Nintendo Download: Building, Bit by Bit

A pretty big week on the Switch brings MySims: Cozy Bundle, LEGO Horizon Adventures, Dragon Quest HD-2D Remake, Stray, and more.

Brush up on your Simlish

The Sims are back, kinda, as this week brings MySims: Cozy Bundle to Nintendo‘s Switch. Now, this isn’t quite The Sims that PC players might be used to. Including two games, MySims: Cozy Bundle is a lot cuter than the standard series of life-sims, but also has an expanded scope. Players are able to craft furniture and even develop their towns.

Past that, LEGO Horizon Adventures is a game that we assume more than a few PlayStation fans have been looking forward to. A LEGO adventure (obviously), LEGO Horizon Adventures brings heroine Aloy into the blocky-verse with all the trimmings. While that game is packed full of robo-animals, a real animal is the focus of Stray, which finally brings the feline adventure to the Switch this week.

There’s much more though, including the gorgeous looking Dragon Quest HD-2D Remake. If you love the classic JRPG series, this is one that you need to check out, as the remake carries that iconic 80s form-factor back to life, with some sharp modern flourishes.

Scroll down to check out all of the above, plus a massive list of smaller releases. You never know when something might catch your eye.
