If you’re looking for some low-key games to unwind to after a busy day, here are five chill and relaxing games to keep an eye on!
Following an initial launch earlier this year, Deflector is about to appear on Switch. Publisher RedDeerGames and developer Arrowfist Games confirmed today that it will hit the console on September 29, 2023.

In the latest Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 character spotlight, the team is showing off Aang – from Avatar: The Last Airbender – and his moveset.
Aang returns from the previous game, but has a new moveset and an updated design. He can use his air scooter and glider, but now has another jump. Overall, he has strong movement capabilities and combo potential. As the Avatar, Aang is also able to use different elements in his attacks. As a downside, since he’s one of the lightest characters in the game, he’s easier to knock out.

Splatoon 3 celebrated its first anniversary this weekend with a special Splatfest, and we now have the results from the Shiver vs. Frye vs. Big Man event.
