Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War captures the feel of the sci-fi classic perfectly, and is just good old fashioned FPS fun.
Crabmeat is a decent fishing game, but if you go into it expecting to get scared by the horrors of the sea then you'll be sorely disappointed.
Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse is just as interesting a game as its predecessor, and the island setting and its folklore is fantastic.
Tales of Berseria Remastered may not really add much to the base game, but it's still a fantastic JRPG that you'd be a fool to miss.
Pokémon LeafGreen is one of the best Pokémon games full stop, and even in 2026 it's an absolutely delightful experience.
Core Keeper is a ridiculously compelling survival game that's great on the Switch 2, and I lost so many hours building the perfect base.
Ys X: Proud Nordics may not be the best the series has to offer, but the Switch 2 version is fantastic and the new content is great.
Demon Tides is a 3D platformer that'll be hard to top in 2026, with exquisite movement, tons of variety, and so many ways to kit out Beebz.
The Super Bomberman Collection is a wonderful bundle of games, whether you were a Bomberman kid or want to try something new.
Chromagun 2: Dye Hard is a clever puzzle game with a unique colour twist, but the difficulty never quite feels testing enough.
Romeo is a Dead Man is an absolutely wild ride, and although it has some duller moments I'm seriously glad I saw it through to the end.
The Prisoning: Fletcher’s Quest isn't going to light the world on fire, but if you're looking for a platformer without any frills you may enjoy it.
Mewgenics is one of the densest and most entertaining tactics games ever made, and I'll be discovering new stuff in it for years to come.
My Hero Academia: All's Justice is the perfect way to say goodbye to an anime titan, with so much content and flashy as hell combat.
Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is a comfy blanket of JRPG nostalgia, and despite having some pacing issues I never wanted it to end.
Don't Stop, Girlypop! is a pretty pink FPS full of diamonds and flip phones, and it also has the fastest gunplay you could ever handle.
The Switch 2 is now my console of choice for playing Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade, and it's still one of the best RPGs of all time.
Escape from Ever After is the Paper Mario style game I've been waiting for since the GameCube, with a seriously charming fairytale setting.
Cult of the Lamb: Woolhaven adds a whole host of new wintery content to one of 2022’s best games, and is a great reason to go back.
BrokenLore: UNFOLLOW is far and away the most ambitious title in this series, and despite some faults it tells an engaging story.
