Whilst this by no means a bad collection, The Jackbox Party Pack 11 feels like one of the weaker releases when compared to earlier games in the series.

Jurassic World Evolution 3 is by far the best the series has been, with new attractions that help creativity to blossom, even if familiar issues appear.

Battle Suit Aces blends together everything from Gundam and Mass Effect to Yu-Gi-Oh, to create an RPG that absolutely must be played.

There will be those that aren't fans of its pace, but Keeper is a stunning game both visually and in the poignant story it tells.

While somewhat of a disappointing port, Persona 3 Reload on Switch is still one of the very best RPGs you could play in 2025.

Ninja Gaiden 4 is a prime example of how to offer varied combat and keep it evolving over the course of a game, with some stunning set pieces and endless brutality.

Yooka-Replaylee revitalizes the 2017 platformer with the care it always deserved. The remaster enhances visuals, refines controls, and introduces quality-of-life improvements that finally make exploration a joy. Its world is colorful, dense with secrets, and full of charming NPCs, though the main duo still lacks charisma. Some frame drops on PS5 keep it from perfection, but the smoother gameplay, cleaner camera, and added features make this the definitive version and a strong reminder of why 3D platformers still matter.

Fading Serenades is a cute and cosy delivery game, but the repetitive gameplay and constant back and forth across the map made me want to return it to sender.

Lumo 2 has some retro appeal and plenty of collectibles to gather scattered throughout its puzzle rooms, but the platforming just isn't great.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 will certainly appeal to the die-hard fans of its world, thanks to the story. Unfortunately though, it commits the cardinal sin of simply not being fun enough to play, and that's a difficult coffin to clamber back out of.

Ball x Pit is a game that I never want to stop playing, thanks to its clever fusion of Breakout bouncing and Roguelike randomness.

Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 brings two absolute classics to the Switch 2, with improved visuals and a whole lot of creative stages to play.

If you want a game you can jump into for an hour of stress-free grinding, you could do worse than Out of Time.

Katanaut is fast-paced, good-looking, and pretty fun despite its overall sci-fi horror tone.

Little Nightmares 3 is more of the same, but there’s still plenty of heart and some stunning visuals that keeps you wanting to see what comes next.

Battlefield 6 is a return to its roots in many ways: an explosive warfare experience that puts you bang in the middle of the action with unique opportunities every moment and a seemingly never ending amount of customisation.

Absolum is a confident side-scroller with satisfying, punchy combat and a good spread of characters and skills.

Full of heart, a cute cast, a seemingly endless array of goodies to grab and new ideas at every turn, Yooka-Replaylee is a must buy for any fan of the platforming genre.

Little Rocket Lab is a lovely game, and an essential pick for fans of cosy games, but its systems are deep enough that I think the Factorio and Satisfactory players out there will still get a kick out of it.

Star Wars: Beyond Victory features three fun games in one, making the full use of virtual reality and all its capabilities in one gloriously nerdy package.

Dicealot is easy to learn but incredibly hard to put down, with compelling risk reward moments in every battle and a Farkle around every corner.

Whether you want to switch the HUD off and live out your wildest train driver fantasies or just unwind and take photographs, Train Sim World 6 welcomes every type of enthusiast with open arms.

Your tolerance for philosophical musings will probably determine how much you enjoy Dreams of Another, but underneath all that is still a fun game.

Disgaea 7 Complete is probably the best Disgaea game yet, and on the Nintendo Switch 2 it looks beautiful and runs smoother than ever.

King of Meat is a splendid way to while away the hours with a few friends as you dash through devilishly designed dungeons in a never-ending quest for fame and fortune.

Digimon Story Time Stranger is definitely one of the better Digimon games I've played, but it's lacking charm and just too slow going.

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny is an entertaining action RPG for newcomers, but its performance on Switch is disappointing.

EA Sports FC 26 tries to right some of the wrongs of last year, and while it's a superb football title with plenty of depth, there are some frustrations with its gameplay.
