“Switch 2 owners are about to discover the world of Elden Ring. If they've never experienced it elsewhere, then the magic that stretches through every fibre of the game remains intact, and in handheld especially, offers a thoroughly enjoyable version of the game. If you've played elsewhere, however, the performance downgrades may be too much to take.”

“Fire Emblem: Three Houses and Midnight Suns both showed how to deliver deep tactics with a sublime story, and Zero Company easily stands among that elite company of addictive turn-based decision-making and sublime storytelling.”

“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy leans more heavily into action in a series known for its stealth. It's the change we didn't know we needed. It offers a charming world, clever puzzles, fluid combat, and a story packed with mystery, tragedy, and even horror.”

“Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition for Switch 2 is a technically polished port that, after its delay and optimization, delivers a stable experience, particularly in docked mode. With the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion and exclusive classes included, this is the definitive handheld version.”

“While it starts out strong as a less cinematic but still stunning Uncharted line experience, the final act drags on so much with the story spilling its wheels and the stakes sequences seemingly stuck in a Groundhog Day loop, the game squanders a lot of its initial splendor towards the end.”

“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy proves that this universe doesn’t need to belong exclusively to Amicia, Hugo or even the rats. There are other stories worth telling in this world, and if this is what Asobo can do with Sophia, then I genuinely hope the A Plague Tale Legacy name becomes an opportunity to explore even more of them.”

Analog Stick GamingAug 26, 2026Score 90Pre-release Review

“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy is astounding, but does suffer a bit when it comes to the game’s lacking boss encounters, and some moments where the game wears out its welcome in the last few hours. Still, Asobo is a remarkable flexible studio that clearly knows how to produce real emotion out of its characters and stories in ways that defy the genre.”

“Elden Ring Tarnished Edition turns out to be a much more convincing conversion than initial tests had led one to fear, successfully bringing the Interregnum to Switch 2 with technical compromises that, while undeniable, never truly compromise the experience.”

“Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy isn't meant to be just a sequel, but rather a standalone action-adventure set in the familiar universe. The shift from helpless tension to aggressive sword-fighting is risky, but it fits Sophia as the protagonist in a way that makes sense. Resonance is a fantastic action-adventure that tells an emotional and compelling story.”

GameBlastAug 25, 2026Score 80Pre-release Review

“Once past its lackluster opening, Aggelos 2 delivers dynamic, engaging Metroidvania-style exploration, opting to provide paths where players can get lost and make their own discoveries rather than relying on clear directions. The concept of switching between two dimensions works well, defining an adventure that—even without a deeply developed narrative—makes the journey worthwhile.”

“Twisted Tower is a great shooter that makes the most of its excellent audiovisuals to deliver a highly entertaining game which isn’t just a feast for the eyes, but is also great fun to play. Given that you haven’t come here for the story and are looking for a game with highly competitive PvP that will give you a few hours’ worth of fun, Twisted Tower is a safe bet for shooter fans. And if you’re someone who enjoys a macabre atmosphere and striking audiovisuals, you absolutely must play Twisted Tower. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)”

“Lou’s Lagoon is warm, welcoming, and consistently charming, and its simple gameplay loop works well for the adventure it sets out to provide. I just wish there was a stronger reason to keep exploring and upgrading once the story had given me everything it had to offer. It may not have quite enough to turn its tropical getaway into a long-term home, but as a short, relaxing adventure, Lou’s Lagoon is still a pleasant place to visit.”

“The Mexican Ninja experience is literally a missed opportunity. From what I played, the game's quality as a game is very good and would have undoubtedly achieved a high rating, but its completely unacceptable technical state made the overall experience extremely bad. In its current state, I do not recommend it at all, ever.”

“If you're looking for a good puzzle game with a variety of difficulty levels, Servant of the Lake is an excellent choice. Its intriguing atmosphere and dramatic elements make it more enjoyable than some of the previous games in the series. For the first time, you can replay the game to discover more of the family's secrets, giving you a strong reason to return after completing it for the first time.”
