release date

The makers of tactical stealth game Mutant Year Zero are back with a new one called Corruption 2029. It looks a lot like Mutant Year Zero but with futuristic cyber-soldiers swapped in for mutant ducks and pigs. The game will be out February 17 on the Epic Game Store.

The Double Dragon & Kunio-kun Retro Brawler Bundle hits Switch, PS4, and PC on February 20. That’s a lot of words and even more games with the bundle containing three Double Dragon games and 15 Kunio-kun games (think River City Ransom), 11 of which are being localized for the first time.

The Outer Worlds is coming to Switch on March 6. The sci-fi shooter RPG came to PS4, Xbox One, and PC last year. While the game will have a retail version, the box will only come with a download code inside. It’s not the best choice, it’s Spacers Choice. 

The papercraft-looking adventure game Knights and Bikes is coming to Switch on February 6. It was good on PS4 and Steam when it released last fall, but the co-op mode in particular feels ideal for the Switch’s Joy-Con.

The post-apocalyptic Russian survival shooter collection Metro Redux will release on Switch on February 28, Deep Silver announced today. It includes the first two games in the series, Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light, which can be bought together or à la carte for $25 each.

Wargroove’s free Double Trouble DLC is coming to Switch, Xbox One, and PC on February 6, with the PS4 version to follow later. In addition to a new coop story campaign and units, the update will also add competitive quick play maps and more mission editor tools.

Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories about escaping a crumbling city is finally coming to PS4, Switch, and PC on April 7. The game was originally slated for PS3 but was cancelled after Japan was hit by an earthquake and tsunami back in 2011.

Gears Tactics is coming to Xbox One and PC (including on Steam) on April 28, 2020. Microsoft showed off a new trailer at the Game Awards tonight and the game looks exactly like you’d expect the baby of Gears of War and XCOM to.

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD rolls onto Steam on December 10. Not to be confused with our video producer, Super Monkey Paul Tamayo, Banana Blitz HD is a remake of the hit Wii game, only without all the motion controls and other Wii-ness. Also, Sonic is in it. 

Persona 5 Royal drops on Playstation 4 on March 31 so you can start and never finish the sprawling JRPG all over again. The special edition adds more characters, a new part of Tokyo to explore, and an additional semester of school because who doesn’t want that?

The strategy RPG series Langrisser is finally returning on March 10 in the form of remasters of Langrisser I and II for PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. The first game was previously the only one in the series to ever come West back in 1991 for the Sega Genesis.

Shovel Knight developer Yacht Club dropped some wonderful news overnight: Shovel Knight: King of Cards and Shovel Knight Showdown will both come out on December 10. The first, a bonus campaign to the original game, and the second, a multiplayer fighting game spinoff, were originally set to release last April.

Patrice Désilet’s Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey arrives on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on December 6. Read our review of the PC version of the human evolution simulator to help decide if that’s a good or bad thing.

The surprisingly good Iron Man VR game for PlayStation VR launches on February 28. The date was announced during the Marvel Games panel at New York Comic-Con. Hopefully that leaves Sony enough time to make me a limited edition red and gold PSVR bundle.

Turn-based survival game Overland finally has a release date and it’s not that far off, arriving on PC, Xbox One, PS4, and Switch on September 19. In Overland you travel across a post-apocalyptic landscape Oregon Trail-style in-between getting in tactical fights. We’ll find out soon if it’s as good as it sounds.
