Control Resonant (PlayStation 5) Review – 8.5/10: Despite fumbles with its new melee combat and difficulty balancing, Control Resonant's storytelling, world, and bizarre quests kept me eager to explore its distorted New York. - Game Informer
The Sinking City 2 (PlayStation 5) Review – 6.25/10: The Sinking City 2 is a respectable scare fest boasting entertaining puzzle-solving. However, middling
Although it may not reach the heights of other narrative-puzzle contemporaries released since Call of the Sea, Call of the Elder Gods is still an entertaining test for your noggin, wrapped in an adequately engaging Lovecraft-inspired story.
Lord of Hatred is an exceptional cherry on top of Diablo IV, further cementing the entire package as among the best action RPGs of the generation.
When a 2D platformer leaps to 3D, the results can vary wildly. Mario stands as the poster boy for what the most successful 2D-to-3D transition looks like, as the plumber flourished in the third dimension. Conversely, Sonic the Hedgehog has often stumbled since making the same jump, and, in my...
Life is Strange: Reunion lives up to its name in more ways than one. Players return to Caledon University, the setting of the previous game, Double Exposure, to unravel a new mystery alongside much of that game’s cast. Max Caulfield’s time-rewind powers from the first Life is Strange are back...
WWE 2K26
WWE 2K26 doesn’t make the most compelling case for long-time players to upgrade.

Nioh 3
Just as the original Nioh was one of the first games to emulate Dark Souls to great success, Nioh 3 is among the first major Soulslikes to use an open-world blueprint post-Elden Ring. However, Team Ninja has always excelled at applying its own sensibilities to a now well-worn blueprint, and...
You are a demon made of glass and pain. Literally. Looking to escape from Hell, you sign a contract with the Devil to devour the moons illuminating the realm’s many layers. Your steed is a skateboard, a forbidden object you’ll use to kick and push through the Underworld, acting as...
Tribute Games, creators of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, know how to spice up the easily bland beat ‘em up genre like few studios can, and Marvel Cosmic Invasion is no exception. Injecting tag-team mechanics reminiscent of the Marvel tag fighters adds a fun layer of strategy and chaos...
Possessor(s)
Regardless of whether you call them “search action” games or Metroidvanias, Possessors offers a fun, if very familiar, take on the formula. Its strong combat and quality storytelling make up for a few stumbles on the exploration side. By the time I saw credits, I didn’t regret making a deal...
Ninja Gaiden 4
Ninja Gaiden 4 is about as pure action as a game can get, and it’s a delicious and sometimes exhausting gauntlet of increasingly brutal bouts that test your reflexes, dexterity, endurance, and creativity in exciting ways. It’s a welcome return to form for a franchise whose last mainline entry was...
