The game also features the return of chain wrestling and has added new combat features and match types for players to explore.

March 20th:

Assassin's Creed Shadows

The fourteenth major instalment in the Assassin's Creed series and the successor to 2023's Assassin's Creed Mirage, Shadows will be set in feudal Japan as AC continues to explore and develop different historical periods into their games.

Initially pencilled in for a November release at the end of 2024, it was delayed until February initially before being delayed once again until March 20 to ensure the release of a fully polished final product.

Just like previous titles in the series, Shadows is an action-adventure game with the option of stealth.

Featuring two protagonists, one male and one female, in an open world with an environment designed to feel alive, with changing weather and times of day, the game is highly anticipated and the biggest AAA release of the month.

This game will cost £69.99 for the standard edition upon release.

March 25th: Killing Floor 3

Killing Floor 3 is a survival horror video game developed and published by Tripwire Interactive. 

The sequel to 2016’s Killing Floor 2, KF3 supports both solo play and four-player multiplayer, like the classic Left for Dead games, in which players must combat waves of zombie-like creatures.

In terms of content the game will have seven maps, three difficulty modes, and three boss encounters, as well as 30 upgradable levels for each specialist playable character.

This game will cost £34.99 upon release.

March 27th:

Atomfall

This game has me excited as a major fan of the Fallout series, Atomfall is a survival game developed and published by Rebellion Developments. 

It is set in an alt-history 1960’s England where the Windscale nuclear disasters turned the country into a nuclear wasteland. 

The game is inspired by Fallout, with developers specifically crediting New Vegas as inspiration, with the alternate-history retro vibe and the nuclear setting. This can be endearing to Brit’s like myself as we can so often be left out of the settings with major releases and have done pretty much since GTA London (1997) other than the flop of Watch Dogs: Legion (2020).

Hopefully, this game lives up to the hype and is the gateway for more British-set games to be released in future.

This game will cost £54.99 upon release.
