Hollow Knight
This one’s for all you Metroidvania fans out there. Hollow Knight may have released on other platforms a while back, but its release on the Nintendo Switch has already introduced a swathe of new players to the title, and with good reason.
Players are taken on an adventure through ruins, complex cave systems, ancient temples, and plenty more as they fend off all manner of formidable enemies, and make friends with peculiar creatures. The further you go on your adventure, the more skills and abilities you’ll have at your disposal, which in turn opens up more routes and areas for you to explore.
Once Hollow Knight has got its hooks in you, it’s difficult to pull yourself out of its labyrinth of paths and atmospheric world. Plus, the Switch version comes with all of the additional content packs from the get-go, so there’s plenty to work your way through here.
