Valor Mortis
When I played the preview build of Valor Mortis a couple of weeks ago, I came away thoroughly impressed. One More Level’s Ghostrunner is one of my favorite new franchises of the past few years, so the studio’s decision to pivot from frantic action platforming to a slower, more brutal...
Developer ONE-O-ONE GAMES, the developers of the incredibly divisive Suicide of Rachel Foster, is back with a new experience. The Alighieri Circle: Dante’s Bloodline is a modern interpretation of Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy. I myself am not familiar with this piece of work, but I was still actually interested...

Ever since I went to see Project Hail Mary, I’ve been chasing that next great sci-fi fix. The kind that delivers big ideas and memorable characters without talking down to the audience. DONTNOD’s Aphelion seemed to arrive at just the right moment, but does it actually live up to that...
Over the past few years, Capcom has rarely missed, landing just about every major release while still being willing to experiment with new formulas and styles.
