Despite having a strong release, Battlefield 6 has struggled to keep up. The player base has dropped drastically as EA/DICE struggle to come out with quality content. It's a shame because I love the feel of this game as it reminds me of the Battlefield games I grew up with. However, I have mixed feelings thanks to questionable game design choices and for the fact that EA/DICE have struggled yet again with keeping up with the live service model.

Dying Light: The Beast is another fantastic entry in the franchise. The Beast continues to offer one of the best gameplay formulas out there. The combat is great. It’s as gory and as gruesome as it’s ever been. The game is just as fun when you aren’t chopping zombie heads off thanks to the parkour element. Techland created a perfectly sized open world game, and they were able to successfully integrate the parkour and combat systems into it. The Beast is a must play due to its stellar gameplay and linear focused narrative.

Mafia: The Old Country is a game that looks great but is lacking in content. It’s a classic single-player narrative experience that offers a fun story. But the storytelling and gameplay elements are limited due to the game’s length. I enjoyed my time with the title, but I was expecting a lot more from the fourth installment in this franchise.
