    A much more comfortable direction. The classic Kirby gameplay is enriched with some nice ideas such as the friend skills, which results in a fun, though for my taste a bit too shallow hopping-fight-puzzle-mix, which makes a good mood especially in multiplayer mode.

    The HD Collection offers nothing new and looks technically out of date. Only suitable for those who want to catch up on Dante's first performances.

    Bravo Team delivers some solid VR shooter action with few highlights and little content.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    The fastest, most spectacular and most beautiful action game on the Nintendo Switch so far. Belongs in every collection.
    • 37 Metascore
    • 69 Critic Score
    Past Cure's mix of stealth and action is fun. After a mediocre beginning, even the mysterious story picks up speed.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Brilliantly staged over-the-top fights, which should excite every action fan - even on Nintendo Switch.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Many of the puzzles are clever, and the battles have entertained me.

    Especially when I roam the open world and take my time, Kingdom Come makes for me a unique gaming experience that fuels a whole new interest in history.

    Dragon Quest Builders is a motivating game that skilfully combines block building with RPG elements.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Although the game lags far behind its potential, it's fun.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The action-adventure has never been better, never was it more meaningful than in this remake. With the help of a modern presentation aimed at promoting the strengths of the original and not just obscuring legacies, the Bluepoint Games developers have managed to bring the feel to the PS4. Even those who have already killed all 16 colossi will find, here, a new level of melancholy, which was not felt on the PS2 or even the PS3.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    The pretty magic adventure runs out of breath quickly because it lacks creative peculiarity and above all motivating elements.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Sugar sweet, sophisticated 3D platformer, close the greats of the genre, with lots of creativity and great level design.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Solid railway company game in the style of Ascaron's economic simulations. Doesn't reinvent the wheel, but runs well.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Tactical martial arts simulation with an authentic atmosphere and great presentation, which has some minor problems regarding balancing and fighting on the ground.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    The series has never been so beautiful and accessible. Still, Monster Hunter World remains a challenging action game for grind-loving hunters.

    After a promising start, the Inpatient turns out to be a disappointment in almost all areas.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Even though Lost Sphear may not quite match the quality class of the SNES classic, the Tokyo RPG Factory is much closer to the big role model with their new game than it was in I am Setsuna.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    A clever color mixing puzzler with many new ideas and exciting puzzle mechanics, but quite weak on the narrative level.
    • 87 Metascore

    The great presentation is one thing. What makes Dragon Ball FighterZ so good is the fine-tuning of its mechanics and its thought-out balancing.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Good remaster of a trashy space opera with idiosyncratic charm that lacks demanding combat as well as variety in side-quests.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Brutally hard 2D-platformer with a bizarre setting and mainly aimed at fans of Super Meat Boy.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Mario Party: The Top 100 is a nice mini-game collection, which quickly runs out of steam despite the large selection.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 49 Critic Score
    The basic gameplay idea is solid, but due to the bad implementation the game barely escapes being a total write-off.

    I am confident that the developers will quickly patch the title into a better shape, and of course we will upgrade. [Provisional Score = 58]
    • 75 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    The controller feels a bit crisper than on PS4 and Xbox One and the camera settings negate one of my most annoying criticisms of the game.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 54 Critic Score
    For me, the curse of Osiris has no raison d'être. To raise the level cap, to introduce new items, to offer a mini raid - it does not need a 20 Euro DLC, that should be a free update! All the worse, that the campaign also turns out to be shockingly demanding and unimaginative.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Okami is not a perfect game, but it's close. Because it knows exactly what works in its world. It lets me experience a story full of meaningful mythology without imposing it on me.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    A quite passable arcade racer with licensed race cars and with cleary noticable free-to-play roots.
    • 83 Metascore

    The dynamics and versatility of the combat system are remarkable.

    Hidden Agenda is a nice interactive thriller, but it lacks finetuning regarding story and gameplay mechanics.
    • 84 Metascore

    A successful retelling with interesting extras, whose full potential unfolds only near the end of the game.

    I give preference to the switch version, because I can take it everywhere and barely compromise. Rockstar has delivered an impressive port here and even incorporated an intuitive touch screen control.
    • 79 Metascore

    Echo is not using its full potential, but the adaptive AI offers an interesting gameplay idea and a cool sci-fi story.

    Anything but dirt: Spintires is a fun off-road simulation for patient truck fans.

    While the technical part is quite convincing, the new Sonic lacks game depth and scope.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Despite limitations in graphics and operation, it's amazing that Doom works so well on the Switch, even in handheld mode. Personally, I would like to play such an impressive experience as Doom rather on the big TV, but luckily with the switch one has the choice.
    • 83 Metascore

    If somebody had asked me a few months ago how to make Horizon Zero Dawn even better, I probably would have said "just give me more". That's exactly what I got with The Frozen Wilds. My biggest criticism of The Frozen Wilds is that the story does not match the main game.

