Ghost of Yotei is a consummate revenge game with which Sucker Punch dares to present an open world with good ideas that come close to fitting together perfectly. Dazzling in its visuals, powerful in its narrative, and sharp in its combat. Yotei is almost as precise as a katana slash.

Pac-Man World Re-Pac 2 revives the classic from the PS2 era and updates it with major improvements. Its visuals can’t fully hide the fact that the original is over 20 years old, and the controls could be tighter, but it more than makes up for it with excellent gameplay, a challenging progression, and a great sense of humor.

More fun, bigger, sexier, and even more addictive than its predecessor, Hades II is pure witchcraft. As a game, it excels in every department, and as a sequel, it strikes a great balance between familiarity and significant new features... But I wish I could stop time so I could keep playing forever.

Final Fantasy Tactics returns in a bittersweet way: it remains a true SRPG gem, with a world, characters, and story that dwarf even current titles. But the lack of a Spanish translation, after so many years, hurts more than seeing your favorite character betrayed.

Konami has been brave in rethinking the series' setting and certain gameplay schemes, and for us, the move has paid off. Silent Hill F is a game that draws you in irresistibly and even compels you to replay it. Based on its atmosphere, gameplay, and plot, it's a true horror hit in 2025.

Dying Light The Beast doesn't reinvent the wheel or introduce changes that revolutionize the series, but it polishes many aspects, enriches others, and adds enough new features (new map, greater vehicle weight, etc.) to make the experience feel fresh, and it succeeds. And, most importantly, it's still as fun as it was on the first day.

With Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds, Sonic Team delivers its most dazzling entry yet — a game that puts fun first for players of all ages, whether casual fans or seasoned racers. A bit more content could have elevated it further, but it still manages to be highly enjoyable both solo and with friends.

You can tell there's a big effort to give personality to the main fights and we are thankful for some new ideas, but all of this is scattered among some more derivative sidequests and objetives. If you got the DLC for free with your pre-order, give it a chance. If you have to pay 25 bucks for it... Maybe it's wiser to wait for a discount.

If you're into roguelikes, you're likely to enjoy DK Isle + Emerald Rush, with its secrets and unlockables, although those who don't see the appeal of this gameplay formula may find it a little lacking in new content. At least it has plenty of nods and curiosities for fans of the series.

Hollow Knight Silksong is an extraordinary achievement in video gaming, an unforgettable work born from an unparalleled creative conglomerate. Silksong is the refinement of a masterpiece.

Borderlands 4 establishes itself as a well-rounded entry that offers updated and tremendously fun gameplay. A lackluster campaign and a somewhat generic open world prevent it from reaching its full potential, but this is a looter shooter capable of standing alongside the best in the genre.

One of the most risky, surreal and unclassifiable adventures we've seen. Ideal for those who love the movies by Lynch or Aronofsky. Its technical issues burden the experience, but you still should play this twisted and dark vision of the world.

The Star Wars Outlaws port shines on Nintendo Switch 2 with technical quality that rivals other platforms, offering the appeal of being able to play anywhere, and with better results than on devices such as Steam Deck. This port raises the bar for what Nintendo Switch 2 can do, even if it is at 30 fps.

NBA 2K26 offers interesting additions in terms of gameplay while further refining its audiovisual aspects. However, in terms of modes, it doesn't offer much and continues to be weighed down by the usual problems. If you avoid falling into its tedious systems and microtransactions, you'll find yourself with a good basketball game.

Despite its technical flaws, its chessy dialogue, its repetitive missions... despite everything, Daemon X Machina Titanic Scion has managed to entertain me with its fun battles and its countless options for turning us into a machine of mass destruction, although it is far from being the mecha game we were hoping for.

Even with all its flaws, Lost Soul Aside is a great action game that perfectly understands the key elements of hack-and-slash gameplay: depth, combos, and constant spectacle. If you love the genre and have been lamenting its absence for years, here's the game that paves the way for its return.

The leap into action has been a fabulous success for Bloober, who has created another adventure that every science fiction and horror fan should try.

Metal Eden is a relentless first-person shooter, defined by the versatility of its protagonist, turning every skirmish into a showcase of skill. Though its length is brief and its visuals are not AAA-level, it manages to shine thanks to its gameplay and an engaging story.

With its combination of Souls-like combat, unguided exploration, Resident Evil-esque puzzles, and Zelda-esque dungeon crawling, Hell is Us is one of the most gritty, challenging, and surprising experiences of the year.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + The Astral World is the definitive version of one of the most creative platformers of recent years. New levels, necessary technical improvements, and more content overall reinforce an already well-rounded game. No matter how much he eats, Kirby never gets full.

