Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered is barely a remaster and feels more like a definitive edition port of a game that wasn’t great to begin with. As Garcia Hotspur enters Hell to save his beloved, he’s enter a world full of dick jokes, bland combat, and boring design.

Phasmophobia has arrived on Xbox Series X/S and PS5. This masterclass in co-op horror is still under Early Access/Game Preview, but the spooks are solid and the game has launched in a good state. If you’ve been dying to play this, now’s the time!

Ys X: Nordics sees Adol on yet another adventure as he teams up with a powerful warrior named Karja to stop an old evil from returning to conquer the seas. Nordics has engaging combat and a fairly decent story, but its ship combat and systems greatly disappoint.

Developed by the minds behind Persona 5 Royal, Metaphor: ReFantazio is a remarkable fantasy journey that leans into many mechanics known throughout the Persona series. As a young Elda is on a mission to save the cursed Prince, he will gain allies in an effort to take the throne and vanquish the curse to save the kingdom.

Hot Wheels Monster Trucks: Stunt Mayhem allows you to command over 20 Monster Trucks that look so great you can almost smell the plastic. However, bland objectives, lacking environments, and a weightless control can get in the way of what should be a banger of a title.

Just Dance 2025 has what fans of the series will likely want; more songs. Those who are committed to subscribing to the Just Dance+ service are likely this game's target audience and the appeal of having hundreds of songs available to you is certainly present across all of its menus.

Neva is Nomada Studio's follow-up to Gris. As Alba, you'll care for a young wolf pup as a plague infects the land around her. As the seasons change, Neva will grow, becoming a fierce component of her arsenal. Together, they will challenge the very darkness around them in a gorgeous game that needs to be experienced.

Shogun Showdown, a tile-based 2D roguelite with some clever strategy elements, wears its trial and error systems with pride, a game that can often have you feeling like a genius one moment, and a complete idiot the next. 

Astro Bot is frankly superb in its execution, offering delightful worlds, abilities, and charm. It’s presentation across its celebration of PlayStation’s history is twofold; one where it honors what came before and the other side of the coin in that it shows how much PlayStation has intentionally left behind.

Kill Knight has you playing as a reanimated corpse of a once loyal knight. While there isn’t much of a narrative presence across the game or past that simple premise, the focus instead is on providing a series of ever-changing hellscapes as you attempt to carve, slice, and mutilate anything that stands in your way.
