While this week isn’t anywhere near as busy as last week, there’s still plenty of stuff to get stuck into – especially if you’re into racers and offbeat indies. There’s some significant DLC on the horizon, too.
Monster Hunter Rise players are likely counting down the days until the Sunbreak expansion, while those still notching up the hours in Outriders will be eager to play Worldslayer, which sees humanity’s last fight for survival. If you’re a newcomer, there’s a boost to jump straight to level 30.
Sticking with the theme of DLC, there’s Cuphead in the Delicious Last Course – the long-time-coming add-on which introduces a third playable character, new weapons, and a new boss-filled island.
The Legend of Bum-bo has also been in the works for some time. It’s the prequel to The Binding of Isaac that plays completely differently – it’s a decking building puzzle game, featuring cardboard cut-out style visuals. The PC version from 2019 went down well with fans.
A couple of racers are also upon us. EA’s F1 22 features the new Miami International Autodrome, along with this season’s redefined rule set. THQ Nordic’s MX vs ATV Legends, meanwhile, has new open environments, 16-player online support, and two-player split-screen.
Sometimes You has two new indies for this week, both of which we’ve spent some time with. Hillbilly Doomsday is a grungy – and exceedingly gory – run and gunner with 16-bit style visuals, while Almost My Floor is a twisted point-and-click adventure from the creators of Potata.
Other new releases include Ubisoft China’s mini-game package Rabbids: Party of Legends, horror adventure Fobia – St. Dinfna Hotel, NIS America’s Disgaea 6 Complete on PS5, and the anime-style fighter DNF Duel – starring characters from Dungeon Fighter Online. Or Dungeon & Fighter, if you happen to live in Korea.
