Wild Hearts
Wild Hearts completely defied my expectations, and I suspect it will do the same for even the staunchest Monster Hunter fan. It is a fantastic addition to the limited hunting game genre, and it is a strong competitor for those that exist. EA Play and Game Pass offer a 10-hour...
Hogwarts Legacy
For good and for ill alike, Hogwarts Legacy feels like the ultimate chance to explore and tour the Wizarding World from the ground up. In its best moments, it's reminiscent of something like Elden Ring or The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, inviting players to just go and...
The Callisto Protocol
The Callisto Protocol is the sum of its inspirations. While it's easy to write it off as a Dead Space clone that implements The Last of Us' combat, that would be a grave disservice to everything else it accomplishes. Its satisfying combat system, meaningful progression, and spectacular atmosphere should be...
Darktide, at this early stage, is an enjoyable Left 4 Dead-style experience lacking in the depth players have come to expect from Fatshark. There is no doubt that there are all the ingredients needed here to produce a brilliant co-op experience with inordinate levels of replayability, but the game needs...
Signalis
"Pulled from the future and trapped in the past" is the perfect way to describe Signalis. Even when the scanline-infused industrial sci-fi horror gives way to some other aesthetic sensibility, the game is bound by the laws of titles that came before it. Its storytelling style and its gorgeous art...
Gotham Knights
Unfortunately, none of these pros are really enough to outweigh the cons. Gotham Knights isn't a total waste of time, but it is a bit of a headscratcher. By the time the credits roll, it's hard not to feel like the worst moments of this video game were the video...
For diehard fans of Dragon Ball or asymmetrical multiplayer games, Dragon Ball: The Breakers is worth a try. The core gameplay loop can be genuinely enjoyable, especially if it's played with friends, but it is often bogged down by its clunky controls, slow camera, and lackluster combat. Playing as a...
Persona 5 Royal
It's been a long time coming, but Persona 5 Royal is finally expanding its reach in the way it has always deserved. More gamers being able to get their hands on one of the best JRPGs ever made is undoubtedly a good thing, and while Nintendo Switch players often get...
Metal: Hellsinger
In the end, Metal: Hellsinger can't sustain much of a story, and the one it sets out to tell is far too ambitious for the scope of the actual game. Most people won't be coming to Metal: Hellsinger for the story, though. They'll be coming for a game with the...
Stray
Overall, Stray is a simple and charming adventure that doesn't overstay its welcome. The game's approximately eight-hour runtime may be short by modern gaming standards, but those who want to scratch everything, nap everywhere, meow at everyone, and maybe even help some robots with side-quests can take their time. Ultimately,...
For returning players who were worried that High Isle may not be worth the outlay, there is plenty to get involved with at launch, with more updates expected on the horizon. Working in a more confined overground space has forced the developer to get creative with their explorable areas, and...
Millions of fans around the world have been entertained by Hatsune Miku and the Vocaloids, and the game’s PC port, with the deluxe edition expansion, truly feels like the definitive way to experience the popular rhythm game franchise. The port’s high definition presentation and smooth gameplay have been seamlessly translated...
