Jun 23, 2025

Where the first Death Stranding was original and daring, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is repetitive and boring. It's a sequel too scared to stray from its predecessor. The new tools and scenarios are nothing more than window dressing for a repetitive experience, accompanied by a bland story filled with ideas that Hideo Kojima had used much better in other games. Its technical quality is impressive and it features great performances, but only those who finished the previous game and were left wanting more of the same will be able to fully appreciate it.

While the story of Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army may feel far removed from the depth of Shin Megami Tensei's complex plots, or its characters lack the charisma and development of Persona's, its strange twists and pace—chaotic but memorable—make Raidou Kuzunoha XIV's adventure worth a chance.

6 / 10.0 - FBC: Firebreak
Jun 17, 2025

While we greatly appreciate that it doesn't fall into the microtransaction and monetization trap of other games-as-a-service, FBC Firebreak doesn't offer anything new or interesting. It doesn't make good use of Control's lore or more bizarre elements, and while it can occasionally offer fun and exciting moments, it's nothing special.

6.5 / 10.0 - Tron: Catalyst
Jun 17, 2025

Bithell Games was overly ambitious with its time-loops idea, resulting in several poorly implemented mechanics. The combat is mediocre and the exploration somewhat repetitive, but Tron: Catalyst has a very good story with relevant themes, intriguing lore, and a great setting that may make it worthwhile for fans of the series.

This is a game that focuses on adaptation and teamwork in short but action-packed matches. Thanks to the vast experience of Hidetaka Miyazaki's studio, it draws on different playstyles to achieve a synergy that gives the title—despite belonging to the Elden Ring universe—a lot of personality.

7.8 / 10.0 - F1 25
May 28, 2025

By focusing on next-gen consoles and PCs, this game is able to show clear graphical optimization and a more polished driving simulation. Codemasters has made adjustments to handling, understeer, and the ERS system this year. However, not all innovations are successful. The Breaking Point 3 mode, despite the visual improvements, fails to engage the player because our actions have little real impact on the narrative. Furthermore, the high price is not justified by the annual upgrades and remains in a point that makes us believe this franchise doesn't need an annual release.

After 32 years, many find it very difficult to innovate. However, id Software has managed to introduce new mechanics and design improvements to its old formula, opting for a first-person action-adventure approach. The studio has opted to return to its roots, abandoning multiplayer mode.

6.6 / 10.0 - Copycat
May 23, 2025

Copycat is a pretty effective game at manipulating the emotions of cat lovers. While I feel it lacks narrative elements, some of its minigames are too simplistic, and it doesn't quite manage to fully grasp all of its themes, is a short experience that may be worthwhile.

Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny inherits the legacy of Resident Evil and applies its own action formula. Several puzzles and additional modes complement the journey of Jubei and his allies in this crusade of revenge, visually consistent with well-developed art and displayed in the gallery for the delight of fans. The "Hell" mode definitely separates the casuals from the samurai.

A great addition to the catalog of fighting game compilations from the genre's golden age. This collection gives players the opportunity to rediscover lesser-known titles—or some forgotten due to their low popularity—along with acclaimed classics.

An ambitious modernization that undeniably preserves the essence of the 2006 classic while introducing visual, gameplay, and quality-of-life improvements. Thanks to this —and despite even inheriting the original's flaws—Bethesda and Virtuos have delivered a smoother experience with a great set of accessibility options for new players.

6.8 / 10.0 - Mostroscopy
May 13, 2025

This is a niche game that probably won't appeal to a large portion of the fighting game community and the lack of an online mode doesn't help. However, its concept is very appealing, and fans of the films it references will inevitably be drawn to it, even if only to give it a look. It's a game made for a very specific and small group of players, but you may belong to that group and not even know it.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 not only secures a spot on my list of the best games of 2025, but also on my list of favorite games of all time. I'm in love with its wonderful, mystery-filled story, its long-suffering yet charismatic characters, its secret-filled map, and its perfectly balanced combat system. Some elements could be more polished, but that doesn't take away from its title of a work of art.

A very good option for those who miss RPGs with turn-based combat like they were made more than 20 years ago. It has an intriguing story, excellent characters, and very good chibi-style visual art. The numerous fights can be a bit tiring, and some scenarios feel more labyrinthine than they should be, but it's a game worth playing, whether you're a fan of Maliki's webcomic or have never heard of it before.

We are facing a title that will undoubtedly be the roadmap for future SNK games and will be the best fighting game of 2025.

7.7 / 10.0 - South of Midnight
Apr 14, 2025

South of Midnight is a short experience, which, despite its narrative strengths and immersive, spectacular setting, suffers from certain weaknesses in the execution of its story and the development of its main and secondary characters. Additionally, its gameplay isn't bad, but the level and combat design quickly become repetitive—given the game's short length.

Bleach: Rebirth of Souls offers a combat system with interesting, innovative and strategic mechanics. Thanks to that, this is a fighting game with enough depth to appeal to the community of a genre as demanding as the FGC.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is the most ambitious open-world action-RPG the Wii U could have produced. We see that same aura of charm carried over to the definitive Switch version, with a portable mode that's graphically improved compared to its predecessor.

8.4 / 10.0 - Wanderstop
Mar 25, 2025

517 / 5,000 The way Wanderstop presents the pain caused by trauma and the healing power of a gentle, relaxing environment that, despite everything, can't completely cure it resonated deeply with me. This is a fantastic work that uses humor, tragedy, and absolutely charismatic characters to present complex realities that aren't always solvable. Depending on your own experience, you may love this game or you may find it confusing and boring, but it's worth a look.

8 / 10.0 - Look Outside
Mar 21, 2025

Despite its simple appearance, it manages to deliver an immersive and terrifying experience thanks to its great use of sound, and the grotesque, but memorable character design by François Coulombe-Fortier.
