Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is the best Switch 2 game to date and seems perfectly designed to take advantage of the console's features. It returns to its roots but takes things in a new direction. It's a visual spectacle with incredibly detailed and sharp graphics.
Marvel Cosmic Invasion delivers exactly what it promises: a remarkable beat 'em up experience that feels like it came straight from the arcades, with wonderful pixel art and a huge amount of love for the brand and its characters.
Constance is a beautiful game with a much-needed message. Its movement mechanics place it among this year's best platformers, and its metroidvania essence is the best invitation to thoroughly explore all these great hand-painted locations.
Kirby Air Riders is a fun and addictive racing game with simple yet deep controls, featuring a variety of game modes, unlockable characters and vehicles, and a charming visual style that, combined with its smooth performance, delivers excitement and adrenaline in every race.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 attempts to compensate for its excessive continuity with an immense amount of content. It has the best multiplayer in the series in years, and Final Objective is a fantastic addition with the potential to be memorable. However, its terrible campaign and its desire to refine the usual formula make it a notable game, but not an excellent one.
Let’s Sing 2026 arrives with over 30 new songs for you to sing at the top of your lungs. Despite having a varied playlist and four game modes, this party feels insufficient, especially if you don’t have the VIP Pass.
Dispatch is the perfect example that superhero stories can still captivate us. It has a plot full of hilarious moments and unexpected twists that you can shape with your choices. On top of that, there’s a more strategic side that brings you even closer to its charismatic characters. In summary, the game developed by AdHoc Studio is another gem of 2025.
Where Winds Meet offers an ambitious third-person adventure in which we become heroes or heroines of 10th-century China. A vast open-world RPG, full of possibilities, which we can enjoy alone, with friends, or with unknown players. Absolute freedom to act, decide, and forge our legend allows us to customize our martial arts, choose our path, and move through the world by running on water, walking on walls, or even flying like in a Chinese martial arts movie. Unfortunately, the gameplay is hampered by this ambition with mini-games that don't quite work well and a use of AI that seems to go beyond dialogues with NPCs.
Anno 117: Pax Romana combines an engaging narrative with an excellent learning curve and deep, addictive gameplay. Although the visual details could be improved, it keeps the player fully immersed in city-building.
ARC Raiders has been a real surprise. Embark takes the plunge into extraction shooters with one of the most energetic mixes of PvE and PvP I've ever played. Despite a few shortcomings in terms of usability, this game has earned its place on the list of the biggest surprises of 2025.