The gameplay changes are minimal, but the facelift and multiplayer options mean that a game that redefined action two decades ago is still as fun in 2025 as it was back then. A great opportunity to revisit it or check it out if you've always been a Sony fan.

Joe Musashi re-emerges from the shadows to reclaim his title as a shinobi master with a smash-hit game that combines the depth and speed of modern hack-and-slash gameplay with the progression and arcade structure of classic titles. Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is one of the best 2D action games of 2025.

Konami hasn't taken too many risks with Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, a very conservative reworking of the PS2 classic. But they've managed to enhance the original game's strengths, as its gameplay, setting, story, and characters still have the same impact in 2025 as they did 20 years ago.

Drag x Drive's control scheme and gameplay concept are solid and they work really well. Nevertheless, we have our doubts about the game's appeal in the long run: we want more environments, tournaments and local multiplayer.

Mafia: The Old Country offers a remarkable narrative and atmospheric mob drama, hampered by uneven technical skills. While its gameplay is a bit simplistic, it should satisfy those looking for a straightforward, fast-paced, and enjoyable game.

Every single game is a must on its own, but the whole package is truly awesome. A new sample of M2's fine crafting in game preservation.

In our opinion, The Hinokami Chronicles 2 is a very pleasant improvement on the first Kimetsu no Yaiba-based fighting game, although it still has some minor issues with performance and design. However, it's a good game for fans of the series, even if it's the one that should have been released in 2021.

The Game Kitchen shows its love for the golden age of 16-bit action with an irresistible game, featuring fabulous design and pace.

Grounded 2 is almost the ultimate survival game featuring tiny teenagers who have lost their way in a park. It retains the best features of the original and adds cool new elements such as the buggies, but it could be even better if the technical glitches were fixed and the pace of future updates was maintained. [Early Access Score = 84]

Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game is quite simple as a social simulator, because of its simple mechanics and its monotonous gameplay loop, but it gets to make you feel like a hobbit, with your heart lying in peace and quiet and good tilled earth.

Wild Hearts S breaks the streak of good ports for Nintendo Switch 2 with a title that has its ups and downs: it improves performance compared to other platforms, even without reaching a steady 60 fps (30 in handheld mode, 40-60 in dock mode), at the cost of a significant drop in graphics quality that may be a dealbreaker for some players.

Super Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV is Nintendo's most complete party game, but debuts on Nintendo Switch 2 with some “buts” and questionable decisions, such as not having technically improved the Switch game or a very limited GameShare option. But make no mistake: it's still the king of the party.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers does a lot of things right and manages to stand out in a genre as crowded as soulslike games, but it also tries to take on too much, and that ends up costing it. In any case, fans of the genre (and especially of games like Bloodborne, Sekiro, or even Black Myth: Wukong) shouldn't hesitate.

A new sample of spanish creativity and craftmanship in horror games. It offers some great ideas and executes them well. Maybe some puzzles are too obscure and the final stretch is a bit too "iconoclast", but the overall experience is truly surprising.

Although Pac-Man has starred in games across a wide variety of genres, in 2025 he adds another notch to his revolver: his first Metroidvania succeeds in combining the foundations of the genre with ideas from Toru Iwatani's creation and souls-like touches. The result is an entertaining, enjoyable game that's hard to put down. And it also comes with a free upgrade to Switch 2.

RoboCop: Rogue City Unfinished Business feels as fun as the first game by offering interesting additions that reinforce the affection for the 1980s cyborg cop. However, the feeling of repetition and lack of variety persists despite the new features. In addition, its technical flaws and bugs weigh down the final result more than necessary.

As the song goes, “Donkey Kong is here” and he’s here ready to rock the boat. The gorilla’s new adventure boasts being one of the first must-have games for Nintendo Switch 2 and a title on par with the Japanese company’s greatest series. This is the kind of “kongtent” that a new console deserves.

Ready or Not is a first person shooter that hits the mark by offering a realistic and bloody vision of the criminal world. Its varied and numerous missions will keep you glued to the controller in this PS5 and Xbox X Series X|S version that establishes itself as a good port for one of the games that have most refreshed the genre recently.

If you're going to play it on Nintendo Switch, make sure it's in portable mode and without Bluetooth headphones: this way you'll enjoy two unique gems of rhythm and action as their creators conceived it. A pity that the input lag calibration on TV is so archaic, so trial and error, because it can easily make you despair...

