6 years after its original release, Ni No Kuni Remastered is still a beautiful J-RPG with great music and a moving story, that looks incredible in 4K resolution.

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse is the very same game from 2014 (even from the graphical side), with few improvements, like rumble HD. A fast port that Shantae's hardcore fans and newcomers will enjoy, but for all those that already played it on 3DS, Wii U, PC or Xbox One, there are better options out there, like Half-Genie Hero (also on Switch).

Tropical Freeze is an old school platform game, so refined in every aspect (difficulty, variety and visuals) that even released four years ago, it is still one of the best in its genre. The Switch version includes a new (easy) Funky mode and slightly better visuals, but it is still the same Wii U game

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.

As if possessed by the spirit of Masamune, Team Ninja has forged its finest work within the Nioh saga; a game as satisfying to play as it is deep in its systems. If Nioh 3 were a katana, it would be worthy of the shogun himself.

Prince of Persia returns in style with an exceptional adventure that excels in everything it sets out to do, that does everything so well that it is difficult to find fault with it and that you never want it to end. After many years missing, the Prince has returned, but he has returned as the king of action and platform games.

Pentiment is a graphic adventure like no other. We love the medieval setting and writing, but it is slow paced and not every player will enjoy its simple mechanics based on dialogues.

Bayonetta 3 delivers an impressive combat system, great variety in gameplay and a never ending surprises. It is not only one of the best Nintendo Switch games out there, but one of the best hack´n slash we´ve ever played.

BALL x PIT is pure fun, like Dead Cells, Hades II, and other roguelites that have hit all the right notes. Its design draws on classics such as Arkanoid and bullet hell shmups, and the truth is that the mix works and is incredibly addictive. Perhaps the weakest part is the Sim city management part, but it's not the core.

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.

Although the remastered work is correct, all the changes and additions (especially those from the International Zodiac Job System) make The Zodiac Age the definitive version of one of the most underrated and special Final Fantasy.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective gets a slightly poor remaster on Switch, PS4, Xbox and PC, but more than enough to rediscover a forgotten gem from the creator of Ace Attorney. The way it presents its puzzles are one of a king, and the story is gripping and unforgettable. Long live Sissel!

One of the most complete pinball games on the market, with 19 tables, lots of game modes (including career) and a strong online community element -choose your side of the Force- that make it one of the better pinball games on the market. Add all the Star Wars charm, characters, music... and sure you will fall in love if you try it.

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.

The arcade shooting "bullet hell" with roguelite elements results in an interesting proposal, that on its way to PC leaves an even more astounding technical exhibition. However, its difficulty and style may not be to the liking of all players, so if you hate challenging games and/or loops or repetitions, better think about another title.

Christian Whitehead deserves an ovation for bringing back a fast hedgehog who had been injured for a long while. Sonic Mania is a worthy heir to the five amazing 2D platformers the porcupine starred in on Mega Drive.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is the great adventure of the year, a game that breathes affection for the character and his classic films that we love so much. Prioritising the adventure, without abandoning the action is a great success, as well as not wanting to cover more than necessary.

Monster Hunter Stories 3 is the biggest step forward this sub-series has taken. We are looking at a grand and ambitious adventure in terms of its visuals, which significantly improves on the approach established by previous instalments. While it may not be an essential purchase, if you enjoy hunting, collecting and breeding, this is a great game to add to your collection.

Civilization VI is a great adaptation of the strategy classic for Nintendo Switch. Controls need some learning, but the game is deep and fun (and we love local multiplayer).

Resident Evil 7 changes direction from previous games. It goes back to its survival horror foundations: puzzle solving, exploration and avoiding enemies instead of confronting them. It feels great even for newcomers. And it is also the best game anyone can try on PSVR.

Crystal Dynamics makes a safe bet with a game that, even with his lack of evolution and difficulty, will make you feel like an adventurer exploring the unknown. We can't wait to know what the future holds for Ms. Croft.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade launches on PC half and year later since it was released on PS4, with an ultra polished version that shines with its spectacular graphics, even if it has the same virtues and "drawbacks" on the design and gameplay areas.

Its strategy gameplay is a lot of fun, and the adventure has a good length and lots of replay value. Image & Form tries something different from Dig and succeeds again with one of the best download-only games of the year for the 3DS.

Luigi's Mansion 3 is, without doubt, the best entry in the series. As simple as that. Levels are much more varied and visual astounding, a little delight that you can fully play alone or in coop mode, multiplayer modes aside. Its lovely sense of humor, the sympathy of the ghosts, and the 20+ hours to finish (more for the 100%) make the rest.

If you miss the times when playing video games meant sharing experiences and secrets with your friends and games in which every step was a discovery, then look no further: Dragon's Dogma 2 is the game with the most heart you will find.

A dream for any fan of mechs, with great visuals and spectacular fights. But the steep difficulty when challenging bosses might put off some players, specially those who aren't familiar with the Souls formula.

Dragon Quest XI Echoes of an Elusive Age is as much of an homage to the older Dragon Quest titles as it is a new step forward for the series. With a great story, a superb set of characters and loads of content to discover, Dragon Quest XI is one of the best JRPGs to come out in recent years.

An essential sequel for those who played Trails from Zero. The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure is charming despite the fact that it shows the passage of time in terms of graphics. Something that you won't notice once you dive back into the fantastic world and plot of this dilogy, accompanied by a combat that still feels stimulating.
