Star Fox is a remake that fully preserves the essence of Lylat Wars whilst modernising not only its graphics but also its gameplay mechanics. However, it's been a long time since the heyday of the Nintendo 64. So, whilst the characters' charm and the Arwing controls still hold their own, this reimagining lacks the boldness needed to overcome the limitations of the rail shooter genre today. At 50 euros, it's still a good opportunity to rediscover a major exclusive from the Kyoto-based company's history, but it will take more than this to truly put the franchise back on track.

Deer & Boy is a fine example of the saying that “it's the journey that matters, not the destination.” Although its narrative is highly predictable, LifeLine Games' debut title is nonetheless a captivating experience that skillfully blends the minimalism of Limbo with the emotional depth of Planet of Lana to deliver the kind of adventure we love. Simple, certainly, but moving, at times clever in its approach, and above all, really intense.

If there were to be just one adventure game in your suitcase this summer, it would definitely be The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales. Whilst it doesn't reinvent the genre, it embodies its best aspects with its generous and skillfully crafted story, an exploration that knowns how to reward you, and an immersive world where you truly feel like the hero. It won't become a new benchmark in the genre because of its inevitable comparison with Zelda and its too generic dungeons, but it remains nonetheless one of the most honorable examples of the past few years.

Even though it's great to see good old Indy back on the Nintendo Switch 2, it's hard to say this version does Indiana Jones and the Great Circle full justice. Despite the strength of its story and atmosphere, which remain very true to the spirit of the films, the gameplay experience is let down by a lack of technical optimization and user-friendliness, particularly if you want to enjoy the game in handheld mode.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on Nintendo Switch 2 isn't the version some might have dreamed of. It's the one we could have hoped for: solid, unpretentious, and full of charm.

Quote not yet availablYoshi and the Mysterious Book doesn't deserve to be dissected and analyzed coldly, otherwise its pure gameplay might show its limitations. Ultimately, the Yoshis' range of moves isn't particularly impressive, and the lack of difficulty and even combat can sometimes make the adventure feel a bit sluggish. e

This grand celebration is nonetheless marred by some notable absences. While both the French and original versions remain generally very solid, the lack of iconic voices leaves a slight void.

Of course, Mixtape is a short, highly narrative game with gameplay that takes a bit of a back seat. That said, it's a moving and captivating story that grabs you from the very first track. Beethoven & Dinosaur once again demonstrates its storytelling prowess and its ability to create characters that are as believable as they are endearing. They also unleash all their aesthetic creativity and perfectly capture what it's like to always have the perfect song to accompany every moment. A real treat, in short, that fully delivers on its promise, ensuring it remains one of the highlights of 2026.

Directive 8020 may not be the revolution some were hoping for, but it still stands out as an interesting evolution of The Dark Pictures formula. With this new title, Supermassive Games tries new things and experiments, offering us a narratively gripping adventure, though its gameplay unfortunately suffers from an approach that's far too formulaic. It's still a solid popcorn game, however, and will certainly appeal to fans of the genre and those who enjoy slightly goofy horror experiences.

Replaced is an enjoyable game. While it feels much more conventional than we originally expected, especially after its numerous delays, it's nonetheless a solid effort from Sad Cat Studios. Admittedly, it won't leave a lasting impression for its gameplay or its storyline, but it will likely have no trouble winning over fans of 2.5D action-adventure games who are also fans of cyberpunk settings. Because in the end, that's what we'll remember the most about Replaced: its top-notch retro-futuristic design.

Outbound is a game with a sincere execution, but one that doesn't fully follow through on its ideas. By playing it safe to avoid gameplay that might be too demanding for players, it misses out on a potential that could have made it a true must-have in the cozy gaming scene. Still, it remains a contemplative pleasure for lovers of virtual exploration… one you'll play through from start to finish before tucking it away in the back of your collection, unsure if you'll ever pull it out again to relive the same journey.

Iridium Studios makes a striking comeback with People of Note. While the game isn't quite perfect and could do with a little more spice in its gameplay, it shows real boldness and completely captivates with an art style that fully embraces its concept. The combat system could have used even more polish to make it more engaging. On the other hand, we're treated to a heartfelt adventure—somewhat clichéd, but well worth checking out.

Invincible VS is the refreshing fighting game we've been waiting for, both in terms of its art direction and its gameplay.

It's hard to hide our disappointment with Aphelion, which stands as the very definition of an average game. While there's nothing fundamentally bad or failed about Don't Nod's title, there's still plenty of room for improvement on many levels, which inevitably leaves us with a bitter aftertaste once the adventure is over. We're left with the feeling that we've missed out on what could have been a great adventure, one whose good ideas, though present, weren't properly developed by the studio.

As expected, SAROS stands out as a worthy spiritual successor to Returnal, and even more so. Far from resting on its laurels, Housemarque has successfully built upon the solid foundation of its previous title to deliver an epic adventure, enhanced by new features that make it accessible to a wider audience. While more accessible, SAROS remains a challenging yet exhilarating experience that delivers incredible thrills. This makes it a new must-have in the PS5 catalog, which once again boasts one of its best exclusives thanks to the Finnish studio.

Tomodachi Life: A Dream Life is sure to be one of this spring's must-have releases. By reviving this unique franchise on the Nintendo Switch, Big N reminds us just how powerful and unmatched the Mii characters' comedic appeal is. Moreover, Nintendo offers us a true respite of lighthearted fun that, like Animal Crossing: New Horizons in its day, allows us to escape a particularly anxiety-inducing reality. While the game's distinct identity means it won't appeal to everyone, it will be the perfect choice for anyone looking to treat themselves to short, stress-free gaming sessions full of surprises.

Besides its delightful art style, brilliantly blending inspirations from Cuphead, early Mickey Mouse cartoons, and 1930s film noir, Mouse PI For Hire is from a gameplay standpoint a classic boomer shooter, but very effective and enjoyable to play. Even if its "detective" aspect is largely inconsequential, we generally enjoyed following this frenetic adventure as Troy Baker... Jack Pepper, despite a somewhat tedious final section that leaves a slightly underripe aftertaste for an overall appetizing cheese. Perhaps the upcoming DLC ​​will be the final clue to wrap up the investigation in style ?
