Lies of P: Overture brings players back into the eerie, Belle Époque-infused streets of Krat, delivering a gripping prequel that expands on the dark lore of the original while honouring its roots. This DLC not only deepens the narrative, but also enriches the combat and world-building in ways both familiar and fresh, and justifies its price tag with a 10+ hour campaign.

The Alters review (PS5)
From the moment you crash-land on an alien world, The Alters casts its spell with a haunting premise: stranded engineer Jan Dolski must pilot a rotating base ringed by dawn’s deadly radiation. To survive, he conjures alternative versions of himself called “Alters” each born from different life decisions.

The story’s emotional resonance – like the emotionally stark wake for Jan’s test subject, Molly – elevates it beyond mere survival mechanics. It captures the existential fog of playing god with yourself, and makes for one of this year’s most memorable games yet. Continue reading “The Alters review (PS5)”

to a T review (PS5)
From the moment you see Teen frozen in their trademark T-pose, to a T immediately stakes its claim as what will probably be one of the most unconventional games this year. It’s the latest effort from Uvula, the studio co-founded by the creative mind behind Katamari Damacy, and the same whimsical design philosophy is evident in every corner of this seaside town. But this isn’t just an elaborate novelty act – the T-shape becomes a vehicle to explore themes of identity, acceptance, and what it means to fit in when you quite literally don’t conform. We played to a T on the PS5. Continue reading “to a T review (PS5)”
