Splatoon Raiders drops the competitive scaffolding, keeps the ink, and loses less than you would expect. What is built on top is a good action RPG and the most fun I have had with Splatoon in years.
D-topia is a beautifully crafted puzzle adventure that combines clever environmental puzzles with heartfelt storytelling and thought-provoking themes. Its gentle pacing and relaxing atmosphere won't satisfy players looking for constant excitement, but those willing to immerse themselves in its carefully constructed world will discover an emotionally rewarding journey that explores the meaning of happiness with surprising depth.
Overall, Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced is an excellent re-entry to the Assassin’s Creed series. A lot of the quality of life changes that have been made to combat allows for a more engaging and fluid system, the expansion of the story line to see deeper character growth, and obviously the complete graphic overhaul bridges the gap between Black Flag’s original release and the more modern entries allowing a new generation of gamers to dive into Black Flag.
33 Immortals transforms chaotic 33 player battles into an exhilarating cooperative roguelike experience. Its addictive progression, rewarding teamwork, memorable boss encounters, and refreshingly accessible design make it one of the most original multiplayer games in recent years, even if visual clutter and limited communication occasionally get in the way.
Mayhem is a bold new step for the Disgaea series, and even though someone like me greatly enjoys the occasional different genre spin-off, there simply isn't much to be seen here. The game places a lot of emphasis on the Magichange mechanic, but the reality is that it rarely comes up during actual gameplay, as most enemies are pushovers and don't really require you to put in any effort. There's a lot of grinding to be done, something that fans of the series will probably enjoy, but while the stick is present, the carrot is unfortunately nowhere to be found.
DragonSword: Awakening is a satisfying open-world action RPG held back by progression scaffolding left over from its free-to-play gacha past.
Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition is no question a top tier RPG and we knew that before going into this. The Switch 2 Edition enhances the quality of your experience with a smooth 60 frames per second with up to 4K resolution supported. The little additional content is the cherry on top, adding even more fun without taking away from what makes the game special.
Moonlight Peaks provides a thriving community that rewards you with every interaction. There’s lots of daily activities and rewards to incentivize you to keep playing. Some concepts aren’t explained well and the story pace can be slow. It’s definitely a cozy game that needs investment but pays off at the end.
Swan Song is a beautiful reminder that puzzle games do not need pressure or spectacle to leave a lasting impact. Its inventive music based mechanics, relaxing pace, and touching story come together to create an experience that is both intellectually satisfying and emotionally moving. While its slow pacing and familiar structure may not appeal to everyone, those willing to embrace its quiet rhythm will discover one of the year's most memorable indie puzzlers.
007 First Light is an excellent stealth-action game wrapped in one of entertainment's most iconic licenses. It offers gorgeous visuals, strong performances, satisfying stealth mechanics, and an engaging origin story for James Bond. At the same time, it leans so heavily on the foundation established by Hitman that longtime fans may struggle to see it as a truly original experience. If you've always wanted Hitman with more story, more action, and the unmistakable style of James Bond, you'll probably have a fantastic time. If you were hoping for a revolutionary reinvention of the spy genre, you may walk away feeling like you've simply replayed a familiar masterpiece dressed in a tuxedo.
Star Fox is a gorgeous and solid remake that brings this classic arcade shooter into the present.
NBA The Run is just a fun arcade basketball game and we've been itching for a new one for a while. There's room for improvement for sure and the developer is already looking into adding more modes.
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is a beautiful, charming, and frequently brilliant action RPG that earns its inspirations. If Team Asano and Claytechworks get to make a sequel with this engine and the rough edges get smoothed out, they'll have something even more special.
Rise of the Tomb Raider is the strongest entry in the Survivor trilogy, and nothing about this port changes that judgment. But the question is whether the Switch 2 is the right place to experience it. For first-timers, the case is straightforward: the price is reasonable, the DLC bundle is generous, and the portable factor is a nice cherry on top. For anyone who has already played this at 60fps on PlayStation or PC, this is an easy skip.
UFC 6 is a mix of both new and familiar ideas, but don't let that stop you from stepping into the Octagon. Despite a few minor issues and some occasionally clunky ground controls, the game remains an absolute blast to play. Whether you're creating a realistic fighter or running wild with a character sporting a cannon for an arm, knocking opponents out never stops being entertaining. Like any seasoned fighter, UFC 6 carries a few scars and imperfections, but it refuses to stay down for the count. It provides an excellent entry point for newcomers while giving longtime fans a comfortable and familiar experience enhanced by a handful of welcome improvements. It may not be flawless, but UFC 6 delivers a fun, engaging, and accessible MMA experience that keeps you coming back for one more fight.
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a unique puzzle-platformer that is definitely the most fun a Yoshi game has been in a while. It has a simple story to follow and there's plenty of room for replayability depending how much exploring you want to do. What I love the most is that you aren't forced to explore everything before completing the story.
For puzzle fans, though, Puzzling Places is a fantastic experience. It is relaxing, satisfying, and packed with beautifully recreated locations. Sometimes it's nice to play a game that simply lets you unwind, and Puzzling Places does exactly that.
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is one of the best that TT Games has put out to date. This sets the standard of what LEGO games should be. Funny, engaging story, simplified combat, and plenty of references are to be found in this game.
Rune Dice is an absolutely brilliant roguelike that blends physics, strategy, and build crafting into one of the most addictive gameplay loops I've experienced in a long time. Whether on a laptop or a Rog Ally X, it is the kind of game that constantly pulls you back for one more run, one more build, and one more chance to create the perfect chain reaction.
Mina the Hollower is an excellent action-adventure 2D platformer that features intriguing storytelling, enjoyable yet challenging gameplay, and an overall exceptional experience
