GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 gives you busy pack racing, a documentary-style Story, and a long Career that rotates you through touring cars, trucks, and other builds across street circuits, arenas, and off-road routes. You spend your time weaving through traffic, managing throttle and braking on digital triggers or a GameCube controller, nudging rivals as the nemesis system turns repeat clashes into personal duels, and swapping between Story chapters, Career ladders, and custom Free Play grids. The missing online multiplayer and cutscenes that sometimes talk longer than you might like hold it back a bit, but if you enjoy single-player racing and want a packed calendar of events to work through, GRID Legends: Deluxe Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 is an easy pick.
Styx: Blades of Greed pulls you back into stealth-heavy goblin heists, with tall maps, an airship hub, and Quartz powers that let you swing between rooftops, glide over patrols, and set up tricks like cocoons, mind control, and nasty traps. You spend your time picking contracts from the ship, sneaking through The Wall, Turquoise Dawn, and Akenash, crafting tools, and dragging bodies out of sight. Odd guard behaviour, camera slips, and a stealth loop that repeats the same scout, separate, clear pattern hold it back, but the mix of vertical routes, goblin chatter, and room to plan your own approach still works well if you’re up for patient sneaking and can live with some quirks.
High On Life 2 pulls you back into sci-fi bounty hunting with bigger alien hubs, a skateboard that replaces sprinting, and a pharma story that drags your family and chatty guns into something larger than last time. You spend your time swapping between Gatlians, riding rails through cities, and tackling bounties that mix short investigations, arena runs, races, odd jobs, and side routes that can lead to extra scenes or endings if you chase them down. Frequent reloads, gunfights that feel oddly flat when music fails to kick in, and hubs that are easy to get turned around in hold it back, but when everything behaves, the mix of talking weapons, colourful streets, and sharper pharma satire still works well if you want to dive back into this world.
Tokyo Scramble is a stealth-first horror game that traps you in derailed subway tunnels under Tokyo, with dinosaur-like Zinos waiting for you to make a mistake. Sneaking, heart-rate management, and Anne’s watch apps turn vending machines, alarms, gates, and elevators into tools for surviving short, stage-based runs, with GameShare co-op letting friends split movement, camera control, and gadget duty. The group chats and casual banter don’t always match how much danger Anne is in, but the chapter format makes it easy to play a few stages at a time and, paired with steady performance, it’s a strong fit if you want horror that’s all about planning routes instead of pulling the trigger.
Crisol: Theater of Idols is a first-person horror game where every shot drains your own blood, turning ammo management into the heart of each fight. Tormentosa’s twisted churches, frozen processions, and hostile idols give the story a strong Spanish religious horror hook, helped by characters like Mediodia and La Planidera. Some encounters run long and a few speeches go over the top, but the blood-for-ammo combat, compact districts, and fairground hub come together into a tight horror run that’s easy to recommend if you like deliberate, lore-heavy scares.
Mario Tennis Fever will feel familiar if you’ve played earlier Mario tennis games, but Fever shots and special racquets change how rallies play out and how you plan each point. You’re still judging timing, picking your shots, and moving to cover the court, while Adventure mode and Trial Towers give you room to learn when to trigger powered replies or bring racquets that tilt the court in your favour. If you like tennis games that stay easy to pick up yet give you more to think about as rallies stretch out, Mario Tennis Fever builds on that style in a satisfying way.
Reanimal will feel familiar if you’ve played Little Nightmares or Little Nightmares II, but the shift into fully 3D spaces changes how you explore and move forward. You’re still relying on observation, using light to find paths, and working together to solve puzzles, but there’s more freedom in how you approach each area. If you liked how Little Nightmares made you pay attention to your surroundings instead of guiding you directly, Reanimal builds on that while giving you more room to explore and figure things out yourself.
ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is a fast, aggressive action game that gives you a lot early and expects you to learn by playing. Fights come at you constantly, and you’ve got a lot of freedom in how you upgrade and adjust your build. If you’re comfortable figuring things out as you play, it delivers an experience that sticks to its own approach.
