Tokyo Xtreme Racer

8/10

Tokyo Xtreme Racer feels like an absolute blast from the past in terms of its gameplay mechanics, overall structure, and how it tells its campy story, while still looking like a modern-day racing game that anyone can enjoy.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger

6/10

Digimon Story: Time Stranger follows up on Cyber Sleuth in some solid ways but falters heavily with its narrative, characters, and exploration.

Slime Rancher 2

8/10

Slime Rancher 2 not only feels like a great sequel that builds on foundations laid with the original, but also a great game in its own right.

Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles

9/10

Nearly three decades later, Final Fantasy Tactics still stands tall as the pinnacle of tactical RPG design. The Ivalice Chronicles refines its strengths with modern updates, even if a few minor flaws hold it back from perfection.

Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & the White Guardian

7/10

Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist and the White Guardian isn't a revolutionary addition to the RPG genre, but nails down its execution well enough to be an entertaining game in its own right. The alchemy system is surprisingly deep while its combat mechanics are decent for an evening of fun...

Hades 2

9/10

Improving and expanding on everything that made the first game so memorable, Hades 2 is an even more epic rogue-lite journey and Supergiant's best work yet.

Ghost of Yotei

9/10

While fans of the original may initially find it more iterative than evolutionary, Atsu's quest for vengeance is an incredible new tale from Sucker Punch that expands on Tsushima in all the best ways.

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor

8/10

A fine addition to a young genre, Survivor adds smart twists, most notably its level-based structure; however, unlike the mainline Deep Rock Galactic, it’s single-player only.

Silent Hill f

9/10

Despite its simplistic combat and clunky combat animations, Silent Hill f still delivers one of 2025’s quintessential horror experiences.

EA Sports FC 26

8/10

EA Sports FC 26 refines the formula with Authentic mode and better defending, making it a strong entry for fans. Still, it’s an iterative release with limited appeal for newcomers or those seeking major changes.

Dying Light: The Beast

9/10

Dying Light: The Beast is a polished, well-crafted experience that builds on the franchise's strengths while adding new creative flourishes to its formula.

Sonic Racing: Cross Worlds

9/10

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds combines blistering pace, smart systems, and ever-evolving, celebratory track design to deliver the most confident, complete Sonic racer to date.
