This expansion is the best WoW has been on all fronts in many years.

A horror game with fantastic art and writing but a frustrating on-rails structure.

A gorgeous medieval city-builder that feels very early in its Early Access development.

Some good ideas help it to stand out, but they don't let it stand up under its own weight.

A 130-hour space epic with excellent writing and combat, but also a lot of bugs.

Persona 5 Tactica is a big bag of bite-sized Phantom Thieves adventures that keeps the spirit of the series alive and shows that it can work great with a grid-based battle system.

Cities: Skylines 2 is an ambitious sequel that might have bitten off more than it can chew – be prepared to do a lot of terraforming if you don't want your metropolis to look like a nightmare.

An impressively rich Total War campaign centered on the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

A clever, multilayered RTS that skillfully translates so much of what is cool about Dune.

With crunchy, tactical RPG combat, a memorable story with complex characters, highly polished cinematic presentation, and a world that always rewards exploration and creativity, Baldur's Gate 3 is the new high-water mark for CRPGs.

A flexible, challenging, approachable throwback turn-based tactics game in which the only thing that feels truly dated is the humor.

A tense survival horror RTS with a few too many technical bugs.

A smaller episode of the horror franchise that has some chilling new tricks up its sleeve.

Darkest Dungeon 2 is a roguelite sequel that takes a few steps forward and one or two back from the original, but keeps the gloomy but intense spirit alive.

A dizzyingly customizable fantasy 4X made mightier by a legacy that follows you across campaigns.
