Moonlighter Launches On The Switch In November
/ Carlos HernandezThe shopkeeper by day, dungeon crawler by night RPG Moonlighter is heading to the Nintendo Switch.
The Switch is arguably the best platform for a game in which you kill monsters and horde treasure by night and sell them at your shop by day. Rinse and repeat, it’s surprisingly fun! And the ability to take the game on the go and put it away in your bag will make the addictive grind absolutely unstoppable.
Also, developer Digital Sun has plenty of post-release plans for updates to the game, so you’ll probably get your hands on the best version of the game when it launches on the Switch this November.
For a clear picture of what this game has to offer, you can read my full review of Moonlighter. No exact date was given for when it heads on over to the Switch, but it’s a pleasant bit of news for Switch fans, nonetheless.
Despite its aging personality, Two Point Museum is the strongest entry in the series yet. The improved gameplay flow, deeper simulation mechanics, and museum theme provide just the right level of creative freedom and challenge.
Guilty Gear Strive is not only a miraculous 60fps port that makes the most minimal of sacrifices, keeping the 2021 masterpiece’s crisp animated effects and characters, but they managed to bring over every one of the game’s features to the aging Nintendo Switch with minimal loading times.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii reuses the Infinite Wealth setting that still feels fresh and exciting for many and is packed with an absurd pirate theme that reminds us that the Yakuza series can go anywhere it wants and still find ways to entertain. Goro Majima is liked for many reasons and his latest adventures just reinforce why he’s one of the most cherished characters in the series.
Even with a few fumbles on the game’s online netcode and matchmaking, Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. still delivers an excellent fighting game for newcomers and Virtua Fighter fans alike. And with this being an online-focused endeavor, it can only get better through patch updates.
Synduality Echo of Ada has potential, but its flawed economy, tedious grind, and lack of meaningful story incentives make it hard to recommend in its current state. Without drastic improvements, it risks being forgotten before it ever finds a steady audience.
Assassin’s Creed Shadows greatly blends the classic Assassin’s Creed stealth with the RPG elements of recent entries. Its dynamic world, seasonal changes, and improved stealth mechanics make exploration a joy, but Yasuke’s restrictive gameplay and a half-baked notoriety system hold it back. After 30+ hours, it’s shaping up to be a strong entry, but will it stick the landing?"
