Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced – PS5 Review

After numerous rumours, leaks, and social media hoaxes about its cancellation, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is here! Possibly the worst-kept secret in gaming, the remake of the beloved 2013 swashbuckling, stabby adventure has arrived on modern platforms. Developed by Ubisoft Singapore, this ground-up remake looks to recapture gamers all over again with Available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, exactly how much of Black Flag has changed? And, is it worth revisiting for gamers who have already played the original? Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: My Favourite Sea Shanty Simulator Narratively, the main plot remains largely unchanged. Privateer Edward Kenway kills an assassin and assumes his identity, leading to one of the series' best character arcs. Edward is...

Cursed Companions – PC Preview

Cursed Companions is an Action, Adventure, Co-op game from the minds at Crimson Forge Studios. It's actually a unique take on the concept that we get from games like R.E.P.O, Yap-Yap, and Lethal Company. The difference between Cursed Companions is that after meeting the quota, we have to fight a boss. But I'll cover more of them in the next section. LONG LIVE THE QUEEN AND THE TOWER OF WAFFLES SHE RESIGNS IN! Gameplay Cursed Companions has you playing for what I'm dubbing Kidney Beans. These Kidney Beans are in the service of the Queen, who must collect cursed treasures. However, there is one thing you must always keep to yourself if you don't trust your friends, and that's your "cursed word". This task will either break your brain or have you meet your maker faster if it's a word you...

LumenTale: Memories of Trey PC Review

LumenTale: Memories of Trey is an Action, Adventure, RPG from Beehive Studios with assistance from Team17. The game uses a turn-based combat system similar to other such games. However there's a catch, you'll get to have a team of four Animon fighting at the same time! But, there are a few other twists in this game that really have you strategizing. Yet, I did try to do some online battles to no avail. Now let's fling out Holoken and start the show! What do you mean I can't do Yo-yo tricks when using the Holoken! I wanted to do an around the world trick before catching one! Gameplay LumenTale: Memories of Trey has you start off with a quiz that I still don't know what it was for. Although after a few minutes of answering those questions, you wake up as Trey. An android that was discov...

Voidling Bound PC Review

Voiding Bound is an Action, Adventure, RPG made in-house by Hatchery Games. This game brings in what feels like Pokémon. If you can play as them and roam around with the mutations that each species that the game has. With the area being a playground holding secrets and no boundaries unless gravity happens. Let's collect the mutagens and start this review! With the amount of eggs I'm collecting, I might as well start a egg farm. Gameplay Voiding Bound has us playing as the Wrangler. A person in a crew of 5 people roaming the galaxies to stop the spread of the infection that's spreading among many other planets in the galaxy. However, the only things immune to the Legion's parasites are voidlings. Furthermore, these creatures that we're able to take and link up with to take over and att...

Hollow Body – PS5 Review

The third-person, survival horror game Hollowbody, is making its debut on the console stores. I'll be checking out the PS5 version for you. I don't know what to expect, besides the game being tagged as short, and tech-noir. We do get the option to play either fixed camera or modern third person. For this review I went with modern. If you are looking to pick up Hollowbody, it's currently priced at £12.99 on the PSN Store, or £11.04 with a PS+ subscriber discount until June 5th. I am trying to find Sasha. Gameplay We take control of Mica, a woman who is on the search for her friend Sasha, who went missing. Hollowbody is pretty short, so I won't say much of the story. Most of the gameplay is Mica walking around areas and stumbling across documents or items. Items that you will use elsewh...

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core – PC Early Access Preview

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core is the latest FPS adventure deep into Ghost Ship Game's mining planet of Hoxxes. In this roguelite structure, you're sent as a Reclaimer to investigate mining operations deep within the planet. With nothing but a pick in your hand, join up with up to three other players and earn upgrades and gear enhancements the deeper you go. It is available now in early access on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation. Not the Usual Mining Adventure in Rogue Core I'm still a big fan of Deep Rock Galactic. Like many games, I haven't spent as much time in it as I would have liked. But my ears perked up when I caught wind of a new entry to the IP. This was especially the case once I found out it was going to be a roguelite too! Check out my thoughts on the state of the latest entry bel...

Directive 8020 – PS5 Review

In space, no one can hear you scream. That may be for the best when it comes to the horrors inside Directive 8020. Developed by Supermassive Games, the game was released on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on the 12th May 2026. Supermassive know their cinematic horror, so prepare for the return of branching choices, gruesome deaths and Hollywood faces. The Standard Edition costs £39.99. The Digital Deluxe Edition increases the price to £49.99. So does it get off to an astronomical start, or is it just a waste of space? A Fear Orbit Experience Directive 8020 feels like an unholy union of Alien and The Thing. A cramped spaceship? Check. A hostile shape-shifting threat? Also check. Growing paranoia making every crewmate feel suspicious? Triple check. The setup captures the suffocating tensi...

Vultures – Scavengers of Death – PC Review

What if you took the classic Resident Evil games, and turned them into a tactical turn-based game. It looks like you'd create Vultures - Scavengers of Death!. Or that's what the game looks like to me. If you want something a little different to other survival horror, then why not pick it up on Steam for £14.99. They also have a supporter pack available that gives you two outfits, one for each character. The soundtrack and art book, all for an extra £4.29.
