Comparisons between The Blood of Dawnwalker and The Witcher 3 are inevitable, but it has nothing to fear -even when faced with Geralt's best adventure- because Rebel Wolves' game is excellent. It offers an open world full of secrets and quests—all of them interesting—and the ability to forge a narrative however we want to navigate this world of horror, fantasy, and political intrigue. It has some technical issues, and not all of its mechanics work as well as they could, but it is undoubtedly one of the best games of the year.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a game that has surprised us immensely. It manages to adapt the franchise to modern standards without losing its identity or its dark fantasy atmosphere. The depth of its combat system, the spectacular nature of its boss fights, and the meticulous work on the animation and Japanese folklore more than compensate for minor aspects such as the repetitiveness of some side quests. Despite this, Onimusha: Way of the Sword—unexpectedly—is easily one of the best games we've played in 2026.

Star Wars Zero Company successfully brings turn-based combat to the Star Wars universe, and this time it shines thanks to the depth of squad management, the variety of combat abilities, and the integration of exploration moments. These are enriched by the development of relationships between crew members, and the demanding nature of its combat systems provides an entertaining and challenging experience; something fundamental in a game of this genre.

Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters is a clear evolution of what we saw in RoNC. The game's pace, the replacement of the rock-paper-scissors system with reaction-time-based gameplay, the inclusion of mechanics like the Chain System, and the ability to directly control goalkeepers in shooting duels address many of the previous installment's shortcomings. Similarly, the faithful adaptation of the World Youth arc and the quality and direction of its cinematic cutscenes brilliantly capture the essence of Yōichi Takahashi's work. However, despite all its strengths, the game still suffers from some of the same flaws as the previous title. In terms of gameplay, the imbalance of certain defensive slides is frustrating, and we were unable to test the online multiplayer mode. Despite this, Tamsoft has solidified its position as the developer that has best adapted Captain Tsubasa to a video game in over 20 years.

While short on additional content, flawlessly adapts MGS4 and brings back another game from the franchise that had been lost in time (Ghost Babel). Added to this is the inclusion of Peace Walker and other content such as guides and scripts, giving it added value for both new players. However, it's important to note that—with the exception of the Game Boy game—prior knowledge of the franchise is required to fully enjoy the two canonical games included in this collection.

I really enjoyed my time with Future Knight and I'm already playing it again to try and unlock the harder achievements simply because it's so much fun. The old LCD console aesthetic is wonderful, as is the gameplay, and the vintage anime style combined with the absurd plot was incredibly entertaining. I highly recommend it to nostalgic gamers, fans of 2D action-platformers, and anyone who wants to experience the charm of retro gaming.

Even ignoring the Metroidvania elements that don't work in a linear action title like this, Akatori isn't a good game. While visually appealing thanks to its beautiful pixel art and some interesting 3D backgrounds, the gameplay leaves much to be desired. It has absurd, non-functional mechanics, repetitive enemies, inconsistent level design, and dialogue so clunky it's painful to read. There are elements with real potential, and you can find some fun in its six-hour runtime, but there are many better games in the genre.

Beast of Reincarnation isn't a bad game. In fact, thanks to its combat system and some aesthetic elements, I'd say it's good. But it's not a great game. Its best ideas are wasted, its world is very derivative, its narrative has terrible pacing, and it can eventually become repetitive. I'm sure many players will love Emma's relationship with Kuu and will get a lot of enjoyment out of their encounters with golems and creatures, but we've seen all of this before, and better.

The concept of running people over to turn them into enemies of an isekai heroine is as absurd as it is fitting for an adventure as funny and over-the-top as Truck-kun is Supporting Me from Another World. This indie game is short and doesn't boast impressive technical aspects, but it offers tons of fun and very likeable characters that serve as a perfect parody of the 'isekai' genre that currently saturates the world of manga and anime.

Endless Ragnarok is a substantial expansion that significantly expands upon the combat systems, character build options, and advanced quest offerings of the 2014 game. However, the narrative weight of this DLC is not comparable to the number of quality-of-life improvements and new advanced quests. Thanks to this, Granblue Fantasy: Relink is more appealing than ever to new players, and its DLC provides a new reason for those who have already completed the game to return—once again—to Cygames' universe.

