Read excerpt
by Jordan Rudek - October 1, 2026, 9:00 am EDT If you asked for more RPGs on Switch 2, another finger just curled on the monkey paw. The latter half of 2026 has seen an absolutely deluge of RPG ports to Switch 2 courtesy of Square Enix.

Read excerpt
by Jordan Rudek - September 3, 2026, 9:00 am EDT Discuss in talkback! You already took my damn money. Do you need to take it again?
