FIFA 19 is a definite improvement on last year's effort, despite not all new additions quite hitting the mark.
FIFA 19 is a threadbare experience on the Switch. The inclusion of the Champions League and a significant graphical upgrade goes some way to approaching the levels on presentation found on the PS4, Xbox One, and PC version, but on the pitch it's a mile away from being a premium football simulation and fails to build on last year's game. I can see myself having some fun playing the new House Rules modes locally with friends, but in most single-player modes there is no doubt that it is a repetitive and unfulfilling experience.
Observation's novel approach to puzzle design and gripping plot combine to create a unique science-fiction experience.
A place for unlimited creation, Dreams is a highly ambitious concept, and one that has been magically brought to life.
Predator: Hunting Grounds offers brief moments of blockbuster action, but ultimately underwhelms more than it excites.
Overwatch is a masterpiece. A dizzying amalgam of unique characters, stunning style, and compellingly dynamic action.
A collection of exciting minigames and a burst of every colour under the rainbow makes Fall Guys a consistent delight.
Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a puzzle game with unique ideas that takes far too long to fully implement them.
AWE is an enjoyable few hours back in the world of the Bureau and a great first step into Remedy's Connected Universe.
All in all, FIFA 21 is a year of small improvements with much to enjoy, but little to shout about.
Bugsnax is a puzzle-adventure packed full of charm, mystery and a surprising amount of emotional depth.
This year's Call of Duty multiplayer is somewhat of a backwards step for the series.
Through engaging puzzles and a captivating story, Call of the Sea provides an excellent, poignant adventure.
Destruction AllStars can provide fun bursts of frantic car combat action, but never adds up to much more than that.
The Final Cut elevates Disco Elysium from an already phenomenal RPG to a true must-play masterpiece.
Speed Golf is a fun addition, but a poor adventure mode, a slight selection of courses and low replayability results in Mario Golf: Super Rush being an underwhelming entry into the series.
FIFA 22: Legacy Edition on Nintendo Switch is another infuriating release in the series.
Call of Duty Vanguard's highly polished campaign provides a healthy amount of fun, even if its brief length and lack of variety lead it to fall short of the classic pieces of war cinema it's trying to emulate.
A triumphant combination of enthralling combat, top-tier creature and character design, and a captivating open world, Horizon Forbidden West is an absolute blast
Yes, at least eFootball 2022 does now have a fully-fledged mode to take it past the point of being a demo, but it's still lacking so much more than you'd expect from a 1.0 version of a game.
