We’ll go through each game with a short summary and why you should be pumped to play them at the next Game Truck party with your friends! Read on and enjoy the video game breakdowns:

Cadence Of Hyrule

Release date: June 13 (Switch)
Cadence Of Hyrule is an up-and-coming game, similar to A Link To The Past and Breath of the Wild, and it’s a great mix of these two far-off worlds. It features a Zelda scroller along with synth-style music, and all the classic action of an RPG and chock full of super-cute Wolfos, Lynels, and Gibdos (what could be better!). Every sprite, puzzle, slap of the bass and adorbs nod to the Crypt of the Necrodancer reinforces the charms of Hyrule. If you haven’t tried out this exciting game, it’s time to consider adding it to your video game collection. The verdict: this 2D spinoff is a great option for gamers everywhere.

Pokemon Sword and Shield

Release date: November 15 (Switch)

Pokemon Sword and Shield is a role-playing game made especially for the Nintendo Switch. Users seem to really enjoy this game and say it’s a great amount of fun.

Super Mario Brothers U Deluxe (Nintendo Switch)
