Do you miss «Red Dead Redemption»? In «The Legend of California» you can also live out your Wild West fantasies - either alone or with other cowboys and cowgirls.

When the announcement trailer for «Pickmon» was released, the developer studio Pocketgame must have asked itself: «How can we get sued by Nintendo as quickly as possible?»

Yes, I know. This is not a game trailer. But this is my list and I'll do what I want. Shortly before release, Nintendo shows a final trailer for the new Mario film.

Date: 1 April
Donald Glover takes on the role of Yoshi in the new Mario film. Will he also make a guest appearance in «Yoshi and the Mysterious Book»?

At first glance, it is reminiscent of open-world games such as «GTA». In reality, however, «Samson» is a linear crime drama with a strong focus on driving and fighting.

This horror game takes a refreshing approach. Other genre representatives usually severely restrict your mobility in order to create a creepy atmosphere.

The fact that the opponents are weird dinosaur monsters makes the game even more interesting for me.
Date: Summer
