Our take on the South Park: Snow Day!, Nintendo Switch

South Park: Snow Day! is a 3D co-op action game from South Park Digital Studios, the team behind The Stick of Truth and The Fractured but Whole. You play the New Kid through a blizzard-canceled school day, fighting rival factions with upgradable weapons and special abilities. It is built around four-player co-op, with matchmaking or ally bots for solo play. Unlike the turn-based, story-heavy earlier South Park RPGs, this one is a short, combat-focused brawler, and reviewers say the humor and co-op chaos carry it more than its depth.
