Be Missed and Remembered: The Letter from Mayoiga

Latest review: Rob MacIntosh at NookGaming

Jul 8, 2026 | Score 40 | Pre-release Review

“There is something to the heart of the story of Be Missed and Remembered: The Letter from Mayoiga. Its theme of what it means to be remembered and how saddening it is to be forgotten is a compelling emotional core that could have made for something so, so much better than what I got. Instead, it’s a poorly structured and even more poorly edited visual novel that got in its own way of trying to tell that story at every turn, one which I have next to no positives to speak of that don’t carry at least some form of caveat. It makes for an experience I expect I will very soon forget, and I most certainly will not miss my time with.”

Echoes of Aincrad

Latest review: Abdul Saad at Impulsegamer

Jul 10, 2026 | Score 70

“Echoes of Aincrad is a solid albeit middling new entry that adds some enjoyable elements to the franchise. However, many of its gameplay mechanics make the game more frustrating and tedious, ultimately hindering the overall experience.”

Cat Mail Co.

Latest review: Sean "KingOTheCask" Richards at Gamer Social Club

Jul 11, 2026 | Score 65

“Cat Mail Co., while being entertaining for a few hours of gameplay, definitely lost its luster the more hours I sunk into it. Could this have been due to poor initial planning and organization at the early phases of the game? Maybe. But that being said, the further along you get, the harder it becomes to do any kind of overhaul of your organizational processes. Unless you enjoy throwing all the packages into one corner of the warehouse and starting from scratch. If organization and low-risk gameplay is your jam, however, then Cat Mail Co. will be right up your alley!”

EA Sports College Football 27

Latest review: Marcus Lawson at Gamer Social Club

Jul 11, 2026 | Score 80

“EA Sports College Football 27 has the best gameplay hands down. I was so excited during the reveal and the announcement of all the new features. Finally getting hands on and experiencing the new features really made my day. While some things still need work, like we need something better than this current version of ‘‘Mascot Mashup”. I still feel like love was lacking from this year’s iteration and there are so many other ways to make it better.”

Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced

Latest review: Libero Zerini at Videogiocare.it

Jul 10, 2026 | Score 78

“Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is a visually stunning but structurally uneven remake — every improvement it makes seems to introduce a new friction, resulting in a solid pirate adventure that never quite dethrones the original it's remaking.”

Backyard Baseball

Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok

Latest review: Thomas Knight at NookGaming

Jul 10, 2026 | Score 80

“Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok is a rather excellent game as a whole package as long as you’re looking for gameplay over story in your JRPG. That said, the Endless Ragnarok content is only really exciting to heavily invested players, who really want to farm the endgame. The new roguelite mode is certainly a standout feature, but you will need to grind those quests for quite a while before unlocking it in full.”

DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations

Latest review: Raouf Belhamra at Digitale Anime

Jul 12, 2026 | Score 95

“"A True Evolution, Not Just an Expansion" DOOM: The Dark Ages – Revelations succeeds where most expansions fail; it doesn't just add new content, it evolves the very foundations of the game. The Chain Spear system changes the rhythm of combat and brings back the speed and action that players loved in DOOM Eternal without abandoning The Dark Ages identity. There's clever enemy design, secret-filled levels, a strong ending, and exceptional music. Revelations is an excellent expansion that elevates the base game to a whole new level.”

Moonlight Peaks

Latest review: Jenni Lada at Siliconera

Jul 9, 2026 | Score 70

“Moonlight Peaks offers a serviceable farming sim with supernatural elements that offer a little flight of fancy.”

Hyperwired

Latest review: Aaron Price at WayTooManyGames

Jul 12, 2026 | Score 50

“Everything comes back to how limited your ship’s stock feels. You end up paying more attention to your resources than the game itself, and unless you’re playing a survival horror game, your eyes really shouldn’t be glued to the corner of the screen.”

