Darkest Dungeon 2 has the makings of a great GOTY nominee for next year (or the next depending on its development schedule).

I...
In the future, robots will take over the world, and humanity is given the not-so-happy task of killing every single one of them. And in a roguelike fashion. In this wacky future of Synthetik 2, you play as a soldier fighting his/her way to the top to stop the Heart of Armageddon that's protected by an armada of robots and soldier bots ready to t...
Platforms: Xbox One, Xbox Series, PS4, PS5, PC Genre: Open world action-adventure times a hundred The last we heard of Volition's Saints Row series, it ended with a huge bang with part IV and its Gatt Out Of Hell expansion, which basically pushed the envelope in terms of action-adventure open-world sandbox craziness.

Platforms: Android, iOS Genre: Open-World Action RPG There is perhaps no better time for a game like Marvel Future Revolution to release than now.

Platform: PC Genre: Isometric 70s sci-fi RPG I would say that I miss isometric CRPGs, but the Wasteland trilogy of games and the Pillars of Eternity entries in the past few years sort out those jollies.

Skateboarding games, while fun, have two main issues: one - it can be tough for newbies from the get-go. Two: the places you skate in seem pretty barren. Enter OlliOlli World, a super-bright and cheery (albeit weird) game where you pull off skateboarding tricks for points on a 2D plane. Simple gameplay and controls, but its course design and cha...

Platform(s): PC Genre: Turn-Based RPG, Creature Collector, Adventure, Indie Many long-time Pokémon fans (including me) have fallen off the franchise's bandwagon ever since it upgraded to full 3D and left behind its classic elements.

Platform: PC Genre: 90s JRPG throwback Remember Quintet, the JRPG group that made classics like Illusion of Gaia and Terranigma?
