System: Switch 2
Release date: September 4, 2025
Developer: Marvelous
Publisher: Marvelous

If a game is going to let me rip across a futuristic planetscape in a mech suit and decimate a seemingly endless array of robotic and rancid foes, really the only thing it needs to do is make those core actions feel as satisfying as possible. Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is a game of many parts, but if there’s one concept it absolutely nails, it’s a simple one: blasting aliens in a high-tech exosuit should be exciting. At the same time, this sequel to Kenichiro Tsukuda’s 2019 combat-action game embraces the philosophy of “bigger is better,” expanding upon the original game’s mission-based structure with a massive open world to explore, layers upon layers of systems to learn, and seemingly endless ways to build a space-age war machine. It’s also one of the first multiplatform games of this scale to launch day-and-date on Nintendo Switch 2, making it an exciting litmus test for what the console might be capable of.

Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar review

System: Switch [reviewed], Switch 2
Release date: August 27, 2025
Developer: Marvelous
Publisher: Marvelous

The Story of Seasons series has always lived in this cozy niche between farming sim and life sim, where your day-to-day rhythms matter just as much as your long-term goals. Grand Bazaar originally released on the Nintendo DS back in 2010 under the Harvest Moon label, and now it’s been rebuilt for a modern audience on Nintendo Switch. This remake stays faithful to its unique spin on the formula – putting the weekly town bazaar at the center of everything – while smoothing out some of the rougher edges from the DS era. But how well does it hold up in 2025, now that farming sims are practically their own genre?

As for the particle weapon Combat Support System, this is a preinstalled modification for Arsenal body armor providing Outers with powerful particle armaments. The three basic systems include Assault Shift (AS), which automatically targets and shoots enemies, Guard Shift (GS), offering a directional shield that nullifies attacks, and Wing Shift (WS), giving players the ability to fly at high speeds. Players can use these particle armaments through the limited resource known as Femto, giving Outers a powerful temporary boost to be used strategically.
