Some personal highlights:

On 6 March is Split Fiction, a spiritual successor to co-op adventure It Takes Two. It's based on the imaginations of the two characters and weaves between science fiction and fantasy themes.

On 11 March is Wanderstop, a cutesy indie game that might be of interest to tea lovers @Quagmire and @MC74 as the game revolves around making tea.

On 20 March is Assassin's Creed Shadows. With Ubisoft's balance sheet held up by hopes and dreams and needing this one to work they've made more significant changes, most notably introducing the concept of two radically different player characters - Naoe for stealth and Yasuke for a combat orientated approach. Other changes include major changes to stealth (including dynamic hiding in shadows and crawling), seasonal changes to the game world and more open-ended objectives. Be careful if you're interested as the game has leaked out.

On 27 March is Atomfall. A survival game set in the UK after a hypothetical worse-than-reality occurence of the Windscale nuclear incident, it is said to be inspired by Fallout: New Vegas which sounds pretty good to me.

FInally on 28 March is the PC early access release of inZOI. Perhaps the most interesting game this month, it's essentially Korea's answer to the Sims albeit with more direct control of the characters. Based on pre-release content both the building and life-simulation aspects look pretty impressive. It will launch on PS5 and Series at a later date.

Tales of the Shire was supposed to be out this month, but was pushed to 29 July. Other release date changes include:

Forza Horizon 5 on PS5 is out 29 April.
Dune Awakening on PC is out on May 20 with console to follow
TRON: Catalyst is out on June 17
Pokemon Legends: Z-A had its release window narrowed to Q4
Fable was delayed from 2025 to 2026

If Nintendo wants me to buy a Switch 2 early, I'll need them to get SNK to put City of the Wolves on it, as well as Metroid Prime 4... (though, I'll have to finish 2 and 3 first).

So am I!

Unfortunately, it just turns out that copy-pasting a table pushes all of the ticks to the left.
