Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 are returning in a new collection. This launches on October 2, 2025.

The two titles will be sold together as a physical bundle. Both of these titles will be available individually on the Nintendo eShop as well.

Nintendo Direct September 2025 live stream

Cronos The New Dawn review

System: Switch 2
Release date: September 5, 2025
Developer: Bloober Team
Publisher: Bloober Team

It’s always nice to play games that feel like a product of the people that made them, and to see complex cultural values and historical experiences reflected within the games we play. It’s even nicer to see these topics handled in a way that feels earnest, heartfelt, and naturally rooted in the onscreen fiction. The risk-averse confines of the AA and AAA ecosystem make it difficult for modern developers to sing from the heart in this regard, which is what makes Cronos: The New Dawn such an enticing prospect. Fresh off of their mainstream mega-success with a solid remake of Konami’s Silent Hill 2, Polish developer Bloober Team has bucked the idea of banking on the safety of sequels and remakes. Instead, they’ve opted to hard-launch an entirely new action-horror franchise. Not just any new franchise, mind – but one that’s so deeply rooted in modern Polish history that I came out the other end of my time with it wearing a zupan.
