Okay, so here we go. Brace yourself, I guess.

Hey, you! Yeah, you. Ready for another jam-packed week on Xbox? Honestly, why am I even asking? Of course, you are. Who doesn’t want an excuse to dive headfirst into a bunch of new games and forget life exists for a bit? Anyway—or maybe not anyway—let’s wander through this hodgepodge of upcoming releases.
### Age of Empires II: DE – The Three Kingdoms (May 6)
Picture this, you’re plopped down in ancient China. No, seriously, I’m talking epic historical stuff—and a bit of the legend (because why not?). Got three campaigns: Shu, Wei, Wu. They’re like old buddies, each with their unique schtick. Plus, you get to meet the Jurchens and Khitans. Say what you want, but new civilizations are always a party.
### King Arthur: Legion IX (May 6)
If you thought King Arthur was just some dude with a sword, think again. Enter a world where myths get a gritty makeover. New or veteran, doesn’t matter—this turn-based RPG is ready to mess with your routine. Also, Avalon. Need I say more?
### Metal Eden (May 6)
Ah, the old suicide mission. Nothing like the word “suicide” to spice up your gaming adventure. Blast your way through Moebius, now more of a metal death trap than a hopeful city. Spoilers: The mystery will either boggle your mind or just boggle your controls. Hard to tell sometimes.
### Bartender Hustle (May 7)
Thought shaking drinks was just about lime and ice cubes? Nope! Or maybe yes? You mix magic with a splash of personality. Climb that social ladder, one cocktail at a time. Your charm better be as smooth as your shaken-not-stirred martini.
### Submarine Survivor (May 7)
Dive deep, my friend. Real deep. Like, Neptune-we’re-coming-for-you deep. Fight sea creatures and, for some reason, find crystals. Submarines aren’t just tin cans under water anymore. This is an oceanic roguelite battle to conquer or to scream about. Depends on your day.
### Empyreal (May 8)
Space. The infinite frontier, yadda yadda. But wait—there’s a planet with a gigantic Monolith! Super sci-fi vibes. Exciting, right? Well, until you face their ancient robot-looking dudes who eye you like you just stole their lunch.
### Penguin Flight: Beyond the Clouds (May 8)
Because a penguin yearning to fly was just too adorable to pass up. Jump, dash, maybe even face-plant a few times. This isn’t just a game, it’s a side-scroller exercise in defying gravity.
### Revenge of the Savage Planet (May 8)
Corporate greed has never sounded so good. You’re stranded, equipment’s meh, and all you want is payback. It’s a tale as old as time. Explore that planet like it’s your backyard—with aliens. Or whatever.
### Spirit of the North 2 (May 8)
Hey! Did anyone order a lonely fox on a world-saving mission? Of course, we needed a wise Raven too, because why not? Free the Guardians and prove that sometimes, you just need animal wisdom (and a bit of courage because shaman battles can get weird).
### The Abandoned Planet (May 8)
Wanna solve mysteries while feeling nostalgic? Totally inspired by those good ol’ 90s adventure games. You crashed—like, quite literally—and now it’s all about piecing things together. Remember Myst? Yeah, like that, minus the headache. Or maybe not.
### Truck Simulator Cargo Driver 2025 – USA (May 8)
Nothing says relaxation like long stretches of road, cargo galore, and possibly country tunes blaring. Or metal. Your call. Become the king of the road without leaving your couch.
### AMAZE! (May 9)
You like puzzles? Or maybe just balls of paint? Then paint your way through this maze. Sounds simple till it’s not. Strategic painting, who knew?
### Eyes: The Horror Game (May 9)
Haunted hospitals, possessed schools, creepy homesteads—what’s not to love? Honestly, it’s survival horror with those creepy runes. Try not to scream. Or, you know, scream. It’s cool.

And that’s a wrap! Go on, game on until your eyes beg for mercy or until an alien/inexplicable penguin adventure calls you back to… reality? 뭐든 뭐라 불릴 수 있죠, 그리고 난 이 텍스트로 이만.
