Keeping track of all the latest video games coming out is an increasingly complex task, what with multiple PC storefronts, Xbox One, PS4, Switch, mobile, and more to keep track of, but don’t worry, I’m here to help. Every month I'll be running down the games you need to be keeping an eye on, from the big triple-A headliners, to the intriguing indies you might overlook.

　　Following on the heels an unusually packed February, March isn’t quite as busy, but there are still some big games to look forward to, including the much-anticipated Resident Evil 4 remake, and Team Ninja’s latest Soulslike, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. On the indie front, players can look forward to the visually-impressive open-world Soulslike Bleak Faith: Forsaken, charming narrative puzzler Storyteller, and more.

　　Note: While I may have played demos or got early access to some of the games recommended in this article, in most cases I’m simply choosing games that look promising, and can’t vouch for the end product. Do wait for reviews before buying!

　　That said, here are the games you should be looking out for in March…

The Headliners

　　Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 & PS5, March 3)

　　Were you a fan of Team Ninja’s Nioh games? Looking for more punishment? Well, it doesn’t seem like a new Nioh is coming any time soon, but Team Ninja’s Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is the next best thing. Another hardcore Soulslike packed with packed demonic enemies, Wo Long relocates the action from Japan to feudal China and introduces some new elements, like character creation and a greater focus on environmental traversal. This one doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel, but I’m sure there are plenty of Nioh fans that will be perfectly alright with that. Here's everything you need to know about the game. You can pre-order Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty here.

　　Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon (Switch, March 17)

　　PlatinumGames always zigs when you expect them to zag. Following on the heels of the excellent Bayonetta 3, the new isometric action-adventure Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon weaves a downright wholesome storybook tale while focusing more on unique mechanics, exploration, and puzzle solving than the franchise’s usual high-intensity action. I’m not exactly sure what audience Bayonetta Origins is being made for, but I’ve had the opportunity to tackle the game’s early hours, and it shows promise. You can pre-order Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon here.

　　WWE 2K23 (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 & PS5, March 17)

　　Time to get your jorts out of the closet, because WWE 2K23 is almost here, and this time it’s all about the Hustle, Loyalty, and Respect. Yes, John Cena is the cover star, and WWE 2K23’s new showcase turns the tables as you’ll be tasked with defeating Super Cena in a variety of his most memorable matches. Other new features, like the WarGames match and a women’s career mode have also been added. I had an opportunity to go hands-on with an early version of WWE 2K23 and came away optimistic about its refined action and new features. You can pre-order WWE 2K23 here.

　　Resident Evil 4 (PC, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 & PS5, March 24)

　　Since Capcom embarked on their latest slate REmakes, a new version of Resident Evil 4 has been the dream of many fans, and now it’s almost here. Capcom is remaining surprisingly true to the original, bringing back the spin-kicks and action-movie tone, some of the goofier characters, and even less popular sections like the Island. That said, they are modernizing things as well – in addition to an obvious huge graphical update, you can expect a more character-driven story, levels designs that offer more player freedom, and a new parry system that replace dated quick-time events. Here’s everything you need to know about the remake. You can pre-order Resident Evil 4 here.

　　MLB The Show 23 (Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 & Switch, March 28)

　　Major League Baseball Opening Day is just a bit over a month away, so, of course, that means MLB The Show 23 is also on the way to help kick things off. Expect the usual solid hardball experience, with some further tweaks to gameplay, a new Storylines mode, and more. You can pre-order MLB The Show 23 here.

Promising Indies

　　King of the Castle (PC, March 2)

　　King of the Castle is a new social party game, where royal politics are the only thing that are “sus.” One player takes on the role of the King of the land, while up to 24 others will play as members of your court via their PC, phone, or other devices. Basically, this looks like a simplified version of Crusader Kings, except with AI replaced by real people who are even more eager to stab you in the back. Here’s the Steam page for King of the Castle.

　　Figment 2: Creed Valley (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 & Switch, March 9)

　　What if the Psychonauts games were isometric action-adventures instead of platformers? That’s basically the premise for the Figment series, which task players with puzzling and fighting their way through colorful worlds set inside the human mind with a particular focus on music. Figment 2: Creed Valley looks to deliver more mind-bending fun, with new features like co-op, musical boss fights, and more. Here’s the Steam page for Figment 2: Creed Valley.

　　Bleak Faith: Forsaken (PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 & Switch, March 10)

　　There are certainly no shortage of indie Soulslikes out there, but Bleak Faith: Forsaken looks more promising than most. Featuring impressive visuals, an in-depth class and perk system, and a full-on open-world to explore, Bleak Faith may be something to keep you busy while you wait for that Elden Ring expansion. Here’s the Steam page for Bleak Faith: Forsaken.

　　Storyteller (PC & Switch, March 23)

　　Storyteller is a unique (and adorable) narrative-driven puzzle game. Players are tasked with assembling specific stories using simple object and character icons, which will react in different ways depending on how you place them. The stories you’ll be recreating are classics of literature and myth, from Dracula, to Oedipus, to Romeo & Juliet, and you’re free to have some fun and rewrite the tales as you see fit. Here’s the Steam page for Storyteller.

　　Terra Nil (PC, March 28)

　　City builders are a dime-a-dozen, but Terra Nil takes the tools of Sim City and its imitators and does something very different with them. Rather than paving over nature, your goal is to take a desolate piece of land and bring it back to life by purifying the soil and creating the right conditions for plains, wetlands, beaches, rainforests, fields of wildflowers, and more. Build and feel good about it too. Here’s the Steam page for Terra Nil.
