Despite an inconsistent RPG mode, Granblue Fantasy: Versus contains well-balanced and rewarding gameplay for fans, experienced players, and newcomers alike.
Under all of the clunkiness and bad habits picked up over 13 games and 35 years, you will find a surprisingly addictive strategy game unlike anything else on the market - if you can put up with it long enough to get to that stage.
All around, Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection is a great package, and a celebration of this franchise's heyday - now to hope for a brand new Mega Man Zero game, hopefully...
Two of the best single player shooters of the last decade make an impressive jump to the Switch thanks to great porting work done by 4A Games.
There's very little to complain about with Two Point Hospital. While it's not the best sim game ever, it's a damn good one, and the fact that it's come over to consoles is great, even with the understandable concessions considered. Those who give it a try will find a funny, charming, and incredibly addictive game that they can lose hours of their life to.
Rugby 20 has a passable foundation for rugby gameplay, but repetitive and barebones modes make it last much shorter than its potential.

AO Tennis 2 can be a hell of a lot of fun, but if you're easily annoyed by some inconsistent controls and a steep learning curve, you're better off avoiding this one.

The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics doesn't do justice to its source material, nor does it come close to matching the excellence of the games it draws inspiration from- but it's solid enough. And sometimes, "solid enough" is good enough.
Except for its solid core gameplay and intriguing story, Warcraft III: Reforged lacks any major updates over the original. In the end, what we have is a game that is a complete disappointment..
Zombie Army 4 makes modest promises, and it delivers on those promises confidently.
Mandate of Heaven may not be a total overhaul to the series' formula but it still offers a lot of new things. The familiar map and lackluster new units are offset by the entertaining new styles of play, new heroes and interesting events. Definitely worth checking out if you've been itching to get back into Three Kingdoms.
Journey to the Savage Planet combines a hilarious and upbeat tone with a constant sense of discovery and progression to make for a fantastic explorative experience.
Re:Mind is a DLC pack tailored for the hardcore players, giving them opportunities to really test themselves. However, more casual players may be better off skipping this and just reading a plot synopsis online.
Though fans who have played these already may find the investment hard to justify, the Atelier Dusk games present probably the single best entry point for newcomers to the series currently.
Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot's power level is not over 9000, and though it suffers from many issues, it's still an enjoyable – if repetitive and inconsistent – experience.
For fans of pure mech action, there's enjoyment to be found in MechWarrior 5, but by and large, this is a game with a lot of unresolved issues that ultimately hold it back from being anything more than passingly fun.
The jury is out on whether or not Life is Strange 2 is superior to the first game, but it is undoubtedly bolder and more ambitious, with something meaningful to say.
