Survive the post-apocalypse in Rage 2 or get spooky with the Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Nintendo Switch ports of the Resident Evil series.
Spring is in the air and May is almost here. Though it’s bright and sunny out, the slate of video games is getting dark and spooky with the Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Nintendo Switch ports of Resident Evil 1, 4, and 0. You can also conquer China in Total War: Three Kingdoms or explore a post-apocalyptic world of Rage 2. There’s also a cheerier game for the whole family to enjoy: Team Sonic Racing.
Rage 2 — May 14
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC
The world of Rage 2 is overrun with mutants and ruled by a group known as the authority. As Walker, you can lay waste to both of these factions with guns and powerful Nanotrite abilities. You can also drive any vehicle you see in the open world, opening up plenty of roadkill opportunities.
Castlevania Anniversary Collection — May 16
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC, Switch
The Castlevania Anniversary Collection is loaded: the $20 bundle includes Castlevania, Simon’s Quest, Dracula’s Curse, Super Castlevania IV, The Adventure, Belmont’s Revenge, Bloodlines, and Kid Dracula–and this is the first time Kid Dracula has come to the West. The collection also includes an ebook full of artwork from all eight games.
Resident Evil 1/4/0 — May 21
Available on: Switch
Nintendo Switch is getting a batch of games this month too, but these three Resident Evil titles are all sold separately. The original game stars Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine in the Spencer Mansion, 0 is a prequel featuring Rebecca Chambers and Billy Coen in an abandoned facility, and 4 sees Leon Kennedy searching for the president’s daughter in Spain.
Team Sonic Racing — May 21
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC, Switch
As the name implies, Team Sonic Racing is about winning together–but not always by coming in first place. Other game modes challenge you to collect rings or get the fastest lap time. You can customize every character’s kart to your liking too.
Total War: Three Kingdoms — May 23
Available on: PC
The long-running strategy series is headed to China for the first time, where 12 different factions can battle for control. Victory is achieved by capturing a city or by slaying the opposing army’s generals. It’s not that simple, though, as the generals you choose create certain limitations for the types of troops you command during battle.
