Deck13's futuristic limb removal simulator is a solid but generic entry into the Soulslike genre.
Code Vein is some fun anime nonsense is a slickly designed package with some minor failings.
Contra: Rogue Corps is a game that is so bad, I can't recommend anyone buy it for any price
Sayonara Wild Hearts' is gorgeous and packs an incredible pop soundtrack, but the actual levels the music accompanies never feels as natural as its audiovisual splendor.
Borderlands 3 isn't a franchise altering game, but it does manage to combine great gunplay, an expansive world, and stellar co-op into a great overall package.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening fits right at home on the Switch, feeling like a fresh title despite being over twenty years old
Daemon X Machina is a great mech action game that's comparable in quality to the best entries in the franchise it's heavily inspired by
While occasionally caving under the weight of its ambition, Greedfall delivers a world worth exploring inhabited by characters and stories just as memorable.
Remothered: Tormented Fathers on Switch needs to have CPS called on it.
A brilliantly realized, brutal and bloody Metroidvania that is the next best thing to reading up on Catholic Martyrs while you whip yourself with a barbed cat-o-nine-tails.
Gears of War 5 isn't a bad game, it's just the worst game in the series (I quite liked Judgement). It promised to bring new ideas to the series, and it does, but to the detriment of the game as a whole with how poorly designed they all are. The open-world levels are empty and boring, the story is lackluster after a great first act, and the new Escape mode is a fleeting distraction at best. Gears of War needs changes, but not like this.
Iceborne is the definitive endgame of Monster Hunter World and a proper sendoff to the game that ignited a new generation of fans in the West to experience the series for the first time.
Overall, Torchlight II on the Switch is an excellent addition to its library of fun, multiplayer-oriented games for both new fans and those wanting to return to the world of Vilderan after an extended absence.
Catherine: Full Body has more interesting things to say about relationships that are dragged down by a story too cynical to let it shine.
Heave Ho is a fun multiplayer game that provides plenty of laughter – provided you play with three of your friends.
The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan pales in comparison to Until Dawn in practically every way and only surpasses it in its amount of jankiness.
"Faith" continues Life is Strange 2's examination of a broken system to showcase a series at its most powerful.
Control combines the best elements of Remedy's third-person pedigree with a well-realized open world that any sci-fan will enjoy.
Astral Chain is a fantastic character action game that reimagines the subgenre at its core with a completely original and immensely satisfying combat system
A survival game that feels like a puzzle and plays a bit awkwardly. Overall, a brain-burning but enjoyable experience.
