    MiSide is a hybrid of a visual novel and a quest with a cute anime girl as the key character. The game masterfully juggles emotions — at different times it evokes affection, pity, slight sadness and even genuine horror. And the ending that you get during the first playthrough can be downright shocking. However, this is far from the only project that combines horror and feminine charm. You will find other examples in our article.

    Explaining the phenomenon of Monster Hunter to those who have never played the series can be quite challenging. Trailers and gameplay demonstrations might even deter some potential fans rather than attract them — someone might see a boss fight lasting a whole hour and wonder how that could possibly be fun. That’s exactly why, with the upcoming release of Monster Hunter Wilds, it’s worth breaking down the secret formula of the series and explaining why this game and its predecessors deserve the attention of as many gamers as possible.

    Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is the sequel to one of the most unique and ambitious role-playing games of recent years. The first part, released in 2018, captivated everyone with its realism, historical accuracy, and unusual approach to the genre. Seven years later, Warhorse Studios, led by Daniel Vávra, returns with a sequel that not only retains the spirit of the original but also amplifies all its strengths. From the first moments, the project makes it clear that it's bigger, cooler, more expensive, and more thought-out than the first part. We were completely thrilled by the first hours spent in medieval Bohemia, and now we are eager to share our quick impressions with you.

    On January 31, new versions of the first The Sims and its sequel were released. Even if we put nostalgia aside, both games are extremely important to fans of the franchise: for example, the very first installment is still considered one of the most challenging in the series, so some players return to it for the sake of a real challenge. The chance to play the updated classics should have been a reason for the community to celebrate, but unfortunately, the re-releases were met with a rather cold reception, to put it mildly. Here’s what gamers were hoping for — and what they ended up getting.

    Finally! Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, the second part of Square Enix's ambitious remake trilogy, has made its way to PC a year later, allowing players to fully enjoy one of the best Japanese role-playing games without technical limitations and blurred images. We deliberately chose not to review the original version for PlayStation 5 in 2024 to avoid spoiling the experience (and eyesight) and to get the most enjoyment from the most technologically advanced PC port of one of last year's best games. In this review, we will not only examine the plot and gameplay but also evaluate the graphics and performance of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on both platforms, helping you decide which version to pay attention to.

    Yesterday, EA revealed the first gameplay footage of the upcoming Battlefield. "Revealed" might be a bit of an overstatement, considering we got less than 10 seconds of chaotically spliced scenes. While there's not much to analyze yet, the debut of the new Battlefield is a perfect opportunity to compile the key features fans have been longing for over the years.

    Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is a continuation of one of the most successful film series about a video game hero—the blue, super-fast hedgehog Sonic.

    Yesterday, Konami boasted about the sales of the Silent Hill 2 remake and thanked gamers for their support. The fact that the publisher is so eager to share these numbers is already an important indicator of how satisfied the Japanese company is with the results. However, a significant number of gamers online have panicked. How come — only 2 million copies? Is the franchise doomed? Their concerns are understandable: in the case of AAA games, such sales figures do not always cover costs. But let’s break it down — should we really worry about the future of Silent Hill?

    Games based on real events are released less frequently than historical films or books. The reason is clear: with this approach, developers are forced to abandon interesting gameplay mechanics, such as using magic or fighting dragons. Meanwhile, in early February 2025, we will see two projects at once that are related to history — Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and Sid Meier's Civilization 7. Moreover, strategies can convey the features of eras not only externally, but also through gameplay. This is the topic of our article.

    It can be assumed that the editor-in-chief of a gaming media plays games day and night, goes through all the new releases from cover to cover, and juggles gamepads like a magician. But the reality is more prosaic. The head of any major media is, first and foremost, sorry for the repetition, a leader: an editor, team lead, process organizer, a public and responsible figure. Therefore, the selection of games must be approached with special care to invest time only in truly worthy—or significant in terms of gaming history and industry (!) — projects. In this article, I will share my list of the best games of 2024.
