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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“While you can explore Moonlight Peaks, fix your farm, and find love at any time of year, this game is something that I could return to every fall to match the vibes of harvest season and Halloween.”

“A charming and touching platformer that may seem formulaic and basic from the outside, but in fact turns out to be quite original and memorable.”

“Sonic Frontiers is more than I expected, yet still less than SEGA's longtime mascot deserves. That is not to say the game is bad. The biggest issues here are technical, stemming directly from a lack of polish and the jarring nature of the game's art direction.”

“Star Fox on the Nintendo Switch 2 is exactly the kind of remake fans have been hoping for. It stays true to what made the Nintendo 64 classic so memorable while introducing enough visuals, audio and gameplay improvements to make it feel fresh for a new generation of gamers.”

“Not all the levels are winners, and I certainly found myself with a feeling of disappointment at how many of them end anticlimactically, but Rhythm Heaven Groove is still a neat little game that's worth diving into.”

“Star Fox is another remaster of a beloved classic. Fans were undoubtedly hoping for more, but it’s still an enjoyable experience. It’s just a bit too short, especially since the multiplayer mode fails to deliver.”

“Star Fox on the Switch 2 is certainly the definitive version of the single-player game. The controls, visuals, sounds, and overall experience are impeccable. It has quality for any enthusiast of rail shooters and aerial combat games, and fans of the original have a real treat in their hands. On the other hand, the playtime is quite limited by current standards. Four to six hours are more than enough to exhaust the campaign content.”

“The Switch 2 is never going to be as powerful as a PS5 or XBOX Series, but games like DMC 5 show it doesn’t need to be. Aside from a slight… crispiness to the character models hair, similar to other RE Engine titles I’ve played on Switch 2, this game looks great.”

“Rhythm Paradise Groove offers a new entry in the franchise, delivering 80 single-player minigames, up to 4-player local multiplayer, and innovative new modes like a pseudo-RPG. With simplicity as its banner, unlocking all of its secrets will require you to become a true master of rhythm—something that can prove to be quite a challenge.”

“At the end of the day, Star Fox’s biggest strength and most fatal flaw are one in the same: It’s just Star Fox 64 again. On hand, that’s why it’s so much fun to play. It is a pretty good remake of a borderline perfect video game. But it also has to measure up to a borderline perfect video game, which it simply doesn’t in some important regards. I’m satisfied with what I’ve played, but also beyond ready for an actual new Star Fox game.”

“Capcom has done an excellent job bringing its franchises to the Switch 2. From the new Resident Evil titles to Street Fighter 6—available right at the new console's launch— Devil May Cry 5: Devil Hunter Edition serves as further proof of the company's commitment to re-establishing strong ties with Nintendo; they have not only brought over an already excellent game largely intact but also ensured it runs flawlessly on the Switch 2.”

Thumb CultureJul 3, 2026Score 40

“DEAD OR ALIVE 6 Last Round feels like little more than a cash grab designed to sell more DLC. With no upgrade path for returning players, there is genuinely nothing here that I could recommend over DOA6. If you’re a newcomer, however, then this is still the same engaging, deep fighting game from 2019. A disappointment for long-time fans, we can only hope future updates will add new features. Preferably ones not locked behind a paywall. As it stands now, Last Round is less of an updated version of DOA6, and more of a current gen version of it. Therefore, DEAD OR ALIVE 6: Last Round receives the Thumb Culture Bronze Award.”

“Star Fox on Nintendo Switch 2 is a very competent remake of the Nintendo 64 title. With impressive graphics and exceptional performance, it updates the arcade experience for modern times and expands the narrative with new cutscenes, brilliantly localized and dubbed in our language. Despite the new modes, however, it remains a relatively short game.”
