Welcome back to This Week In Games Australia, your look ahead at everything you’ll be playing in the next seven days. This week, it’s all about Friday with two mammoth titles landing together — Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Bros Wonder. You’ll be able to read our Spider-Man 2 review at 1 AM AEDT on Tuesday morning.
Beyond Spidey and Mario, however, there’s still quite a bit on. Sonic Superstars launches this week, a throwback to classic Mega Drive era Sonic with a modern aesthetic, putting the ol’ Blue Blur back in conversation with his old rival Mario. The excellent Devolver indie Wizard With A Gun drops this week and well worth a look. Hellboy: Web of Wyrd arrives — that art style is chef’s kiss, but will it be any good? Endless Dungeon and Hot Wheels Unleashed 2 drop together, and Slay the Princess finally, finally arrives.
