Dragonball Xenoverse 2 is available on other consoles, and I have played them, but the Switch is the best place for the game to call home. The handheld options take the game to a new level, online battles work just fine with Nintendo Switch Online, and local multiplayer is a blast even with joycons. Dragonball Xenoverse 2 for the Nintendo Switch is easily one of the best Dragonball games ever made, and it surpasses The Legacy of Goku as the best localized Dragonball RPG ever. Although the game has been out for a while now, it’s still going strong. It is a great time to pick it up due to its $40USD price point, and brand-new DLC that adds Broly and Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta are just on the horizon. Simply put, this game is a MUST PLAY for Dragonball fans.
Some of the earlier Final Fantasy games simply transcend time and need to be made available for the newer generations, and this is one that I hope to see them experience
Reverie excels by evoking that nostalgic feeling while at the same time making every location feel like something completely new and innovative.
Trigger Witch proves the success of Reverie wasn’t a fluke and that Rainbite is here to stay.
As for Warframe, it’s a pretty simple choice if you’re a fan of the modern western RPGs in the same category as Mass Effect or Skyrim. The same goes for gamers that enjoy squad based, online combat. I’ll reiterate that Warframe is a FREE download – if you have fear that the game is weighted with micro transactions, let it go. Are they there? Yes, but they never feel necessary in the least bit. Warframe offers an experience on the Switch that you can’t experience with any other game on the console. I would recommend making sure you have an SD card before downloading it because it certainly does absorb a ton of space. I can’t think of any other reason to avoid giving Warframe on the Nintendo Switch a download.
Tight controls and a perfectly vintage soundtrack make Aggelos a game that should be enjoyable by anyone that loves the 8/16-bit eras of gaming.
While the Adventure Mode only manages to save par, Mario Golf: Super Rush aces the zany, arcade feel of Mario kart with its Speed and Battle Modes.
Over-the-top and delightfully weird at times, Baobab’s Mausoleum was the breath of fresh air that I didn’t know I needed.
Beyond the semi-erotic art and character design is a deep, well-crafted world filled with lore based on Daoist culture twisted into a Cyberpunk setting.
While shaky in the opening act, Dex ultimately comes into its own and provides a short (but worthwhile) cyberpunk experience.
Looking for a blend of real-time tactics, time manipulation, and walls of text? Tower of Time might be the game for you.
The best way to counter a creativity crisis is to bring your comic book to life in order to “duke” it out in roguelite, shoot’em up fashion.
Does this paradoxical, naive-yet-suggestive Metroidvania stick the landing as a potential best indie of early 2020?
Though it may be considered a series spin-off, Darksiders Genesis is one hell of a prequel.
The beauty of Vampyr is that it puts you in the state of mind of an actual vampire. For that alone, it might be worth a taste.
The Tick Tock Travelers is an entry level RPG at heart, but it also provides plenty of depth for veterans of the genre.
The modern twists, such as freedom of choice, an open world map, and near limitless side quests, separates Artifact Adventure Gaiden DX from its inspiration.
Rick May stumble out of the gate early on, but these attributes give Fox N Forests an identity of its own, allowing Bonus Level’s debut to stand toe-to-toe with its nostalgic contemporaries.
At the end of the day there is something to appreciate about a game that makes it feel OK for kids to play through a creepy story. Bendy and the Ink Machine manages to provide “PG-13 horror” in a game that I’ve never seen done before previously. If you’re in search of a game that you can play with the kids that isn’t within the realm of a party game or a fighter, Bendy could very well be the story for you, if you can get past the very obvious Bioshock comparisons and the couple of irritating bugs within.
Ashwalkers is just a few inconvenient bugs away from being an “eShop essential.”
