New Retail Releases: Devil May Cry 5, Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn, Left Alive, More
After veering away from the franchise’s established continuity in DMC: Devil May Cry, Capcom has promised fans they’ll get reacquainted with “The Devil You Know” in Devil May Cry 5, which will be available this week for the PS4 and Xbox One (and as a digital download for the PC). Dante and Nero will both return for the “most insane” and “technically advanced” entry in the series, and they’ll be joined by a “weapons artist” named Nico.
If you’d prefer not to spend your days battling demons, Nintendo will launch a family-friendly alternative, Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn, for the 3DS. Originally released for the Wii, this expanded re-release includes new new Ravel Abilities that mimic the pink puffball’s famous copy power and a harder Devilish Mode (wait a minute…). It’s also the last Nintendo-published 3DS game on the 2019 calendar, so we might be looking at the end of an era here.
Also set to launch this week is Left Alive, a new “survival-action shooter” from Square Enix that’ set in the Front Mission universe. The futuristic game will be available for the PS4 and as a digital download for the PC.
Finally this week, gamers will be able to scoop up MLB Advanced Media’s RBI Baseball 19 (PS4 and Xbox One), White Paper Games’s The Occupation (PS4 and Xbox One), and Bigben’s My Little Riding Champion (Switch) from their local retail establishment. And Switch owners looking to purchase a copy of The Lego Movie 2 will finally get their chance.

It’s another big week for new entries in some of your favorite franchises in today’s New Retail Releases report.
Koei Tecmo is back with the sixth entry in their other fighting franchise (no, not that one, the other other one), Dead or Alive 6. Set to launch this week for the PS4 and Xbox One (and available as a download-only title for the PC), Dead or Alive 6 will include an upgraded visual presentation and a new combo-based fighting system.
Ubisoft will hit the gas this week on the next entry in their wild “motorcycle platforming” series, as they’re all set to bring Trials Rising: Gold Edition to the PS4, Switch, and Xbox One. Trials Rising will add character customization to the franchise, as well a two-player Tandem Bike Mode. The Gold Edition will also come packed with an Expansion Pass that’ll allow free access to future downloadable content.
Players who want to put it all together this week can look towards TT Games’s The Lego Movie 2. Based on the new film starring Chris Pratt and Elizabeth Banks, The Lego Movie 2 will be available on store shelves for the PS4 and Xbox One (a PC download will also be available).
Finally this week, Codemasters will get down in the muck with Dirt Rally 2.0 (PS4 and Xbox One) and Square Enix will re-release Nier: Automata in a special “Game of The Yorha Edition” package.
You can find more new retail releases from this week after the break. (more…)
