GSY Review PS5 Xbox Series X PC

The release of 007 First Light this week is a bit of a milestone for all the reasons we mention in the very first paragraph of this new in-house review, but for us, it’s above all the immense satisfaction of having been able to finish the adventure just in time to share our detailed impressions with you. It was a real marathon that we don’t regret at all, even though it was intense. So without further ado, we invite you to discover our verdict on James Bond’s return to video games, knowing that we’ve taken great care to reveal almost nothing about what awaits you.

Following the excellent Disco Elysium, ZA/UM is back – or at least part of the original team – to bring us ZERO PARADES: For Dead Spies. Here’s the first hour of the game in its PC version.

Bitter is a desert planet riddled with the refuse left behind by an interstellar war. 45 years ago, the war suddenly ended when all of the spaceships crashed onto Bitter for reasons unknown. Now, a young salvager named Lukida hopes to escape this planet, but a sudden attack by a giant robot sets events into motion that will change her life. Starbites is an RPG developed by Ikinagames, and we’ve captured a video showing the first 40 minutes of the game.

007 First Light is set to release in two days, but while you have to wait a bit more to find out our final verdict tomorrow afternoon, we’re pleased to share the first thirteen minutes of the adventure with you. IO Interactive released this new video to build anticipation for the launch, showcasing all the work that went into proving the studio is fully capable of producing carefully staged, scripted experiences. We're also sharing the game's launch trailer that we failed to show you before, but stay away from it if you don't want to see too much of what awaits you.

We don't know about you guys but we never felt attracted to Bubsy and to us, it's always been a pretty average franchise at best. The third game is even pretty infamous because of its horrendous playability due to bad camera angles among other things. Needless to say we had no interest in the (bad) 2017 and 2018 attempts to revive the series. Bubsy 4D is different though, as the studio behind it is a competent one when it comes to old school 3D platformers. They indeed released Demon Tides earlier this year (and Demon Turf before that) and these are game that have received a positive welcome by the players. It is no surprise then to see similarities in terms of gameplay mechanics between the studio's previous games and this new Bubsy game. As for us, we stand our ground, we still don't like the character and the world he evolves in, but if you like the genre and you don't mind the art style and (potentially annoying) humor, you might want to check it out, provided you don't mind it being short (unless you aim for the 100% completion challenge).

LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight will officially be released in two days but those who have purchased the Deluxe Edition can already play the game. As we were sent a PC code yesterday, here is a long video showing the full introduction and the beginning of the first chapter of this new title focused on the Dark Knight. As you'll see, the game looks very good overall, with pretty detailed textures, but we have spotted a bunch of optimisation issues that will hopefully be addressed soon (some quick frame drops in one gameplay sequence and a few micro-freezes in some cutscenes or when driving the Batmobile in Gotham). As for the rest, fans of the Arkham series will be delighted to see that this installment retains much of the series’ signature style (combat, stealth, gadgets), which comes as no surprise given that Rocksteady was involved in the game’s development.

MotoGP 26 is available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, and PC via Steam, the Microsoft Store and the Epic Games Store, and we’ve recorded a video on the Jerez circuit.

After Dead as Disco, here's a very different atmosphere, The Caribou Trail plunges us into the horrors of World War I through the eyes of a young Canadian soldier from Newfoundland and two of his friends. This title from the Montreal studio Unreliable Narrators is a narrative game with a fairly minimalist visual style, yet it proves to be artistically very successful, and it offers voice acting in both English and French Canadian. We get a glimpse into the soldiers’ daily lives outside of combat and on missions, along with their doubts and fears, of course. The events depicted here are inspired by real-life events, and from what little we’ve seen, the whole experience is quite engaging despite gameplay mechanics that are fairly simplistic overall. We particularly appreciate the little historical tidbits that accompany the various collectible items. We’ll let you enjoy the first forty-eight minutes of the adventure in its PC version, while we wait for the PS5 release on July 7.

As surprising as it may seem, not all games released in Early Access are roguelikes or survival games; there are also a few original propositions, like Dead as Disco. As its name doesn’t necessarily suggest, this title is a musical beat ’em up where the main character fights to the beat of the songs playing in the background, set in environments that are as strange as they are colorful. The game world is clearly crazy in the good sense of the term, the musical styles are varied, and the polished animations and combat system—which is reminiscent of the Batman Arkham series—are easy to pick up. That doesn’t mean the challenge isn’t there, though, and to make it through the few levels available in this Early Access release, you’ll need a bit of training and practice. We invite you to check it all out in our 4K gameplay video.
