We have 10 Nintendo Switch & Switch 2 games releasing to talk about this round. Let’s hop in!
Calamity Angels: Special Delivery
Price: $29.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-17
“First-class fun in this delivery service RPG with a board game twist!
Lead a rag-tag group of kooky carriers in this delivery service RPG as they protect and trek packages through treacherous terrain, unruly monsters, and meet other sneaky delivery service teams ready to stake their claim as the best delivery service in the Orkotris Region!
Rain or shine—a new adventure awaits with every package!”
This looks like something I would enjoy but the price tag is not. I think this is best left for a sale.
Under the Island
Price: $19.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-17
“A 2D action-adventure steeped in ‘90s charm! Step into the shoes of Nia, and battle fierce monsters, solve clever puzzles, and explore a world alive with mystery.
DISCOVER THE LEGEND OF WHAT’S UNDER THE ISLAND!
Uncover a sinking mystery and step into the role of Nia, a newcomer to Seashell Island – and join forces with local girl Avocado to investigate an ominous fate – the island’s destined to sink beneath the ocean! Explore colorful regions, battle strange creatures, and uncover the ancient mysteries that could threaten your new home.”
I’ll more than likely grab this when it goes on sale but the game itself looks pretty good. Go check out a trailer if you’re curious.
Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown
Price: $39.99
System: Switch 2
Release Date: 2-18
“Set a course… for home.
Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown is a story-driven survival strategy game in which the fate of the iconic starship is in your hands. Take the helm, manage the ship and resources, and make difficult decisions. Will you be able to bring home the ship and its crew?
“What if?” Scenarios
Did you ever wonder what would have happened had Captain Janeway decided differently? If an important crew member had followed a different path? Or what the outcome would have been had the crew of the U.S.S. Voyager embraced Borg technology to increase their chances of survival?”
I’m not really a Star Trek fan but I appreciate the fact they made a new game for people who enjoy it.
WiZmans World Re;Try
Price: $24.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-19
“Harness your magic powers, absorb enemies, and evolve your three homunculi to triumph. It’s a truly spellbinding adventure!
ENTER THE DUNGEON
The city of Wizarest has been cut off from communication with the outside world. Those who have awakened have forgotten who they are, who their neighbors are, and live without any memories of their past. The only things they know are the dangers of the dungeons surrounding the city, the monsters that inhabit them, and the magic needed to counter them. The citizens have been trying to navigate the dungeons for years, but to no avail. Even after 100 years, no exit has been found. Now, a new wizard is heading into the dungeons to defy the monsters…”
I’m not sure what to make of this game. I’ll personally pass on it but I’m sure it will interest someone.
Gear Club Unlimited 3
Price: $49.99
System: Switch 2
Release Date: 2-19
“From France to Japan, race to victory behind the wheel of iconic cars
Having attracted millions of players for nearly 10 years, the Gear.Club series finally returns with Gear.Club Unlimited 3! For the first time in the series, you can now explore the asphalt roads of Japan as well as the French Mediterranean coast. Drive over 40 prestigious cars from the biggest automotive brands and customize every detail: paint, bodywork, rims, mechanical performance… Create a car that reflects your individuality and show off your style on a wide range of spectacular race tracks.”
I have never played one of these but I’m curious enough to give this one a try later. Though I’l be waiting for the (paid link) physical to drop in April.
Paranormasight: The Mermaid’s Curse
Price: $24.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-19
“Will you survive the curse together this summer?
A brand new PARANORMASIGHT tale begins in Ise-Shima, Japan – a region rich in mermaid legends.
Join a cast of fascinating characters investigating the mysteries of the Mermaids of Ise. Unravel their different perspectives on the case and guide the story to its thrilling conclusion.”
I think this is a game I could get into but not until I play the first game. So, later.
Book of Korvald
Price: $19.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-19
“Guide a tormented Norse scribe and in his desperate alliance with a parasitic eldritch entity!
With his family slain and village destroyed, Korvald is branded a heretic and seemingly condemned to death, but the truth of his torment is part of a bigger and more sinister agenda!

Truthfully, I don’t think I would enjoy this but someone else will.
Cargo Runner – Mars
Price: $9.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-19
“You deliver cargo – Mars decides if you survive
Cargo Runner: Mars puts you in charge of high-risk supply deliveries on the Red Planet.
Remote colonies depend on regular cargo shipments, but the routes are hostile. Alien ambushes, unstable delivery zones, and strict operational requirements turn every job into a test of speed, control, and decision-making.
Combat is direct. Step out of your vehicle, deal with the threat, collect what’s left, and move on.
Money earned unlocks new weapons, vehicles, and upgrades for future runs.
Progress is persistent. Upgrades and base improvements provide long-term advantages, rewarding repeated missions and exploration.
You deliver. Mars decides if you survive.”
I wouldn’t want to pay full price for this but I’ll definitely be keeping an eye on it for when it does go on sale.
Ys X: Proud Nordics
Price: $69.99
System: Switch 2
Release Date: 2-20
“Experience Adol and Karja’s unforgettable journey across Obelia Gulf with new quality of life improvements, then discover the new story centering around Öland Island, and the mysterious newcomers Canute and Astrid. And once you’re ready, challenge yourself in the devious, time-trial dungeon of Muspelheim, where every second counts. Your new adventure awaits! As the definitive edition of this critically acclaimed entry in the Ys series, Ys X: Proud Nordics offers all of the fast-paced combat and enthralling narrative of the original release, with new mechanics, a high-difficulty dungeon, and a brand-new storyline seamlessly integrated throughout the game.

Aboard their ship, the Sandras, Adol and Karja gather a trusty crew of friends and allies as they go head-to-head with the Griegr in one unforgettable journey!”
Amazon (paid link)
I’ve been a fan of Ys since (paid link) Ys VIII. Unfortunately I still haven’t beaten that entry but I did beat (paid link) Ys IX and did a review for it. I also went back and bought a lot of the games in the series, missing very few of them at this point. Anyway, I know i’ll be picking this up in the near future.
Stillborn Slayer
Price: $4.99
System: Switch
Release Date: 2-20
“Masterful roguelike combat in a dark fantasy settings
Stillborn Slayer is a dark fantasy action roguelike built around fast, punishing combat and replayable procedural runs.
Battle through a grim, hostile world filled with monstrous enemies, relying on skill, timing, and adaptability to survive. Death is expected — and progression comes from understanding the systems and improving with each attempt.
Procedural elements ensure that no two runs play exactly the same, making replayability a core part of the experience.”
I’m not too sure about this one myself but I’ll keep an eye on it for that price point.
