Despite the high number of games that have been released and several well-publicised delays, things are looking good this particular month.

Although a majority of the games are to be released this month, many of them reboots, sequels, and rereleases, gamers are set for an enjoyable ride.

Rumbleverse

Forty players are going to fight each other in this free-to-play brawler battle royale game from a third-person perspective to become the final survivor. Players have no access to any guns or other weapons in the game, which concentrates on melee fighting. You can utilise a variety of basic attacks, such as punches, kicks, and elbow drops, as well as weaponry like chairs and baseball bats.

Players have to keep inside a constricting circle, just like in other battle royale games. A timer will start ticking down from 10 whenever the player leaves the circle. Once the timer approaches zero, you will be eliminated.

Cult of the Lamb

The main character of this rogue-like action-adventure game is a possessed lamb who was saved from death by a stranger titled 'The One Who Waits' and must pay back the favour by winning over the stranger's followers. Here, you will be entrusted with founding your cult amid a nation of false prophets and will need to go to mysterious locations to expand your membership and disseminate the "Word" to become the sole genuine cult leader.

Once you have successfully brainwashed your followers, you can give them jobs that suit your preferences, but you will need to keep them on board by giving sermons that reaffirm their faith in The One Who Waits. You can increase the size of your cult's settlement as more members join. As your cult expands, you can enlist the aid of your followers in combat, and pray to The One who Waits to strengthen your cult and grow your town.

I Was a Teenage Exocolonist

This is a time-looping narrative role-playing game which allows you to relive your teenage years but on an alien planet where you get to explore, grow up, and fall in love as well.
