PC, PS5 and Xbox game reviews in 2025-2026: complete and honest critiques, no inflated scores. We play to the end and tell you everything.
IO Interactive delivers the best Bond game since GoldenEye 1997. 88 on Metacritic, their best score, and writing that exceeded everything we hoped for. We had doubts about the story. We were wrong.
Realm of Ink arrives with an ink and calligraphy art direction that captures attention immediately. The real question, in a genre this saturated: is that enough to make a good game?
A LEGO game that pays tribute to every version of Batman from Tim Burton to Reeves' The Batman, with a combat system borrowed from the Arkham games and a Gotham open world among the best of the year. Nobody saw it coming.
Good Feel doesn't remake Crafted World. They build something without a precise genre name: a side-scrolling sandbox where each level is a creature to understand. Inventive, beautiful, and almost without challenge.
Forza Horizon 6 arrives in Japan with the best map in the series, slightly improved progression, and an AI that's still as maddening as ever. It's FH5, better, in a place that finally deserves it.
Five years of Dark Pictures for this: an alien that mimics its prey, genuine paranoia, and finally an entry that justifies the series' existence.
Beethoven & Dinosaur returns with a game about the end of high school, music as a universal language, and memories you thought you'd put away. The soundtrack is magnificent. The story is gripping. We flipped the tape.
The creators of CrossCode return with Juno, a chosen outcast who must break Nyx's curse in a world abandoned by gods. The demo took two and a half hours. We wanted more.
We'd been watching Ozark a little too closely. We hoped to launder millions like a ruthless banker. Cash Cleaner Simulator taught us that laundering money is mostly just a lot of laundry.
