The year may be young, but we've already gotten a lot of big video game releases. We've gotten a new Pokemon spinoff, a new Horizon, Gran Turismo, Kirby, and a huge new From Software game. So it's understandable if April is a little slower. Below, you'll find a list of release dates for all the biggest games releasing this month and in the foreseeable future. We update it often, so come back anytime to see what's ahead. Whether you have a PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, or PC, you have a lot to look forward to.
