GamePro rating: 88 points

Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey – Test video: Huge open world, huge fun?

Journey through Greece: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey impresses above all with its game world, which contains all of ancient Greece on a reduced scale. It is characterized not only by beautiful and varied landscapes, but also lets us visit many sights and get to know historical figures. We even meet a few creatures from Greek mythology on our journey.

More Action RPG: In terms of play, the series moves further in the direction of action role-playing games with Odyssey, which can be seen, among other things, in the new multiple-choice dialogues and the greater focus on combat. The latter play much more exciting than in earlier parts of the series. The ship battles in the style of Black Flag also provide variety. Sneaking and climbing take a back seat, although both are still there.

Conclusion: Not all old fans will be happy with Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, which has strayed too far from the original assassin gameplay of the series. On the other hand, it does a lot better than other parts of the series, especially in terms of the combat system and the playful variety. It also features one of the largest and most beautiful game worlds we’ve seen in a Ubisoft game. For that reason alone, it is undoubtedly worth the current price.

The right game for: Anyone who wants a fun and varied arcade racer.

Not so good for: Everyone who expects a realistic simulation or a great open world.

GamePro rating: 80 points

Lots of speed and a bit of realism: Like its predecessors, Need for Speed ​​Heat is a racing game that focuses less on realism and more on breakneck speed and risky manoeuvres. Nevertheless, the arcade racer has become a bit more demanding, which is mainly due to the opponent AI. This now dispenses with the famous rubber band effect, which means that mistakes are penalized more severely. Still, Need for Speed ​​Heat doesn’t want to be a simulation.

Good gameplay, weak game world: In terms of gameplay, Need for Speed ​​Heat is largely convincing, which is partly due to the division into day and night races, which provides variety. While we compete in official competitions during the day, we increase our prestige in illegal street races at night. But Need for Speed ​​Heat also has weaknesses, which, however, affect less the races than the once again quite boring open world and the clichéd story.

Conclusion: Nobody expected much from the story of a Need for Speed, but at least you could have gotten a little more out of the open world. Nevertheless, the latest part of the famous series has become a very good arcade racer, which is particularly convincing in the most important discipline, namely the gameplay. The variety through the day-night change also ensures that the basically simple racing game captivates for an amazingly long time.

The right game for: Dragon Ball fans and anyone who just wants a good fighting game.

Not so good for: Anyone hoping for an exciting story.

GamePro rating: 87 points

The fighting game Dragon Ball FighterZ is 86 percent cheaper. It costs 9.79 euros instead of 69.99 euros.

Perfect Anime Look: Although it uses 3D models, Dragon Ball FighterZ captures the look of the anime template almost perfectly, both in terms of drawing style, animations and over-the-top effects typical of anime. The fighting game burns off a real firework of effects, but remains easy to read thanks to consistent color coding, which makes it easier for newcomers to get started.

Tag teams and campaign: At the same time, Dragon Ball FighterZ can also challenge experienced fighting game fans in a playful way. In addition to the many combos and special attacks, the tag teams consisting of three characters ensure complexity. We always have to switch to the right character at the right moment to counter attacks perfectly. Although the core is the multiplayer, there is also a solo campaign that lets us choose our own path to the final boss fight, but weakens the story a bit.

Conclusion: For all fans of the template, Dragon Ball FighterZ is a must anyway. Rarely has the anime look been implemented so perfectly in a 3D game as here. But Dragon Ball FighterZ is also interesting for all those who don’t know much about the anime and are just looking for a good fighting game, regardless of how much experience you already have in the genre.

The right game for: Everyone who likes to experiment and is looking for creative solutions.

Not so good for: Anyone who doesn’t have much free time.

GamePro rating: 92 points

The action hit Metal Gear Solid 5 is currently particularly cheap in the PlayStation Store, namely for 5.99 euros instead of 29.99 euros.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain – Test-Video zum Stealth-Hit

Experimentierfreudig: The action game Metal Gear Solid 5 is characterized above all by its enormous playful freedom. We don’t just have a choice between sneaking and shooting. The numerous weapons, pieces of equipment and vehicles give us plenty of opportunities for experimentation in the vast, open areas. For example, if we are confronted with enemy tanks, we can avoid them, set a trap for them with explosives, steal a Panzerfast from a nearby base, or advance with heavy equipment ourselves.

Basenbau: Unfortunately, the story of Metal Gear Solid 5 has gotten a bit confusing, and it’s also quite lengthy. In addition to the gameplay, the progression system in particular ensures long-term motivation: between missions we expand our own base and unlock numerous new pieces of equipment and vehicles in the process. On the one hand, this is an intriguing mechanic, but on the other hand, it also requires a lot of time in a game that is already quite extensive.

Conclusion: Metal Gear Solid 5 hasn’t scooped up tons of top ratings for nothing. The action game impresses with its excellent gameplay, which leaves creative freedom for countless approaches. It does take a certain amount of patience and free time to enjoy Metal Gear Solid 5 though, as the pace of the action game is quite sluggish in terms of both story and progression mechanics.
