Outlast 2 Review

Outlast 2's scripted chases can grow frustrating, but its gripping atmosphere and unnerving sound design deliver unparalleled tension.

Bulletstorm: Full Clip Edition Review

Only six years have passed since the wildly inventive Bulletstorm originally released, which may be why this update looks so good and plays so smoothly.

Fair

Mass Effect: Andromeda Review

Andromeda's combat soars but its storytelling sputters, making the series' first venture into uncharted space a shaky but occasionally satisfying new adventure.

Psychonauts In The Rhombus Of Ruin Review

Our favorite psychic secret agents return, trading platforming for puzzles and flat displays for a VR headset. The results are sweet but far too short.

Great

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard Review

Despite dragging in spots, Resident Evil 7's house of horrors recaptures the tension that first made the series a household name.

Good

Dead Rising 4 Review

Dead Rising's core combat remains simplistic, but the expanded open world, compelling central mystery, and added combo weapons refresh the formula enough for some light, bloody fun.

Great

Overcooked Review

If you're looking for rewarding, high-pressure couch co-op, it's hard to beat Overcooked's wild yet accessible culinary juggling act.

Great

Dishonored 2 Review

Dishonored's brand of creative stealth-action mayhem returns with excellent new weapons, powers, and gameplay options that overshadow a few late-game letdowns.

Superb

Civilization 6 Review

The series that cemented the 4X strategy formula continues to stand the test of time with a stellar entry that adds richness and depth in unexpected places.

Fair

Mafia 3 Review

Though Mafia III's storytelling is exceptional in every way, it's not quite strong enough to compensate for dated gameplay, repetitive missions, and technical issues.

Good

Battlezone VR Review

The arcade classic returns, bringing challenging, cooperative tank combat into modern virtual reality. The results are flawed but ultimately still fun.

The Tomorrow Children Review

Resource gathering and city building have never been more tedious.

Superb

Abzu Review

Abzu is deeply, transcendentally beautiful--not just visually splendid, but emotionally evocative. Without question, it is this year's Journey.

Song of the Deep Review

Though its patience-testing puzzles hit a few sour notes, Song of the Deep still delivers a rich, imaginative undersea adventure.

Good

The Division: Underground Expansion Review

With its customizable missions and randomly generated areas, Underground's Operations breathe new life into an ailing game.

Good

Mirror's Edge Catalyst Review

Catalyst's combat stumbles, but the fluid freerunning and enticing open-world challenges overshadow most of its shortcomings.

5

Mediocre

Homefront: The Revolution Review

Despite its ambitious premise, Homefront's efforts to reclaim Philadelphia are sabotaged by technical issues, faulty mechanics, and predictable storytelling.

Good

Battleborn Review

Gearbox Software's first major IP since Borderlands borrows that series' shooting but confuses the proceedings with an overwhelming array of ideas. Can 25 heroes save the day?

Samorost 3 Review

The studio behind imaginative indie hits Machinarium and Botanicula debuts its most ambitious game yet: a beautiful yet simplistic point-and-click adventure.

8

Great

Tom Clancy's The Division Review

Despite oddly overpowered enemies and repetitive level grinding, The Division succeeds thanks to its rich world, strong campaign, and impressive online functionality.

7

Good

Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 Review

A more complete, more refined version of the already stellar original, though arduous progression and empty solo missions spoil some of the fun.

8

Great

Dying Light: The Following Review

Dying Light's latest DLC supplements the full game's first-person parkour with customizable dirt buggies, drastically different environments, and a conspiracy-driven mystery.

7

Good

Firewatch Review

Though its plot doesn't fully pay off, Firewatch gives you a thorough, thoughtful insight into the formation of a meaningful relationship.

Good

Amplitude Review

The rhythm game that put Harmonix on the map returns with spot-on mechanics and a brand new setlist that can't quite compete with the original.

Rainbow Six Siege Review (2015)

With its destructible environments, diverse Operators, and distinctive attackers-vs-defenders setup, Ubisoft's multiplayer-focused shooter offers something rare among modern FPS games: tactical depth.

Fair

The Crew: Wild Run Edition Review

The Wild Run expansion improves Ubisoft's lackluster "carPG" The Crew in a number of ways but can't quite redeem the entire experience.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash Review

After more than a decade of handheld titles and digital re-releases, Mario Tennis finally returns to consoles with Mega Mushrooms, online multiplayer, and a disappointing lack of content.
