For better and worse, Pokemon Champions achieves its goal. It’s a competitive battling game that does a fantastic job of onboarding casual fans while streamlining much of what made constructing a battle-ready team in the mainline games so long-winded.
Crimson Desert
It’s developed by Pearl Abyss, a South Korean studio that developed the massive MMORPG, Black Desert Online. Rather than being connected to Black Desert, it’s an entirely separate single-player open-world action game.
Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly Remake doesn’t just enhance a beloved PS2 survival horror classic – it rises above it to deliver thrilling ghostly encounters that will keep you glued to your camera lens.
Yearly sports games have a history of doing very little to improve the experience with each entry, and while the WWE 2K series typically offers a bit more than your standard sports title, this year’s installment really feels more like just another expansion.
Marathon

Whether you’re hitting topspins past Baby Wario or dodging Bowser’s flames, Mario Tennis Fever is a blast. Across its many challenges and chaotic party modes, it’s the most fun sports game in years.
Instead of another iteration, Nioh 3 reworks the foundations of the series, trading its tightly controlled, mission-based structure for a fully open world. It’s the most radical change Team Ninja has made to the series yet, and one that, overall, sticks the landing.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7
Fans have been eating well in 2025. The Battlefield series is back to its explosive best with Battlefield 6, and ARC Raiders’ mix of tense gunfights and unforgettable moments has produced one of the best multiplayer shooters since Overwatch in 2016.
Every now and again, a shooter comes along that changes the game. Half-Life 2 did it, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare did it, and so did Fortnite. That’s exactly what ARC Raiders does too. It’s that good.
