    Doraemon: Story of Seasons - Friends of the Great Kingdom
    Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom is one of those Crossovers that complements both franchises. It is a game focused on lovers of Story of Seasons and farm simulators but with a plot twist. Fun and relaxing are the words that best define it.

    Way of the Hunter
    Way of the Hunter will take us to a vast region and complete a series of animal hunting missions. He has some great mechanical ideas while teaching us the real value of hunting. It is not the perfect game but lovers of this genre will appreciate it.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III
    The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III is a correct port that improves several graphical aspects, loads faster and has all the cosmetic DLC of the original game but is limited to transferring the essence of the PS4 game to PS5. It's still an interesting JRPG with a well-built world and memorable characters.

    The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV - The End of Saga
    The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV is an epic ending to a plot that involves several story arcs making it an overwhelming game. It has the same gameplay system, but some mechanics were adjusted to make it more balanced. It received the same treatment as the third part for PS5, without complications beyond the visual.

    Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero
    Phantom Brave: The Lost Hero is a recommended experience for those who enjoy challenging tactical RPG combat systems. While it doesn’t revolutionize the genre, its mix of various mechanics and gameplay systems makes it a worthy addition for the more patient players. It can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but those who stick with it will discover a fun and rewarding challenge.

    Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream
    Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream returns as one of the quirkiest life simulators in the genre. Unlike other titles, it bases its premise on random interactions between Miis, from which anything can happen. Although it lacks a bit more depth, it is a game with a lot of charm, but also very niche.

    High on Life
    High on Life is an FPS that focuses on making us laugh while enjoying the combat. The game manages to make us laugh in many of the conversations, with that Rick & Morty humor that Justin Roiland is known for. Could have had a little more depth to the gameplay, which makes it lame in this area.

    Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series
    Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series is a good opportunity to play again with the characters of our childhood. It's a much-needed remaster but it could have included better things for this generation.

    Killing Floor 3
    Killing Floor 3 goes straight to the point: mowing down hordes of enemies while upgrading along the way, which is always fun. However, it still feels like untapped potential lingers beneath the surface. Even so, it delivers a rewarding experience at times—especially when played with friends.

    The Callisto Protocol
    The Callisto Protocol immerses you in its world full of horror and gore to the bone combined with that wonderful photo-realism of the characters and environment. The gameplay is a pure Dead Space feeling but clunky. It has the features of a survival game but it still has a lot to implement. The game is more like a Josh Duhamel simulator.

    Metal Max Xeno Reborn
    Metal Max Xeno Reborn is that hidden gem that needs time to be discovered. It proposes the player to create his own story with loose fragments; It will keep you digging through the desert looking for upgrades, and its combat system will be quite a challenge.

    Until Dawn
    Until Dawn is an unnecessary remake because the original game still feels fresh, and it offers few new options. It has improved graphics, updated mechanics, and better accessibility options, but it's still the same game from ten years ago with a higher price tag. It's recommended for those who haven't played it, but it could have been a simple visual update at a lower price.

    Mario & Luigi: Brothership
    Mario & Luigi: Brotherhood is a solid game that brings humor and classic gameplay to the saga's fans. It is an entertaining option, even though it takes a while to show off its best features, but it is still a relaxing and captivating game with a very attracting visual.

    One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4
    One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 finally gets the update it needed to become the game fans were hoping for back in 2020. Beyond the DLC and upcoming content, it’s a solid musou experience with more than 40 playable characters. The gameplay holds up well, but the rushed, watered-down story—trying to cram hundreds of chapters into just a few hours—does drag it down a bit. Still, from a gameplay standpoint, it’s a very enjoyable experience.

    Remnant: From the Ashes
    This is a game with an interesting system that mixes third-person shooters with a Soulslike experience. Its procedural and weapon generation system makes it a very replayable and fun game. Graphically, the game on Switch looks good but it has long screen load times.

    Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble
    Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble is a new installment in the arcade series that builds on what it has previously offered. The new features, such as the Spin Dash which gives clean gameplay options alongside engaging mini-games, will excite diehard fans. The Switch is already beginning to show its age, but it still has nice, stable graphics.

    Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition
    Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition is a game aimed at those who like to be challenged. The controls can work against us but it is nevertheless enjoyable for individuals who enjoy pushing themselves.

    Valkyrie Elysium
    Valkyrie Elysium was supposed to be a major comeback for the franchise and it really tries. However, we have a game with good deep and fun gameplay but the story is largely wasted. The new players will feel good but we could have had something better.

    Need for Speed Unbound
    A totally cool game for racing games fans. With new ways of driving, in-race betting and enhanced challenges. Undoubtedly Need for Speed Unbound gave fans something they expected but sadly it's not perfect as it doesn't support all wheels which is a total waste.

    Guilty Gear -Strive- Nintendo Switch Edition
    Guilty Gear Strive is a visually stunning fighting game with demanding, technical, and fast-paced gameplay, featuring a roster of 28 characters now arriving on Nintendo Switch. It retains everything that makes it great on more powerful consoles, though with lower graphical quality. Still, it offers a generous amount of content for fighting game fans on Nintendo’s hybrid console.

    Deathbound
    Deathbound is a game in the style of the Soulslike genre, with a special mechanic that is to control many characters with different fighting styles. It has an interesting story and is easy to follow. It is quite challenging for fans of these games but the graphics are not the best.

    Cat Quest III
    Cat Quest III has a fun open world with a map packed with activities. Its story is merely an excuse and is a bit conservative but fans of the previous games will not be disappointed.

    Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth
    The JRPG Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth is brought to modern consoles so that those fans who are so fond of it can enjoy it. It is a game that has a sometimes tragic story but that keeps the player watching. It is very replayable due to the various endings it has. As a port, my complaint is that hardly any improvements are implemented.

    FANTASIAN Neo Dimension
    Fantasian: Neo Dimension is fun and will be loved by those who enjoy this type of RPG. However, the game has some flaws, such as its linear story and annoying random battles. Despite this, it is worth trying for what it represents to fans of the genre.

    Freedom Wars Remastered
    Freedom Wars Remastered is a great opportunity to revisit or discover a cult classic that blends frantic action with an intriguing social backdrop. While it’s not a perfect game, it offers countless hours of excitement, especially when playing with friends.

    Shadow Labyrinth
    Shadow Labyrinth is a strange Metroidvania (in the best possible way) that sets itself apart through numerous references to Bandai Namco’s history, not just as easter eggs, but as core gameplay elements. It features a challenging yet fair difficulty curve, though its cryptic story starts off slow. While the environments can feel a bit repetitive, the game still manages to be engaging throughout.

    Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra
    Dragon Ball: Gekishin Squadra is a bold move for the franchise, venturing into the MOBA genre with a result that works and is fun to play, but still needs a bit more refinement to reach its full potential. Improving character balance, refining the interface and adding more interaction with the environments. Still, fans of the series are going to enjoy it.

    Dragon Quest Treasures
    This is a spin-off of Dragon Quest 11 that will take us to explore a new world in search of (obviously) treasures. It will keep us fulfilling challenges and missions for a long time. Although its battle system is not deep, it is entertaining as we expand our raid with new members and monsters.

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes
    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes teleports us to those classic JRPG games from the 90s including its mechanics, graphics and story. This is a modest project and it is a great title with very outdated mechanics but true fans of the genre will love it.

    Starfield
    Starfield arrives on PS5 systems as a solid port, though it is a bit of a mixed bag. New content in the form of an expansion and fan-demanded gameplay improvements were implemented in this version, but on a technical level, it still suffers from the usual issues. Aside from the above, it is a game with the pure Bethesda hallmark.

    WWE 2K23
    WWE 2K23 feels pretty good with at least the two modes available to try. Slingshot technology makes the experience totally different. WarGames mode gives the game quite a fresh air where players can enjoy the challenges either single player or multiplayer. The graphics have been improved compared to the previous ones and we finally have a good optimization, better times when loading the screen without leaving aside an improved mechanic that makes us enjoy every wrestler.
