Dynasty Warriors 3 Complete Edition Remastered offers a revitalised version of one of the series’ finest moments, with enhanced visuals and some meaningful improvements to combat and systems. All in all, this is a robust upgrade and one well worth exploring.

Developer Team Aces has delivered another wonderfully intuitive and entertaining arcade aerial combat game in Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve, one that delivers on almost all fronts.

Rivage is an absorbing and immensely gratifying puzzle game, entirely devoid of luxuries like hand-holding, hints and tips, and it's all the better for it. However, fiddly controls and some annoyingly obtuse puzzles hold it back from greatness.

Control Resonant is a game that shouldn't work, but absolutely does. It's a sequel that shifts genres, protagonists and setting, yet still retains the original's unique charm and sense of the surreal. Control Resonant is a truly excellent sequel.

A meaningful step in the right direction, EA Sports FC 27 implements some good, noticeable tweaks on the pitch, while adding a fun new social space in The Grounds. This is the best the series has been in a fair while.

Delivering a lovely plasticky dose of knockabout arcade racing fun, Hot Wheels Infinite Rush is a nice thing to dip into, but it’s unlikely to be something you return to loads, unless your kids steal the controller.

Star Wars: Zero Company is a proper Star Wars experience, wrapped in a welcoming XCOM skin. It’s cinematic, it’s tactically astute, and more importantly, it’s a barrel of fun. Were it not for a few niggling issues, this would surely have scored much higher.

The Blood of Dawnwalker has rich blood running through its veins, delivering an RPG worthy of Rebel Wolves’ Witcher pedigree, furnished with superb combat, compelling systems, and an engaging story.

Onimusha: Way of the is a handsome revival, with excellent combat, a dull story, and baggy structure.

As far as spin-offs go, Resonance is one of the more impressive. The action focus not only dramatically changes the feel of the experience, but Asobo’s shift to awe and wonder with its assortment of environmental puzzles is a cut above most in the genre.
