Star Wars Zero Company offers an engaging strategic experience, whether through battlefield tactics or extensive management outside of it. It’s just a shame that every positive aspect seems to come with a small drawback.

Hell Let Loose: Vietnam suffers from certain issues that will be fixed through patches. Once that’s done, the jungle will become a favorite place to return to because, above all, it still has that team‑driven spirit that made the original so good and enjoyable.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword delivers an excellent combat system and epic boss battles, but its game structure stretches itself unnecessarily, resulting in too much repetition.

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy carries forward the spirit of the series with a strong atmosphere and a compelling adventure, but its new gameplay direction and different approach to mechanics don’t quite reach the level of its predecessors. Even so, it remains a quality spin‑off with enough ideas of its own to justify its existence.

Gallipoli takes us back to the battlefields of the First World War with the series’ most impressive and dynamic audiovisual presentation to date. It brings an expanded arsenal of classes and abilities, but still struggles with the lingering issue of limited content.

Mortal Shell 2 is a great example of a sequel that understands what worked in the original and improves on nearly every part of it. It has its problems, but its combat and exploration can easily stand alongside far more high-profile Soulslikes.

Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls is chaotic and complex, yet still a highly entertaining fighting game with one of the most beautiful portrayals of superheroes we’ve ever seen.

“Beast of Reincarnation has some good ideas, but it keeps spinning them until there’s no life left. The fun combat, original movement and Koo carry the experience as much as they can, yet the recycling and repetitiveness dull this beast’s fangs far too early.

As a standalone game, Campaign Evolved is a technically impressive and excellent FPS. But as a remake of Halo CE, many of its changes hurt the experience and prove that the original is still the better game.

Gather your friends and pack some jokes, because the walks can get pretty long. With minimal guidance, the game throws you into an adventure of solving clever puzzles that should keep the whole crew engaged right to the end, despite a feeling that it all could have been even more memorable.

It does not matter if this remake is necessary or not, because the conclusion is very simple – Resynced is a better version of Black Flag in every possible way. And it’s a damn good reason for a return to the best pirate‑themed action game.

The Adventures of Elliot proves it can step outside their comfort zone and deliver a gorgeous, compact adventure that makes up in heart what it lacks in scope.

Star Fox is an impressively faithful remake of the Nintendo 64 classic, brought into the modern era with a fresh coat of paint. For some players, that alone will be enough, but it's hard not to feel a bit disappointed by the fact that the package doesn't include even a single new level.

LEGO Batman put together a fun formula by blending Arkham‑style gameplay with bits of story pulled from various Batman films.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a charming little encyclopedia of unusual creatures, unique mechanics, and colorful levels. It’s just a shame that uncovering all of those wonders rarely asks much from the player.

007: First Light isn't a flawless game, but it flawlessly understands what makes Bond so unique, and no game has ever fit us into the tuxedo quite this convincingly.

Forza Horizon still holds the leading position in open‑world arcade racing. However, by the sixth installment, you can feel its festival formula starting to wear out.

Kiln is a creative title with unique foundations, but in its current form it still lacks the content and depth needed to keep a larger player base engaged in the long run.

Mixtape is a fantastic celebration of the youth we all leave behind, an adventure with a playful interpretation of music unlike anything we’ve experienced in recent times.

A brutal and accessible team-based fighter that perfectly captures the over the top violence and personality of the Invincible universe. Strong core mechanics and diverse characters make it highly addictive despite its simplicity. However, the lack of meaningful single-player content and aggressive monetization hold it back from true greatness.
