Splatoon 2 on the Nintendo Switch feels more like an updated, expanded Switch port of the first game than a sequel, but that's pretty compelling on its own.
Quarantine doesn't do enough to differentiate itself from similar titles, and its new features aren't significant enough to sway its target demographic from its analog counterpart.
Nier: Automata is a match made in heaven, blending the zany tragedy of Yoko Taro's storytelling with Platinum Games' high-energy gameplay. Unfortunately, the PC port suffers from performance problems.
Packed with features and boasting a compelling story, Injustice 2 sets the new fighting game standard.

If you like block-dropping puzzles and own a Nintendo Switch, Puyo Puyo Tetris is a must-have game.

Well-executed action and native mod support shine in this great looking, if brief, shooter that is sometimes mired by repetition.
There's very little here you haven't seen before. Sony has made tweaks, streamlined game modes, harkened back to the olden days, and added depth to The Show experience. However, if you're looking for a brand new experience, a revolutionary mode, or something that dramatically differentiates The Show 17 from the rest of the franchise, you're out of luck.
Despite its rougher edges, Mass Effect: Andromeda is a fine third-person shooter that features terrific space exploration. If you can overlook the clunky menus and graphics issues, you're in for some fun space hijinks.
