Tron: Catalyst
On the whole, Tron: Catalyst feels like a successor of sorts to the classic AA games from the Xbox 360 generation. It's a simple and fun action-adventure game that doesn't have any bloat, but it has a handful of notable problems that hold it back from greatness. Tron: Catalyst is...
Rematch
Back in 2017, French developer Sloclap released its first game, Absolver, an action-RPG with a heavy emphasis on grounded, physics-based melee combat. For its second project, Sloclap took those combat mechanics and refined them to near-perfection, delivering the kung fu movie love-letter Sifu in 2022. But three years later, Sloclap...
There's a lot more good than bad in RAIDOU Remastered, fortunately. It's a wonderful walk down memory lane for fans of the original, and a worthwhile excursion for newer Atlus fans, discovering the studio via games like Persona 3 Reload and Metaphor: ReFantazio. More than anything, this new-and-improved RAIDOU is...
FBC: Firebreak
Remedy already plans to deliver a good bit of fresh content to FBC: Firebreak in 2025, including two all-new game modes, which will hopefully be less tedious than what's currently on offer. But either way, Firebreak may be a bit of a wait-and-see situation: it doesn't feel like it has...
The Alters
It's hard to go into more detail about why The Alters is so great without spoiling the experience—it truly is a game that is best enjoyed with as few preconceived opinions as possible. What is more or less undeniable is The Alters' ingenuity, its clever and thoughtful narrative structure, and...
One look at Lost in Random: The Eternal Die is likely to draw comparisons between it and Supergiant's Hades, and while that comparison does hold water, it's also a bit reductive. Instead, Lost in Random: The Eternal Die uses one of the action roguelike genre's exemplars as a starting point...
Dune: Awakening
As an extension of a firmly established IP, Dune: Awakening has more elements it needs to nail that a traditional survival game simply wouldn't. While it is indeed important that it offers a solid survival MMO experience, any shortcomings when it comes to how it presents the world of Dune...
Survival Kids
Everything in Survival Kids technically works and the co-op support, while not implemented nearly as well as it could have been, is still appreciated. But the game is mind-numbingly boring most of the time and, at a staggering $49.99, it's impossible to recommend it to early Switch 2 adopters. There...
Mario Kart World
I am disappointed with Mario Kart World's Free Roam, but the game nails everything else. It's good for near-endless hours of entertainment, and it will definitely stay in my Switch 2 rotation for years to come. Mario Kart World is the best the series has ever looked or played and...
Fast Fusion
Then again, Fast Fusion is available at a budget price of $14.99. Compared to some other Switch 2 games, it's super cheap, and it definitely gives players their money's worth, even with the lack of proper online multiplayer and misguided progression. Racing game fans that need something a little different...
Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour takes place on giant versions of Switch 2 hardware. Players walk across massive Joy-Con 2 controllers, the system's touch screen, and various accessories, learning all about their functionality. Its basic concept brings to mind Astro's Playroom, which used 3D platformer gameplay to show off the...
Most telling about Nightreign is that those sentiments were not immediate but earned. At first, Nightreign feels almost antithetical to the methodical approach of FromSoftware's other titles. Nightreign is blindingly fast - offense is prioritized above all else, players have little control over how they "build" their characters thanks to...
