April 2019 gave us a nice library of games including big ones such as Days Gone and Mortal Kombat 11. The collection of games in May 2019 is not so huge but there are some exciting ones to look forward to.
Remakes of Resident Evil, Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil Zero are being ported for the Nintendo Switch. The Assassin's Creed III Remaster which was released for the PS4, Xbox One and PC earlier is also coming to the Nintendo Switch.
Remakes are not the only games releasing this year. Here is a list of 6 new games to look forward to in May 2019.
#6. Cricket 19 - The Official Game of the Ashes
Available on: Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One
Released by: Big Ant Studios
Date: May 2019
Cricket 19 is an upcoming cricket-based video game. It follows the legendary tournament of the Ashes and simulates the gameplay of the sport of cricket, much like FIFA and NBA (but not as content heavy).
The game is being made in collaboration with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB). Unfortunately Big Ant has not provided a set release date, only that it will be releasing in May 2019. Plans may be delayed at their discretion.
#5. Team Sonic Racing
Available on: Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One, PC
Released by: Sega
Date: 21 May 2019
Team Sonic Racing is quite similar to the popular Mario Kart series. Players race as characters from the Sonic series such as Sonic, Knuckles, Mr. Egghead and more. You also rely on power ups, tricks and drifting to leap ahead.
Team Sonic Racing is a little different because it's a co-op game, where you are in a team of racers instead of winning alone. Different game modes include time trials, point-based games, a single-player campaign as well as custom races.
#4. A Plague Tale: Innocence
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC
Released by: Focus Home Interactive
Date: 14 May 2019
A Plague Tale: Innocence is a beautifully designed adventure game which follows the story of two siblings fighting to survive the historic events of the Black Plague and Hundred Years War. It is a survival-based stealth game which allows you to control both characters.
The game involves players fending off rats and killing knights. Players can craft items and coordinate between the other character in case one character is busy.
#3. Total War: Three Kingdoms
Available on: PC
Released by: Creative Assembly
Date: 23 May 2019
Total War is back with their 12th game in the series, Total War: Three Kingdoms. It is a turn based strategy game that takes place in the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history. There are 12 factions in the game and the player can choose which one to play.
Total War: Three Kingdoms features a complex battle strategy and aids to your battle such as Generals and military units you can use. A new feature has been introduced which allows your generals to form social connections and relationships with others which will greatly influence your battle.
Unfortunately for console players, Total War: Three Kingdoms is only available on PC. If you're a fan of history and battle strategies, this game could be worth checking out. The Total War series has a lot of great entries you can choose from.
#2. Life is Strange 2 - Episode 3
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC
Released by: Square Enix
Date: 9 May 2019
While this is not a new game, Episode 3 of Life is Strange 2 is also due to release in May. The first Life is Strange game involved an emotional adventure with the power of reversing time.
Life is Strange 2 has a different story altogether where your character has telekinesis. The choices you make in the game affect the side character Daniel as well as the future progress of the game. These consequences also carry over to subsequent episodes.
#1. Rage 2
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, PC
Released by: Bethesda Softworks
Date: 14 May 2019
Rage 2 is a post-apocalyptic first-person shooter developed by Avalanche Studios, who also made Just Cause 3. The first Rage from 2011 is not related to the second except for the world it shares.
The huge open world can be explored by futuristic vehicles. The player's suit can be upgraded with the help of Nanotrite (which was also featured in Rage) and provides them with different upgrades they can use during combat.
Rage 2 is a single player game with no multiplayer features or loot boxes.
