    Although graphically better, the Switch version comes with less joy than Virtual Reality versions.

    Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a beautiful remake of the second part. If you like the franchise with all its weird antics, you will love this game. It offers you the elements only Yakuza can give you, but there are a few downsides. Still, you must play this game.

    At its core, Wolfenstein 2 for Switch feels exactly like the adventure we played last year. With solid mechanics and a thrilling story, the game truly shines. Despite some heavy technical downscaling, the shooter still plays very well on the Switch.

    Super Bomberman R goes big on multiplayer and brings the fun. The campaign however does not due to a weird balancing act. Thanks to fast gameplay and many characters there is plenty to do even though the in-game currency is way off.

    Overcooked 2 is a must-have for all co-op lovers. It is just as fun as its predecessor, but with nice improvements like online multiplayer.

    Donkey Kong has arrived and did it in style. Rabbids style that is, because the world of DK has been invaded by Rabbids in this DLC. It’s a hilarious addition to a great game, but has a few minor flaws. Still, if you have the game, you need this too.

    Inside is an awesome game that is even more horrifying than Limbo. The best thing about this game is the mode and the way everything in this world wants to kill you. The adventure is a bit short but you will definitely love it if you enjoyed Limbo.

    The second expansion for Far Cry 5 brings you to Mars and delivers yet another co-op adventure. With brand new guns and enemies, you can explore the dusty world of Mars. Sadly, gameplay can feel repetitive, but overall this DLC still is a lot of fun.

    United Front does its best to be different. More visuals in the multiplayer maps, different zombie mechanics and a playful amount of randomness in the first stage of Operation Supercharge. A step forward, but still not everything falls into the right places.

    Codemaster’s F1 2018 is a great racing game. If you love the sport and aren’t afraid of the simulation genre, this is a definite must-have. With all-new features in career, more realistic car behaviour and graphics, improved AI and lots more, this is not just a lazy sequel but so much more.

    This puzzle game is a very good addition to your game collection. It gives the little gamers a joyful adventure, while experienced gamers will have a bit of a challenge to get to 100%. Simply a must buy.

    Unravel 2 is amazing thanks to clever puzzles and fantastic coop. It's beautiful and has some great gameplay, but playing alone lessens the experience. The music is the unsung hero, because it's majestic throughout the entire playthrough.

    The Crew 2 is a big, big racing game. The enormous playground based on the U.S. has a lot to offer and is fun to play in with friends, but unfortunately there is too much wrong with some essential elements to make it a definite must-have.

    The Octo Expansion for Splatoon 2 offers some thrilling challenges for players to complete, while also feeling familiar at the same time. The new stages are harder then before, but with enough skill you'll have no problem reaching the finish line.

    MotoGP 18 is the latest installment of Milestones motorcycle game series. Although the transition to the Unreal Engine 4 brings a lot of improvement, the other side of the coin is that you can't shake the thought that it could have been much more.

    LEGO The Incredibles is a game you will definitely enjoy if you loved other LEGO games. It has some great humor and is a dream come true for all Pixar fans. Still, the game feels a bit uninspired with a lack of unique characters and the same bugs again.

    The Next Generations DLC for Bridge Crew offers a brand new ship to play with, including a new role and overall feel. The new enemies are a nice addition to the game, although the expansion could have been a little more substantial.

    Grand Cruise is expensive for what it has to offer with barely half an hour of playtime. As cool as it is to become a Straw Hat Pirate, the two barebones mini-games are boring to play and look pretty bad. Fans of One Piece might enjoy this, but that's it.

    Mario Tennis Aces is a great game which everyone can enjoy. Even for those who do not game that often. It is great that there is a Story Mode, though it actually still feels a bit unbalanced. You can play with a bunch of characters and there is a great deal of content to enjoy.

    The legend is reborn, but is it worth it? You can go and fight baddies as Shaq fu again, but in a really really short game. The game looks good and plays nicely, but you can only do so alone. And all that makes it simply too expensive.

    Shape of the World is more an art form than a game. It lacks diversity and it gives you the idea that you’re sometimes tripping on drugs. All those colors are very bright, but you have no clue as to why you are on this absurd journey.

    One Piece Pirate Warriors 3 on Switch runs great, is amazing for fans and once again has some great combat. It's a shame that newcomers will feel lost and that losing is so punishing. It does have plenty of content for musou fans and One Piece fans alike.

    The enormous amount of satisfaction gained by building parks equivalent to the real Jurassic Park deal, outweighs the few technical problems the game has.

    Yesterday Origins is a mediocre title. Where you follow interesting characters and settings, most of the time the puzzles feel like to much out of place. You can immerse yourself in an interesting story, with terrible voice overs.

    Tennis World Tour is a disgrace for everyone who loves tennis. Don't buy this game, it's a waste of money and time.

    Owlboy is amazing thanks to it's fantastic set of characters and an incredible world to explore. The game has beautiful pixel art and great dialogue that will make you laugh out loud. The only downside is that the game crashes for no reason sometimes.

    ONRUSH is a unique take on a racing game. The game has an easy-to-play, difficult-to-master gameplay that is fun for everyone. It’s a shame that ONRUSH suffers from a lack of game modes and maps, which unfortunately makes it feel repetitive after a while.

    Vampyr is an epic adventure set in London during the Great War. Its original take on a vampire tale delivers, with deep storytelling and an awesome setting. Sadly technically the game suffers a lot from stuttering and loading screens.

    This Street Fighter collection is a must have for the fans. It contains twelve games of which four can be played online. Some games are pure nostalgia, but the rest is just timeless brawling action. Not to mention the mountain of art and other stuff.

    Little Nightmares is an awesome game which puts you in a genius story and ambiance. It will make you excited about the very next moment. The game has a lot of creativity in it, with interesting puzzles. The only real cons are some technical problems.
