15 Best Nintendo Switch Games

Looking at this game, you’d be forgiven for thinking that it came out 5 years ago, but appearances can be incredibly misleading, and this is the case with Hollow Knight.

It might be a 2D platformer, but from the get-go it has so much more to offer. This game has an incredible amount of content, along with the freedom to act however you want and explore the map in your own way, as this platformer doesn’t shoehorn you in towards certain plot points and areas like other titles.

A good comparison to the expansiveness of this game is actually Dark Souls. While it might not be nearly as difficult as a FromSoftware game, Hollow Knight has a plethora of secret tunnel, linking areas and challenging boss fights in every direction. But the real highlight in this game is the atmosphere it creates through delicate and beautiful music as well as stunning graphics.

Easily one of the most charming games I’ve ever played, Hollow Knight is one of those titles that came out of nowhere and became an instant classic.
