Welcome, and happy “217th Anniversary of the revenge of the 47 Ronin“ week! You may all celebrate by playing a stealth game where you have to wait 2 years for the guards’ alert phase to cycle down.

The closer we get to Christmas, the more Santa-named games come out. Do not be tempted to buy your friend these games as a laugh. They are mere cracker-follies when you want genuine stocking-stuffers. I also warn against Terminator: Resistance. Games based on movies are bad again.

Shovel Knight: King of Cards brings a new King Knight campaign and a card battle mini-game called Joustus. Meanwhile, Shovel Knight: Showdown brings multiplayer. If you’ve never shovelled knight before, this week is as good a time as any.

Speaking of card battle games, Cardpocalypse is a charming one set in a primary school. You can change the rules of the game as you progress, creating a combination unique to your playthrough,

Path of Exile: Conquerors of the Atlas is ANOTHER big expansion, adding 5 new bosses and a host of other fixes and tweaks. Path of Exile’s steady drop of updates and expansions, plus the fact that you can play it for free, makes it a poster child for games as a service.

MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is on my “please be good” list. Who wouldn’t want a single-player, first-person mech combat game to be good? Early looks are promising, and I get excited when I see the combat through the cockpit HUD, but there’s also a lot they’re not showing us, like the dropship side of things. It’s been a rocky road getting here, with development delays and a last-minute exclusive deal with the Epic Games Store, but I’m hoping that once we start stomping around in a mech, ordering our lance around, everything will be alright. GOTW.

Here's the list, now in release-date order!

Huh, Ashen is being ported to Switch? Didn't expect that.

MechWarrior 5 is something I've completely ignore because I didn't want to hype myself up for it to be bad. I too hope it's good.

I still have to finish Ashen after I am done with Jedi Fallen!

Me either, but now I want it...

I want everything on Switch

Now I want my Microsoft Force Feedback stick again just like back in the Mechwarrior 2 days
