MechWarrior 5: Clans reviewed on PC by Will Borger. Also available on Xbox and PlayStation. MechWarrior 5: Clans surprised me with its excellent campaign, carried by a thoughtful, well-told story, great mission design, fantastic walking-tank combat, and all of the customization you could want. I genuinely loved playing Clans, especially in co-op, and several story

Ara: History Untold reviewed on PC by Leana Hafer. While Ara: History Untold is a visually captivating historical 4X with an interesting underlying economy, it gets bogged down well before the midway point, mainly because it doesn’t provide enough tools and UI support to manage all of the things it expects you to manage.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom reviewed by Tom Marks on Nintendo Switch. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is far greater than a gimmicky spinoff led by Zelda instead of Link. Its echo summoning is used to cleverly combine the expertly crafted dungeons, puzzle rooms, and item progression you’d expect from a

Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster reviewed by Luke Reilly on PC. Also available on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. “Above all, Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster preserves the iconic original’s experience while including some very logical and welcome modern adjustments, like auto-saving, a new navigation system, and NPCs that seem less inclined to serve themselves for

Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown reviewed by Luke Reilly on PC. Also available on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. “Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown is far and away the most ambitious driving game that developer KT Racing has ever put together, but it’s plagued with problems.

Monster Jam Showdown reviewed by Luke Reilly on Xbox Series X. Also available on PlayStation, PC, and Nintendo Switch. “Monster Jam Showdown distinguishes itself from the last two decades of officially licensed Monster Jam games by actually delivering a decent, if modest, serving of monster truck mayhem. It’s a great looking, family-friendly racer that feels

Concord reviewed by Travis Northup on PC and PlayStation 5. Concord isn’t the most innovative or content-heavy hero shooter you could play, but with such fantastic competitive gameplay, 16 compelling characters to master, and 12 well-designed maps, it’s got the makings of something that could go the distance in the months and years to come.

Madden NFL 25 reviewed by Will Borger on Xbox Series X, also available on PlayStation 5 and PC. There’s a lot to like in Madden NFL 25. The on-field action is the best it’s been thanks to BOOM Tech and the additions from College Football 25. The presentation upgrades are very welcome too, but the modes

Tactical Breach Wizards reviewed by Jarrett Green on PC. Tactical Breach Wizards doesn’t demand knowledge from lost magical tomes to conquer its character-focused missions, each of which is filled with lots of doodads to fiddle with and not a lot of space to do it in.
