The Agent 47 adventure reboot that began in 2016 is drawing to a close ending. The “ World of Assassination ” trilogy concludes with a third episode soberly titled Hitman 3 which follows in the footsteps of its predecessors. For nearly five years, IO Interactive Studios have been working to return to the roots of the " Hitman " franchise, the meticulous and thoughtful murder, and leave the action in its simplest device in the locker room. Will this video game's with the most formidable assassin able to end his own story with panache? That's what we will find out in this game review.

Milestone Interactive has not been unemployed at the end of the last decade, synonymous with the end of the console generation. Between Ride , MotoGP , Monster Energy Supercross, and MXGP , the Milanese studio has produced more than a dozen titles in 3 years since 2018 (!). I was impatiently awaiting the first baby adapted to a next-gen console, I am talking about the brand new PS5 and its DualSense controller. 2021 offers us this first draft with motocross and MXGP 2020 , already published on PC and old-gen mid-December. In fact, this is the sixth episode dedicated to the MXGP championship, fifth in five years, the latter can face some obstacles despite a real feeling of technical progress over time.

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game celebrated its 10th anniversary in the summer of 2020. And what better way to blow out your candles than to return to the ring in a “Complete Edition” intended for recent machines? This Beat'em Up published by Ubisoft and Universal Games was originally an adaptation of the Canadian comic book "Scott Pilgrim" by Bryan Lee O'Malley, a comic book also adapted into a film the same year and directed by Edgar Wright.

In video games, we often complain about predictable AIs, which run around in plain sight and sometimes find themselves in the middle of the battlefield. But in Unspottable , this simplicity of mind is your greatest strength. The title is a multiplayer-only party game where you have to blend in with a crowd so as not to be flushed out by other players like Hidden in Plain Sight.
