EDGE Magazine, one of the most respected voices in the gaming industry, has revealed its latest review scores in issue #422, published for May 2026.
Known for delivering critical, in-depth analysis on video games and hardware, EDGE’s May issue highlights several titles available or set to launch on the Nintendo Switch, eShop, and beyond.
Among the featured games, Resident Evil Requiem and Mario Tennis Fever have garnered particular attention due to their prominence within the Nintendo Switch lineup and their developers’ storied histories.
