Pokémon Legends: Z-A Mega Dimension serves as a solid expansion to the main game’s content, bringing challenging new endgame content and finally allowing players to break the level 100 barrier. Despite the interesting story premise and the fun interactions between characters, the progression system makes the journey somewhat tiring, which may disappoint players who are not strongly attached to the battle mechanics.

Octopath Traveler 0 uses the excellent gameplay foundation of the mobile game to create a true work of art among modern Japanese RPGs, featuring a dynamic and deep combat system, an intriguing story with extremely well-developed villains, and a city-building system that is fun without overshadowing the battles.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond disappoints by replacing the classic interconnected maps with a tedious open world, which, combined with a shallow narrative and a lack of innovation in its gameplay mechanics, turns Samus’s return to the Metroid Prime franchise into a major wasted potential.

Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection shines by delivering a great selection of classic games in a structure that’s easy, fast, and intuitive to play. It features a fun online system, though one more geared toward casual players, and an excellent documentary about the franchise’s history.

ROUTINE delivers a surprisingly solid first-person horror experience, even after thirteen years of turbulent development. Set in Union Plaza, the game relies on a minimalist narrative told through logs and level design, enhancing immersion. The gameplay is methodical, tense, and fully diegetic, demanding constant strategy as the player faces a real threat in the lunar base corridors. With stable performance and an engaging atmosphere, ROUTINE stands out as a survival horror worth paying attention to.

Kirby Air Riders surprised me with its accessibility, fast pace, and variety of modes, but its extremely short sessions and some overly quick minigames end up hurting the experience. Technically solid and artistically vibrant, the game delivers a fun, chaotic, and well-polished package. In the end, I enjoyed playing it and had some good moments, but I didn’t fall in love with it. It’s fun, creative, and unique, just not particularly memorable.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment masterfully blends the musou genre with mechanics from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, creating an extremely fun combat system. Its canonical narrative for the BOTW and TOTK universe expands the lore of both games in a very respectful way, adding new and interesting elements to Hyrule’s story without necessarily making them overly essential to the universe, serving as an excellent complement for fans who love this world.

Demonschool is not just a tribute to past generations of tactical JRPGs, but a work full of charm, personality, and truly unique craziness. With beautiful visuals, an unusual soundtrack for the genre, and gameplay that is creative and fun in equal measure, it's a true invitation for veterans and newcomers to the genre and anyone interested in the theme represented.
