Kaiserpunk

7/10

There’s a lot to do in Kaiserpunk, but dealing with it won’t always be pleasant. It’s up to you to decide if this bump in the road to complete mastery of the system is a problem or the point of the game.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition

10/10

But instead of going the easy route, Monolith Soft went the extra mile and added meaningful new content and quality-of-life features that actually improved on what was already a masterpiece experience. The Definitive Edition treatment makes Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition one of the best JRPGs on the Switch, and...

WWE 2K25

8/10

WWE 2K25 is one of the biggest leaps in the series so far. While the Island is disappointing, the sheer amount of content in this game is unmatched. You have over 300 wrestlers with more DLC on the way, plenty of fun modes like the highly improved MyGM and the...

Knights in Tight Spaces

6/10

The impression given by a character’s title and image describes them as much as their words do, so why even talk to them? Like them, the first impression given by the game is correct. A lot of potential was consumed by an overambitious, unfocused project.

Split Fiction

9.5/10

Split Fiction feels like the culmination of what Josef Fares and Hazelight Studios’ team have learned since making Brothers and A Way Out. Both were solid games, and It Takes Two’s success was our first glimpse at what the studio was truly capable of. Split Fiction is everything I could...

Monster Hunter Wilds

9.5/10

The year 2025 is shaping up to be a remarkable time for RPGs, with hits like Avowed and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Monster Hunter Wilds will likely seal the deal, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see it take the top spot in Capcom’s collection.

Tomb Raider IV V VI Remastered

7.5/10

All in all, I don’t blame the developers for AOD’s shortcomings. This one was just too broken to ever fix. I find the other two remasters more than enough to justify the trilogy’s asking price if you are a fan. If you aren’t, then you’re better off getting into the...

Avowed

9/10

There are many more topics I could go on about the game, but it’s probably best for you to experience it for yourself. Avowed is one of the best RPGs I’ve played in 2025, and I’m not even much of a role-playing genre fanatic. If that’s convinced you enough, hop...

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

9.5/10

While Kingdom Come: Deliverance was a solid title worthy of being called a great open-world RPG, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 essentially redefines what it means to be a great open-world RPG. It’s one of those worlds you not only want to tell your friends about, but you want to watch...

Sid Meier's Civilization VII

9/10

Regardless of my minor gripes with the game, Civilization 7 is a ton of fun. The Ages system is a major game-changer and really enhances the genre in a big way. Firaxis probably could have gotten away with a safer approach with this installment, opting for just better graphics. Instead,...

Hello Kitty Island Adventure

9/10

With updates coming out every month and recurring events changing things up, every day feels different on this island. I’m looking forward to seeing how Hello Kitty Island Adventure’s future unfolds.

Blade Chimera

8/10

However, it’s done with a lot of skill and a tangible amount of passion. If it’s something of a clone of Symphony of the Night, it’s less plagiarism and more “imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. It makes itself worthwhile with solid design and enjoyable combat. It hides a...
