Unfortunately, while Laika: Aged Through Blood's general design and mechanics are near-flawless and bolstered by incredible art direction, a poignant, heart-wrenching narrative, and a beautifully melancholic soundtrack, recommending the title comes with some substantial caveats. For those who can wrap their mind around the game's unique approach to traversal, Laika:...
While Rift of the NecroDancer misses a few beats, such as hiding some features behind menus, it still innovates and impresses in many ways. On its own, it's an enjoyable experience with a gameplay loop that's addicting even when it frustrates. Rift of the NecroDancer still knows how to stand...
Technically a spinoff and not a fully-fledged mainline sequel, Sniper Elite: Resistance sees players assume the role of Harry Hawker, a Special Operations Executive agent tasked with hunting down a secret Nazi super-weapon that could jeopardize the imminent D-Day operation, a journey that takes Hawker across WW2-era France. In a...
The Stone of Madness isn’t a game for everyone, but it’s hard not to request that even the more discerning player give it a try. The game's somewhat bizarre and disturbing art style remains a high point, and even those unaccustomed to real-time tactical strategy titles may find the game’s...
Orcs Must Die! Deathtrap is good, but in a very workmanlike sort of way. Although it's not the most surprising or inventive multiplayer game on the market, it upholds the strong balance of strategy and real-time gameplay that made the franchise so beloved in the first place. Fans of previous...
Even with these problems and judged in a vacuum, Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is a masterpiece 2D platformer. Charging $60 for what is essentially a better-looking take on the 3DS version of a game that is 15 years old, however, won't sit right with everyone. Those who played Donkey...

But like most Star Wars games, it became a core part of some fans' childhood. Developer/publisher Aspyr is tapping into that nostalgia with its 2025 port of Star...
Not only is Tales of Graces f Remastered the definitive version of what is arguably one of the best games in the series, but it's also a firm foundation for the future of other Tales remakes and remasters. As a Tales game, it delivers on all fronts, with charming characters...
A mostly bland story and a lack of additional playable characters are the only major faults with Dynasty Warriors: Origins. It is the most polished, mechanically rewarding, and technically impressive game in the series so far, and an easy pickup for fans of the franchise, provided they're open to new...
Freedom Wars Remastered's extensive endgame will give players plenty of time to fight countless Abductors and really immerse themselves in the gameplay loop. One could argue that the "real" game begins once Freedom Wars Remastered's story is over, and as long as one enjoys these kinds of Monster Hunter-style games,...
Prior to the modern Fairy Tail games, the series' only video game adaptations were a pair of Japanese-exclusive PSP titles that never received localizations. The release of Fairy Tail in 2020 was a welcome surprise for longtime fans of the incredibly popular Fairy Tail manga and anime, adapting the series'...
Marvel Rivals feels like the first serious contender to Overwatch's crown; it's a game I can see being a part of my multiplayer rotation indefinitely. And the thing is, Marvel Rivals at launch is just the tip of the iceberg. There are near-endless possibilities for new roster and map additions...
