Luigi's Mansion 3 Is One of Nintendo's Best Switch Games (30% off - $41.99)

Luigi running scared from a ghost in Luigi's Mansion 3.

While the Luigi's Mansion games might not be the most bustling of Nintendo's series with only three games released over a two-decade period, each game has been quite successful and adored by fans. If it wasn't obvious from the title, Luigi takes the starring role in this game over his brother, Mario. The storyline follows Luigi as he explores a haunted hotel after his friends are taken captive by ghosts.

Luigi's Mansion 3 has single and multiplayer modes, online and local, so it's a great experience for one person or a group. Players should know that while the game is themed in a spooky manner, it's definitely not a horror game, so it's perfect for anyone looking for a fun action adventure with an iconic sidekick at its helm.

Dark Souls: Remastered Is Perfect for Players Looking for a Challenge (50% off - $19.99)

Dark Souls Remastered

Widely known as one of the hardest games of all time, Dark Souls: Remastered is a ported version of the first game that was brought over to the Switch a few years ago. In the game, the player is a cursed human who sets out to uncover the mystery surrounding other undead humans like them. With an untraditional narrative compared to more typical stories wherein the details are offered through key plot points, this game's story is told through the environment and dialogue with NPCs.

While there is no shortage of Star Wars games, KOTOR II is one of the most well-known and arguably the best. KOTOR II picks up five years after the events of the first game and follows The Exile, a former Jedi Knight who had been expelled from the Order shortly before it had been almost entirely wiped out by the Sith four thousand years before the events of Episode I - The Phantom Menace. This game is a classic role-playing experience set in the world of Star Wars with a bit of a darker tone than other stories in the same universe.

Skyward Sword HD Is a Terrific Zelda Game That Inspired the Very Best (30% off - $41.99)

This 2021 remaster of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD was a huge success, selling millions of copies. It's said that the criticism of the original game's traditional linear narrative was taken into account when the developers were creating Breath of the Wild. However, Skyward Sword is a great experience in itself and one of the best games in the series.

The title's story is typical of Zelda games, with the protagonist, Link, discovering that he's a hero and setting out on a path to save Princess Zelda. This is the perfect game to keep fans who are waiting for the release of Tears of a Kingdom busy in the meantime.
