After what was a busy March, seeing the release of Sea of Thieves, Far Cry 5, and Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom, the slate of video game releases is beginning to quieten down once again as we move towards the Summer months. While there’s no shortage of releases in terms of numbers, with a lot of indie games making their way to Nintendo Switch, there’s only a few high profile titles to look forward to.
