PowerUp!'s Reviews
You may never stop playing Forza Horizon 5. And you won't want to.
At the end of the day, Far Cry 6 successfully conjures the alluring tropical beauty of FC3's sandbox, FC4's verticality and mountaineering, along with the weirdo weaponry of New Dawn.
Deathloop is never anything less than absolute edge-of-your-seat gaming
Life is Strange: True Colours is the rare example of a game with both style and substance where both are equally important and neither falters.
Psychonauts 2 is a masterpiece of game design, narrative and subtle, yet powerful storytelling. It is a must-play.
Ghost if Tsushima Director's Cut isn't as revolutionary as its invasion-thwarting subject matter, but it's still a damn nice slice of samurai escapism. If nothing else, Sucker Punch has secured a solid new-gen beachhead to (hopefully) launch a multi-sequel assault.
It’s a masterclass in storytelling and a great first release for Modern Storyteller.
Sniper Elite VR misfires almost as much as it bullseyes
Death’s Door is a game that prepares you for the end, relishing in the journey all the same.
For all it’s charm and mechanical depth, Wings of Ruin only just manages to fly.

Biomutant is a statement of intent, a deliberate step away from the excess of old and toward a genuinely exciting reinvigoration of the genre.
Resident Evil Village is a modern-day horror classic. While it doesn’t quite reach the heights set by Resident Evil 4 or, the best-in-the-series, Resident Evil 2, Village is a game worthy of the Resident Evil moniker
Returnal makes an important, evolutionary (house)marque on the arcade shooter landscape.
Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury is a showcase of the game design mastery which has made Nintendo the best in the business.
Little Nightmares 2 is a superb puzzle-platformer that'll worm its way into your brain and stay there.
Persona 5 Strikers is my favourite Musou crossover and the first one to truly feel like the guest franchise first and Warriors second.
Olija is a great action platformer and one that throws back to the best of those which have come before.
Not for the faint of heart, nor those susceptible to trauma, The Medium is an intensely disturbing masterclass in storytelling, dripping with atmosphere and loaded with enough dread to make you question the very nature of your existence when you're finished with it.
