NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: We here at GameTyrant have been absolutely bombarded with so many products and games this year already. We will be rolling out select quick reviews to let our audience know about products, games, and DLC that may have slipped under their radar. We appreciate the amazing support from all publishers and developers out there!
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II - Mysteria Ecclesiae DLC
Available Now
I love quality games with studios who are passionate on their focus to detail. This final DLC proves once again that more Kingdom Come is never, ever a bad thing. Warhorse Studios just keeps killing it with these adventures out of the monastery with their impeccable dialogue, gorgeous medieval landscapes, and gloriously questionable life choices. This DLC gives us more of what we crave: immersive quests, unforgettable characters, and enough church intrigue to make even the Pope raise an eyebrow. It’s proof that Warhorse remains one of the best studios in the game when it comes to authentic chaos, chainmail, and charm.
Not all builds are viable in this DLC but regardless, this is a no brainer purchase for fans. If you haven’t dove into the Kingdom Come universe, you are missing one of the best gaming experiences out there and it should not be missed by anyone.
Neon Inferno
November 20th
This is what we be talkin’ about! Neon Inferno is pure, unfiltered retro adrenaline which results in the perfect cocktail of Contra and Wild Guns that hits you right in the nostalgia glands. The pixel graphics and animations are so good you’ll swear your CRT just came back from the dead. Gunplay? Chef’s kiss. It’s frantic, flashy, and loud in all the right ways basically, if 1990s arcade cabinets could dream, this is what they’d see.
Maybe you’ve caught wind of this game, maybe you haven’t. Either way, you need to buy it. It’s just that good and bucks the trend of lame pixel graphic wannabes. This is the real deal for retro shooters.
Verho - Curse of Faces
Available Now
Well, this came out of nowhere. Verho is a moody, melancholic love letter to King’s Field that actually manages to pull it off and that’s no small feat. It’s dark, weird, and occasionally janky in the best way possible. The world oozes atmosphere, the enemies are ugly in a charmingly PS1 way, and somehow it all just works. For fans of retro dungeon crawlers who like their nostalgia served with a modern twist (and a side of mild despair), Verho delivers.
If you can handle the PS1 style graphics, you are in for a hidden gem treat.
Dark Quest 4
Available Now
Another hidden gem! Dark Quest 4 is the kind of hidden gem that sneaks up, whacks you over the head with its difficulty, and then makes you laugh about it. It’s funny, it’s brutal, it’s absurdly charming and you’ll curse the dice one minute and cheer your unlikely victory the next. Every little dungeon feels like a mix of chaos, luck, and dark humor, and you’ll love every second of it (even while yelling at it).
I love hidden gems. This is one of them.
Sacred 2 Remastered
Available Now
Oh man, I love this game and wanted so much more for the remaster! This release reminds us that the original was delightfully quirky and still deserves your time but maybe not your money again. Sure, the UI improvements and modern compatibility are welcome, but stripping out enhanced NVIDIA PhysX effects and other goodies kind of takes the divine sparkle off this remaster. Still, it’s Sacred, and if you’re nostalgic for its brand of chaotic ARPG goodness, there’s plenty to enjoy beneath the holy jank.
The loot system is still one of the best just don’t expect a complete overhaul we deserved for this cult masterpiece.
Sword of Justice
Available Now
The rise of quality mobile/PC gaming titles is reach crazy levels and now we’ve got another. Sword is a surprisingly beautiful, polished adventure available on both mobile and PC a rare combo that actually feels substantial.
The high production values and slick action carry it far, even if the UI feels like it was designed during a power outage. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s one of those games where you go, “Huh, this is way better than I expected,” and end up losing a weekend to it.
Bonaparte - A Mechanized Revolution
Available Now
Whoa.. what’s this!? Bonaparte takes Crusader Kings and Civilization, tosses them in a blender, adds some steampunk seasoning, and hits “chaos mode.” The result? A strategic fever dream that’s equal parts brilliant and broken.
It’s fresh, ambitious, and weirdly addictive not perfect, but if you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Napoleon discovered mechs, this is the bizarre alt-history you didn’t know you needed.
Second Sun
Available Now
This one most likely slide under people’s radar but Second Sun is a unique little oddball that mixes captivating storytelling, solid gunplay, and just enough questionable design decisions to make you mutter “why did they do that?” every ten minutes. But you’ll keep playing anyway, because it’s fun, weirdly, unapologetically fun. The story hooks you, the action keeps you going, and even when the design stumbles, the heart behind it shines through
