Id Software once again show that they are the best at this with DOOM The Dark Ages - Revelations DLC. An unyielding rampage through even more of the worst Hell has to offer.

Helix: Descent N Ascent is a mysterious puzzle adventure that blends a striking monochrome world with creative abilities and thoughtful exploration. As you uncover the secrets of a forgotten world, you’ll solve inventive puzzles by combining powers, shifting realities, and finding new ways to interact with your surroundings. With its beautiful art style, atmospheric presentation, and rewarding mechanics, Helix delivers a memorable journey built around curiosity and cleverness.

Ubisoft has successfully delivered a fun, feature-complete and highly engaging twist on the classic board game that sacrifices some of the deep, strategic property-trading of the original in favor of unique character abilities and dynamic teamwork that keep matches feeling fresh. It’s definitely best played with a group of friends (preferably 4) that provides a highly entertaining weekend experience for devoted Star Wars enthusiasts and casual board game lovers alike.

Instant Sports 2 is a simple party game that is at its best when you're playing with family and friends. While some of its sports could use more variety and the single player experience isn't always engaging, the easy controls, fun progression, and lighthearted competition make it easy to pick up and enjoy. It may not have the variety or polish of bigger party games, but if you're looking for a casual multiplayer sports game, there's still plenty of fun to be had.

The best remakes remind you why you fell in love with the original in the first place. That’s exactly what Halo: Campaign Evolved does. It preserves everything that made Combat Evolved special, but layers enough new ideas on top that even after all these years, stepping back onto Alpha Halo feels like an adventure again. For longtime fans, it’s the perfect excuse to return. For anyone discovering Halo for the first time, Halo: Campaign Evolved is the perfect place to start.

Devil May Cry 5: Hunter’s Edition is another superb Switch 2 port from Capcom. It might not quite be the definitive version of DMC5 since it lacks some of the bells and whistles of the Special Edition, including Legendary Knight mode, which is a shame, but understandable considering the Switch 2’s hardware constraints, and a decent trade-off for being able to play it on your lap. Even if it’s not quite up there with the PS5/Series X version, it still looks phenomenal on Nintendo’s latest handheld and runs at a silky smooth 60fps, which is just what you want from its high-octane hack-and-slash gameplay. Regardless of the hardware, though, Devil May Cry 5 remains an absolute blast and one of the finest action games on any platform, and a must-have for any Switch 2 collection. (Or PlayStation, Xbox, or PC for that matter).

Granblue Fantasy: Relink – Endless Ragnarok is a great new expansion with a few flaws. However, those flaws don't hinder the otherwise enjoyable new pile of content.

You might like the stories, the voice acting and the characters, but none of them can salvage what is essentially a pedestrian experience where grunt work takes precedent over a true sense of wartime struggle and sacrifice.

Rose & Locket has the best art direction I have seen in an indie game in 2026. The devs clearly knew what they wanted and how to achieve it. They understood their limits and did not create an experience that outstays its welcome. Instead, they made a short, action-packed, innovative linear narrative-driven game that not only puts them on the radar of the fans of the genre but also marks them as a promising indie studio.

As someone who hadn’t spent meaningful time with Digimon in more than two decades, I wasn’t expecting Time Stranger to win me back; however, I was pleasantly surprised. Its excellent monster-raising systems, thoughtful quality-of-life features and engaging combat make it one of the strongest creature-collecting RPGs I’ve played in recent years. Whether you’re a lifelong DigiDestined or someone whose memories stop with the original anime, this is an adventure well worth taking.
