April 2018 was quite a quiet month when it came to the number of high profile releases, but the likes of God of War and Yakuza 6 will ensure that it’s remembered come the end of the year. May 2018 is similarly light on high profile releases, State of Decay 2 and Detroit: Become Human being the two standouts, but there’s a lot of smaller titles coming to consoles, especially on the Nintendo Switch.
