A lightweight trio of flying, flight training and skydiving challenges that won't satisfy serious simulation fans, but offers enough accessible arcade fun to make taking to the skies an enjoyable short session.

NHL 27 may not reinvent EA’s long-running hockey formula, but it makes a convincing case for a return to the rink. With authentic arena atmospheres, refreshed commentary, smarter team identities and the welcome return of Connected Franchise, this is a hockey experience that feels bigger and more personal.

A wonderfully weird mix of wrestling nostalgia and eccentric modern mayhem, WWE 2K26's Season 5 brings Danhausen, Bam Bam Bigelow, Brie Bella and Pagano together for a surprisingly entertaining Premium Pass experience.

Fit Beat Combat delivers an energetic VR workout that gets your body moving, but lightweight punch feedback and a lack of polish keep this promising fitness brawler from landing a knockout punch.

TORO 2 captures some of the visual theatre of the bullring, but its repetitive timing mechanics and dated presentation prevent the experience from reaching the level of authenticity and excitement its subject deserves.

CarX Street: Midnight Rush captures the late-night side of car culture with a stylish new Sunset Bay district, a dedicated drag-racing club, and three highly tunable new cars. It may lack the variety of more technical racing content, but its neon-soaked atmosphere and focus on tuning, meets, and straight-line speed make it a welcome addition for street-racing fans.

Jaleco Sports: Faceoffs proves that great sports games do not always need modern presentation or mountains of content. With three very different retro sporting experiences, useful modern features and plenty of multiplayer potential, this is a charming collection that keeps Jaleco's old-school sporting spirit alive.

NBA 2K27 delivers some of the best basketball the series has produced, with smarter defence, superb ProPLAY animations and enough depth to keep both casual players and diehard NBA fans coming back. MyCAREER, The City, MyTEAM and MyNBA remain enormous experiences in their own right, although the ever-present pressure to spend VC still leaves a sour taste.

Hoversteppers takes the spirit of classic arcade skating games and sends it airborne. Its floaty anti-gravity physics take some getting used to, but once the movement clicks, the combination of tricks, exploration, collectables and high-score chasing becomes surprisingly addictive.
