Diablo IV is a massive and deeply engrossing action RPG that continually seduces players with its promises of power and riches and regularly follows through.
Planet of Lana II: Children of the Leaf
7.75/10
78
Planet of Lana boasts a gorgeous presentation, but trekking through this strange world doesn’t always inspire the same awe.
Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores
8/10
80
Aloy’s trip to Hollywood justifies its existence by meaningfully building upon the base game’s story, paving a strong runway for the next title to take off.
WWE 2K23
Game Informer
8/10
80
2K23's similarities to its predecessor means it feels more formulaic than special, but it still continues the series’ overall positive trajectory.
Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon
8.75/10
88
Much like the young Cereza herself, Bayonetta Origins doesn’t look like much on the surface, but this exceptional and refreshing change of pace for the franchise kept a smile permanently plastered on my face.
Before Your Eyes

8.5/10

Before Your Eyes puts its unique blinking mechanic to great use, offering a novel and fun method of interacting with this memorable, bittersweet tale. We've also updated the review to highlight the excellent PlayStation VR2 version.
Deliver Us Mars

6.75/10

A captivating story carries an otherwise mediocre journey on the Red Planet.
Harvestella
Game Informer
6.75/10
68
Harvestella's mash-up of dungeon-crawling action and farming simulation can be enjoyable, but the styles clash more often than not, resulting in a sluggish, frustrating grind.
A Little to the Left
Game Informer
8/10
80
A Little to the Left may have left me scratching my head in confusion at times, but more often, it left me pleased and content with the neatly arranged spaces I created.
Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope
9/10

Sparks of Hope's more dynamic combat and emphasis on flexibility places it well above its predecessor.

Dorfromantik combines pieces of strategic city-building with a cozy atmosphere to form an engaging, relaxing puzzler.

Don't let this charming Pikmin-like platformer sneak under your radar.
Ooblets
Game Informer
6.75/10

Ooblets can be a delightful chill pill, but tedious design makes it feel more laborious than satisfying.
Madison
Game Informer
7.25/10
73
Madison can frighten the pants off of players when it wants to, but its reliance on cheap jump scares, and some frustrating puzzle design gets in its way.
Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course
8.75/10
88
Ms. Chalice brings her A-game in an entertaining and challenging send-off for Cuphead and Mugman.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge
8.75/10
88
Shredder's Revenge is a raucously fun throwback that recaptures the glory days of TMNT brawlers.
Kao the Kangaroo Trilogy
Game Informer
6/10
60
Kao’s big comeback is a wholly unremarkable, by-the-numbers platformer that inspires little more than indifference.
WWE 2K22
Game Informer
8/10
80
WWE 2K22's revamped, simplified gameplay makes it the most enjoyable entry in some time and gets the franchise back on the right track.

Windjammers 2 gives existing fans more of the wacky disc hockey they love but not much else.
