As Luisa, you’ll visit the magical village of Hinterberg, a town beset by magical dungeons. As she will escape her mundane life, a dire secret begins to reveal itself, causing Luisa to dig deep into the history of the village and the origins of its magic.
While Shadow of the Erdtree is a familiar experience to that of the base game, Elden Ring was a damn near masterpiece of its own. This 60+ hour adventure to conquer its lands, to vanquish every beast, and to add to your ever-growing collection of weapons, armor, and summons, is...
Kaku: Ancient Seal offers a gorgeous world to explore with an emotive and fantastic character model in the titular Kaku. While combat is very serviceable, with numerous enemies to fight and bosses to conquer, the story and writing, among other issues, currently hold it back.
Trails through Daybreak begins a new story arc in a whole new land that is ripe for potential. It has a great cast of characters and returning favorites and does a lot of good with them, even if the voice acting is inconsistent on when it is used.
Tchia
Tchia blends the experiences of several other games to create a passion project worth exploring. As Tchia’s father is abducted, she will use her newly discovered powers to track him down and uncover a plot that will shape her future forever.

Horizon Chase 2’s visuals and approach may deter the more hardcore audience, but it’s a solid throwback to the arcade racers from years past that is ultimately a very satisfying experience.
Hypercharge: Unboxed has been an absolute delight in being one of the only true gaming experiences that allow you to really relive your childhood. The battlegrounds are filled with so many toys that I remember playing with to set pieces and encounters that feel ripped directly from my memory.
Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters was the first title in the series to really disappoint me, and yet Game Maker R:Evolution hands down disappoints me further, making me question if this series is even for me anymore. Its combat and level design are barebones and empty of anything remotely engaging.
Heading Out is a stylish driving game with rogue-lite elements that have you outpacing your fear as you cross America. As you take part in races, out run cops, and meet an eclectic band of characters, you’ll make choices that will dictate if you can escape your fear or succumb...
