October 2022, or rather, its second half is jam-packed with new game launches, giving ample time for new first-person shooter Overwatch 2 to maintain its relevance. If online multiplayer isn't your forte, this month boasts several hotly-anticipated AAA entries, including Gotham Knights, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 remake. The latter recently underwent an open beta testing period, providing fruitful results on the cross-play front. After an almost year-long wait, PlayStation is finally bringing Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection to PC, letting a new generation of players experience Nathan Drake and Chloe Frazer's adventures in the wild.
Nintendo continues to dominate on the handheld front, as the Umbra Witch Bayonetta returns for a threequel. Despite adding a new set of special spells, the game retains its fast-paced hack-and-slash methodology, allowing for hybrid experimentation on the field. Then there's Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope — a returning collaboration between Nintendo and Ubisoft — where iconic characters from the franchise embark on an interstellar journey to save the Spark companions.
And if that frantic playstyle tires you out, go for a “relaxing” trip to the plague-ridden streets of France, as you guide siblings Hugo and Amicia onto a breathtaking island, in the upcoming Plague Tale sequel. Then there's Bloody Ties, the much-awaited story DLC for the zombie-parkour game Dying Light 2, where Aiden enters into a bloodsport tournament, only to realise there's much at stake.
