Any CAVE shooter especially the dodonpachi or mushihimesama series. Also Psikyo Shooters are all mostly good Gunbird, Samurai Aces, Strikers 1945, Tengai the list goes on. I think most of these are available on the Switch at a reasonable price.

@phbz Didn't realise 12 minutes was on Gamepass. Microsoft have been killing it with these day one indies lately.

THE FINAL STATION. Got this with Games with Gold one Month. Never really heard much talk about this one. Its a pixel art side scrolling shooter with Train simulation and light survival elements. The story definitely goes places although I'm not sure what it was all about, it stayed with me for a while after thinking about it. Fans of Inside might get a kick out of this one. It's only about 4-5 hours long and not too difficult.

I'm going to check out HADES when it comes to Gamepass. I've tried several Roguelikes before but none of them have kept me interested. With all the praise this has got maybe this will be the one to hook me.

PSYCONAUTS 2. Played quite a bit of the first one and though it was quirky and cool. The PS4 port wasn't great though, framerate was a mess. I'm excited to see a psyconauts in 2021 with all the modern technology available.

BALDO. This looks lovely, previews have been quite positive. Studio Ghibli meets Zelda it's the pitch. I wait for the reviews but I hope this one gets traction.

Just waiting on Halo Infinite campaign being pushed to 2022. Wouldn't be surprised if Dying Light 2 gets a Last minute delay aswell.

@el-shmiablo I agree that building a studio around a franchise isn't a great idea, but Gears 5 is far from mediocre it's actually pretty great & I'm not the biggest Gears fan.Id love them to try out an new IP though.

@phbz I found my house (sort of) crashed a plane into it (unmanned drone) killed my family. I've claimed the life insurance now I flying to Vietnam to start my new life. Its fun to roleplay

Good that they're not pushing it out when it's not ready. Saying that September's when game releases start heating up. I'm sure it'll be fine due to its budget price and charm.

@phbz Ohhh a little harsh, but you're spot on. Its pretty, has a great soundtrack and lore, but the gameplay is undercooked. I'd be keeping an eye out to see what this developer does next seems that they have some talent, just needs a little refinement. Pretty ambitious for a small indie studio.

Bloodroots- Ended up really enjoying this one even though my controller nearly went through the TV in anger a few times. Even got an achievement for dying 100 times in one encounter. Saying that the game is a fair challenging without being cheap. Gameplay is so satisfying & doesn't outsay its welcome. Only 1.30% completion rate on Xbox doesn't look like many people stick with it.
