This month no top 5 but a top 3. Simply because January sucks for game releases, but we still managed to pick out 3 great games for you to play!
World to the West – January 18
World to the West will look familiar to some people because it is a standalone followup to the 2014 Teslagrad release. It takes place in the same universe and you can even play with Lumina the Teslamancer. Take control of her or 3 other characters with each having different skillsets and interweaving storylines as they seek to escape the dark shadow of an ancient prophecy. The game has already been released on Steam, but will now also be coming to Nintendo Switch.
