This time the unexpected allies are venturing into the stars for an intergalactic adventure. Offering colorful strategy combat, and plenty of planets to explore, Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is one of the most overlooked games on Nintendo Switch. This deal gets you a pair of Digimon RPGs in one package. Each one offers a deep, memorable story campaign as well as turn-based battles and plenty of Digimon to raise and add to your party. This family-friendly Lego-fied version of Horizon Zero Dawn expertly balances the former's adorable aesthetics and customization with the latter's character-focused story and tactical combat. As we said in our Lego Horizon Adventures review, this is one of the more action-packed Lego games. But despite its greater emphasis on combat, the game never takes itself too seriously, offering the trademark comedic tone you'd expect from a Lego title.

Just be warned, Persona 5 Royal will consume all your free time once it gets its hooks in. One of the most beloved Dragon Quest games has hit the Nintendo Switch thanks to this HD-2D remake. This version's pixel sprites and 3D backgrounds look truly stunning, and as the first chapter in the Erdrick Trilogy story, this game is one every Dragon Quest fan needs to experience. MLB The Show is back with a new roster, game modes and more. Our MLB The Show 25 review mentioned that while there are some upgrades in tow, there probably isn't enough new content here to entice players who already have The Show 23 or 24. But if you haven't played in a couple of years, this version of the big-hitting baseball franchise is tons of fun. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is one of the most popular Switch games available. Even years after its launch it continues to dominate the best-sellers chart. This means any form of discount is pretty rare, but you can currently save on this must-have family-friendly hit. And if you want even more courses, be sure to pick up the Booster Pack DLC that adds 48 new tracks including fan-favorite picks. Ultimate by name, ultimate by nature. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate brings together every single fighter in the franchise's history for a showdown of epic proportions. This hugely popular party game is now on sale. This side-scrolling adventure is a wonderfully refreshing spin on the classic Mario formula. Venturing to the Flower Kingdom, you'll discover stage-altering Wonder Flowers which can warp levels, create new platforming challenges and even turn Mario into an elephant. Playable in up to four-player co-op, Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a platforming marvel for the entire family and one of the very best Nintendo Switch games you can play now. Civilization VII makes some of the biggest changes yet to the established formula, and while not all of these additions are necessarily for the best, it remains one of the deepest strategy games on the market. This is a game you can play for literally thousands of hours.

10 best turn based RPGs to play if you liked Clair Obscur Expedition 33
Image via: Kepler Interactive If You're captivated by the turn-based depth of Clair Obscur Expedition 33 with its heaviness of storytelling and full-bodied drama character-driven, you are not alone. Within the rich lore of RPGs, Clair is reminiscent of an "age-old tradition" in terms of the early days when the genre combined fantasy storytelling with strategic combat inspired by Dungeons and Dragons. Today's turn-based RPGs offer an array of themes and styles and run across numerous platforms-from sword and sorcery to wild sci-fi adventures. Here are ten of the most amazing turn-based RPGs capturing the essence of Clair: games where strategy and story walk hand in hand. 1. Persona 5 Royal If you enjoy the aspect of inner conflict brought about by external danger in Clair, then Persona 5 Royal promises to give a twisted maze of turn-based diving and teenage life management. High school friendships during the day are disrupted by surreal places that compel the player to wrestle for hearts at night. The whole social simulation directly imports combat power; therefore, each relationship is tactical as well as a psychological journey. Persona 5 Royal Review 2. Pokémon Legends: Arceus by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Google Brain Co-Founder Andrew Ng, Recommends: Read These 5 Books And Turn Your Life Around Blinkist: Andrew Ng's Reading List Undo Unlike the standard gym badge quest format, Pokémon Legends: Arceus breaks the mold by embedding a historical construct in the Pokémon world. The combat is turned-based and yet streamlined and satisfying, with dynamic encounters and open-world exploration. It's a game about the discovery of creatures, but also about discovering oneself in the same way as Clair unravels his identity through action. 3. Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age This one's for you to experience classic turn-based RPG design at its best. Dragon Quest XI S will give you comfort peppered with surprises. It has everything a player could hope for out of a well-told tale in a fantasy world: richly drawn landscapes, and an engaging story line with nostalgic gameplay that appears to be time-tested. 4. Metaphor: ReFantazio The brainchild of Persona 5, where the stakes are thrice higher. It transports you into an arcane fantasy realm where the choices you press shape the kingdom and conscience. It features a multipronged turn-based mechanic around some "Archetypes," and it encourages you to slug it out with inner demons as well as outer foes. It's a spiritual cousin to Clair, though, one that trades modern angst for medieval uncertainty. Metaphor: ReFantazio - Official Launch Trailer 5. AFK Journey AFK Journey is an idle RPG with powerful visuals and tactical depth of party customization, nothing short of a joyous experience for the casual player. It is more relaxed than Clair, yet maintains a smart balance between Strategic Depth and narrative-time, making you develop connections with characters across rivaling factions in a world on the verge of collapse. 6. Sea of Stars From the makers of The Messenger, this RPG is a love letter to old-school RPGs such as Chrono Trigger and takes the retro gameplay and gives it a shiny coat of modern graphics. This combat system rewards you for timing and synergy, and the story speaks of friendship and sacrifice. Like Clair, it understands that nostalgia is not enough-the story and timing matter equally. 7. Golden Sun If you have enjoyed the dichotomy of magic and technology present in Clair, then Golden Sun lets you enter a tightly knitted fantasy world filled with puzzles, elemental powers, and psychic mysteries. It was ahead of its time in melding exploration with tactical spellcasting, and it somehow still manages to feel fresh many decades later. 8. Baldur's Gate 3 Baldur's Gate 3 is a tactical RPG that allows unprecedented freedom to shape a story. Every choice reverberates against your party's relationships, the political tensions of its world, and the outcome of turn-based skirmishes. Like Clair, it is a game of consequences-moral, personal, and strategic. 9. Honkai: Star Rail MiHoYo's free sci-fi RPG will leave you into a masterclass in sleek presentation and addictive, turn-based combat. Actually, it doesn't cost cents but gives itself to cinematic storytelling, character arcs, and punchy and smart battles. Perfect for Clair fans who want a futuristic interpretation on well-known subjects. Honkai: Star Rail Two-Year Anniversary Special Animation: On the Journey 10. Expeditions: Rome If political tensions and personal duties made Clair attractive, then Expeditions: Rome would sound like a natural progression. As a Roman legatus, you balance the weight of empire with loyalty to your comrades in a game that combines battlefield tactics with branching narrative decisions. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 proved that turn-based RPGs can still tell important tales while also putting people to the test. These ten games-from indie darlings to AAA masterpieces-each carry a part of what made them special: character-driven drama, thoughtful battle system dissection, and world-building baited with emotional assets. Whether you are new to the genre or returning once more, you shall find rich turn-based worlds lying in wait for your exploration.
