    Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends - Definitive Edition
    If you’ve never played Dynasty Warriors 8 before, this release is absolutely a must buy if you enjoy the Warriors games. If you’ve never played a Warriors game before, look into Fire Emblem Warriors or Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition. While those two games are overflowing with superb content, DYNASTY WARRIORS 8: Xtreme Legends Definitive Edition is the first non Nintendo Warriors release that is an easy recommendation for me not only for the great content but also in terms of how good it plays on the Switch.

    Atelier Arland Series Deluxe Pack
    While these ports should definitely have been handled with more care, the Deluxe Pack brings 3 fantastic Atelier games into a single discounted package. Each game should’ve cost less individually but the overall package with all three is definitely worth looking into if you’ve ever wanted to get into the Atelier franchise. I’m glad that the series is on a portable that more people own and one that has the potential to make the series finally have a breakout hit in the West.

    Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition
    It isn’t a fantastic experience but hopefully post launch patches improve the visuals and the framerate. If you want to play this docked, get it on another platform.

    Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition
    Fitting for a game called ‘Tales’ Vesperia spins a good yarn, but ultimately the game is showing its age.

    New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
    For newcomers who haven’t experienced it, this is still a very good game; one that’s aged well. But for returning players, there just isn't quite enough to warrant another go.

    Pic-a-Pix Pieces
    Pic-a-Pix Pieces is more of the same nonogram puzzles, with nothing new to bring to party. It's functional and simple, but don't expect anything more.

    Below
    Despite its frustrating refusal to teach you even the basics, Below’s sense of discovery is as good as anything already out there, and its gameplay is as deep as its name suggests.

    Omensight: Definitive Edition
    If you’re partial to a bit of hack ‘n’ slashing and fancy something a little different to the norm, you’ll find Omensight to be an enjoyable addition to the Switch’s catalogue of ports.

    Atelier Arland Series Deluxe Pack
    The Atelier Arland Series Deluxe Pack brings together 3 classic Atelier games for modern systems and while the ports could have been better, these are still some great and relaxing JRPGs.

    Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom
    There's so much to love about Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. From the beautiful visuals to the variety in combat and movement, there are so many reasons to give it a try.

    Borderlands 2 VR
    Borderlands 2 was always a phenomenal game, but having the option to play through the entire VR game with plenty of customisation to help with motion sickness helps out a lot.

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey: Story Arc 1 - Legacy of the First Blade
    Legacy of the First Blade is a mostly underwhelming first DLC that has some interesting story information for long term fans of the Assassin's Creed series.

    EVERSPACE: Stellar Edition
    The roguelike elements make this a perfect fit to portable pickup and play with a very lenient save system.

    The Missing: JJ Macfield and the Island of Memories
    The Missing’s story is one that everyone needs to experience. It is personal and very unique. A lot of the game looks great even in handheld mode but this could definitely have used a bit more time for the Switch version. It has a bit too many issues on Switch. If you haven’t played this and want to, look at the other platforms because in its current state, the performance issues and other annoyances make this a lesser version of a great game.

    Guacamelee! 2
    If you’ve not yet played Guacamelee! 2 on PS4, it’s an utter necessity to pick this up on the Switch. It plays so well, and the splendid mix of smooth gameplay, lovely art style, and everything in between make this a definite purchase.

    ABZU
    Playing on the Switch allows you to appreciate the game’s elegance whilst on the move, and playing ABZÛ on public transport can seriously chill you out and bring a wonderful calm to a busy day. It plays excellently, with no lag or compromises as far as the visuals go, and having headphones in is the best way to experience the catharsis of such a noteworthy game.

    GRIS
    As an audio and visual package, Gris is stunning. However some missteps in gameplay prevent it from being something special.

    Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden
    A unique, good-looking, intense experience that's more than worthy of existing in the same genre as an illustrious classic like XCOM.

    GODS Remastered
    I won’t disparage what GODS is and always was, which is quite simply one of the greatest of its time - but that denomination of era is crucially important here. Because judged up against its contemporaries, the original was a powerhouse - but there’s simply no real place for it in 2018.

    Katamari Damacy REROLL
    Katamari Damacy REROLL is a fantastic experience for people who have never experienced the game before but it is a pretty barebones port on PC.

    Earth Defense Force 5
    Earth Defense Force 5 is a fantastic game for fans of the series and a great starting point for newcomers looking for a B movie like experience with addictive gameplay.

    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
    By combining familiar gameplay with some new ideas, there's something in here for everyone. Smash Bros. is back and has never been better.

    Arca's Path VR
    Arca's Path is a simple game with some nice challenges and some nice level designs, and never becomes too difficult to allow all ages a chance to enjoy.

    Football Manager Touch 2019
    If you don’t own Football Manager Touch 2018 then this is the game you want. However, if you do own the previous game then this isn’t really worth the upgrade.

    Just Cause 4
    With its extreme weather scenarios and the familiar, over-the-top usage of Rico’s grapple gun, wingsuit and parachute, Just Cause 4 is the most ridiculous and best it has ever been.

    Warframe
    Warframe is a fantastic sci-fi shooter with a very consumer-friendly business model and a ton of free content.

    Steel Rats
    Mixing Sonic-style platforming with Trials-esque, inertia-driven gameplay, Steel Rats is a bold and often fun concept, but some awkward level design holds it back from matching the quality of its inspiration.

    WordHunters
    Even those who enjoy a word puzzle will find Wordhunters frustrating and dull. It lacks any spark, and should be avoided.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    RIDE 3
    Ride 3 is a big step up from its predecessor, with excellent handling and a huge array of racing styles that elevate it toward the top of the podium.

    WindJammers
    Windjammers is something I never thought I wanted until I played it. Having spent a decent amount of time on it across PS4 and Vita, I’m glad to have yet another indie I played often available on the Switch through such a great port.
