Overland’s concept is pretty interesting as you require putting yourself in a particular situation and think hard before making a decision as the entire group’s life is dependent on that.

  1. The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening (September 2019)

Released on Game Boy 25 years ago, The Legend of Zelda is by no means a strange name in the gaming society. Nothing like the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Link’s Awakening will make you feel pretty much nostalgic. This is because it is a completely new remastering of the classic Game Boy version. However, you must not take it simply as remastering as the developers have completely overhauled the game with a new style exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