Despite the ill-advisedness of some changes, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is an entertaining game, which successfully updates the graphics and gameplay details, although it leaves the aftertaste that “more” could have been done, especially with the soundtrack, the original THPS4 campaign and the multiplayer.

No Man's Sky debuts on Nintendo Switch 2 with a very solid port, both visually and technically, which also comes with all the updates included, multiplayer and options that were not possible on Switch 1, such as touch and gyroscope controls. And as icing on the cake, at no additional cost if you already had it on Switch 1. Isn't it great?

With its numerous improvements, Death Stranding 2 finds the ideal balance between stick and rope, between shooting and walking, between action and stealth. Hideo Kojima thus comes full circle, completing the game he wasn’t allowed to finish 10 years ago.

We really love Slocap's unique concepto of football, one that's truly different to the usual FIFAs and Pros. When the matches "connect", they really are irresistible, but the game desperately needs more options and modes, and a more solid online performance.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess for Nintendo Switch 2 is a remarkable port for one of the hidden gems of 2024 and one of Capcom's games with more personality. While there are some cuts in graphics and optimization, the action and strategy proposal is enjoyed just as well as on other platforms.

Atlus's archaeological work brings back a gem from the PS2 era. Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army is the definitive version of the classic — an excellent remaster that preserves everything that made the original game special. A must-play for Megami Tensei fans and anyone looking to dive into the series.

Hitman World of Assassination comes to Nintendo Switch 2 with some problems that prevent it from displaying its full potential, such as the inconsistent frame rate, even if it comes without significant cuts and with an superb visual quality, especially noticeable in portable mode. Hopefully they fix it soon, because it's a great game.

FBC Firebreak is a multiplayer game with good ideas and a great atmosphere that brings the Control universe back. Although it could bring more content, what it offers refreshes the cooperative genre with friends. It's not your typical first person shooter, thankfully.

Stellar Blade continues to be the spectacular adventure we enjoyed on PS5, in 2024, but updated with many more visual options, from 4K resolution and high frame rates to image scaling and more frames with DLSS, and a good performance. Of course, the aspects of the game that could be improved are still untouched here.

Hogwarts Legacy finally has a version for a Nintendo console that has nothing to envy to the rest, neither in graphics, nor in performance, nor in fun. It's shame that there are no new content or that the physical version is a Game-Key Card, but except for that, it is a good port of a fun game that all Potterheads will enjoy.

If you enjoy grand strategy games and are passionate about the Sengoku period, Nobunaga's Ambition: Awakening has exactly what you're looking for. Plus, the Switch 2 version controls wonderfully thanks to the mouse mode. Keep in mind, though, that this title has a very high learning curve and, unfortunately, is only available in English.

The new version for Nintendo Switch 2 does not bring major improvements, but Sonic X Shadow Generations is one of the best and most complete platformers of the 35-year history of the blue hedgehog, thanks to its fusion of 2D and 3D elements from the times of Mega Drive and Dreamcast, two of Sega's best consoles... and of history.

Yakuza 0 Director's Cut establishes itself as an attractive edition and a great launch game for Nintendo Switch 2. The possibility of reviving one of the best titles of the saga (now with Spanish texts) is enough to give it a chance, although it could have offered some other weighty novelty or “quality of life” improvement.

Warhammer 40K Space Marine Master Crafted Edition is the best version of the cult classic shooter, but this remastered version offers a remastering job that falls short. You'll enjoy it if you've never played it, but if you did back in the day, there's little here to tempt you back to the title.

It may not be the flashiest game for a console launch, but Bravely Default remains a JRPG gem, and being able to play it on a modern system with welcome improvements is reason enough to (re)discover the story of the Warriors of Light.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma manages to make the sum of its parts evolve a saga with several palpable problems. Some of these obstacles are still there, but anyone who wants a management and combat game with content has here a worthy representative... As long as you can overlook its deficient technical section.

An outstanding speed game that, although not the most complete in the world in terms of modes and options, puts at your fingertips a torrent of speed and adrenaline for very little money, and with interesting options like GameShare. Without any doubt, one of the first Switch 2 must-haves.

CD Projekt demonstrates what Nintendo's new console is capable of with a fantastic port that will serve as a benchmark for all third-party games coming to Switch 2. If you prefer to play on a handheld rather than a TV, this version of Cyberpunk 2077 lives up to its name: it's the ultimate edition.

