Set in the fictional Hope County, Montana, you’ll battle against a fanatical doomsday cult. With fully customizable characters, co-op play, and the return of fan-favorite activities like hunting and fishing, this is one of the most anticipated titles of the year.

Sea of Thieves (March 20)

Rare’s Sea of Thieves is shaping up to be one of the most unique multiplayer experiences of 2018. Play solo or join a crew as you sail the seas, hunt for treasure, and engage in ship-to-ship combat. The game is focused on player-driven adventures and emergent gameplay, meaning no two voyages will be the same.

Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom (March 23)

This visually stunning RPG is the follow-up to Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. Unlike its predecessor, Revenant Kingdom features a more action-oriented combat system and a kingdom-building mechanic where players help shape their own nation. It’s a must-play for JRPG fans.

Burnout Paradise Remastered (March 16)

If you miss arcade-style racing, Burnout Paradise Remastered is here to bring back the high-speed crashes, open-world exploration, and over-the-top stunts that made the original a fan favorite.

March 2018 is packed with a diverse lineup of games across all platforms. Whether you’re excited for the open-world chaos of Far Cry 5, the cooperative pirate fun of Sea of Thieves, or the nostalgic return of Burnout Paradise, there’s something for everyone this month.
