Big game season is finally, undeniably here. October of 2018 holds triple-a blockbusters aplenty, like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Red Dead Redemption 2, Forza 4 and loads more.

Big time

This has actually been a good year in general for game releases. We’ve seen lots of good titles arrive, even hitting retail in months that don’t normally have them. The upcoming season has also been ramping up for a few months now. Both August and September were solid, after all. Buy even with all that, October is something else.

We start off with games like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, hitting this Friday, and then roll for the next four weeks. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, LEGO DC Super Villains, Soul Calibur VI, Starlink, and a plethora of additional excellent-looking games are all on the way in this spookiest month on the calendar.
