The Precinct goes beyond offering a police simulator and offers an entertaining cycle of work days while we clear the streets of criminals and unravel the mystery of their history. The chases are fabulous and worth a try for just that, although its shootouts and other on-foot mechanics aren't as polished. A very enjoyable and addictive 1980s open world.

Returning to play Deacon St. John and exploring the dangerous lands of Farewell felt like a trip back in time to 2019. The experience was more rewarding than expected thanks to its new features, extending the hours of enjoyment beyond the game's main plot even further. Days Gone Remastered delivers on absolutely every front, proving itself to be a more than adequate remake, not only for existing players but also for new ones who decide to delve into it.

DOOM: The Dark Ages has managed to distance itself enough from Eternal to avoid being overwhelmed by its legacy and create its own that lives up to what the series needed: a third installment that feels like a DOOM, but not the "nth" DOOM. Almost like a fascinating mix between a first-person shooter and a hack and slash, id Software has created something unique... again.

Expedition 33 is one of those experiences that redefine your concept of what an RPG can be. What Sandfall Interactive has achieved in their debut is simply astonishing: a narrative that captivates you from the first second with adult characters facing complex moral dilemmas; a revolutionary turn-based combat system that transforms each encounter into a strategic dance full of tension; and a visually stunning world that masterfully blends Belle Époque with dark fantasy. The conversations at the campfires have made me laugh, cry, and reflect on life itself. Its bosses have challenged me like few games manage to do. And its soundtrack continues to resonate in my head weeks after finishing the adventure. More than a game, it's an interactive work of art that will remain in my memory for years. Without exaggeration, one of the best debuts from a studio that I've seen in decades as both a player and critic.

Maliki: Poison of the Past is a game that pleasantly surprises. It offers an innovative combat system, a visually charming world, and charismatic characters. Its flaws, while present, don't overshadow the many things it does well. For fans of the webcomic, this game will be a delight, allowing them to explore the Maliki universe from a new perspective. For newcomers, it's an excellent entry point to this franchise, with enough appeal to keep you hooked even if you've never heard of Maliki before.

Steel Seed is a competent and polished game that demonstrates Storm in a Teacup's growing ambitions. Its stealth mechanics, art direction, and precision of its basic controls showcase a studio that is increasingly mastering its craft. However, its excessive adherence to formulas established by major studios limits its potential to truly stand out. I enjoyed my time with Steel Seed despite its limitations. Its lack of originality may be its greatest weakness, but it also makes it an accessible and familiar experience for fans of the genre.

The long wait has finally come to an end, and it was well worth it: Assassin's Creed Shadows is an incredible experience by Ubisoft taking place in a beautiful feudal Japan. The game boasts an incredible number of activities and side quests which considerably enlarge the game's overall length, and even complement the main plot adding some relevant data. Yasuke and Noe are very different characters, especially when it comes to batlle, but in the end the two of them are equally enjoyable. The icing on the cake comes from both the visual aspect as well as the sound design, which definitely help providing the most immersive of experiences.

And the thing is that Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition stands out for practically the same reasons as its sister installments: fun gameplay, a good story, charismatic characters (although in this work they are not as much as in other titles in the saga) and, above all, a world that is overwhelming to see and explore due to how vast it is. Huge, yes. And also very dangerous, as I mentioned in the analysis. But it is a joy to get lost and discover scenarios, each one more impressive than the last, with scenarios that are the envy of many current open worlds.

Suikoden I & II HD Remaster does a nice job at remastering two classic entries that were once absolute references in the JRPG genre. There are a bunch of improvements, such as the noticeable increase in battle speed as well as the ability to easily enable the auto-battle mode. However, the UI still lacks elements to actually make this feel like a revolutionary step-up when it comes to user experience.

Split Fiction is the resulting product of taking the core elements of what made It Takes Two such a great game and just brainstorming all kinds of entertaining and unexpected concepts. Hazelight has done it once again, and you should expect to see the new game by Josef Fares's team amongst the most highly regarded games in The Game Awards 2025.

Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection is the definitive compilation of classic handheld titles from its reign over card games. These are simple, unbalanced games, but charming and highly addictive. It doesn't seek to reinvent itself or compete within the genre, but rather to offer fans a gift that will relive a fun-filled era.

Monster Hunter Wilds is a natural evolution of the series, improving on almost every aspect of its predecessors. While the main campaign can be a bit short, the real game begins in the post-game, where the possibilities multiply and the challenges become truly exciting.

It remains to be seen how this work will end with film number 2, which will be released next April, but for now, we have been delighted by Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. It offers a narrative adventure full of very charismatic characters, impeccable artistic design and a soundtrack used with skill at the most appropriate moments.

Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered is a collection that does justice to a complex era of the series. These are imperfect but fascinating games, which now shine more than ever thanks to the work of Aspyr.

After more than 30 hours of gameplay, I can safely say that Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is exactly the kind of madness we needed. It's a game that embraces the absurdity of its premise and turns it into its greatest strength. The story kept me engaged, the characters are memorable, and every aspect of the game is bursting with personality.

Avowed demonstrates that Obsidian remains a studio capable of challenging RPG genre conventions. They've created a more focused experience that seeks to innovate in fundamental gameplay mechanics. The combination of vertical exploration, magical combat, and complex narrative points to a title that aims to rise above genre clichés. However, the game suffers from fundamental inconsistencies that prevent it from reaching its full potential. The lack of voice acting, fragmented narrative, limited NPCs, and reduced content variety burden a proposition that promises more than it ultimately delivers. The ability to switch between perspectives, far from being innovative, ends up undermining immersion rather than enhancing it.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PC is currently a bittersweet experience. The base game is exceptional, with an engaging narrative and polished gameplay, but technical issues are too frequent to ignore. Even with powerful hardware like our setup, the experience is far from optimal.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a masterpiece that has achieved the impossible: improving on its predecessor in every aspect while maintaining its essence. Despite its demanding initial learning curve, it offers a unique and rewarding experience that rewards patience and dedication with unforgettable moments. A cinematic narrative, high-quality side quests, and hours of entertainment are the major incentives to help Henry in one of the year's best adventures.

Civilization VII represents the most ambitious leap forward in the series' history. Firaxis has managed to modernize the formula while maintaining the essence that has made the series great. The introduction of the Dynamic Eras system, the revamping of combat and diplomacy, along with improvements to urban development, create an experience that feels fresh and familiar at the same time.
