combines tension, strategy, and fun in intense matches with friends. With directional voice chat, voice modulation, and impressive lighting, the immersion is complete. The Guest Pass and crossplay make group play easy. A lack of map variety limits replayability, but alternative modes help keep the game engaging. It’s worth it for those seeking adrenaline and fun in a social multiplayer experience.

Super Robot Wars Y is a grand celebration of the mecha genre, and despite some minor pacing issues in its story and the lack of voice acting in dialogues, it stands as the ultimate crossover between these beloved franchises, making it highly recommended for fans of Gundam and other acclaimed series featured in the franchise.

Paying homage to a historic franchise and bringing an aesthetic faithful to the game's name, The Rogue Prince of Persia may not stand out as much compared to Evil Empire's predecessor, but it is still a highly entertaining title with a Persian touch that makes the game even more unique, in its own way.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is not just the return of a classic franchise. It’s an example of how to bring an icon from the past into the present, without losing its identity and without being afraid to take risks. It’s a challenging, beautiful, addictive, and heartfelt game. For veterans, it’s a gift. For newcomers, it’s a gateway to the magic that Shinobi has always represented. No exaggeration: this is already, for me, the best game of the year.

Drag x Drive is a Nintendo Switch exclusive that blends sports, accessibility, and innovation with basketball matches on futuristic chairs controlled by the Joy-Con 2. The gameplay is creative but physically tiring. Despite its technical excellence, it lacks content and art direction, becoming fun but quickly repetitive. Definitely the least Nintendo game Nintendo has ever released.

OFF is a re-relase that, although timid and without major significant changes other than the new areas and bosses, still represents a surreal, unusual, fun and meaningful game, revitalizing and attracting a new audience to what is a true milestone for the modern indie industry.

Mafia: The Old Country had the potential to be a much bigger and better game than it is. The story is weak at several points, fails to deliver a satisfying ending, and its gameplay also suffers from issues.

Super Mario Party Jamboree for Nintendo Switch 2 expands the series’ classic formula with a wide selection of mini-games, new boards, and social features.

Dead Take is a very solid experience with a strong narrative weight, both in development and theme, and although the lack of combat or escape may put off more hardcore players, the plot and the actors' performances leave a mark on anyone who passes through Duke Cain's dark mansion.

Wildate is a first-person PvPvE action game focused on teamwork, ship management, and dynamic combat. Visually striking and technically polished, it offers unique matches but heavily relies on cooperation. It features good progression and fair monetization; however, its paid model may deter players and can negatively impact the experience if played without friends.

Destiny 2: The Edge of Fate does a good job on setting the stage for the future of the game, but unfortunately, it falls short in creating a truly engaging and memorable experience. That said, the quality-of-life improvements and system changes like Armor 3.0 might be enough to satisfy the more dedicated players.
