Frequently asked questions

What is the best game of 2026 on Switch 2?
By critic score, Mewgenics (91 out of 100). Scores change as more reviews arrive, so the order can move.
Is this the Game of the Year list?
No. This ranks by critic score only. The Game Awards and other shows pick their own nominees; our Game Awards 2026 page lists those once they are announced.
Why is a game missing?
It either has no critic score yet, has too few ratings so far to be ranked fairly, has not been released, or came out in another year.