Rhythm Heaven Groove

Latest review: Jake Mounsey at Switchaboo

Jul 12, 2026 | Score 80

“Despite its minor hiccups, Rhythm Paradise Groove is yet another incredible addition to the Rhythm Paradise series that fans will be grooving too for a long time. Just make sure you play it in handheld mode, though, just to be safe.”

Template!! An Angel's Gift

Latest review: Thomas Knight at NookGaming

Jun 26, 2026 | Score 70

“While Template!! An Angel’s Gift (Tenpure!!) fittingly doesn’t really break the mold of the standard romcom visual novels, it’s very competent in what it does. It features a selection of charming heroines, some sweet romantic moments, and plenty of enjoyable slice-of-life moments in a low-drama story. This is backed by some particularly good use of art. There are a few things I feel it could have done better, but if you’re looking for a relaxed romance story, this will make for a good read.”

Star Fox

Latest review: Sam Aberdeen at Nexus Hub

Jul 9, 2026 | Score 75

“Star Fox for Nintendo Switch 2 delivers charm and cheese in a faithful remake that's fun in quick bursts and easily replayable, though some slight changes and its older game design won't appeal to everyone.”

Dead or Alive 6: Last Round

Latest review: Abdul Saad at Impulsegamer

Jul 7, 2026 | Score 62

“Dead or Alive 6, while providing a few features a modern fighting game should have, also disappointingly leaves out many important elements, offers very little new content, and forces returning players to purchase the title again. As such, while the title is a solid new release, it's only recommended to new players who don't mind the missing features.”

Dimhaven - The Lost Source

Latest review: István Szabó at AdventureGames.hu

Jul 7, 2026 | Score 90

“Dimhaven may not have reinvented the wheel, but its genuine sense of adventure never let up for a single moment. That's precisely why it's such a shame that people unfairly overlook it on account of its niche appeal. One thing is certain: anyone who loved Quern definitely won't be disappointed by Dimhaven either.”

Moldwasher

Latest review: Tahmid Mahi at GamesCreed

Jun 26, 2026 | Score 90

“Moldwasher succeeds because it knows exactly what it wants to be. It doesn’t try to become a massive, endless cleaning simulator. Instead, it delivers a tight experience full of satisfying cleaning mechanics, creative tools, charming pixel art, and a steady sense of progression.”

Frostpunk 2: Breach of Trust

Latest review: Derek Johnson at Jump Dash Roll

Jul 3, 2026 | Score 70

“Frostpunk 2: Breach of Trust is brutally unforgiving, but its timely themes and rewarding challenges make it worthwhile.”

Mini Murder Mysteries

Latest review: So Many Games Staff at So Many Games

Jun 23, 2026 | Score 60

“All said, Mini Murder Mysteries is a decent game. All the mysteries were interesting and nice brain ticklers. As an interactive-book-style game, I think it’s a real winner. It’s nice and bite-sized, has just the right sort of noir music in the background, and is overall a competent entry into the detective game genre.”

Sonic Frontiers - Definitive Edition

Latest review: Isaiah Parker at NookGaming

Jul 7, 2026 | Score 70

“​While Sonic Frontiers – Definitive Edition is absolutely a misnomer, it’s a fine way to play the game if you haven’t already. The updates it has received since its initial release in November 2022 make the game worth revisiting, with lots of new content that’s fun to play even if they don’t necessarily fix any of the game’s more foundational problems. There’s a good game to enjoy even with the warts present in Sonic Frontiers, but given the cynical nature of this version’s release, it’s hard not to feel like they should have gone harder in improving it. While I wouldn’t expect every problem to be addressed, things like fixed bugs and technical issues would surely have gone a long way in making a fun game even more easy to enjoy.”

Deer & Boy

Latest review: Chris Penwell at SmashPad

Jul 6, 2026 | Score 60

“Despite issues like an unnecessary maze and out-of-place sci-fi premise, Deer & Boy is an adorable narrative adventure that I would recommend. Some of the puzzles are a bit confusing due to a lack of visual cues, but the puzzle gameplay is rewarding for the most part.”
