Borderlands 4 brings the Borderlands franchise back to a more grounded, serious and yet quirky fun baseline we expect from the franchise. Bringing better gun-play, insane build-crafting and a ton of quality of life upgrades. But underlining a terribly good game is the bad performance that has an impact on all platforms, yet it was […]

Kirby has always been Nintendo’s most cheerful enigma. A pink puffball who can inhale almost anything and turn it into power. With Kirby and the Forgotten Land, the series made the leap into fully 3D platforming, earning praise for its charm, creativity, and approachability. Now with Star-Crossed World, the pink hero returns in a new […]

Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most pleasant surprises of the PlayStation 4 era. Developed by Sucker Punch, the studio behind cult classic Sly Cooper and Infamous series, Ghost of Tsushima was a bold new direction for them.  Set in the backdrop of the 13th-century Mongol invasion of the Japanese island of Tsushima, the […]

It’s been a long time since Sega’s ninja hero, Joe Musashi, graced our screens. After years in hiding, Shinobi: Art of Vengeance finally pulls the franchise back into the spotlight. Developed by Lizardcube, this 2025 revival promises fast combat, stylish visuals, and a proper modern twist on a classic series.  What we have here is a brilliant revival […]

I like supporting small studios and their ideas mainly because they come up with unique ideas, weird worlds, and new gameplay mechanics. Rogue Factor, the company behind Hell Is Us, made some interesting choices both in the art and the overall structure of the game, but it also came with a cost that, in my […]

It may have been months since my last review for BGeek, but I couldn’t help but smile when Mike suggested I try Lost Soul Aside for this review. Lost Soul Aside is a third-person action/adventure title from Chinese developer Ultizero Games, developed with the help of the PlayStation China Hero program, an initiative by Sony […]

Slick wall-runs and clear combat define The Rogue Prince of Persia, a stylish rogue-lite that plays great but feels light on long-term depth.

Following the success of their Silent Hill 2 remake, Bloober Team gained significant trust and confidence from the gaming community. While their previous titles, like The Medium or the Blair Witch, were divisive, the Silent Hill 2 remake was universally accepted as a great game. Cronos: The New Dawn development began in 2021 and was […]

When two small but very talented studios combined their skills, PEAK was created. Aggro Crab is the studio behind Another Crab’s Treasure, a well-made soulslike indie game with a unique style that unfortunately did not make the impact the studio wanted. They partnered with Landfall, which is famous for making physics games, and recently, the […]

For decades, video games have cast us as the heroic saviour: the one who swings the sword, defeats the monsters, and saves the realm. Be My Horde asks a far more delicious question: what if you were the nightmare everyone else feared? What if, instead of destroying the undead, you were the necromancer raising them? […]

Mafia: The Old Country delivers atmosphere and acting, with conservative design and little replay value.

We attended Gamescom 2025 with our own tickets and money. This is not a sponsored article, some assets are provided by our dear partners. Gamescom 2025 has come and gone and left us with more games on our wishlist that we will ever be able to play. And of course, some pretty nice goodies to […]

With the release of the Nintendo Switch 2, early adopters are still holding their breath for the first major wave of exclusive games coming to their console. With releases like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, as well as a slew of remasters, including both The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and […]

Tamagotchi, the virtual pet brand that once defined a generation of handheld digital toys, has taken various forms over the decades, from keychains to mobile apps to handheld RPGs. With Tamagotchi Plaza, Bandai Namco has brought that cheerful digital pet universe to the Nintendo Switch 2. This time, however, you’re not raising a Tamagotchi. Instead, […]

The Necromancer’s Tale, developed by Psychic Software, is a captivating narrative-driven role-playing game where players unravel the mystery of the protagonist’s father’s death in the fictional city of Marn. Initially uncertain about the game’s appeal, I found it increasingly compelling, making it difficult to put down for a review. This hidden gem deserves attention for […]

Few modern games have had as lasting an impact as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. As a follow-up to one of the most critically celebrated titles in history (Breath of the Wild), it had the burden of matching greatness while pushing boundaries even further. Now, with the release of its upgraded edition […]

Few modern history games have left a mark as deep as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. When it first launched in 2017, it redefined what open-world exploration could feel like, encouraging curiosity, experimentation, and freedom in a way few titles dared to attempt. Its influence splashed across the industry, and it quickly […]

With the Shin Megami Tensei series having so many spin-offs, you’d be forgiven for not remembering Raidou Kuzunoha. The young detective/devil summoner had two great games on the PlayStation 2 before being forgotten by Atlus. However, he enjoyed his fair share of cameo appearances in other SMT titles, with fans clamouring for a new Raidou […]

Death Stranding has always been a polarising game that divided Hideo Kojima’s fanbase. Players who loved Metal Gear Solid were ready for ‘the next big thing’ from their favourite game director, only to be met with something unexpected in 2019.  The original Death Stranding was a surprising breath of fresh air from an industry oversaturated […]

The Mario Kart series has seen its fair share of games over the years. With Mario Kart 8 enjoying a healthy life on the Nintendo Switch, fans were hoping for the series to evolve alongside their console. And with the Nintendo Switch 2 now finally here, Mario Kart World stands as the lone first-party Nintendo […]

With over 152 million units sold worldwide, the Nintendo Switch has had a wonderful lifecycle. With thousands of games available for every type of gamer, the question on everyone’s mind was what the next-gen Nintendo console would look like.  Today, on June 5th 2025, we have our answer in the form of the Nintendo Switch […]

In Blades of Fire, MercurySteam crafts a compelling action RPG that melds intense combat, intricate weapon forging, and a richly woven narrative. Set in a realm where steel has been cursed into stone by the tyrannical Queen Nerea, players step into the boots of Aran de Lira, the last warrior capable of wielding true steel. […]

When Days Gone originally launched on PS4 back in 2019, I was among those who found it hard to connect with Bend Studio’s vision. After spending roughly three hours riding through Oregon’s post-apocalyptic wilderness, I walked away disappointed. The dull mission design, weak storytelling, and overwhelming technical issues made the journey with Deacon St. John […]

Onimusha is a series dating back to 2001. Its first title, Onimusha: Warlords, was a spiritual spin-off to Resident Evil, featuring fixed camera angles, prerendered 2D backgrounds, and a horror story set in 16th-century Japan. It truly was one of a kind when it came out and instantly became popular, ensuring that Capcom had another […]
