Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is one of the headline releases of the month, since it brings back one of Ubisoft’s most popular pirate settings with a full remake built on the Anvil engine. The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu stands out for its co-op horror structure and sanity mechanic, which gives it a more distinctive identity than a typical survival game. Splatoon Raiders is also important because it expands Nintendo’s Splatoon universe with a more exploratory single-player focus on Switch 2.
