Hitman World of Assassination - Signature Edition is a great entry point into third-party games on the Switch 2. It's lacking in a few important aspects, but it's a high-quality product that offers everything it had before and more, even with exclusive Mario-themed costumes. An intriguing story, excellent voice acting, a masterful soundtrack, and an absurd amount of gameplay freedom make this one of the best Hitman installments ever.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on the Switch 2 delivers a surprisingly solid adaptation of a complex and technically demanding RPG. The detailed setting, extensive customization system, and engaging narrative are intact, despite the graphical and structural compromises made to run on the new console. The inclusion of the Phantom Liberty expansion further enhances the value of the package, with notable improvements in world-building, narrative choices, and overall pacing. Despite some repetitive content and limitations inherited from the original project, the game offers an immersive experience, particularly for those who enjoy dense stories and freedom of approach. The strong technical performance, versatile controls, and preservation of Night City's visual identity show that the Switch 2 is capable of supporting ambitious titles when proper adaptation efforts are made, resulting in a well-executed and complete version.

Even with small additions and no strong exclusivity reasons, Yakuza 0 remains an amazing game, with sharp gameplay, stunning visuals, an excellent soundtrack, and packed with things to do. But, above all, it tells a powerful story of honor, sacrifice, and duty, shaping young men and creating some of the most iconic personalities in gaming.

The Red Bell’s Lament is yet another Voltage otome game that stands out with its dramatic flavor and an even more unusual route structure than the previous game. For those looking for a charismatic visual novel in a world with vampires and humans struggling against calamities, this is a good pick.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition elevates an already memorable adventure to new heights. The technical improvements — such as smooth 60 fps gameplay, 4K resolution with HDR, and near-instant loading times — make exploration even more enjoyable, despite some lingering limitations. Additionally, the support for Zelda Notes adds useful and interesting features to the experience, although its implementation through an external app limits its practical potential. In the end, this new version preserves the charm and depth of the original journey, now with refinements that enhance immersion and make the return to Hyrule more captivating than ever.

Chronicles of the Wolf surprised me positively. Representing its influences with pride, Migami Games delivered a captivating, fun metroidvania that hits all the base pillars, like narrative, ambientation and gameplay. Beyond nostalgia, the conclusion is that this perilous trip to XVIII Century Gévaudan is worth living for fans of the genre who aren't afraid of bidimensional haunted castles. After all, subduing the horrors that torment the area is long overdue.

As commendable as it is for Nintendo to be so open about the Switch 2's most minute details, the game's flaw is precisely that it doesn't bring many gameplay elements to the experience. What is engaging gameplay in the minigames is buried by repetitive control proposals in these activities and tests that feel like school exams. Make no mistake: this is an interesting welcome tour. However, it reminds us of how much more special our arrivals to other consoles in the past were.

Split Fiction is pure joy for two players: a heartwarming, hilarious, and entertaining adventure that oozes creativity with its myriad mechanics. While there are some downgrades, the Switch 2 version is visually very competent and is a must-have for console owners looking for new multiplayer experiences.

Picross S NAMCO Legendary Edition is yet another good logic puzzle pack from Jupiter, now using the core theme of classic NAMCO games. We get all the quality we've come to expect from the Picross S line and it's very worth it to to clear the puzzles, though there's this feeling that it could be a little more creative in valuing the legacy of the classics here and how to present them to the players.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is the best way to replay the classic game in the series. Its visual and performance improvements make the adventure more fluid and more stunning, both on TV and on the handheld screen. Not all of its improvements are unanimous, however. The Zelda Notes app brings additional useful and interesting tools, at the cost of an extremely questionable implementation. Finally, the lack of the expansion pack prevents us from calling it the definitive and complete version of the game.

RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army shouldn't even be considered a remaster, given how many additions it has received, and should be considered a remake. Small details don't take away from its enormous quality as a re-release. Perhaps with the success of this game we'll see the sequel — and equally iconic — King Abbadon return with a new look and improvements as good as Soulless Army. Until then, Raidou has never been better against the army of darkness.

Fast Fusion is a modest and rich game at the same time. The fun is guaranteed in the fast racing, with welcome additions, like the jump, that renovate the gameplay while we are dazzled by the impressive visuals it presents. Despite the limited content and the absence of options, such as online matchmaking, the experience is worth playing and leaves us eager for the future updates the development team has already promised and that may make the package even richer.

Mario Kart World is a solid addition to the franchise, with interesting twists that bring new dynamics to the series. The introduction of interconnected tracks and new techniques offer new levels of complexity while still maintaining a good balance for casual players. However, some issues, such as the lack of inspiration in the roads between the courses and the unattractive rewards in Free Mode, hold the game back from reaching its full potential. Still, the game captivates with stunning visuals, fun modes, and a dynamic atmosphere that captures the chaotic essence of what Mario Kart is all about, while also offering possibilities for the future. Ultimately, Mario Kart World won me over — it's chaotic, beautiful, and addictive in the way the series knows how to be.

BRAVELY DEFAULT FLYING FAIRY HD Remaster is still enchanting. The high-definition graphics, the striking soundtrack (it's impossible not to hum the battle or map themes), the quality voice acting (although only in English and Japanese) and the charisma of the characters guarantee a great experience. If you're a fan of the series, this is the perfect opportunity to relive the adventure. If you've never played it, but like RPGs with good stories and strategic combat, you can jump in without fear.

Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S barely justifies its existence. It is a re-release of a sequel already available on the console via backwards compatibility, with additions that border on superfluous or were poorly thought out, such as mouse controls. There was no attention paid to, at the very least, adding a Brazilian Portuguese localization, as with other recent titles from the producer. Considering that the title is also being sold separately and with no upgrade options for owners of the sequel on the original console, it is difficult to recommend this purchase.

Challenging and captivating, Monster Train 2 joins the select list of the best deckbuilders available on the Switch, thanks to its hundreds of possible strategic combinations and a technically impeccable port. Although important aspects such as the tutorial and the difficulty curve could clearly be improved, there is no denying that this is an unmissable journey for fans of the genre looking for something new, capable of providing hours of entertainment.

Is Super Technos World: River City & Technos Arcade Classics worth the investment? I would say yes, but with caution. Despite the meager collection of games and its minimal preservation factor, it is still a collection of solid games and some of Kunio-kun's most entertaining secondary titles. It's not the best way to pay respect to Kunio-kun's legacy, but it is an intriguing selection to see a bit of Technos history.
