    Thomas Was Alone
    Not much has changed, but that’s a good thing. To tamper with the formula would be doing a disservice to the great work that first came to people’s attention, two years ago. If this gets the lonely quadrilateral in the hands of more folk, then that’s a good thing.

    Streets of Rage 4: Mr. X Nightmare
    Streets of Rage 4: Mr. X Nightmare offers three new fighters that all offer something different, and a great new mode in Survival.

    NieR: Automata
    Hands down, one of the smartest action titles Platinum Games has ever put out, with a rousing score and some of the best narrative ideas I’ve seen in a videogame.

    Dishonored 2
    Dishonored 2 is not without its issues, but they pale considerably against the empowering free-form stealth, exhilarating combat and immersive atmosphere. Rise up, take back what’s yours, and have a ball doing it.

    Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration
    There's simply no denying that this is an exceptional package, and although it may be a year overdue, it was absolutely worth the wait.

    Hyper Light Drifter
    Hyper Light Drifter is a gorgeous experience that everyone needs to play but keep the performance issues in mind before you get the Switch version.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag
    It’s yet another example of what the 360 and PS3 are capable of – a genuinely stunning creation that packs 40 to 50 hours of content into a beautiful, compelling world that begs to be explored.

    The Last of Us: Left Behind
    Truly wonderful sections of youthful exuberance give way to bleak moments of horror and desperation. Two hours may not seem all that long, but the impact Left Behind has will be with you for hours afterwards.

    Mikey Hooks
    The controls are spot on and the levels are short enough for quick bursts of play. I would have liked to see a bit more variety in the levels and some actual challenge, but there’s a foundation here that BeaverTap Games can easily work on for future Mikey games.

    Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania
    Dead Cells was always compared to Castlevania, and having the two meet in this way with such reverence on the part of Motion Twin is weirdly heartwarming.

    Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
    Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is the game you've been waiting for, filled with stunning visuals, magnificent gameplay, and so much more.

    XCOM 2
    It’s a game that creates moments you’ll remember with characters you’ve created and care about and is quite possibly the best example of its genre to date.

    XCOM: Enemy Within
    Small annoyances aside, Firaxis have taken a great game and made it brilliant. There’s so much content and so much to see and do in Enemy Within that one playthrough is unlikely to do it.

    • 85 Critic Score
    Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition
    Divinity: Original Sin is a massively complex PC title skilfully repurposed for console gamepads. It's deep, compelling, and fun, but not for the casual crowd.

    Horizon Forbidden West
    Horizon Forbidden West is a masterpiece. With a gripping story and a world ripe for exploration, you won't be disappointed.

    Marble It Up! Ultra
    Marble It Up! Ultra is good old fashioned ball rolling fun, and if racing past obstacles is your idea of a good time then you're in luck.

    Mullet MadJack
    Mullet Madjack is a fantastic boomer shooter, with Roguelike elements and loads of fresh mechanics that mean you'll never get bored.

    Pokemon Y
    Unquestionably the finest Pokémon game for years, Y offers a huge challenge in many other ways than just the battles – and there is so much to enjoy.

    Deathloop
    Deathloop is a magnificently unstructured FPS filled with loads of weapons and abilities that never stops being fun.

    Ori and the Blind Forest
    A staggeringly beautiful puzzle-platformer that remains a masterpiece despite occasional spikes of difficulty.

    The Talos Principle 2
    Whether you played the original or not, The Talos Principle 2 is still a drop dead gorgeous, incredibly challenging puzzle game.

    The Room Two
    The Room Two is an essential title that every gamer should make it their mission to experience.

    Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
    Yet again, Miles Morales on Steam Deck and PC is another PlayStation triumph, with the only real negative the fact that it has longer loading times than on PS5.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Metroid Dread
    Metroid Dread is nearly the perfect return for Samus, and only some difficulty spikes rain on the parade. This is a tight, responsive 2D Metroid experience that constantly impresses and surprises in equal measure and is the perfect way to launch the new Switch model.

    Super Mario Maker 2
    Despite the multiplayer being slightly underwhelming, the new creation tools, single player story, and addition of Super Mario 3D World make Super Mario Maker 2 a fantastic overall package.

    Slay the Spire
    Slay the Spire is a hugely enjoyable single-player deck-builder that feels genuinely unique in its genre.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Shogun Showdown
    Shogun Showdown is a cracking game that lures you in nicely with its simplicity but eventually becomes a rather complex beast with a lot of very well thought-out moving parts.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Grapple Dogs: Cosmic Canines
    Grapple Dogs: Cosmic Canines is a delightful 2D platformer, with slick swinging gameplay and loads of lovely collectibles to gather.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Monster Hunter Rise
    Monster Hunter Rise brings enough quality of life improvements that it’s arguably better than World was at launch. A strong line-up of monsters, loads of stuff to grind through, and the series’ highest level of accessibility to date make Rise one of the Switch’s best games and an absolute must-have for series fans.
