So, no Retrospectives this month - - though we certainly provided plenty of them for you over the last several months. We do, however, have some Notable New Gaming Releases for you! Just in time to wrap up 2025, too.
This week saw the release of two titles that were surely on a number of gamers radars (they were certainly on ours) - - (Marvel) Cosmic Invasion and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. As you may know, Cosmic Invasion is a Marvel-themed beat 'em up from the incredibly talented crew over at Tribute (Games), the same studio that gave us the 2022 Game of the Year, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. We don't know about you but Marvel x Tribute sounds like one heck of a combination! As for Metroid Prime 4, the game's been in development so long now that it would be pretty insane if it wasn't good - - but we're definitely looking forward to finding out, either way.
Also out in the last two months - - the equally highly-anticipated follow-up to Obsidian's fantastic 2019 hit, The Outer Worlds; and the first Pokemon title to appear on the Switch 2. A cosmic battle awaits! Jump past the break to see more new releases from the last 63 days.
