REVIEW — “Resident Evil Requiem” is a thrilling and chilling dual-sided romp

by Jon Yelenic | Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 25 Feb 2026

With grotesque scares as potent as its pulse-pounding action and puzzle-box level design as engaging as any given combat scenario, Resident Evil Requiem is an engrossing thrill ride throughout that hooked me from the start, and in true Resident Evil fashion, has kept me on that hook long after the credits rolled the first, second, and even third time.

REVIEW – “Disney Afternoon Collection” is out again for people who are Bonkers about having these games on Switch

by Kayla Merritt | Nintendo Switch Nintendo Switch 2 PC Reviews Xbox One | 0 Comments | 25 Feb 2026

Two new games, Bonkers and Goof Troop from the SNES, headline this release of Disney Afternoon Collection. Is it worth potentially double dipping if you already own this compilation on another platform just to get these two additional games? That depends on your nostalgia for the cartoons these games are based on. For everyone else, Disney Afternoon Collection is a great compilation of classic 8-bit games.

REVIEW – “Avowed” on PS5 is still a magical RPG despite initial reception

by Chris Penwell | PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 24 Feb 2026

I’m glad I was able to ignore the overall negative sentiment around the game and play the PS5 version of Avowed, which now has the anniversary update. The reason? Avowed is a unique RPG with thrilling combat and an intriguing storyline that features a God in your head.

REVIEW – “MY HERO ACADEMIA: All’s Justice” doesn’t do a meaningful series much justice

by Adriana Rodriguez | PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 24 Feb 2026

I really enjoyed my time with this. On the other hand, I’m not sure if I’d be able to recommend this if it wasn’t a game based on one of my favorite anime. It’s definitely for the diehard fans that know the source material and have been keeping up with the series for years. If it weren’t for some of the balancing issues, I wouldn’t have minded some of the painful flaws. Sadly here, if you remove one issue, another two grow in its place.

[Steam Next Fest] Hands-On: “Akatori” still needs polish

by Chris Selogy | Nintendo Switch PC Previews Videos | 0 Comments | 23 Feb 2026

This feels like a demo for a game that still has a lot of work to go before it’s ready for launch, so I hope the developers get the time this demo needs to fulfill its potential.

[Steam Next Fest] Hands-On: “Wax Heads” captures the communal connection music has through a slice-of-life narrative sim

As someone that prides himself on being able to recommend new, cool music to my pals, Wax Heads just hits all the right buttons so far.

[Steam Next Fest] Hands-On: “Armatus” promises a darkened, kinetic shooter experience for the roguelite landscape

by David Rodriguez | Nintendo Switch 2 PC PlayStation 5 Previews Steam Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 20 Feb 2026

We’re not particularly starving for roguelites. Now a favorite of indie developers the world over for around a decade, it takes a lot for a new one to stand out among the crowd in gameplay, but also in art style. The ones I usually play tend to be on the brighter, sillier side with levity or at least a sense of humor to balance out the drama a la both Hades games. Armatus dares to be a little different with a dark, apocalyptic take for the setting while retaining a gameplay loop that makes genre fans ravenous.

REVIEW – “God of War: Sons of Sparta” is a solid story hidden in an epic slog of a journey

by Danreb Victorio | PlayStation 5 Reviews | 0 Comments | 19 Feb 2026

God of War: Sons of Sparta was shadow dropped after long being rumored to be in development. As you’d expect, it sent the internet into a bit of a frenzy, but after rolling credits on the game, those who decide to see it through should find a solid story of a much younger Kratos we aren’t familiar with. The problem is seeing it through will require patience likely too demanding of a spartan.

REVIEW – “Love Eternal” is a weird horror platformer with an enthralling narrative

by Myles Obenza | PC Reviews Steam Xbox One Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 19 Feb 2026

It’s not every day a game has such a profound emotional effect on me, and even less so with pixel art platformers. But Love Eternal is one of the weirdest games I’ve ever played, and in all the most complimentary ways.

REVIEW – Despite great tennis, “Mario Tennis Fever” is too fluffy to recommend fully

by Kayla Merritt | Nintendo Switch 2 Reviews | 0 Comments | 18 Feb 2026

Mario Tennis Fever, at its core, is a great game of tennis. Features this time around add a lot more to the core game than previous titles, and both the online and local multiplayer modes are pretty great. Unfortunately, the lack of quality content makes this hard to recommend to everyone.

REVIEW — “Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition” is a slightly bittersweet love letter to fans

by Tanay Sharma | Nintendo Switch PC PlayStation 5 Reviews Xbox Series X | 0 Comments | 17 Feb 2026

These edition(s) of Rayman come with limitations that will easily be noticed by someone who has played the games on their original platforms and knows what it’s like to journey through the platformer through different accessibility options. “Old is gold” only applies to experiences that are worthy of shining, but not all that glitters is gold.
