    This is the police this is not, as the fine narrative and attention to details are lost in the translation to this spin off. Still, a decent choice for the uninitiated of the turn-based strategy genre.

    The Outer Worlds is more than the spiritual heir to Fallout: New Vegas. It's a rich and imaginative game about politics, the influence of corporations in our lives and everything in between.

    We had fun with River City Girls, almost as much as with the old titles of the franchise and expecially in coop mode, but we're not sure purists will appreciate some of the new ideas. It's a pity that the game is a little bit pricey, too.

    After a couple of years this is still a good and balanced JRPG, but this remastered version is way too overpriced in the light of no new content and no dub added. Just wait for a price drop before buying.

    The Bard's Tale Iv Director's Cut is the best version of the game from last year, with a lot of improvements and extra content, but still retains too much little bugs that need to be fixed as soon as possible. A solid choice for all the dungeon crawler fans.

    The Ninja Saviors is a blast from the past, and shows to newcomers what the fuss was about twenty years ago in both the arcades and the console market: pure, unadulterated fun for one or two players, as if it was September of 1994.

    FIFA 20 is one of the most balanced games in the series to date, and has finally slowed its frantic gameplay down a bit, but is not reinventing any of its modes and core mechanics as it looks like a transition title.

    Contra Hard Corps is the worst Contra episode up to date, and a boring and messy twin stick shooter by itself: if this is the future of the franchise, we might be playing the Contra Anniversary Collection over and over.

    Borderlands 3 is everything we hoped for. Gearbox has refined the traditional formula of the franchise, improving its powerful mix of FPS and RPG elements with new intriguing features. The heart of the Campaign is the inimitable humor embodied by the characters, except for the bad guys: Calypso twins struggle to find their place among the stars.

    The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is an amazing remake that gives new life to a 26 year old game, with a brilliant art style and a perfect progression tied to the finding and the use of accessories. The only technical flaws are represented by some frame rate issues during the transition from one area to another.

    This is the weakest version of the game overall, but it's also the only one that allows to explore at anyone's leisure whenever and wherever. If you plan to play on a TV, opt for the PS4 or PC version, otherwise Ni No Kuni on Switch is the (only) way to go.
    • 86 Metascore

    Spyro: Reignited Trilogy lives on contrasts. We can be Spyro whenever we want with the portability and a lot of content to experience with a great control system. But also we cannot deny that the portability was payed with lot of technical compromises, that weren’t even enough to give the game a constant fluidity. Perhaps it’s only to those who have only Switch as a current-gen console.

    Daemon X Machina is one of the biggest surprises of this year on Nintendo Switch: a third person shooter that is much more of the sum of its parts, recommended not only to mech and anime fans but to anyone looking for a good mission-based shoot'em up.

    Saviors of Uldum feels more like a complement to Rise of Shadows than a full fledged expansion, but it still a worthy addition to the Hearthstone metagame. Now we only hope the next (and last for 2019) will be far heavier.

    Both Grandia games deserved a much better treatment than the one GungHo gave them, and we really hope the publisher will support the game in the coming weeks, but the sheer value of the titles inside this package is enough to recommend a buy nonetheless for any Switch owner.

    Gears 5 is the natural evolution of the Gears series: a more daring game, in every possible way. The Campaign took us by surprise, not only with its narration, but also with its bold design choices. The single-player experience prepares the player for a second round, with the gargantuan multiplayer section, where we find the glorious old modes and an Escape mode that punished and seduced us.

    Catherine: Full Body is a laudable remaster. It introduces a new route through a well orchestrated twist, but if you don’t want to take it you will find again the same psychological attention and character development. The game is a sincere work about the man and its bonds and will to overcome adversities. You should give it a chance if you don’t have played on previous generation, but this time even the original players may find a reason to come back to block-climbing.

    Erica is difficult to judge. It has neither the tension of an Heavy Rain, nor the convoluted plot of other interactive dramas. Its choice of live-action makes it different from its genre but it also confines it within it, especially about interactivity and design. However, despite its low duration and hybrid nature, it’s evident the passion in every level (writing, background, actors). A courageous but also risky experiment.

    Death’s Gambit is an average souls-like. He tries to be both original and traditionalist, by scenographic map design and a great attention into boss fights, sustained by a soft soundtrack and a deep character development (both on plot and gameplay). Its will to create a different mood from the normal “2010s dark fantasy” makes this game a good starting point for both developer and publisher, but they’ll have to deal with inevitable inexperience.
