Can you believe we are already two months into the year ?! Well, thankfully, no matter how fast time passes, the Switch eShop seems to be offering dose after dose of massive digital content and February was no different.
These awards are aimed at highlighting the best of Nintendo’s digital store, bringing some love and attention to the games that could be so easily missed in Switch’s growing library .
So, let’s get started. Here are the best Switch eShop games in February 2021!

While those titles didn’t make our three favorites this month, they are still worth checking out.

Taking third place this month is UnderMine, a tasty roguelite that is easy to recommend. In our review, we said that the game “features clear mastery in its overall design, controls, updated systems and display, all of which come together to create a truly immersive experience,” a strong 9/10 award for him.
It will not change the mind of anyone who has grown tired of the roguelite genre, of course, but if you are ready for another adventure, this is well worth your time.

In second place is Ghosts ‘Goblins’ Resurrection, a game that stays true to its old school roots as it implements a new approach worth checking out. While several members of our team have been enjoying the time exploring the beautiful environments and their brutal game, remembering kinder times in the days of NES, our suggestion comes with a word of warning: sometimes, this is it in particular brutal, to the point where anyone who isn’t looking for a big challenge could put it off.
We urge you to read our full review if you are interested in exploring this Ghost ‘n Goblins love letter; if the sound of the problem does not bother you, go ahead and get this downloaded ASAP.

Bringing the gold this month, though, is Capcom Arcade Stadium. We feel that we are a bit misled here, as this game technically spans 30 games in one, but that just makes it quieter, South?
Capcom Arcade Stadium can be downloaded for free (initially), giving you access to a retro shooter, 1943. After that, you can pick up the 30 additional games, with the full set costing £ 29.99 / $ 39.99 in total. What you decide to buy is up to you, but we were surprised by the variety of games available – especially the hunters – and we came away feeling like package as good value for money.
If you’re interested in a retro game or Capcom history, you can’t go wrong downloading Arcade Stadium and browsing through its selection of games. Go ahead, treat yourselff.
As we decide our three eShop Choose the top three: As we reach the end of each month, Nintendo Life employees will be voting for their favorite titles from a list of games selected by the editorial team. To be eligible for this list, these games only need to be released as a Nintendo Switch eShop title in that particular month, and Nintendo Life needs a review; we select the accredited games based on their review scores. Employees are then asked to vote for three games they think deserve to sit at the very top of that list; the first option gets 3 points, the second option gets 2 points, and the third option gets 1 point. These votes are then raised to create a list of the top three, with the overall winner receiving that month’s top prize.
