Sonic X Shadow Generations is still one of the best Sonic games on the market, and it runs absolutely wonderfully on the Switch 2.

F1 25 is the best the series has ever been, catering to fans of the drama as well as those that appreciate the intricacies of the science behind the driving.

Despite muddy visuals and a few dodgy animations, Tiebreak+ looks pretty good for a Switch game and credit has to be given thee work on this port.

As We Descend is a wonderful Roguelike deck builder even in its current form, but with many more months of polish and added content it could transform into a genre topping sensation. It’s well worth jumping in now if you like the sound of this apocalyptic card game, and hopefully sometimes next year we’ll be talking even more about this engaging addition to one of my favourite genres. [Early Access Review]

Elden Ring Nightreign is a game that does so much, and none of it feels arbitrary. The world is fascinating, the combat is exceptional, and there's plenty to see.

While Roadcraft can slow to a crawl at times and has moments of frustration because of it, it’s still a lot of fun bringing civilisation back to these battered biomes.
