Also added this month: The Evil Within, Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom, Paradise Killer, Dishonored: Definitive Edition.
Riders republic. Nice. I never bought it but played beta twice. Good fun openworld game.
I have 3 other mates who like playing multiplayer games. Is this something we will all enjoy together?
It’s a really fun game when there’s a lot of people on but the player base dropped a lot compared to launch. This should help increase the amount online drastically.
It’s definitely a - I want to chill with my friends type of game so definitely check it out! Also it’s a huge improvement over Steep
Sounds good. Also, Horizon Forbidden West Burning Shores DLC coming a day after. I'll be more likely spending time on that DLC first. But will join when free.
Riders Republic is a ton of fun and one of the best things Ubisoft has done in recent years IMO.
The music and acting are obnoxious, which I just turn down... but it's so much just freeriding mountain bikes or other stuff across the mountains. I haven't played w friends, but I imagine it would be a ton of fun in MP. Very underrated game!
I kept getting caught up in other games so I never got around to buying Doom Eternal. If it's good I'll still buy it so i can keep it. The reboot was awesome, i think i played through it about 5 times, and platinumed it.
Same here, I've had Doom Eternal on my wishlist for a long time. I'm definitely jumping in considering the free PS5 upgrade they released.
It is a lot of fun. First FPS in a while that has really grabbed me. And I love FPS games. C’mon Killzone/Resistance series remasters/remakes/sequels…anyt hing.
I agree , Sony has not produced a single player FPS campaign in about 8 years. I already played DOOM Eternal which was awesome.
A whole lotta Bethesda titles in this lineup
Sackboy also got included as well despite already being as Essential title
Regarding sackboy, you're right... That's confusing. At least wait until it's not in essential, as it's impossible to have extra without essential.
Damned if you do and damned if you don't with that one I think. When a former monthly free game goes into the subscription catalog at a later date it also gets criticism, so may as well just add it straight away for people who don't claim it going forward I guess.
Hopefully the claim on the game counts as a essentials claim so when the game leaves the catalogue it doesn't leave the players library.
I found a similar situation frustrating I played fallout 76 when it was introduced as a premium game a month or so later it was a essentials game and I could not repurchase it so I'll lose the game when it leaves the Library
Spiderman is in the titles leaving Extra in May. Guess 1st party titles aren't guaranteed to stay
That's just the way of subscription services in general, titles come and go, but I'm sure it'll be back. Maybe it's a Quantum Break deal where it's just a license refresh?
It's one of the reasons I fear a subscription/digital only future. I don't want the platforms telling me what I can and can't play at any given time and waiting of tenterhooks for games I actually want to be available.
Oh boy, that's making me want to jump back into Returnal! Not that I'd mind buying the game, love it.
Great Month, own most of them but looking fwd to trying monstor boy, nice sto have EW in my collection now and some wolfeinstein.
Despite lacking Call of Duty, the Nintendo Switch has many great shooters to replace it. Here are some of the best shooters on Switch.
Anyone else have a small but noticeable delay in aiming on Borderlands 2? Anytime I move the aiming reticle, there is maybe a quarter of a second (250ms) delay before it moves. Happens in both Handheld and Docked.
I haven’t bought one shooter for Switch. It’s just to weak to play them good enough. I really don’t play my Switch at all anymore. Going to sell them and wait for Switch 2.
BLG writes, "There can be only one best Wolfenstein game. Since the franchise’s debut in 1981, the Wolfenstein series has graced our gaming platforms for over forty years. It’s hard to believe, but it’s true! In honor of that legacy, we’re going to list some of the best Wolfenstein games and the worst. That’s right: it’s the Wolfenstein games ranked."
Scheiße! Nein.
Return to Castle Wolfenstein is the best in the series. After that:
New Order
New Colossus
Old Blood
I really wish they'd remake Return to Castle Wolfenstein from the ground up. Easily the best of them all.
Pretty sure DOOM already proved it can.
Barely, but yes.
...which proves that when the next gen consoles come in two years, the Switch will have an even garder time getting third party support without building the games from scratch.Let's see how that turns out. Or maybe...Switch Pro ;) ?
If you are an avid fan of Vaseline, sure.
Barely, and that's the point. When a game and engine that is the best case scenario for Switch routinely goes down to 640x360 at 30 fps, and still needs other compromises, you know it's underpowered. This is just more confirmation of what we always knew.
This was the point people who wanted it as a CONSOLE were furious about. No power. Because it IS literally the power of last decade. 2004-5 CPU and ~2006 GPU.
Those that want it as a handheld, it sounded great.
But those that want it as a console are screwed.
Sadly, many blurred the lines saying it could be a console and IS a console. Then when it does bad, they always say.... but it's a handheld.
