New PS4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC Games To Play This Week

Like every week, if you own a PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or a PC, there’s new games for you to play. However, this may be the slowest and lightest week of 2019 so far in terms of new releases, especially if you don’t own a Nintendo Switch. That said, while this week only features one notable release, there are some promising looking indie games also dropping that may be worth a peek.

Anyway, here are the notable new releases for this week that may be worth your time. Of course, it’s important to note that early access games are never included. Further, this is not an exhaustive list. Even in a slow week, there’s dozens and dozens of games releasing, especially on PC. This is simply a list — organized by release date — of the more notable new releases.
