• PS5
• 5 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A 90s style JRPG with dungeon exploration, random monster encounters, and a penchant for crafting, whose rough and ready production values undermine its comforting milieu.

• PS5
• 8 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A small but welcome improvement on Fallen Order, that offers little in the way of originality but does have some of the best lightsaber fights and Soulslite action this side of the Outer Rim.

• SWITCH
• 9 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

An excellent remake of one of the best strategy games of all time, that is as accessible and versatile as an action game but has some of the most deceptively deep tactical combat ever seen in a console release.

• PS5
• 7 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A surprisingly lean and mean sequel which amplifies the bloody thrills of the original through its impressive presentation and flexible mechanics.

• PS5
• 8 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

An exceptionally pretty slice of DLC that does nothing to address the faults of the main game but does manage to emphasise its many successes, especially the graphics.

• XSX/S
• 5 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A failed attempt to turn Minecraft into a real-time strategy game, that goes out of its way to be as shallow as possible and is made worse by fiddly controls and terrible AI.

• SWITCH
• 7 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A welcome reminder of an unfairly forgotten franchise, but while Battle Network is an ingenious and fun action role-player it is possible to have too much of a good thing.

• SWITCH
• 8 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

An entertaining and fiercely satirical evocation of a future corporate dystopia, that manages to be both genuinely funny and surprisingly varied in its gameplay.

• PS5
• 6 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

• PS5
• 6 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

More up close and personal zombie slaying in post-apocalyptic New Orleans, retaining the original’s focus on exploration and crafting, and its relentlessly uninspiring combat.

• PC
• 3 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

An unlikeable, repetitive, and blandly designed clone of Payday that wastes its celebrity filled cast on an equally substandard script.

• PS5
• 7 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

One of the best post-Breath Of The Wild open world adventures, but while the game’s heavily influenced by Zelda it ultimately plumps for amiable exploration over more rugged adventure.

• PS5
• 9 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

More a reimagining than a straight remake but despite the difficulty of recapturing lighting in a bottle, this is both a loving tribute to the original Resident Evil 4 and a great game in its own right.

• PS5
• 7 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A solidly constructed VR roguelite that combines guns and magic for some memorable runs, even if its graphics and setting won’t be winning any awards.

• SWITCH
• 5 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A peculiarly pitched spin-off that has almost nothing to interest Bayonetta fans and instead offers an Ōkami Lite experience that is so undemanding it almost seems to run on autopilot.

• XSX/S
• 8 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

An improvement on last year’s already firm foundations, WWE 2K23 continues the franchise’s rebirth with steady improvements, beefed up game modes, and an epic recreation of WarGames.

• PS5
• 5 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

• PC
• 7 / 10
• Royaume-Uni

A short but sweet VR romp that replicates the Peaky Blinders universe perfectly, even as it runs up against some of the intrinsic limitations of VR gaming on the Meta Quest 2.
