Arkan Studios Redfall Already late to 2022, it faced a difficult task when Microsoft gave it a May 2 launch date to satisfy Xbox Game Pass fans wondering when they’d get some beating on day one. Nintendo picked up on May 12th The Legend of ZeldaKingdom Tears All the way back in September, and Xbox took its chances again in January when it picked the ten days in May before Totk dominates the gaming conversation.

But this is not the case Redfall It is the only other game that will be released in May. He’s just, relatively speaking, the only one remotely facing Zelda-sized expectations for his platform. There are plenty of other interesting releases, early hits, or previous generation platform launches. But it seems everyone is getting away with Nintendo this month. Well, everyone except Redfall.

Here’s what’s coming, among the major video game launches, in May 2023.

Redfall

(Windows PC, Xbox Series X)

snark aside, Redfall It seems like one of those Arkane concepts that plays a bestseller and turns pages, and takes all of your time to finally finish it off. This co-op open-world shooter takes players to a dark New England seaside town – literally, the sun is in perpetual eclipse – to rid it of the vampire horde that has taken over.

The Legend of Zelda: Kingdom’s Tears

We’re not sure how much more can be said in anticipation of this sequel to 2017’s sequel The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. It’s a Zelda game, it looks beautiful, its world is massive, and it has a fanbase that goes back over 35 years. The only reason this game isn’t the first on this list is because we do it chronologically.