StarRupture is a tense and beautiful game that mixes factory building with survival action. Being in Early Access, it needs more content for the late game and better options for accessibility, but the core gameplay is already very addictive. It is a great start that fans of the genre should check out.
Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties brings one of Kiryu’s most personal chapters back with smoother combat, stronger pacing, and a clearer sense of place. The remake respects what made Yakuza 3 different, while Dark Ties adds context without pulling focus away from the main story. It isn’t flawless, but as a complete package, it’s an easy chapter to return to and play through.
My Hero Academia: All’s Justice delivers its best moments in combat, where fast team-based fights and a large roster give you plenty to explore. Animated story scenes add weight to the finale, but heavy summarization and skipped arcs make the narrative less complete on its own. Extra modes add time with the cast, though they don’t always match the strength of the core battles. If you’re invested in the series and want a solid arena fighter, there’s a lot here to enjoy.
Fighting Force Collection brings two late-1990s games back mostly as they were, with a few modern touches to keep them playable now. The original Fighting Force still has a solid brawler gameplay loop, especially with co-op and a tolerance for its older design quirks. Fighting Force 2 slows things down and never finds the same pull, which makes the difference between the two hard to ignore. This collection makes the most sense if the first game is the main reason you’re here.
Nioh 3 pushes you to actually use everything it gives you instead of letting one approach carry the whole game. Switching between Samurai and Ninja becomes part of how fights work, and the larger areas give you space to prepare when things feel overwhelming. The story mostly stays out of the way, and loot management can get tiring, but combat stays rewarding once it comes together. It’s demanding, but it gives you room to figure things out without lowering the bar.
Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined takes a famously long adventure and makes it much easier to stick with. The island-by-island structure still drives the story, but the pacing feels smoother and easier to manage as you go. Combat stays easy to follow, vocations give you room to experiment, and exploration never turns into a slog. With its handcrafted, diorama-style look, Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined ends up being the most approachable way to finally see this journey through.
Cairn is a game that rewards taking your time and learning how the climb works instead of rushing through it. The moment-to-moment play feels deliberate, and progress comes from paying attention and adjusting as you go. There are a few small hiccups along the way, but they don’t take away from the overall experience. If you’re willing to meet it on its terms, Cairn delivers a climb that feels satisfying from start to finish.
I Hate This Place takes its time and asks you to meet it halfway. It’s not about constant action or big moments, but about moving carefully, reading situations, and letting the world do the talking. Some parts don’t hit as cleanly as they should, but the overall experience holds together because the game knows what kind of mood it’s aiming for. If you’re into slower horror that rewards patience and atmosphere, there’s a lot here that works.
Code Vein II builds on the first game in smart ways, with more flexible combat, a stronger focus on story, and a world that’s fun to spend time in. Technical issues and the lack of co-op hold it back a bit, but the core experience stays engaging thanks to how well everything comes together. It’s the kind of game that keeps you playing because there’s always another build to try or another path worth exploring.
Escape from Ever After feels like a game that knows what it’s trying to do and sticks the landing. It takes familiar turn-based RPG ideas and gives them a fun twist, with a story that’s self-aware without trying too hard to be clever. The combat stays interesting thanks to the timing-based mechanics, and the world has enough personality to keep you invested as you move through it.
Dead Take combines stellar acting and a sharp, satirical script to create a memorable, if short, psychological horror experience. While the puzzle mechanics and video editing features can feel shallow, the atmosphere and visual presentation are top-tier. It is a must-play for fans of narrative horror and FMV games.
MIO: Memories In Orbit is a game that gets better the more you play it. It’s at its best when you’re exploring, unlocking new ways to move, and slowly figuring out how everything fits together. Some parts can feel uneven, and a few moments drag more than they should, but the core experience is strong enough to keep you going.
