Review Star Wars Outlaws (Switch 2) - An Underrated Adventure, A Super-Solid Port
Your lack of faith is disturbing
I find myself in a bit of an unusual position with Star Wars Outlaws on Switch 2 in that, having already played through the entire thing and reviewed it for our sister site Pure Xbox in 2024, I feel like I'm getting a quick second chance to see if my 8/10 score was justified. Spoiler alert: it was absolutely...
Review Beyond Good & Evil: 20th Anniversary Edition (Switch) - Beyond Good, Still
Turning a new Pey'j
Considering the lengthy ongoing development of Beyond Good & Evil 2 and the subsequent grilling from eager fans that Ubisoft has brought upon itself over the years, it’s easy to forget just how darn good the original game is.

Rayman is raving
2017’s Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle had one of the best DLCs we’ve ever seen a game starring Mario receive.

It proved Ubisoft knew how to make a...
Review Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope: The Last Spark Hunter (Switch) - Fun But Safe DLC Lacks Spark
Not enough reason to spend more time with Rabbids
To the surprise of pretty much everyone, the original Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle became one of the best tactics games on the Nintendo Switch. We loved its tight, puzzle-like missions and vibrant world that somehow presented Ubisoft’s Rabbids as less-than-annoying – even, dare we say,...
