Well, it has officially begun the gaming calendar is getting clustered again and it will remain that way for the foreseeable future as major heavy hitters release alongside indie darlings, and at times, even all on the same day.
Dead Island 2 is the first of those, and the long-delayed game has actually seen impressive sales numbers in its first few days and encouraging reviews as well. Can it revitalize the franchise and spawn more sequels out of its early success?
Also, another big game releasing soon has a demo, Street Fighter 6, and Marc played it. Marc gives his thoughts on its content and if it leaves him encouraged for the game’s release on June 2.
Diablo IV is also getting one final beta May 12-14, (which wouldn’t you know it, is when Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom releases). Horizon Forbidden West not only just released its Forbidden Shores DLC, but it also added accessibility options to the base game too. Guerrilla also confirmed the existence of Horizon 3. Oh, and Sony acquired yet another studio too.
Records are broken again for the Super Mario Bros. Movie, while Shigeru Miyamoto basically confirms that more Nintendo films are coming down the line. Nintendo also had an Indie World showcase and Sean goes through some favorites he has from the digital event as well.
