Capcom Fighting Collection 2

9/10

Where its predecessor largely focused on DarkStalkers – including a couple of titles which never released outside of Japan – Capcom Fighting Collection 2 mostly turns its attention to SEGA’s infamous NAOMI arcade board, so we’re looking at a compilation of mostly Dreamcast-era brawlers here.

The Precinct

8/10

The Precinct is an indie game with ambition. Its fictional 1980s setting of Averno City is an enjoyably complex little sandbox, presenting players with an endless supply of procedurally generated crimes that need to be stopped from a top-down perspective, reminiscent of old Grand Theft Auto games.

Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition

8/10

When you think of the real-time strategy genre, Age of Empires 2 is probably the first game which springs to mind. Originally released way back in 1999, the legendary Ensemble outing served as a gateway into the world of strategy for many gamers.

The Midnight Walk

8/10

The Midnight Walk is a beautifully poignant kind of experience. It’s one filled with misery, heartbreak, and sorrow — all personified by the game’s impeccable claymation visual design. But it’s one you need to let wash over you before its true brilliance begins to show — and for us, it...

Little Kitty, Big City

6/10

Little Kitty, Big City is the latest in an expanding litter of animal-themed sandbox games. Much like Goat Simulator 3 or Untitled Goose Game, this is a cosy game with vague objectives and no real consequences if you make a mistake.

Doom: The Dark Ages

8/10

DOOM: The Dark Ages is different, and whether that’s a good thing or not is dictated almost entirely by how you feel about id Software’s last game. After the breakneck DOOM Eternal, the developer has dialled its action back for a medieval prequel that feels reserved in comparison.

Despelote

5/10

For so many supporters around the world, football is more than just a sport about kicking a ball into the back of the net. A cultural touchstone, a way to bond and form friendships, a reason to travel — it’s a way of life.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster

7/10

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion was a landmark release for open world games in 2006, and although it was soon bettered by other titles both mechanically and technically, it never lost its own magic.

Days Gone Remastered

8/10

Perhaps more so than any other Sony game of the PS4 generation, time has been kind to Days Gone. What was once a mocked, borderline broken open worlder is now stable, expanded, and backed by enthusiasts.

Forza Horizon 5

8/10

As we cruise around Mexico in a car emblazoned with Xbox logos and listening to Halo music on the radio, it's fair to say Forza Horizon 5 being on PS5 feels a little surreal.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

9/10

A quirky RPG not quite like anything you’ve played before, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is one of those games where the less you know going in, the better. Many of its systems, themes, and features will feel fairly familiar. However, the way first-time studio Sandfall Interactive has moulded those pieces...

Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves

7/10

SNK, once on the brink of bankruptcy, is back with a marketing budget that would make genre titans Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat blush.
