BioShock Infinite

Strong, story-driven narrative

A first-person shooter set in the floating city of Columbia, mixing fast combat with Vigors and skyline rails with a mind-bending tale of alternate realities. Companion Elizabeth and the stunning finale make it a standout narrative experience.

Atomic Heart

Dark, serious atmosphere

A first-person shooter set in a retro-futuristic Soviet utopia where the robots have turned on their makers. It mixes punchy melee and gunplay, glove-powered abilities, puzzle-filled test facilities and bizarre humor with a striking art direction.

Possessor(s)

Dark, serious atmosphere

A fast, hand-drawn Metroidvania with combat inspired by platform fighters. As Luca and her uncooperative demon counterpart Rehm, you explore a ruined, flooded city full of interconnected paths.

Luna Abyss

Strong, story-driven narrative

A single-player, story-driven sci-fi action-adventure that mixes fluid platforming with bullet-hell combat. You follow Fawkes, a prisoner on Luna, caught between a cryptic prophecy and a prison sentence.

Mio: Memories in Orbit

Lavish presentation

A gorgeous painterly 2.5D metroidvania where you guide the little robot Mio through a vast decaying spaceship, unlocking grapple, glide and climbing abilities and fighting rogue machines in agile aerial combat. A modifier slot system lets you tune your build, while losing currency on death keeps the tension up.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor

Lavish presentation

Cal Kestis returns with precise, parry-driven lightsaber combat across multiple stances and sprawling, interconnected planets packed with secrets and traversal challenges. A cinematic Star Wars tale about loss and perseverance under the Empire's shadow.

Nine Sols

Challenging difficulty

A hand-drawn 2D Metroidvania set in a Taoist-flavored sci-fi world, with combat built almost entirely around precise deflecting and counterattacks. Revenge, mythology and stylish boss fights drive the journey.
