Coming up: The games of (the rest of) October

We’re a tad late with this month’s new-games feature, but it’s still plenty packed with games like Battlefield, Guardians of the Galaxy and more.

Happy Halloween!

Okay so maybe we’re not quite that late. We’re officially in the second full week of October. And yes, we sort of forgot to post the Coming Up last week, when it should have run. But nonetheless, that will not stop this mighty train from rolling, and telling all of you the best of the games to come, over the next three weeks.

Before we get to those though, and there are plenty, let’s recap the top titles that arrived last week. As with the rest of the month, there were quite a few biggies in that opening 7 days.

Those games included Metroid Dread for the Switch, as well as the Switch OLED Model console. Such an imaginative name there. Far Cry 6 also saw launch for a spread of platforms, as did Super Monkey Ball, the surprise Alan Wake Remastered, and FIFA 22. Hell Let Loose also hit consoles, bringing its brand of multiplayer WWII mayhem with it.

See? Lots. And much, much more to come. Scroll down for the highlights.
