Bugbear Entertainment, the developer behind Flatout, is back with Wreckfest, a return to the glory days of Destruction Derby while also feeling like a successor to Flatout itself. While the title can certainly offer a trip down memory lane, its technical problems and last gen visuals hold it back from standing alongside the greats.
Remnant: From the Ashes
Crafted by the development team behind Darksiders 3, comes a Dark Souls flavored co-op shooter that is wildly satisfying, albeit wholly unoriginal at every turn. Its inspirations are apparent everywhere, but developer Gunfire Games has created a very enjoyable and thrilling co-op shooter that rewards you constantly with a solid progression system and collection of fun and engaging weaponry.
Fire Emblem: The Three Houses
When Three Houses was announced for the Nintendo Switch, I was more hyped for this than any game currently available on the platform. While its story doesn’t quite live up to the previous entries I’ve enjoyed, mostly due to some poorly handled reveals and its failure to offer us up a compelling villain, Three Houses succeeds greatly due to its vast replayability, and yet another memorable cast to add to the franchise.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood
Taking place several years after The New Colossus, starring the daughters of series lead, BJ Blazkowicz, the game certainly has its own unique flavor due to the dorky and often hilarious duo. By the time the credits rolled, I was pleased with Wolfenstein: Youngblood, but its journey is not entirely and wholly satisfying.
