GTFO reviewed on PC by Luke Winkie. Narrated by Ryan McCaffrey. GTFO is an uncompromising take on the Left 4 Dead co-op shooter formula. This is a game best played with three friends who you know for a fact are capable of coordinating together to defeat a horde of horrific, fleshy monstrosities while navigating through

Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker reviewed on PC by Leif Johnson. Also available on PlayStation. Endwalker delivers a powerful, emotional story with some bold choices, but it’s important to understand that you’ll get the most out of it if you’ve been with these characters from the beginning. And with roughly 50 hours of story piled on

Praey for the Gods reviewed by Travis Northup on PlayStation 5. Also available on PC and Xbox. Praey for the Gods falls far short of the classic monster-climbing game it so clearly draws inspiration from. The sluggish climbing and combat controls make even the standout boss fights so consistently frustrating that it’s hard to enjoy

The Gunk reviewed by Tom Marks on PC, also available on Xbox. As the first 3D game from Image & Form Games (best known for games like SteamWorld Dig or SteamWorld Quest series), The Gunk is a simple little platforming adventure full of malicious messes that are plenty of fun to clean up. #IGN #Gaming

Century: Age of Ashes reviewed by Travis Northup on PC. Century: Age of Ashes is a really enjoyable PvP aerial combat game with some excellent game modes, unique character classes, and lots of beautiful, fierce dragons to collect and ride into battle. It could benefit from hoarding more content since its handful of maps can

The Analogue Pocket solves the limitations of Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, and other handhelds of yore, and it does so with a familiar but distinct style you don’t find with emulation-based solutions. It’s the best possible way to enjoy your handheld gaming collection. #IGN #Analogue

Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon is a wonderful spin-off that combines block-falling puzzle and roguelite mechanics in remarkably clever ways, resulting in yet another excellent entry in the Shovel Knight series. Reviewed by Mitchell Saltzman #IGN #ShovelKnight

Reviewed by Tristan Ogilvie on PC. Also available on PlayStation 5. “Terminator: Resistance Annihilation Line tightens its combat to bring a slightly more compelling challenge to its firefights, but fails to inject any new ideas to spark any real life behind its glowing red eyes. It certainly looks great, and mowing down robotic hordes can

Chorus reviewed on PC by Dan Stapleton. Also available on Xbox, PlayStation, and Stadia. Chorus does an excellent job of cutting out the dull parts of space dogfighting, getting right to the flashy fun of blasting through enemy fighters and capital ships with superpowered abilities. Its large and pretty map is filled with fleshed-out side

Halo Infinite Single-Player Campaign reviewed by Ryan McCaffrey on Xbox Series X. Also available on Xbox One and PC. Halo has meant a lot to me over the past 20 years. From first landing on the ring in Halo 1 to the surprise Arbiter arc in Halo 2 to being heartbroken by Halo 5’s abysmal

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun – Aiko’s Choice reviewed by Leana Hafer on PC. Aiko’s Choice is a polished, challenging, and welcome – though a bit short – standalone expansion to the exceptional Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. #IGN #Gaming #ShadowTactics

Ruined King: A League of Legends Story reviewed by Jada Grifin on PlayStation 5. Also available on PlayStation 4, Xbox, PC, and Switch. #IGN #Gaming

Fights in Tight Spaces reviewed by Jarrett Green on PC. Against popular thinking, the slower, methodical pace of Fights in Tight Spaces’ card combat recreates that feeling of systematically dismantling a room full of goons that all the best action movies like Kingsman: The Secret Service present so well. #IGN #Gaming #FightsInTightSpaces

Reviewed by Cam Shea on PC. Also available on PlayStation. “Solar Ash took me a little over seven hours to beat on normal difficulty, and while some of the anomalies and bosses were less entertaining than others, and there were moments of frustration with the controls, this was a world I had a good time

Animal Crossing: New Horizons Happy Home Paradise DLC reviewed on Nintendo Switch by Taylor Lyles. Animal Crossing: New Horizons – Happy Home Paradise is an exceptional piece of post-launch DLC. While a slow burn in terms of what items and facilities you unlock throughout the expansion, Happy Home Paradise offers a lot of creative freedom

Nerf Legends reviewed by Travis Northup on Xbox Series X, also available on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox One. Nerf Legends is a broken, painful slog of an FPS that you shouldn’t even consider playing as a joke. #IGN #Gaming #NerfLegends

Halo Infinite Multiplayer reviewed by Stella Chung on PC. Also available on Xbox. It’s so nice when a game actually lives up to sky-high expectations! Halo Infinite has been one of the most anticipated games out there since it was first announced three years ago, and for its multiplayer component to so fully deliver on

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl reviewed by Rebekah Valentine on Nintendo Switch. Like the themes of its story, Game Freak’s newest Pokemon remakes (developed by ILCA) are solid and enduring – leaning on the past, with all of its triumphs and tripwires. #IGN #Gaming #Pokemon
