As the new Floor Manager at Slimey’s, a bar that has four unique Slime Girls working their bodies to produce drinks, you’ll get to know the girl’s strengths and weaknesses and even get to know them a bit more personally.

Marble it Up! Ultra is a return to the world of Marble it Up! With a wealth of stages, unlocks, and goals to work towards, not to mention a whole multiplayer suite, being a colorful little marble has never been more fun.

Deck13 has largely made a name for themselves by adapting the Fromsoft formula across both 2014's Lords of the Fallen and their futuristic follow-up in The Surge. So when it was shown that the team would leave that formula behind in favor of a character action game, I was more than intrigued.

While the Sword and Fairy series has had limited exposure in the West, bringing characters from that series and mixing it up with a restaurant sim isn’t actually a bad idea. Given the cute nature of its visuals and concept, I fully expected to find a charming little adventure within its Inn, but ended up wishing I had booked elsewhere instead. 

Remnant II takes all the ideas that worked previously and doubles down on them to an extent that makes this a damn near-perfect sequel. While it doesn’t reinvent or add to the genre, Remnant II is nonetheless a damn impressive outing.

While countless beat-em up's have been released since Double Dragon's debut in 1987, few have provided as much variety and replayability as the latest entry in the series, Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons. 

Exoprimal was a big surprise out of Capcom when it was first revealed. While its core foundation and gameplay is remarkably solid, the lack of additional game modes and variety can make the title fairly repetitive. Still, Exoprimal largely succeeds with engaging gameplay and a diverse cast of Exo-suit fighters.

While Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara continue the events of this young adventurer, it's a considerably different and drastically scaled-back journey, one built around Koa visiting numerous islands to complete a series of platforming trials put in place by the five Pirates of Mara. 

While Killsquad certainly has its shortcomings, I still found its gameplay to succeed in the end, offering a pretty enjoyable game when taking on its contracts with other players. Without a story to connect you to its world, your mileage may vary on whether its gameplay and customization are enough to keep you playing.

Dave the Diver combines the unpredictable nature of a rogue-lite with the hustle and bustle of working a sushi bar, complete with your own staff and dishes prepared from the ingredients you catch. This fusion works as well as its menu, a mixture of tastes and flavors as you also uncover a secret brewing at the bottom of the sea.

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.
