I ain’t fooling you when it comes to April, because we’ve got another banger of a month on the way! While the bigger releases that were seen in the first quarter of the year seems to have slowed down in April, that doesn’t mean that there isn’t some fun to be had. Days Gone and Mortal Kombat 11 may be the highest profile games for the month ahead, but on the indie and remaster side?
There’s a whole lot of joy to be found. The Nintendo Switch kicks off April with a remaster of Darksiders, an action game that is still a chunky piece of adventure that has graced just about every electronic device under the sun by now, while the likes of World War Z, Dangerous Driving and erm WeedCraft also sound fun.

They should announce HL3 for 2020 April 1st, people will think it is joke, but then, it is NOT.
Interwebnet will implode

We all actually do and then have in depth discussions and analysis on it on Discord.
We just tell you we don’t read it and to make you feel bad and worthless and then Geoff repays us with games discount vouchers.

We need an article that says Epic store exclusives are all coming to Steam next month. That should create quite the uproar. Or inversely say something really huge goes Epic exclusive. You want a riot? That’s how you get a riot.

Epic riot that won’t run out of steam, the origin will be quite lazzy

So many games uplay are going onto that storefront now…but I don’t really care. I stay Humble and stick to the games I’m Fanatical about.
