Darwin's Paradox
Darwin’s Paradox! brings some genuinely fresh ideas to the platforming genre, but the feeling its net wasn’t cast wide enough is unshakeable.
Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection is a faithful and feature-complete revival of the original games, but its appeal leans heavily on nostalgia. The quality-of-life additions are welcome, yet they do little to elevate a gameplay loop that now feels overly simple and repetitive.
Project Songbird
Project Songbird is a short psychological horror experience that focuses on telling a personal story rather than throwing jumpscares your way.

Pokémon Pokopia
Pokemon Pokopia is, very literally, everything you’d expect and want a Pokemon life sim game to be, and a lot more you’d never even known you wanted. Charming, bursting to the seams with personality, and dangerously addictive to near lethal levels, Pokemon Pokopia is arguably the best Pokemon spin-off of all...
World of Warcraft: Midnight is off to a fantastic start, with a campaign that, while uneven in places, ends on a strong note. Paired with an excellent new casual gameplay pillar in player housing, as well as more dungeons, delves, and class options, it already feels like a strong expansion.
