Summer vacations are a great time to disconnect from work or studies and occupy your mind with other things. If you like video games, the Nintendo Switch is the perfect console for this time of year, since you can take it with you if you travel to another location without any problem. If you don’t know what to play this summer on your Switch, here are seven fantastic titles that deserve to be given a try.
7 games to rock the Switch this holiday
This is our selection. Try them!
Xenoblade Chronicles 3
The third installment of Xenoblade is without a doubt, the most anticipated launch of Nintendo Switch this summer. Already the second installment was a complete success, as it became the franchise’s best-selling title, and was also praised for its graphics. This game’s main novelty is that we can manage a team of seven members, compared to three in the previous game.
Metroid Dread
They say that there is no fifth evil, and in the Metroid saga, this statement seems to be taken seriously. This fifth installment in the main line of the Samus Aran saga is one of the best games in the Nintendo Switch catalog. The title has a story of ten and very good gameplay. It is also surely the most difficult Metroid you will face. If you’ve taken the pleasure of palming it playing Souls, Metroid Dread is for you.
Animal Crossing New Horizons + Happy Home Paradise
We fully understand that what you are looking for in summer is relax. And a good way to do it is on the Animal Crossing island. If you still don’t have New Horizons, you are missing one of the best installments of Animal Crossing. And, if you’ve already played it back in the day, we recommend you take a look at Happy Home Paradise, the DLC that allows you to become an interior decorator. If you have Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Packyou have it included there.
Fall Guys
This fantastic title has not only finally arrived on Nintendo Switch, but has also landed in a free —with micropayments and battle passes, yes—. You can download it right now in the eShop and it can give you more than one afternoon of fun and the odd snack with friends and family.
Triangle Strategy
If you are looking for a title to spend many hours on, nothing better than a JRPG. This title is a ‘tactics‘ full-fledged, with a very interesting story that will be modified by our decisions. Their HD-2D graphic style is very simple and attractive, as we saw in Octopath Traveler —another great game that we recommend yes or yes, although it is already a few years old—.
live a live
From the new JRPGs we are going to jump to the classics. And it is that this game by Takashi Tokita —which was behind titles like chrono trigger either Final Fantasy IV— it was a hit in its day, but it never made it out of Japan. The next July 22 his arrives remastered version with HD-2D graphics.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Kirby has taken many years to land his Tow Star in the three-dimensional world. But the truth is that the wait was worth it. this delivery retains Kirby mechanics lifelong, but adapted to a new way to play. It is a title where the exploration and in which the handling is caught in a matter of minutes. A good game for the youngest members of the household to discover the pink ball franchise.