    Super Mario Odyssey is a platformer masterpiece full of surprises, jokes and ideas, and a must have for any switch owner. Video game magic...Nintendo has created a modern classic.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    GT Sport offers little for singleplayer as far as playtime and scope are concerned, but thanks to great driving physics and a good online mode it's still a recommended game.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    A wonderful fusion of Musou and Fire Emblem, fantastically balanced and with huge scope.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    The creators manage the balancing act between fantasy and science fiction really well, the environment is full of loving details and surprises.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A more than worthy sequel. Many inconveniences were eradicated, many shallow moments filled with playing depth. And so the successor has also become the somewhat better game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    The Evil Within 2 is not a small-scale indie production that can only appeal to a special target group with a certain form of phobia. As an expensive mainstream product it has to compromise. But I think this has been a wonderful success.

    The great controls increase immersion, but can't balance out the monotonous battles. Only recommended for DBZ fans.

    • 75 Critic Score
    No real alternative to the "big" FIFA 18, but a fast arcade kick in handheld mode.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Huge and challenging RPG with a great pawn system, but weaknesses in presentation and technology damage the overall impression.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 81 Critic Score
    Hob
    Hob is a fascinating mix of minimalistic and complex ideas that blend so seamlessly and organically that a coherent overall image emerges, not the least reminiscent of games such as The Legend of Zelda and Ico. The great focus on exploring without any explanation is great - although it is a bit unfortunate that Hob does not tell an interesting story.

    FIFA 18 reached me faster with its massive stadium atmosphere and the abundant improvements.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 89 Critic Score
    Clean port of one of the best platforms with a cool Kung Foot tournament mode. Only the asymmetrical co-op of the Wii U version is missing.

    This deluxe version of Pokémon Tekken manages to impress with new Pokémon and multiplayer modes, the single player mode is still missing variety however.
    • 72 Metascore

    Bloody retro shooter with flawed controls, but quite fun when played with friends.
    • 85 Metascore

    Extremely well playable anniversary of the Ys series with brisk action, which however has some serious dramaturgical weaknesses.

    We will puck you: the new 18th iceage delivers the best NHL game for years.

    Scope, staging, story: Destiny 2 is better than part 1 in every respect, but in the end it's more like an evolution than a revolution.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Monster Hunter Stories is a solid RPG for novice players of the series. Fans will miss the epic battles and the complex crafting.
    • 85 Metascore

    I was captivated and motivated by the first minute...Great reinterpretation, it captures the charm of the Game Boy original but is sensibly modernized and enhanced with own ideas.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Pillars is for me not only a game that revolves around souls or that captures the soul of a classic like Baldur's Gate, but primarily a game that has its very own, wonderful soul.

    In contrast to the first part, I can now recommend Knack 2 without any reservations.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Fantastic Mario Rabbids crossover with beautiful worlds, a deep character system and strategic battles. A switch must-buy.

    For fans of the series, this game is a small gift and a great opportunity to return. And if you have not yet come to this great game series, Kiwami is a suitable entry.

    Uncharted: The Lost Legacy is the Tomb Raider that I always wanted to have but didn't get because the reboots trimmed on gloom and action. It is a real blessing to stroll with Chloe and Nadine through the Indian ruins and do some daring climbing tours without banging hundreds of enemies every few minutes.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's an entertaining genre mix full of effects, but it loses its charm fast due to the narrow scope and modest replay value.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The fact that a large part of the levels are basically only remixes of popular classics does not bother me at all. On the contrary - it's the best levels, all in one game!
    • 81 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    It is so unique and so interesting that it can not be overlooked...Not without problems, but full of interesting ideas. That includes a multi-layered, charming and credible heroine.

    Level and puzzle design are neither challenging nor particularly creative.

    Shadow Tactics: Blade of the Shogun has completely captivated me.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    Innovative, but quite repetitive scary adventure. The blindness mechanism is fascinating, but its gameplay doesn't really shine.

    Star Trek fans should not miss this experience, but but the lack of scope and the problems left a bland taste in our mouths.

    Gameplay and visuals are impressive for a remaster and it's a great JRPG; however, it slightly disappoints regarding story and combat system.

    • 55 Critic Score
    It is a confused mess of superfluous mechanics, confused AI, unfinished approaches and monotonous Brawler gameplay. Valkyria Revolution is well-presented and well-written, but in the end, it is just a nice package for a game that has failed at its core.
    • 76 Metascore

    The game's depth is surprising, the fighters sympathetic and even after tens of battles, I'm trying to perfect my moves even further. With an almost nimble simplicity, Nintendo creates a genre representative that is especially suited for those who have not played a fighting game since Tekken 3.
    • 82 Metascore

    After the disappointing sixth installment, Tekken 7 has once again become a very good Tekken, positioning itself between Street Fighter 5 and the upside.
