5 Games You Should Pick Up for Your New Nintendo Switch

Got yourself a brand-new Nintendo Switch? You have just given yourself access to the best portable console ever! Now, there are plenty of games to enjoy, but you might feel a little overwhelmed at the task. To help you out, we have listed out of some games that you should pick up for your Switch:

1. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Even if you have never played a single Zelda game before, we recommend that you pick up this one, especially if you are a huge fan of open-world exploration. While the gameplay is not one that might satisfy a large player base, the game itself is quite easy to get out of. That said, if you are looking for a game that you can hop right in and start playing without much hassle, then this is the game for you.

2. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

If you are more of a racer than an explorer, you should give Mario Kart 8 Deluxe a go. The Mario Kart franchise has been around for quite some time and is extremely popular, especially among friends and family. That is because of the game itself, where you race your opponents as characters from the Mario franchise using pick-ups to give yourself an advantage. It is an incredibly exhilarating game, and just plain fun!

3. Animal Crossing: New Horizons

If you would rather sit back, relax, and grind away, check out Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The game’s all about the chill vibes, a social simulator where you slowly grow your island and socialize with your friends. While there are some little bits and bobs about the game that can get your heart going, Animal Crossing is a relaxing game.

4. Bayonetta 1 and 2

Would you rather immerse yourself in insane destruction and chaos rather than relax on an island? Bayonetta 1 and 2 are two games you should try out. In this game, you are playing a kick-ass witch who is out there purely to beat angels. Both games are entertaining to play, but if you want one that is a little more graphically pleasing, then go with the second game. Otherwise, playing both will give you more time to just let it all out on the poor angels standing before you.

5. Hollow Knight

Looking for a platformer game that can give you an actual challenge? Well, there are a few of those, like Cuphead. However, we highly suggest that you try out Hollow Knight. With its beautiful design aesthetics and excellent gameplay, it is one that will give you the challenge and fun you have been longing for. 

Conclusion

While we have only recommended a few games for you to play on the Switch, there are many more that you should try out. If you’ve tried all the games that we’ve mentioned but are still looking for new games, check out the games based on your favorite genre. You will stumble across something that will not only interest you but also give you all the fun and excitement you crave from your Nintendo Switch.
