Also available on Switch 1, Cast n Chill is easily<\/em> one of the nicest-looking games on either console, and one of the most effective uses of this retro pixel art style we’ve yet encountered.<\/p>\n The devs have nailed little details such as the plop and pull of your float, the gentle rumble of your controller as you rake a spinner across a shoal of fish to attract them, and the weight and heft of everything, really. Oh, and you’ve got a dog with you to pet.<\/p>\n With only two buttons controlling everything you do (and even an idle mode, if that’s your thing), there’s even a local co-op mode for a friend to join you in the same boat, so you can cast and chill together. Blissful.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>Fireshine Games<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>Pugstorm<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>28th Jan 2026 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 28th Jan 2026 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a315.99 \/ $19.99 \/ \u20ac19.99<\/strong><\/p>\n Core Keeper is a wonderfully engaging and mysterious survival sandbox that is tough to put down once it gets its hooks in you.<\/p>\n An expertly judged progression curve, tons of secrets and unlockables, and excellent presentation all come together to make this one an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a great new survival game. If you\u2019ve had your fill of stalwarts like Minecraft or Terraria and are looking for the next great game to scratch that itch, look no further.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>MINTROCKET<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>6th Nov 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 6th Nov 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a316.99 \/ $19.99 \/ \u20ac19.99<\/strong><\/p>\n In 2023, a year dominated by titanic, big-budget releases like Tears of the Kingdom and Mario Wonder, off-the-wall roguelike Dave The Diver stepped up to the plate and knocked the ball clear of the park with a heaving swing.<\/p>\n Its charming animations and writing supplement a mechanically dense experience that never stops dangling a new carrot to chase. You owe it to yourself to pick up this outstandingly funny, enthralling, and weird gem.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>Arc System Works<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>Arc System Works<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>31st Jul 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 31st Jul 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a36.73 \/ $7.99 \/ \u20ac7.99<\/strong><\/p>\n A wordless experience that puts an emphasis on the ‘visual’ in visual novel, it\u2019s not every day that a game successfully manages to craft a moving narrative about art, life, and the passage of time solely on the merit of its visual and musical storytelling.<\/p>\n But even if this short game itself remains silent, Dear me, I was\u2026 is absolutely worth talking about.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>8-4<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>tobyfox<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>5th Jun 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 5th Jun 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a320.99 \/ $24.99 \/ \u20ac23.99<\/strong><\/p>\n Deltarune is a game that can feel odd to recommend, as it\u2019s both difficult to convey in words what makes this game feel special and\u2026 well, with further chapters yet to join the present four, it still isn\u2019t finished yet.<\/p>\n Its goofy and subversive narrative, innovative battle mechanics, and killer soundtrack all combine to make this follow-up to Undertale from Toby Fox worth the purchase in its current state, even if it is incomplete and the visuals feel a tad underwhelming.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>Shin’en Multimedia<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>Shin’en Multimedia<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>5th Jun 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 5th Jun 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a313.49 \/ $14.99 \/ \u20ac14.99<\/strong><\/p>\n Fast Fusion may not have the most comprehensive collection of tracks, but it’s easily the most accomplished entry in Shin’en Multimedia’s series so far. The new jump ability adds a new layer of strategy to the gameplay, while experimenting with the fusion mechanic to find the perfect vehicle is a joy.<\/p>\n The occasional grinding to save up money can be a momentary drag, but if you’re after something a bit more ‘hardcore’ than Mario Kart World, Fast Fusion is a no-brainer, and an absolute must-buy.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>Team Cherry<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>Team Cherry<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>5th Feb 2026 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 5th Feb 2026 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a310.99 \/ $15.00 \/ \u20ac14.99<\/strong><\/p>\n Hollow Knight was already a pretty game, but on Switch 2 it’s much more in line with the colour and lighting of Silksong. There are so many little things in the upgrade that give Hallownest a new glow; it actually has us itching to replay the whole thing again, perhaps even for a Steel Soul run.<\/p>\n Many of the upgrades are small. The game was already 60fps on Switch, just with a blurrier resolution in handheld, and the jump to 120fps isn’t as easy to notice as 30 to 60. And the input delay is only really noticeable if you’ve played the game on other platforms or if you’re a speedrunner.<\/p>\n So yes, Hollow Knight – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition might not be a transformative upgrade, but it is free<\/em> if you own the Switch 1 game, and if you’re paying attention, you’ll notice and love all of the little tweaks and improvements. Switch 2 is the place to play the game now.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>Team Cherry<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>Team Cherry<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>4th Sep 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 4th Sep 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a316.75 \/ $19.99 \/ \u20ac19.50<\/strong><\/p>\n No, there’s no such thing as too much Hollow Knight!<\/p>\n Hollow Knight: Silksong\u2019s beauty is beguiling, hiding an interior that\u2019s deliberately harsh but endlessly rewarding. Everything feels deliberate, pushing you to learn, improve, and perfect, or simply just explore a little more. And what a world it is to dig into.<\/p>\n Somehow, Team Cherry surpassed our expectations tenfold and delivered a mesmeric blend of balletic combat and movement with persistence, joy, and an incredibly invigorating map at the centre. We\u2019ve never felt better surmounting the challenges put before us.<\/p>\n Publisher: <\/span>G-mode<\/strong> \/ Developer: <\/span>G-mode<\/strong><\/p>\n Release Date: <\/span>18th Sep 2025 (USA)<\/strong> \/ 19th Sep 2025 (UK\/EU)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a311.49 \/ $12.99 \/ \u20ac7.79<\/strong><\/p>\n Kuukiyomi 4: Consider It! is a delightfully silly little game that also provides plenty of dark laughs, clever digs, and unbearable social tension thanks to a brilliantly executed collection of scenarios.<\/p>\n Not every level is gonna have you howling, and some of them don’t even really make any sense, but we’ll be damned if we haven’t been well-entertained for our money and made to laugh plenty whilst also being reminded that, at best, we are deeply inconsiderate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" BOKURA: planet (Switch 2) Publisher: KODANSHA \/ Developer: Tokoronyori Release Date: 7th Aug 2025 (USA) \/ 7th Aug 2025 (UK\/EU) \u00a34.64 \/ $5.49 \/ \u20ac5.39 A follow-up to developer tokoronyori’s BOKURA from 2023, BOKURA: planet was a lovely surprise.
