As we enter the last full week of April, we're finally back to a busy release schedule again. This week's AAA title apparently had some last minute bugs squashed just this week, so let's hope the released game delivers on its promise. As for the rest of this week you can look forward to a VR horror shooter, a side scrolling action-adventure medtroidvania game, a Robin Hood wannabe game, a dungeon crawler you can play with friends online, a game about a hermit crab, a JRPG and finally a very sandy action RPG.
Manor Lords / This week's AAA release / Friday 26 April / Early Access
Manor Lords is a strategy game that allows you to experience the life of a medieval lord. Grow your starting village into a bustling city, manage resources and production chains, and expand your lands through conquest. Inspired by the art and architecture of late 14th century Franconia, Manor Lords prioritizes historical accuracy wherever possible, using it to inform gameplay mechanics and visuals alike. Common medieval tropes are avoided in favor of historical accuracy, in order to make the world feel more authentic, colorful, and believable. Steam Link
Convergence / This week's VR title / Monday 22 April / Early Access
Convergence is an immersive single-player VR shooter with survival and horror elements. Explore the Chernokamensk exclusion zone: scavenge for loot, fight bandits and hunt for mystical artifacts. However be sure to return to base before duskfall, for when night arrives the hunter becomes the hunted. Steam Link
Tales of Kenzera: ZAU / Tuesday 23 April
Wield the dance of the shaman. Reclaim your father's spirit. Brave the beautiful and treacherous land of Kenzera with the God of Death in Tales of Kenzera: ZAU, a metroidvania-style adventure crafted by Surgent Studios. Steam Link
Bellwright / Tuesday 23 April / Early Access
