Trails into Reverie is an impressive send-off to a series that does its best to deliver on fan expectations with characters, though an often generic and slow storyline does drag it down a bit.
Possibly the best classic Metroidvania this year, Blasphemous II delivers a solid action-adventure game topped with somber religion-inspired visuals.

Pikmin 4 is an absolute joy, featuring new mechanics and treasures that are sure to keep players enchanted for years to come.
Exoprimal’s dino destruction is a blast in co-op with plenty of playstyle variety in an otherwise slightly anemic offering that forces PVP elements into a primarily PVE designed game.

Aliens: Dark Descent is a worthy strategy title that capitalizes on the Aliens franchise in every way, putting out a deep, terrifying adventure that fans are sure to enjoy.

Final Fantasy XVI is an incredible action game that offers an epic tale with gorgeous visuals and an amazing soundtrack but lacking content will be noticeable to fans of the series.
This collection may be priced at a premium level, but for Etrian Odyssey fans, you are sure to remember why this addictive formula is more than welcome on the Nintendo Switch.
Loop8: Summer of Gods’ interesting characters make for an interesting story set in a gorgeous world but simplistic combat and loops that quickly grow repetitive drag this unique JRPG down.
Diablo is back, better and more addicting than ever, and with an insane level of post-campaign content. It takes some time for the game to open up, but once it does you won't be able to put it down.
