The fascinating virtual world, which involves fantasy characters, puzzles, combat, and what-not, is coming with some new releases that will grab everyone’s attention. Last year, we saw the launch of some flashy gaming hardware, and this year, there are games to enhance your experience. Look out!

  • New Pokemon Snap
    This much-awaited game was announced last summer, and people have been waiting eagerly for its release. This version is an upgrade from the 1999 N64 Pokemon Snap and is said to have more than 200 Pokemon species. The series showcases eight generations and also has Professor Mirror, who judges the photos you take of these Pokemon. You can explore different terrains like beaches, deserts, and jungles. You can play this on the Nintendo Switch after its release on April 30th.
  • Resident Evil Village
    Launching on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Series XIS, and PC, Resident Evil Village will be available on May 7th.
    This one is an immediate sequel to Resident Evil 7 and is specific to a village where all the action takes place. The story continues after a couple of years have passed from the prequel’s events. It will be bigger, better, and gorier than the prequel, so be prepared to get your hands dirty. There is also some mention of a big, bad werewolf-like character that the protagonist has to battle with. The familiar face of the character brings back all the last events but also generates curiosity about this whole new setting. Suspense and thrill—You got it all.
  • Knockout City
    This is a simple and fun game for anyone who wants to relax with some friends. Knockout City, a multiplayer game, is based in a futuristic city where players skate through the city and launch things at one another to get a win. Knockout City—a mix of dodgeball and Splatoon—is a fun multiplayer game.
    The release date of this game is May 21st, and it can be played on PC, Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, Series XIS.
