Out this week: Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Nioh 2, Call of Duty: Warzone, My Hero One’s Justice 2, Dead or School, more

We imagine the developers and publishers behind this week’s releases carefully picked this week to launch their titles in order to avoid next Friday’s double whammy of DOOM Eternal and Animal Crossing.
