7.8 / 10.0 - Tormented Souls 2
Oct 24, 2025

Tormented Souls 2 delivers a survival horror experience focused on exploration, puzzle-solving, and an oppressive atmosphere. With a fragmented narrative and themes involving parallel realities and dark cults, the title employs classic mechanics such as fixed camera angles and limited inventory to heighten tension. Despite some shortcomings in combat and repetitive progression segments, it stands out for its art direction, effective sound design, and its balance between nostalgia and contemporary elements of the genre.

9.5 / 10.0 - Persona 3 Reload
Oct 21, 2025

Persona 3 Reload breathes new life into one of Atlus’s greatest classics, preserving everything that made Persona 3 such a special game for fans of the franchise while updating many of its mechanics, making this remake the definitive version of P3. The Nintendo Switch 2 version turned out to be a port that definitely had room for better optimization, but it still fulfills its purpose of bringing the SEES journey to Nintendo’s hybrid console.

Just Dance 2026 may not bring major changes, but it hits the mark by continuing to do what it has always done best: bringing people together, putting smiles on faces, and getting everyone to dance. With a well-chosen music selection, simple mechanics, and tons of energy, the game remains an excellent choice for all ages.

6 / 10.0 - Formula Legends
Oct 14, 2025

Formula Legends is clearly a game made by fans of the most prestigious category in motorsport, however, despite having good ideas and taking the player on a time-traveling journey through the history of the category, the lack of game modes and some other structural issues end up limiting what could have been an excellent racing game.

8.5 / 10.0 - Absolum
Oct 9, 2025

Absolum is a great beat 'em up with excellent gameplay, stunning visuals, and incredible soundtracks. However, the game falls short as a roguelite, offering a story that takes a while to pick up and little variation between runs.

9 / 10.0 - Yooka-Replaylee

5 / 10.0 - King of Meat
Oct 2, 2025

King of Meat has an interesting premise, but it's executed in a shallow way. It also forces unfunny humor and uses an excessive amount of lighting that becomes uncomfortable during gameplay sessions. Maybe the game is aimed at a younger audience and I just didn't get it, but what I saw didn't impress me at all.

Hollow Knight: Silksong expands on the original’s formula in such a creative and bold way that it becomes something unique and memorable, going far beyond any shadow cast by the first game. Its fast-paced gameplay, well-balanced challenges, varied progression, and impeccable art direction—combined with cohesive level design and a striking soundtrack—establish Silksong as one of the standout games of 2025 and reaffirm Team Cherry as one of the most talented studios of our time.

Dying Light: The Beast sticks to the franchise’s winning formula, featuring fluid parkour, intense combat, and the now-classic day-night cycle. The gameplay is polished, fun, and rewarding, with bosses that add variety and unlock new abilities. However, the story remains a weak point, with forgettable characters and a generic villain. The smaller map and the sense of recycled content reinforce the impression that it could have been a DLC for Dying Light 2. Still, it's a great title for fans, though it may disappoint players looking for innovation or a more engaging narrative.

6.8 / 10.0 - Katanaut
Sep 26, 2025

A solid title for those who are quite familiar and accustomed to roguelikes, although Katanaut suffers from a lack of great variation in the gameplay loop and relies on repetitiveness for much of the journey.
