Text: Sam Bishop
Dead or Alive 6
"Time has moved on and the fighting genre has evolved, but Dead or Alive hasn't."

Jonas Mäki

Text: Mike Holmes
Stellaris: Console Edition
"This is not your typical console strategy experience, rather it's something you can really sink your teeth into."

Text: Kieran Harris
Onimusha: Warlords
"The story, the crisper look, and the gameplay will fill you full of nostalgia."
Text: Roy Woodhouse
DayZ
"While fun is there to be had and DayZ is still able to offer up uniquely intense flashes of quality, it's not enough to make this an essential survival experience in 2019."
Text: Mike Holmes

Text: Xavi Mogrovejo

Override: Mech City Brawl
"We came away feeling refreshed at what it had to offer, despite the moment-to-moment gameplay having its flaws."

"It's a lovely game with plenty to do, a well varied and well-designed world, and an equally varied enemy roster, but there are some issues."
Text: Lisa Dahlgren