Street Fighter 6 is the first great fighting game on Switch 2, which it's almost on par with other versions: very colorful and fluid graphics, even with cuts in detail, but it offers an equally fun experience, online included. Too bad that details such as the 30 fps in World Tour, prevent it from shining more.

Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour takes full advantage of the features and improvements of the new console, but the curious and particular didactic work of its proposal is hidden behind a payment barrier that goes against the intention of the game itself. You shouldn't have to pay to get to know your console.

Mario Kart World takes the best of the saga to a new level of quality. The life of Nintendo Switch 2 starts in style thanks to a colossal title, full of ideas, novelties and craziness that will never bore you. Fun in its purest form.

Split Fiction is still the same fun co-op adventure that, with minimal sacrifices, looks and plays great on Nintendo Switch 2 and, even better, goes the extra mile when it comes to offering options for sharing the adventure, including using GameShare with a Switch 1 that doesn't run the game natively. Bravo, Hazelight.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma manages to make the sum of its parts evolve a saga with several palpable problems. Some of these obstacles are still there, but anyone who wants a management and combat game with content has here a worthy representative... As long as you can overlook its deficient technical section.

Rita's Revenge is a great beat'em up and one of the best games based on the series. It can be accused of being a little short or that it could have a greater variety of enemies, but its levels with vehicles, the cooperative for 6 or how well the team have taken advantage of the original material gives it a plus that few Power Rangers games have.

The Siege and the Sandfox is a unique combination of metroidvania and stealth, boasting some great ideas, but the poor execution of several of its elements results in a rather gritty mix.

Its setting and story will suffice to attract you, although it's not a major competitor in terms of gameplay or technical power.

Ghost Town is one of the best adventures with puzzles that you can enjoy right now on Meta Quest. Its esoteric touch and great atmosphere, which don't look for player's jump scares, along with its enjoyable gameplay and puzzles, make it a must for fans of the genre, although it does suffer from being quite short.

Elden Ring Nightreign may be the hardest game FromSoftware has ever made, but not because of its massive bosses or all the mechanics you need to understand to beat the games, but because to enjoy it properly you need to have friends; friends who are crazy about Souls.

F1 25 does not set the fastest lap in the saga, but it does bring substantial improvements in terms of driving compared to F1 24 and bothers to add interesting and well polished content such as Braking Point 3 or the management additions of My Team.

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon reaches its ambitious goal: to pick up the torch from Skyrim and Oblivion, delivering a game that looks the classics straight in the eye. Incredibly fun and varied, it offers total freedom to live all kinds of adventures in Avalon, and its epic scale is a testament to the outstanding work of this independent team.

If you love taxing challenges with an indie flavour, you'll sure enjoy a new hit by the creators of Narita Boy.

It's always a joy to see a series as legendary as Onimusha return, especially when it's remastered in such a polished way as Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny. We've had a blast rediscovering Jubei's adventure more than 20 years later, thanks to new features like the new controls and the revamped graphics.

Blades of Fire is one of the most ambitious Spanish games of recent times and an action-packed offering worthy of applause for bringing a sense of renewal to a crowded gaming genre. With a combat system directly tied to role-playing elements and exploration, this title will captivate the most discerning action RPG fans.

Deliver At All Costs is one of those guilty pleasures we all have. It's a game that has aspects that can be bastly improved (story, cinematics, loading times...), but at the same time its proposal is so crazy and fun, that it's hard to put the controller down: you'll want to keep running errands and exploring its world.

While some games in this package aren't as well-rounded as the rest, the overall package is truly satisfying for any fighting fan. Enjoying epic battles in Alpha 3 or Capcom vs. SNK is still as intense as it was 25 years ago.

It's a shame that The Precinct ends up being an uneven title, perhaps due to some archaic systems, its predictable story, and its repetitive gameplay loop, because there was potential for so much more here. Still, fans of the GTA formula can find something to entertain them for a few hours, as long as they don't expect anything on the level of Rockstar.

DOOM: The Dark Ages reimagines the series' approach by offering unique and highly personalized gameplay supported by simple yet engaging additional systems. The Slayer's carnage is as immersive as ever, but the shadow of past installments partially overshadows the final result, which falls short of memorable status.

MotoGP 25 continues to offer (as in past installments) an ideal driving experience for any motorcycling lover, but neither its new modes, nor its apparent technical leap manage to improve the line of a saga that has been too long anchored in continuity.

A remarkable platforming game that the whole family can enjoy. Its only "sin" is being too similar to previous titles. It lacks a soul gameplay wise. Even so, it's a solid, beautiful adventure.

