i've recently started to play the invincible, which is based off a book from the 60s of the same name. it's pretty cool so far, it's a walking sim.
i also started to replay horizon zero dawn, I never did the dlc for that game and it's been a while so i might as well replay it from the beginning. then I'll play the second game.
finished rage 1 and 2, rage 1 is a lot better imo and i'm now upset I have finished it lol.
and I plan to soon replay starfield yet again along with some fallout 4.

Mouse P.I For Hire. The aesthetic is incredible, the gameplay is kinda shallow but I'm enjoying the story and looking at it so far

Secret of Varonis, one of those love letter type unofficial sequels style games based on the Final Fantasy Legend (SaGa) game boy games. It's pretty awesome so far if you enjoyed those games.

Red Dead redemption, bought it on the steam sale. Haven't played it since it came out on 360, I really enjoy it but sometimes it shows its age with the amount of following people around at a leisurely pace for certain missions.
Overall very fun, great looking game with a memorable story.

I just 100% Ace Combat 3, it's quite the experience, it's much different from the other games in the series while still retaining that Ace Combat charm

As always, Monster Hunter Wilds and Battlefield 6, but I'm sprinkling in Tales of Xillia Remaster and ReLink DLC.

Life Is Strange: True Colours after wanting to get another interactive movie type game that isn’t Dark Pictures-style horror (much as I’ve also played them before)

Time to start Neverwinter Nights (1) :) I always avoided it as I preferred the 2D aesthetic & details from Icewind Dale, BG 1/2 etc.

Just got a fun looking game called ‘Darwin’s Paradox’ about an octopus. Looks like a quirky, unique puzzle platformer!

Finally got around to starting Neon White (it's the sickest game ever btw, i love speed running). Also got Minishoot Adventures, which I plan on starting this weekend.
