Twenty years is a long time to leave a sword in its sheath. Capcom unsheathes Onimusha with a clear decision. Rather than reinventing the series as another sprawling epic, Onimusha: Way of the Sword sharpens one idea until it cuts clean. Every clash of steel should feel personal, readable, and earned. That restraint works because the duel …

Moonlighter 2 chooses refinement over repetition and that restraint transforms a divisive loop into an addiction. Where the original Moonlighter asked you to tolerate punishing dungeon runs and opaque shop pricing, its sequel smooths every friction point without removing the tension that made the premise work. Developer Digital Sun rebuilt the game in 3 D, rethought …

Crimson Moon knows exactly what it wants to be. Rather than chasing a 50 hour epic, Probably Monsters built a tight loot heavy action RPG that blends Soulslike tension with roguelike momentum and you can finish a full run before dinner gets cold. That restraint is its greatest strength and its clearest limit. You play as …

Reviewed on Nintendo Switch 2 | Played in handheld and docked modes | Patch 2. 0. 0 Pokémon Pokopia has taken over my life to a certain degree. Omega Force’s cozy sandbox, published by Nintendo on Switch 2, has had me exploring the skies, making pals with my favourite Pokémon, and dragging a certain coastal town back from …

The Hyper X Origins 2 1800 (starting at $139. 99, frequently on sale for $99. 99) sits in that sweet spot between budget plug-and-play boards and the enthusiast custom keyboard rabbit hole. Our review unit arrived with Hyper X Red linear switches pre-installed, an 8000 Hz polling rate, and a semi-transparent housing that harks back to ’90s tech aesthetics. The …

The ELO Vagabond ($99. 99) arrives from an e Sports-focused brand most mobile gamers have never encountered, yet it delivers a gamepad that punches well above its relative obscurity. Hall-effect sticks, mechanical buttons, glowing LED rings, and a telescopic grip that stretches to accommodate devices up to 8. 2 inches wide make this one of the more complete mobile controllers …

Kirby Air Riders is not trying to reinvent arcade racing. Masahiro Sakurai’s follow-up to the 2003 Game Cube cult title arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 with the same core philosophy its predecessor established: minimal inputs can carry surprising depth, speed is its own reward, and chaos is the feature. Two decades later, the question was never …

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is the musou-style action game set during the events preceding The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, developed by Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force and published by Nintendo for Nintendo Switch 2. It follows Zelda, Rauru, and the five Sages as they fight to defend ancient Hyrule against overwhelming forces. The core …

Quick Answer: The Turtle Beach Mario Star Airlite Fit Wired Gaming Headset ($39. 99 CAD / $27. 99 USD) wraps competent 40mm audio in an officially licensed translucent Mario Star shell that looks far pricier than it is. At 228 grams it’s one of the lightest headsets in its class, with breathable jersey knit earcups that stay comfortable …
June 8, 2026
The Blacklyte Athena Pro (starting at $499 USD, $719 CAD, $559 as tested for the Leatherette White) doesn’t reinvent anything. It executes the Secretlab Titan recipe with enough polish that it earns a seat at the same table. You get the tall bolsters, the 4 D armrests, the built-in lumbar knob, and the magnetic neck pillow, …

Beehive Studios’ debut creature collector gets the combat right and the world beautiful. If only it trusted the player with its story sooner. Editor’s Take Lumen Tale: Memories of Trey delivers one of the most tactically satisfying battle systems in the creature-collecting genre, wrapped in a gorgeous 2 D-meets-3 D world, but its insistence on withholding narrative payoff …

Realm of Ink does not hide its influences. Leap Studio’s action roguelite wears its Hades-shaped silhouette openly, from the brisk room-to-room combat flow to the way each run asks you to improvise around a growing pile of synergistic upgrades. That familiarity could have made it feel derivative. Instead, it mostly works in the game’s favor …

The Hyper X Cloud Stinger 3 Wireless doesn’t just iterate on its predecessor. It bulldozes every reasonable expectation for what a sub-$100 wireless gaming headset can deliver. Our review unit features 50mm dynamic drivers, dual wireless connectivity, and a claimed 80-hour battery life. The headset’s absurd stamina and stainless steel reinforced frame stand out, though the …

The strange thing about James Bond in games is that the fantasy always sounded easier to adapt than it actually was. On paper, the ingredients are obvious: espionage, gadgets, gunfights, luxury, deception, fast cars, and the constant threat of a mission collapsing at the worst possible second. In practice, most Bond games either leaned too …
May 29, 2026
Revenge of the Savage Planet is the rare sequel that benefits from not pretending it has outgrown its own identity. Raccoon Logic does not chase prestige, scale for its own sake, or the kind of self-serious reinvention that often flattens a distinctive original into something more generic. Instead, it returns to the same acidic mix …

Good-Feel’s latest Yoshi outing trades challenge for discovery and ends up delivering Nintendo’s most inventive platformer in years. The question is whether the industry knows how to celebrate a game like this. Editor’s Take Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is a breathlessly imaginative platformer that replaces traditional challenge with systemic discovery, delivering a hand-crafted toybox …

Editor’s Take The LEGO APXGP Team Race Car (77252) looks like a movie tie-in, but it lands as one of the smartest value plays in the Speed Champions lineup thanks to its sharp black-and-gold livery, sturdy build, and two named minifigures. Pros Cons At a Glance Spec Details Set Name LEGO APXGP Team Race Car …

Housemarque built its modern reputation on games that value feel above everything else. SAROS keeps that identity intact, but it also reaches for something more open and more human. Rather than simply extending Returnal with a new setting and tougher loop, it adds a more direct story, a more flexible progression model, and a structure …
April 30, 2026
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream does not chase the soft, low-stakes comfort that defines many modern life sims. Instead, it leans into absurdity. It is loud, awkward, funny, and often completely unhinged. That choice works because Nintendo understands the appeal of this series: you are not building a peaceful retreat so much as managing a …
April 29, 2026
There was a time when Capcom felt comfortable taking expensive swings. Alongside defining hits like Resident Evil 4 and Devil May Cry, it also backed stranger, riskier work such as Killer7, P. N. 03, and Gregory Horror Show. Pragmata feels like a return to that older instinct. Rather than chasing another familiar blockbuster template, it builds a …

The HP 8 EB4 laptop, configured with Intel’s Core Ultra X9 388 H and integrated Intel Arc B390 graphics, lands in an awkward but useful middle ground. It is not a gaming laptop, and the benchmark data makes that plain within minutes. However, it is a surprisingly capable productivity machine with a strong PCMark 10 Extended score …

If rainbow lighting on your preferred plumber’s face sounds ridiculous to you, here’s the thing: it isn’t. The Turtle Beach Rematch Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch 2 in the Mario & Luigi design is, according to Turtle Beach, the first officially licensed Nintendo controller to ship with RGB lighting built in. That’s not a small claim. Nintendo’s …

The full title tells you almost nothing. Super Mario Bros. Wonder: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Meetup in Bellabel Park sounds like a bullet-pointed press release stapled into a subtitle. But strip away the awkward naming and what you actually have is the definitive version of one of the best 2 D platformers Nintendo has ever made, now …
March 25, 2026
The Hyper X Cloud III S Wireless ($179. 99) is the headset Hyper X should have shipped from the start. It carries forward everything that made the Cloud III Wireless a strong performer, including its lightweight build, those angled 53mm dynamic drivers, and an impressive 120-hour battery life over 2. 4 GHz wireless, but it finally adds Bluetooth connectivity. That single …
