For me, May will simply be a time to keep playing what I'm playing, maybe get some 2016 stuff or earlier 2017 games I haven't gotten around to playing yet, try out Abzu on PS+, that sort of thing. It's one of the slower months this year for my taste.

Even then, I'm curious how Prey, Injustice 2 and Rime turn out. Doesn't seem like a bad month for me as much as a month that's less active than the previous four.

[nortonff]

Prey and Rime.
I'll wait for the reviews tho.

 

[freeofgreed]

Prey, Utawaremono, and FE for me. Thought I'm waiting for reviews for all 3. First somewhat slow month in a while.

 

[Timmeehh]

LocoRoco Remastered for me. I might pick up Rime too but that heavily depends on reviews.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Everspace and the Hotwheels expansion to FH3 that literally came out of nowhere.

 

[wild wild rice]

Blazing Star (Neo Geo) on Switch!

Other than that, Prey and Fire Emblem...though I have hesitations about both.

 

[Rocketz]

Forza DLC

 

[ArkkAngel007]

I'm interested in seeing how Prey, Rime, and Injustice 2 turn out. Minecraft on Switch is a certainty.

As a bonus, can't wait for the Destiny 2 reveal.

 

[ViolentP]

Nioh, son!

 

[ULTROS!]

Going to finish first
- Dragon Quest Heroes II
- The Silver Case
- Disney Afternoon Collection
- Deponia

And will snatch up Wonder Boy: Dragon's Trap

Is Constructor HD PS4 still coming out?

 

[redcrayon]

Fire Emblem Echoes.

Also Operation Babel on the Vita, quite enjoyed the last one.

I'm interested in The Caligula Effect but as it's digital only here I'll wait for a sale, it'll be a fraction of the price by the end of the year in the PSN sales and it's not like I'm short if 50 hour games to play.

 

[DriftingSpirit]

Fighting the backlog.

 

[iRAWRasaurus]

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 3rd (PC) And Fire emblem.

 

[The Hermit]

Ultra Street Fighter II.

Too bad it's almost in the end of the month

I think Garou, Mark of Wolves will launch on May 11th, but I not sure.

 

[StereoVsn]

Endless Space 2 on PC and Guilty Gear on PS4 for me. Technically I already have Endless Space 2 though.

 

[Rexatality]

Prey.

 

[electroaffe]

No highlights for me but I'm interested in

The Caligula Effect
NiOh DLC
The Surge
Rime
Farpoint
Star Trek

Trails in the Sky 3 could be my GotY but I'm still hoping for a Vita Port/Remake of the series.

 

[Maintenance]

Trails 3rd.

Fire Emblem.

 

[delSai]

Looking forward to Injustice 2 the most.

 

[DMONKUMA]

Prey maybe? I don't have Nioh anymore so nothing else interest me for this month.

 

[Guevara]

Cautiously optimistic about Prey.

 

[shwimpy]

Phew... a month of rest for the wallet.

 

[Z3M0G]

Had to look this up:

The Caligula Effect (PSVita)

How the fuck is this a "Story" trailer? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRBeStNHMxU

I hope this is a solid list of upcoming Vita titles: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3meHX__lgs

 

[Indelible]

Only Fire Emblem Echos, everything else can wait.

 

[FonkyByNature]

Prey (PS4)

Rime (Switch)
NBA Playgrounds (Switch)

 

[TheGreenArrow]

Friday the 13th all the wayyyyyy

I have both newest fire emblem games so I need to beat those before buying the new one. Looks great though.

 

[Elitist1945]

Prey and Farpoint.

 

[Strangelove77]

There's another Reservoir Dogs game coming out? Did they get Michael Madsen again?

 

[Lionel Richie]

Prey. Motherfucker looks cool as fuck.

 

[bede-x]

Mostly looking forward to LocoRoco Remastered. Should serve me nicely while I wait for the Bandicoot to return.

Will also pick up Lock's Quest and the Forza Horizon 3 expansion.

Fingers crossed Skylar & Plux turns out well, but it doesn't look that good from what I've seen.

 

[Aeana]

Easily Trails in the Sky the 3rd. It's my favorite game in the series, and I can't wait to play it again, and see how they translated everything.

 

[Off-Kilter]

Holy fuck LocoRoco is coming to PS4? I had no idea.

Also wow the Wii U is still getting games

 

[Pachimari]

I won't buy anything this month, but Friday the 13th, Battalion 1944 and Rime are games I'll pick up later or when on sale for sure.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

There's some really good stuff on the way, but I think Trails in the Sky: The 3rd is at the top of my list. Fire Emblem is second.

It's kind of absurd that we're still only in April, given the sheer number of cool games that have come out this year. We're just gonna be snowed under all year, and I love it.

 

[Forerunner]

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

 

[killatopak]

I don't think there's any game worth it to day one for me aside from Prey,tits and Utawarerumono.

Even then I don't think I'll buy them day one. May will probably be the month for me to catch up on my backlog.

 

[tariniel]

First month in 2017 that has nothing I'll immediately buy. I'm actually glad it's slowing down a bit.

Revelator almost counts but I'll be getting it on PC in June instead.

 

[Puruzi]

Fire Emblem

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Probably gonna nab Darksiders Warmastered Edition, but that's about it.

 

[John Rabbit]

Didn't realize Rime was next month.

Strafe and Rime then.

 

[Barry Burton]

Very excited for Prey. I think it's going to be great.

I'm also really curious to see how Rime turns out.

 

[Tonton]

Trails in the Sky the 3rd is all I need

... I actually really want Echoes but I don't have the money for it so that'll have to wait

 

[lord_of_flood]

Nioh DLC and Disgaea 5 Complete for me. Don't have the time for FE sadly.

 

[SephLuis]

Trails 3rd
Operation Babel
Guilty Gear Rev 2

Maybe Fire Emblem

Trails in the Sky 3 could be my GotY but I'm still hoping for a Vita Port/Remake of the series.

Already exists in Japan. Trails in the Sky Evolution series. However, those games cannot be localized due to a series of licensing issues.

 

[Okami Haundo]

It's Prey and that sweet looking Forza DLC for me! The opening hour of Prey is top-notch.

 

[Wozman23]

RiME and these two on May 2nd:

GNOG

TumbleSeed

 

[Danneee]

Thank god, there are absolutely no must buys for me in May.
I'll look forward to GAF impressions of Farpoint though!

 

[Chac]

How the fuck is this year still pumping out the hits?

This month:
Caligula
Dreamfall Chapters
Prey
Fire Emblem
Utawarerumono
Summon Night
Operation Babel
Disgaea
Guilty Gear

Pssh like I've got the time for all these. Oh well...

 

[smisk]

Can't believe Prey is out so soon! Really need to finish Dishonored 2. Also that Hot Wheels expansion looks amazing.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

TumbleSeed, Prey, and Ultra Street Fighter II.
