G.I. Joe: Wrath of Cobra is an enjoyable side-scrolling beat-'em-up, especially for fans of the genre and the animated series, but it doesn't go beyond being a classic, straightforward effort. The game features a solid combat system-simple yet with a touch of depth in its mechanics-and a great cast of playable characters. There are also some extra modes and secret characters to unlock, although you'll need to grind the same levels quite a bit to unlock everything. On the Switch, the game suffers from frequent slowdowns and a few annoying bugs, which we hope can be resolved soon.

The combat is generally entertaining, although there are sometimes unjustified difficulty spikes , which are also tedious due to the not always perfect management of the automatic checkpoints.

This Sword Art Online: Fractured Daydream is probably among the best titles dedicated to the series released in recent years, although it must be said that the bar was really low. Die-hard fans of the series will love the fact that they can experience a story that unites all the main characters of the series and the possibility of controlling many of them, twenty-one in total. The problem, however, is that the game also has many flaws, including repetitive missions with very basic objectives and a combat system that in its mechanics is satisfied with sufficiency. Despite this, the multiplayer is fun, especially thanks to boss fights that can be faced in 20 players and which become a riot of explosions and colors.

The concept of a transmedia project, with Unknown 9: Awakening serving as an ideal entry point for new users, was intriguing. However, the video game ultimately falls short due to numerous issues. While the story provides a foundation for understanding the broader world of Unknown 9, its lack of creative flair and uninteresting characters.

Iron Meat is a game that draws inspiration from the great classics of the run-and-gun genre, offering a version as faithful as possible to its predecessors. However, it adds modern touches to make it more accessible to today's players. Fast-paced, brutal, and featuring well-crafted pixel art, this title is sure to please fans of the genre. The only major drawback is the lack of content to keep players engaged once the main campaign is over, as there are no extras included.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero , when compared to all the other 3D arena fighting games based on anime (for example Naruto Ninja Storm ), is several steps above all the rest , not only because it manages to emulate the Dragon Ball fights almost perfectly, but above all because it is so much fun that it never gets boring.

Gundam Breaker 4 is likely a dream come true for any fan of the franchise. The ability to customize your Gunpla down to the smallest detail makes this game ideal for long-time collectors of models from the series who can’t wait to experiment with the endless parts available. However, the game is not without its flaws, which are hard to overlook, even for die-hard fans. For instance, while the combat is enjoyable due to the variety of builds you can create, it feels underdeveloped in several areas. Additionally, most missions follow a similar structure, leading to a sense of repetition early on. The story is nothing remarkable, though younger players might find it appealing. On the other hand, the multiplayer component could be a significant plus if you’re able to find a well-coordinated team to play with.

The Switch version of Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown is an excellent conversion, which, sacrificing it as little as possible on a graphic level, proposes a version of the game that is very close to that for PC and for the other technically more performing consoles.

Zenless Zone Zero is another center for Hoyoverse, which has managed to create a free-to-play with a simple but not at all monotonous combat system. The variety of characters and actions at our disposal makes every fight fun to play and spectacular to look at, thanks also to a truly incredible technical and artistic sector for a free game.

The Rising Tide is an well-thought DLC that adds something interesting to all that FFXVI already has to offer.

Under Night In-Birth II Sys: Celes is a compelling fighting game, despite feeling old and way-too classic in many of its choices. It's really hard to understand why Arc System Works chose the same release window as Tekken 8, considering that it didn't help the game at all in getting the attention it deserved.
