This Week In Games: The Ultimate Smash

It’s the week most of you have been waiting for. It’s Smash time. But for those that don’t own a Switch, or don’t care about Smash at all, there are some interesting titles you’ll want to keep an eye on.

The first that comes to mind is Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden, an XCOM-style adventure featuring a bunch of mutants (including a duck) made by PAYDAY‘s lead designer and former Hitman leads. The trailer is bonkers, check it out towards the end of this article.

Nostalgia fans will enjoy the launch of the PlayStation Classic – if you’re prepared to drop $149.95 – and anyone who needs an explosion or four in their life will have Just Cause 4 to appreciate. Hellblade also gets a retail release locally.
