McPixel 3 (Nov. 14)
Starting things off this week, we have McPixel 3. Developed by Sos Sosowski and published by Devolver Digital, you’ll never know what to expect from each mission in this outlandish save-the-day adventure. From barreling towards a cliff in a speeding train to plummeting towards the ground in a falling plane, there is no shortage of humorous mayhem to enjoy in this charming title.
Throughout the game, you’ll also take a break from the adventure with some genre-bending minigames. Whether you’re racing, fighting, shooting or playing sports, this game truly has it all. You can jump into McPixel 3 now on Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge (Nov. 15)
Slashing into your home next is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. Developed by Tribute Games and published by Dotemu, Shredder’s Revenge is an arcade-style beat ’em up, heavily inspired by the classic TMNT games for NES. Featuring the original voice actors from the 1987 cartoon, join the titular turtles and their allies on a new adventure to stop Shredder from world domination.
TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge also amps up the action with cooperative gameplay that allows for up to six players! In addition, your favorite turtles can also get help from other characters such as April O’Neil, Master Splinter and Casey Jones. While it first launched this June for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC, it now hits PlayStation 5 tomorrow.
Goat Simulator 3 (Nov. 17)
Then, the GOAT returns in Coffee Stain’s newest entry Goat Simulator 3. The second game in the series—no, that isn’t a typo; there is no Goat Simulator 2—once again allows players to create chaos as, well, a goat. This time around, you’ll have more challenges, events and areas to discover in this mayhem fueled sandbox adventure.
In addition, the new game also allows you start a herd with a new multiplayer feature, so you and your friends can wreak havoc together. With seven unique multiplayer mini-games and a variety of other shenanigans to get into, you and your friends can unleash your wild side in this ridiculously funny sandbox. You can live out your wildest goat fantasies on Thursday when Goat Simulator 3 stampedes onto PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet (Nov. 18)
Pokémon Scarlet & Violet are the next two adventures in Nintendo’s iconic franchise. Throughout these open-world adventures, you’ll travel through a beautiful world and encounter a variety of Pokémon, both new and old. In addition, the new game introduces all-new evolutions, ways your Pokémon can help you, new map functionality and more!
While the game’s won’t have fishing or cycling, it builds off the changes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Overall, these new titles will mark the next evolution of the whole franchise. You can catch ’em all in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet when it hits Nintendo Switch on Friday.
Resident Evil 3 (Nov. 18)
Although the Resident Evil 3 remake first debuted in 2020 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, Nintendo Switch players can soon experience Jill Valentine’s terrifying night in Raccoon City. In a similar vein to last week’s Switch port of Resident Evil 2, this title will offer Switch players the opportunity to live out the nightmares of Capcom’s follow-up remake.
Although many players feel that the shortened experience in RE3, compared to its original counterpart make it a weaker experience, the game still offers an intense survival horror experience. Nintendo Switch players can face off against the Nemesis in Resident Evil 3 when it crawls out on Friday.
The Devil in Me (Nov. 18)
Closing out this week is the next chapter in The Dark Pictures Anthology series. Developed by Supermassive Games and published by Bandai Namco, The Devil in Me aims to close out the first season in the series with a chilling adventure reminiscent of the Saw movies. The new game kicks off when a group of documentary filmmakers head to a modern-day replica of serial killer H.H. Holmes’ Murder Castle. However, the group soon learns that their gracious invitation to stay at the attraction bears a much darker secret.
Like Supermassive’s other titles, the game relies heavily on player choice as its core mechanic. Everything you say and do matters and drastically changes the outcome for the entire game. The Devil in Me creeps out on Friday for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC.
