Tekken 8

Tekken 8 is worth $24 — the deepest 3D fighter going, despite a player base that scores it below critics.

Split Fiction

A fresh mechanic every ten minutes and a sci-fi/fantasy split worth two playthroughs — the best co-op game Hazelight has made, but there's no solo mode at all.

Doom: The Dark Ages

The shield-saw parry trades Eternal's dash-juggling for something heavier and just as sharp — Revelations alone earns the price, if you can stand the slower pace.

  • Updated 48d ago

Cronos: The New Dawn

Corridor dread and bullet-hoarding done as well as Dead Space did it — worth the price if you can forgive boss fights that belong in a different game.

Battlefield 6

The 64-player infantry flow is the closest thing to BF3 since BF3 — but you die behind cover often enough that it's only worth it on sale.

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

The best Ubisoft release in years — Lost Crown nails 2.5D metroidvania flow with Hollow-Knight comparisons, but Ubisoft canceled the sequel after sales disappointed.

Sword of the Sea

Giant Squid's glide-and-grind traversal is pure flow — a worthy heir to Journey's throne despite the short runtime.

Silent Hill f

Silent Hill comes back swinging in 1960s Japan — Ryukishi07's writing and Yamaoka's score carry it past combat that's still the franchise's weak spot.

Fatekeeper

A gorgeous but incomplete slice — wait for the full release before buying in.
