Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart mixes heart and humour in a very action driven adventure beautifully modernized for the new generation. The gameplay will completely engage you with a collection of very diversified weapons and well executed plateforming elements. If you were waiting for a system seller, this is the one. It uses the DualSense fully with haptic feedback and the adaptative triggers as well as the 3D Audio which put together truly give the feeling of a next-gen experience. It will definitely be amongs your favorite games of the year.

Miitopia is a great fit in Nintendo's catalogue since it's a great experience for casual gamers. It's a great place to take your first step into the world of RPGs and this time it comes to Nintendo Switch with a lot of interesting improvements.

Altough this remastered version of Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne is a bit weak in terms of new additions, it's still one of the best in the genre. In my opinion, SMT3 is one of the most well balanced JRPGs in terms of mix of gameplay and story elements. It also offers a great challenge which makes it a bit tough for newcomers, but purists will simply love it.

Famicom Detective Club: The Missing Heir and Famicom Detective Club: The Girl Who Stands Behind are two great games of their genre. Nintendo invested a lot in these lesser known titles and the result is quite great. There's some great production quality behind these remakes, despite some minor flaws. If it your kind of game, give them a shot !

This remastered version of Judgment is the definitive edition that all newcomers should go with first. The fluidity of the combats are very smooth and the loading times are basically completely gone. Its just too bad that this upgraded version doesn't really bring anything new to the table to entice returning players.

Trails of Cold Steel IV marks the conclusion of a huge saga of four games that delivered a lot of emotions. The only way to evaluate the 4th title and final title of a series is to look at the collection as a whole and at the path that brought us to the ending. With that said, we can conclude that Nihon Falcom did an almost flawless job with a story that will stay in my mind for many years.

With an undeniably charming visual, a captivating story and complex gameplay, Bravely Default II is a great JRPG. Despite a few slowdowns, BD2 should satisfy veterans of the genre with its great soundtrack and high level of difficulty. It might not be a game for newcomers, but Claytechworks managed to bring the franchise to the next level without forgetting the essence of what made it great.

Little Nightmares II is a great sequel that builds on the strengths of the first game while making some key adjustments to the gameplay and the overall experience. This new chapter met all my expectations with a compelling story that ties into the first game beautifully. Although the controls are not as buttery smooth as I wish, it is a fun and quick little game that is very well put together.

Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury offers much more than your regular Switch port with a brand new adventure that packs between 5 and 8 hours of great new original content. I loved my time spent in this new open world of Bowser's Fury and going through 3D World a second time sure was a blast. Hopefully, this new package gives the game the second life that it truly deserves.

Ys IX: Monstrum Nox is a step in the right direction for Nihon Falcom with some intense combats and a well-thought-out story. The characters are fun and they bring a lot of possibilities to the gameplaly making it almost impossible for the players to get bored. If it wasn't for the very average visuals and the monotonous colors of the game, the experience could've gone from good to great. Guess we'll have to wait for Ys X...
