Two protagonists, a colossal open world, impressive graphics engine — on paper, it's all there. But between Ubisoft's promises and the reality of a dozen hours in-game, the gap can be painfully wide. Lumnix put the game under the microscope. Uncompromising verdict.

Cygames continues to expand Granblue Fantasy: Relink with Endless Ragnarok, a new edition that introduces two playable female characters, an original antagonist, and a full summon mechanic.

Granblue Fantasy Relink: The Best Co-op Action-RPG You Slept On
Released in early 2024 to relative indifference, Granblue Fantasy Relink stands as one of the most polished action-RPGs in recent years. Spectacular combat, smooth online cooperation, generous endgame content: CyGames delivered a game that absolutely warrants your attention.

Crimson Desert: 5 Million Copies Sold, the Game Redefining Action-RPG
In just a few weeks, Crimson Desert has crossed the 5 million copies sold milestone worldwide. A figure that owes nothing to chance or aggressive marketing—Pearl Abyss simply built a game that answers a deep market hunger. But behind the sales numbers lie deeper questions about what this success reveals about the state of action-RPG in 2025, and what Pearl Abyss has truly accomplished after years of chaotic development.
Enotria: The Last Song — The Rough Italian Souls-Like Hiding Real Gems
Released to widespread indifference in 2024, Enotria: The Last Song is one of those indie games that deserves a second look. Inspired by Mediterranean folklore, this transalpine souls-like bears the scars of its tight budget and its studio's inexperience, but it contains genuinely honest level design and a visual identity you won't see anywhere else.

Seven Deadly Sins: Origin — The Gacha That Promises Everything and Takes Even More
Netmarble returns to the Seven Deadly Sins license with an ambitious mobile action-RPG, technically polished and packed with spectacle.
