Indiana Jones and The Great Circle is no fool’s gold, and the only pitfalls you’ll need to watch out for are those the game has laid deliberately. Developer MachineGames has delivered not just a love letter to the original movies, but a rip-roaring serial adventure that can stand proudly beside its elders in the archives.

While it's an unusual choice for a family-friendly spin-off, there's undeniable character to Lego Horizon Adventures that goes further than I expected.

Veilguard is BioWare going back to its roots: a single-player, story-driven RPG with a scrappy hero and the people they meet along the way... Veilguard has rectified all of my dislike for its predecessor, massively improving everything...

[Metaphor ReFantazio] perfectly balances its weighty, philosophical pondering on the nature of utopia and social progress, with playful and silly team-building moments with your pals.

[Sonic x Shadow Generations] brings the 2011 game Sonic Generations back for a new audience to enjoy, while introducing just enough content for long-time Sonic fans to justify returning to a game that came out over 10 years ago.

I never knew I needed to see the Namek saga unravel on Earth instead of Planet Namek until I experienced it for myself. I was left smiling like a little kid and laughing because it was so much fun to see these alternate situations play out.

In recent years, survival horror fans have been spoiled with multiple stellar remakes of older Resident Evil games. And their success will have no doubt piled even more pressure on Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2 remake. Yet against all the odds, a modern classic appears to have emerged from the developmental fog.

I understand that EA FC is a yearly game series, and that is going to come with limitations. That said, people are paying full price for these changes, and we just don’t get enough here. Ultimate Team has a few quality of life changes, and the new Rush mode is good fun, but again, the fun comes from you – the game is just a sandbox for your imagination.

Funko Fusion has a lot of the fundamentals down, with large, varied environments, destructible objects, different character loadouts to suit various play styles and tastes, a slew of hidden collectibles to gather, and tons of playable characters to unlock. But, it doesn’t reach its full potential, with awkward weapon aiming and a “try it and see” mentality that doesn’t quite work in a game with this much going on.

[I]f you have even the slightest beat of a cantina drum in your heart, then Outlaws is the [game] you have been waiting for. To walk around and have your own adventure in a galaxy far, far away. What a treat.

While it does feel like the same strides and missteps occur each year, Madden 25 has more positive improvements than bad...[we're] happy with the realistic changes that have come about with FieldSENSE and BOOM Tech, as well as the various presentation updates that have been added.

A thoroughly enjoyable revival of a brilliant box of puzzles. Though the visuals can't measure up to the series' dedicated Switch outing, Luigi's Mansion 2 is another a stellar family-friendly option for those eager to enjoy a spooky aesthetic without the scare factor.
