Trails into Reverie is the culmination of three individual sagas spanning nearly 20 years. While it certainly feels like a third entry in the Crossbell Saga, it certainly follows in the footsteps of Trails of Cold Steel, bookending various story and character arcs. It may retread some story ideas and falter in its narrative, but Reverie is still an impressive conclusion worthy of your time.

Aliens: Dark Descent captures the appeal and tone of the 1986 film in ways few have. The tactical squad-based gameplay is incredibly engaging, with a fantastic character progression system and a great story to wrap it all in. While Dark Descent excels in most areas, a host of technical issues can certainly get in its way.

Diablo IV was, in a lot of ways, under a great of pressure to perform, especially given that modern Blizzard Entertainment hasn’t had a much-needed win for years, especially given the reception of Diablo Immortal. Nonetheless, Diablo IV succeeds in providing a captivating story and enthralling gameplay, all designed around a long-awaited return to its bloody and gothic aesthetic.

Tears of the Kingdom does a lot to improve on nearly every issue I personally had with BOTW, creating a very sandbox-heavy experience that often results in a very satisfying game that does the best it can to offer the experience I had hoped for.

Neptunia: Sisters vs Sisters is a spin-off, taking place after the events of Megadimension Neptunia VII, and while it can be fun, a barely there difficulty and bland level design sadly place this title as one of the more disappointing entries I've played so far. 

Redfall, developed by Arkane Austin, is the developer’s follow-up to 2017’s Prey. However, with development troubles and an unclear vision, Redfall is a game that not only fractured the studio, but shipped with a host of technical issues, bland design, and a lack of understanding of what it wants to be.

Layers of Fear is a reimagining of 2016's Layers of Fear, its Inheritance DLC, as well as 2019's Layers of Fear 2. It also contains two new additions in the "Writer's Story" which ties the events of each game together via a brand new character and the "Final Note" chapter which bookends the events of the first game. 

SENSEs: Midnight is a standalone sequel to Sense: A Cyberpunk Ghost Story, and while it is far more ambitious than its predecessor, its reliance on frustrating controls and excessive backtracking, drains the soul out of this paranormal mystery.
