With the Remastered of Onimusha: Warlords, Capcom offers old and new players the chance to discover one of the most intriguing action games of the PS2 era. The work done by the development team is good, with a very positive restyling from a technical point of view but a little less good from that of the gameplay, which is particularly affected by the weight of the years and has to deal with structural limits that are decidedly difficult to digest in 2019.

A short but interesting experience that offers a nice combat system and some great moments while fighting the huge bosses, but the overall adventure does not feel as unique as expected. Despite that, you should really give Munaka a try to discover an old and fascinating culture such as the Tarahumara.

With Mario Sports Superstars, Camelot brings to the Mushroom Kingdom five of the most-loved sports that 3DS users can enjoy with Mario, Luigi and lots of other well-known characters. The different sports are good, but the game seems to be fun only if you play together with your friends or via online multiplayer, due to a lack of variety in the single-player activities.

Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle is a nice experiment that turns an iconic saga into a battle royale, even if some gameplay mechanics don't fit well with Tōru Iwatani's original concept.

Hot Garbage is a DLC pack that adds a new, self-contained area and a few upgrades to the original gameplay formula. Despite that, its story can be completed in a couple of hours and the number of new activities is too small for its price tag.

Sea of Thieves is a fascinating experience that is undermined by the lack of variety and player progression. A game that shines if played along with your buddies, but fails to engage the user if played without a group of friends.

The first season of Batman - The Telltale Series comes to Nintendo Switch without any particular feature. The port itself is not bad, but of course the graphics is less polished than the other versions already available on PC and home consoles. The possibility of playing the adventure on the go is the real thing here, though the developer could have risked a bit more to create a unique experience by taking advantage of Joy-Cons and HD Rumble. Let's hope that Telltale Games could do more with the Season 2 coming to Switch in the next months.

Ten years after the original game, Burnout Paradise Remastered sends you back to the Paradise City thanks to a great porting by Stellar Entertainment, that allows you to enjoy the freedom of Criterion's racing in the 4K resolution. Unfortunately, some of the core gameplay features start to feel old if compared to much modern games such as Forza Horizon or the upcoming The Crew 2, but if you can accept those compromises you will find in this Remastered edition a great racing game to play along with your friends.

State of Decay 2 refines the formula of the original episode without overturning it: with good tricks and a couple of novelties not bad, among all the possibility to play in cooperative mode with other friends, the survival of Undead Labs confirms itself one of the best exponents for lovers of the horror genre, with a budget price that counters a technical sector that is certainly not exceptional.

Fe is an emotional journey, a 3D platform/adventure that will make you discover many amazing places in order to free an ancient forest from the evil Silents. While the first part of the game can be frustrating due to the lack of hints and advices from the developers, once you'll get over the sense of confusion you will find in Fe a great adventure with some epic moments that you don't want to miss, no matter what.

A huge step forward in the UFC saga, thanks to the Real Player Motion Technology used by EA to recreate more than 5,000 animations in the game. Its complex combat system allows players to think about different strategies and attack the opponent with several techniques. A game that requires patience and dedication to master its deep gameplay, especially if you want to rule in the online multiplayer modes.

Good old FIFA, but bigger, better, smoother. It's underwhelming that EA Sports didn't go for a brand new experience for the debut of their "new IP", but at the same time FC 24 is a good game. On the structure of FIFA 23, EA Sports builds a series of improvements that increase the variety of the experience and introduce a compelling sense of uncertainty in the gameplay action. Very nice note: the management career is one of the best single player modes in years in the series.

A good conversion that, despite a less-significant impact from a graphical point of view, keeps the same experience, flow, and fun gameplay of the original shooter made by id Software. It's yet another great example of Panic Button's ability to achieve what seemed impossible for yet another huge third-party AAA game that makes 2020 one of the best year in Nintendo Switch history.

Sumo Digital's new game is a colorful and fun adventure that brings back Sackboy, allowing players to explore new worlds, each based on different themes and gameplay mechanics. A great game for Christmas to spend some time along with your family, thanks to the 4-player co-op mode.

A good expansions that shines in its most difficult activities, but that does not offer enough content to keep the community engaged for a very long time. The new path taken by Bungie is very promising, though.

A fun shooter that shines thanks to a few tweaks to the original formula, as well as some new weapons, maps, and customization options that make Splatoon 3 the best chapter in the saga.