Dead Weight's pixel art and fast-paced combat system are its main strengths and may be enough to please some players, but balance issues, the tedium of repeatedly replaying the initial levels, and a wasted lore meant I had no interest in returning after defeating the three bosses. Even so, there's still some fun to be found in its quick, turn-based tactical battles.

The Mermaid Mask is an excellent detective adventure with a well-crafted narrative full of mysteries, memorable characters, fun puzzles, and plenty of personality. Some pacing issues in the first half and a spanish translation that omits a few details detract from the experience, but it's well worth immersing yourself in the mysteries of the submarine Mortuga alongside Grimoire and Sally.

Echoes of Aincrad faithfully recreates the visual universe of Sword Art Online and offers a functional combat system with extensive equipment optimization possibilities. Its smooth performance—using Unreal Engine 5—and the polished aesthetic of its main environments demonstrate a significant improvement in production compared to previous installments in the franchise. However, this new SAO is limited by a monotonous mission design, an exploration system restricted by invisible barriers, and a marked reuse of enemies and bosses. So, unless you're a die-hard fan of Reki Kawahara's work, it's difficult to overlook some of its shortcomings.

Star Fox is back, and this remake perfectly understands the strengths of the original while perhaps overlooking its weaknesses. Those who played the original on the Nintendo 64 will find the action familiar, while new players, despite the somewhat awkward controls, will enjoy the characters and the adventure. Although it feels short, even with its replay value, it's a must-have for the Switch 2, and if you're in Latin America, you'll appreciate the excellent localization and voice acting.

Denshattack! is undoubtedly one of the best games of 2026. This colorful and intense train adventure had me smiling the entire time as I overcame impossible obstacles, faced giant robots, and turned my rivals into allies like something out of a shonen anime. It's a wonderful experience filled with great music and spectacular moments that you simply can't miss.

548 Rhythm Heaven Groove was a long-awaited title for Nintendo's first Switch console, and it doesn't disappoint fans of the rhythm game series. Its difficulty remains consistent, if not increased, in the later levels compared to previous installments, while visually it retains its distinctive art style so familiar from WarioWare games. While unlocking the basic minigames takes a few hours, unlocking all the additional content demands truly honed skills, which encourages replayability.

Despite its dated graphics, eFootball Kick-Off! leaves a positive impression and feels like a true successor to PES. It revives a style of football games where the greatest reward lies not off the pitch, but on it. Every match is fun, the pace keeps you playing, and the World Cup setting makes this installment an excellent excuse to play on Nintendo Switch 2.

While it's debatable whether a remake of a good game that's still readily available was truly necessary, there's no doubt that Assassin's Creed Black Flag benefits greatly from the improvements in this 'Resynced' version. It looks and plays better than ever, but the game's main strengths remain those inherited from the original: an excellent story that skillfully handles its philosophical themes and a superb setting that begs to be explored. It also inherits the original's flaws, such as poor enemy AI and mechanics that can become repetitive, but that doesn't detract from it being a wonderful experience.

R-Type Dimensions III is a faithful restoration of a classic shoot 'em up, featuring local co-op, alternative soundtracks, and real-time graphical overlays. This undoubtedly demonstrates the effort put in by its development team. However, the game retains design philosophies that clash with the new additions. Furthermore, the price feels high considering the volume of improvements and the limited, if not nonexistent, additional content. Thus, the title functions adequately as a game for shoot 'em up enthusiasts who aren't put off by the punishing nature and difficulty levels, which reduce its appeal for players seeking a balanced and less unfair experience.

Ninja Master's stands out for its serious atmosphere and the combination of combat mechanics for fighting with or without weapons. Its gameplay rewards attacking—due to the high damage inflicted—although the combos are simple and can become repetitive, or even a real headache when facing the GPU. This version, which joins the list of "hidden gems" in the NEO GEO Premium Selection, features online and training modes. It's not as polished as the greats of its era, but its classic art style, musical atmosphere, and dark tone are undoubtedly points to consider for trying one of the niche fighting games of the 90s in 2026.