Days Gone is revving up again with a remaster that, while unnecessary and hard to justify, has reminded us why we loved the original game so much. If you weren't familiar with it and own a PS5, this is the perfect opportunity to discover this world of bikes and freaks.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is not the perfect remastering, but the way it manages to take you back to one of the most acclaimed RPGs in history makes you overlook its weaknesses to enjoy everything that made it legendary.

An interesting but uneven mix of classics. There are some tiny jewels in here, but other games make little sense. Including two of them only in Japanese is a really lazy move.

Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree establishes itself as a truly remarkable soulsvania that, without reaching heights of excellence, manages to stand out above many other titles thanks to a solid combination of combat, narrative and visual design.

I don't know if there the ultimate arcade racing game exists, but Forza Horizon 5 is the closest thing to that definition. It has it all, from a captivating open world to more options, competitions, events and cars than you can imagine. It's the perfect “playground” for any speed fan, and on PS5, occasional stuttering aside, performs great.

Using the classics as a canvas, Sandfall Interactive has painted the modern turn-based RPG we've been dreaming of for years. And, like all great paintings, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 will remain etched in our memory for a long, long time.

It may not be the most innovative or spectacular game on the scene today, but it certainly has a clear vision of what it wants to present, and it delivers solidly. If you're looking for classic fights with a slightly modern twist, you can say "okay" like Terry Bogard here.

DONTNOD shows off its narrative muscle with an interesting proposal that, without great playable novelties, engages. While the first tape extends too much in showing all the cards, the second seems to be in a hurry to close everything quickly (it lasts half). Even that doesn't stop it from being a game that DONTNOD fans will enjoy, the rest.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is one of the best adventures that the video game has given us in a long time. Despite not being a perfect game, what MachineGames leaves us is a work of great quality; which now receives interesting improvements in PS5 and PS5 Pro to boost its technical section.

Commandos Origins is, without a doubt, a love letter to the franchise, with familiar sensations and a modern touch. Even so, its ruthless design and some technical flaws make it hard to recommend to the general audience. If you are a hardcore stealth gamer, you should definitively check it out.

Star Overdrive follows the creative path of the last two Zelda games and adds a hoverboard to the formula to make it even more interesting. It has some design decisions that undermine the overall experience, but that doesn't mean skating around this alien-planet-shaped skatepark isn't really fun.

The Last of Us 2 arrives on PC without the first game's drama, with a fairly well-optimized port that is perfectly playable on portable devices. If you have a good graphic card, get ready for a really impressive visual spectacle, even without ray tracing, or other technical wizardry of the most modern GPUs.

South of Midnight establishes itself as a good platform adventure that is enhanced by a deeper than expected narrative and an absolutely captivating artwork. While the combat falls a bit short, we are faced with one of the Xbox games with the most personality of the generation.

The First Berserker: Khazan establishes itself as a good soulslike within the immense amount of games that the genre already treasures. It doesn't stand out in some areas, but its addictive combat system makes you forget its stumbles and deeply enjoy its successes.

Despite its limitations, AI Limit excels at what matters, which is why it's been a pleasant surprise. Obviously, it's not the best soulslike game in the world, nor the most innovative, but it doesn't need to to be as enjoyable as any other.

Similar to an English sky, some aspects of the game are too grey to shine among other titles. Even so, you can feel the interesting storywriting and some clever ideas that deserve a chance. You won't be amazed, but you will have a good time, my lad.

Bleach: Rebirth of Souls knows how to be spectacular without neglecting to offer a certain amount of gameplay complexity, something most 3D fighting games based on a manga/anime can't boast. But, unfortunately, the rest of the game is not up to par, and it doesn't manage to achieve the Bankai.

Even in early access, InZOI convinces with the amount of options, editors and possibilities it offers at launch, even more so with the promise of more content and improvements, and launching at a reasonable price. If the studio continues to improve what it already has achieved, and takes care with the DLC pricing policy, yes, The Sims can tremble. [Early Access Score = 85]

We don't think this game will change the mind of the non-believers of the franchise (it's the same formula, improved), but if you care just a bit about these games, you are in for a treat. It's an awe inspiring journey, full of secrets and surprises. You can tell the extra development time was well worth it.

If it was already a special game on Wii U, now, thanks to all the changes, new features, and—above all—the epilogue, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is also one of the best JRPGs on Nintendo Switch. An adventure as colossal as a giant robot and as unforgettable as an alien planet you don't want to leave.
