Bravely Default HD Remaster brings back one of the best 3DS games for the Switch 2 launch with few new features, but remains a great classic JRPG for fans of the genre. It's a shame it didn't receive support for new languages like Latin American Spanish and Portuguese.- Critical Hits

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, with updated visuals and gameplay, plays it safe and is a competent remake of one of Hideo Kojima’s greatest classics. However, its new ideas don’t always blend well with the old ones, which can create some oddities. Even so, this is a successful effort by Konami and should earn the company some credit among fans.- Critical Hits

Lost in Random: The Eternal Die combines the franchise’s peculiar aesthetic with solid rogue-like mechanics, offering a varied experience with strong replay value. Combat is strategic, build crafting is rich, and the challenges are fair and creative.- Critical Hits

Shotgun Cop Man is a fast-paced, straightforward, and humorous experience that relies on a creative mechanic to offer something different within the 2D platformer genre. While it lacks enemy variety and more robust challenges, the game delivers fun moments, especially for those looking for something light and casual.- Critical Hits

Tales of Berseria Remastered stands out for Velvet's dark story, with strong characters and a more mature tone that deviates from the standard JRPG formula. The combat remains very fun, fast-paced, and varied, even with some signs of age in the camera and lock-on. Exploration and dungeons are the weakest point, with simple and unremarkable maps. In the end, the remaster is well worth it for those who have never played it, but offers little new content for those already familiar with the original.- Critical Hits

Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is a genuinely funny and personal life simulator, but one that relies almost entirely on your creativity and willingness to put time into making Miis to actually be enjoyable, and even them it can get repetitive after some hours.- Critical Hits

REANIMAL is a short and dark experience that retains the DNA of Little Nightmares, relying on heavy atmosphere, simple puzzles, and terrifying monsters. Focusing on cooperative gameplay, the game stands out for its art direction and immersion, but suffers from technical polish, bugs, and limitations in the post-game. Still, it's worthwhile for fans of the genre.- Critical Hits

Rematch is a bold reinvention of football games by Sloclap, blending intense action, no-rules arcade gameplay, and the spirit of street matches into a unique and chaotic experience. Despite technical issues like unstable servers and the lack of cross-play at launch, the game stands out for its freedom, fast-paced rhythm, stylized visuals, and a creative concept that’s likely to appeal to those looking for something different from traditional genre formulas.- Critical Hits

Hogwarts Legacy on the Switch 2 is a significantly improved version compared to the original release on the first Switch, offering better visuals, stable performance, and near-zero loading times. While it still doesn’t match the technical level of the PS5 or Xbox Series X, the experience is now smooth and immersive, making the exploration of Hogwarts much more enjoyable.- Critical Hits

LUNAR Remastered Collection is a basic update of two RPGs in the best 1990s style, featuring beautiful animated cutscenes and charismatic casts. However, the difficulty of the battles may cause newer fans of the genre to take longer to appreciate the quality of the two available games.- Critical Hits

Dying Light: The Beast is a very fun game with a story that keeps you engaged in playing through the campaign, but it has two small issues that could be easily fixed and would make the game even better: the campaign progression that suddenly requires levels that are too high, and the artificial intelligence of the volatiles in campaign missions. Other than that, it’s a game that will greatly please those who played the original.- Critical Hits

Tales of Graces f Remastered is an updated version of a series entry that originated on the Wii, but only reached the West via PlayStation 3.

Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter is a game I almost gave up on during the first hour, but after getting past that initial difficulty wall, it became increasingly fun and enjoyable, and I really liked my journey with Arlo and his companions.- Critical Hits

Virtua Fighter 5 REVO is an essential title for fans of the series and players who enjoy technical and well-balanced fighting games. It doesn’t try to reinvent the formula but refines what was already excellent. Now, we can only hope that this franchise revival is a sign that the next Virtua Fighter will arrive in full force.- Critical Hits

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 arrives on PC as the definitive version, delivering excellent performance and support for advanced technologies like AMD’s FSR 3.1 and Frame Generation. Even on mid-range hardware, the game runs at a stable 60 FPS, showcasing impressive optimization. However, some bugs affecting character rendering and enemy AI may hinder progression, making it advisable to wait for additional hotfixes before diving in.- Critical Hits

Virtuos and Bethesda nailed it in preserving the spirit of the game, but they could have gone further in fixing structural flaws. If you're a fan of Tamriel's adventures, you'll smile at every bug and laugh at every bizarre conversation between NPCs, so don't expect a flawless experience in here.- Critical Hits

Avowed offers fun combat, strong characters, and an engaging world, but falls short due to repetitive enemies, shallow narrative, and technical issues. Fans of The Outer Worlds will enjoy it, but don’t expect a new Baldur’s Gate 3 or Skyrim.- Critical Hits

Earthion is a very fun spaceship game that will certainly appeal to fans of classic titles from the golden age of the Mega Drive. It’s a bit short, but considering the classic continue and Game Over mechanics, you’ll have to work hard to see the game’s ending — and you’ll definitely enjoy the experience.- Critical Hits

Mafia: The Old Country doesn’t stand out for its campaign length, which could have been a bit longer. Still, in its 12-hour runtime, it offers a solid story and charismatic characters that will please fans of mafia-themed stories, even if the plot itself isn't particularly surprising.- Critical Hits

Kiwami 2 is a work that blends respect for the original with smart modernization. The graphical upgrades, smoother combat, and addition of new content make the experience more complete and accessible without compromising the soul that made Yakuza 2 so beloved. For those who played the original, the remake is a reunion filled with new details; for newcomers, it’s a great entry point into one of the franchise’s most memorable stories.- Critical Hits

Possessor(s) blends the grotesque, emotion, and exploration in a stylish 2D Metroidvania full of identity. Luca and Rhem’s journey stands out for its striking visuals and heavy combat that rewards precision. Even with difficulty spikes and a few progression stumbles, the game delivers a memorable experience and is well worth the attention of fans of the genre.- Critical Hits
