“Star Fox on Nintendo Switch 2 brings back the classic foundation of Star Fox 64, recreating Fox McCloud and the Star Fox team’s mission against Dr. Andross in the Lylat System. The game opts for a more modern presentation, with revamped visuals, voiced dialogue, a more powerful soundtrack, new camera modes, and updated controls for the Switch 2. The campaign remains short and very familiar, but it works well thanks to its fast-paced arcade action, alternate routes, and the fun feeling of getting back into the Arwing. Battle Mode and Challenge Mode help extend the game’s longevity, even though the main experience is still clearly centered around the campaign.”

“Star Fox soars back into players' hands with gorgeous visuals, high-paced arcade action, and plenty of replay value. There’s room for the series to grow, but this solid reboot gives long-time fans and newcomers an adventure worth taking to the skies.”

“Star Fox (2026) is the second remake of Star Fox 64, widely regarded as the pinnacle of the series. With enhanced visuals, more polished presentation, high-quality cutscenes, and the same satisfying shooting gameplay, it faithfully modernizes the strengths of the original. However, its familiar story and largely unchanged progression leave something to be desired. If you were hoping for the triumphant return of a legend, you may end up walking away disappointed.”

Latest: Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok

GamerskyJul 7, 2026Score 80Pre-release Review

“Granblue Fantasy: Relink's major expansion, Endless Ragnarok, greatly expands the game with an impressive amount of new content. The time and effort required to fully build a character have now increased several times over. New characters, the summon system, new bosses, and the solo roguelike mode all offer substantial, high-quality additions. While the Chaos difficulty features too many reused enemies and the story presentation leaves something to be desired, Endless Ragnarok still delivers 20 to 50 or more hours of additional gameplay.”

“Rhythm Heaven Groove takes the series' signature, easy-to-pick-up rhythm gameplay to the next level. It offers incredible accessibility, including a TTS option that reads out almost all on-screen information, alongside a great volume of content. However, it's a shame that the input delay in docked mode isn't fully resolved across all play modes.”

“Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok eschews story for brutally hard bosses. It's more of a gauntlet of tough challenges for veteran players rather than the casual crowd, though its new characters and less tedious grind are welcome inclusions.”

“Sonic Frontiers allowed fans to really step into the shoes of the blue hedgehog. Even though it’s a little rough around the edges, Sonic Frontiers was a huge step in the right direction and the Definitive Edition, with every update and new content included, shows what a modern Sonic game is capable of. The feeling it gives you is unlike anything that’s come before it. It has to be played to be believed.”

“Despite issues like an unnecessary maze and out-of-place sci-fi premise, Deer & Boy is an adorable narrative adventure that I would recommend. Some of the puzzles are a bit confusing due to a lack of visual cues, but the puzzle gameplay is rewarding for the most part.”

“Even with its issues, Moonlight Peaks still offers a really solid farming game experience, and once it gets going, it nails that “just one more night” stickiness that the genre is famous for. The only reason the game isn’t scored higher here in my review is because of its loading times, as they are that bad. If and when those are improved, I’ll have no problem bumping the score up to a 4/5. Hopefully that fix comes sooner, rather than later. In the meantime, be prepared to do a lot of waiting around if you want to give this one a shot on Switch 2.”

After putting a slightly concerning number of hours into the game for this review, I still feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface of all the mysteries the town of Moonlight Peaks has to offer.”

Latest: Dead or Alive 6: Last Round

GameBlastJul 6, 2026Score 70

“Dead or Alive 6 Last Round brings the fighting game to the new generation with a lackluster offering. There is no discount for owners of the base version, and few items are included in the package — with the rest requiring additional purchases — meaning even those who had already bought all the DLC will have to pay up to complete their collection. Furthermore, the novel features are minimal and not particularly significant. It is still worth a look, however, for the fast-paced, fun combat, which remains the game's greatest highlight.”

“Moonlight Peaks is a great farming simulator that takes what many love about the genre and only makes it better with its charming world, fantastic characters, and unique spell system. While it does slightly stumble in certain areas with a desire for more quality-of-life features, this is a great game worth checking out.”

“Overall, Moonlight Peaks takes a classic, well-established farming sim structure and competently adapts the formula into a magical world inhabited by monsters. While interface issues, a weak soundtrack, and a lack of localization hold it back a bit, they don't take away from a game that has the potential to stand out in a heavily saturated market. Ultimately, it is a highly entertaining casual option full of personality for anyone looking for a breath of fresh air within the genre.”

“There's plenty to do on your monstrous homestead and a charming collection of neighbors into whose lives you can insert yourself, however much you choose. It's worth noting that stamina and mana meters can feel a bit restrictive, especially early on, and the purple tinged nights of the spring and summer seasons can grow tiresome. All in all, though, Moonlight Peaks is a delightful cozy experience that is built for fans of the genre and welcoming enough to newcomers as well.”
