There’s a varied selection for gamers this week, headed up by the platformer Yooka-Laylee. Also hitting is the new MMO Skyforge, and the RPG/farming sim Stardew Valley gets a retail release for consoles with some extra bells and whistles. The arena brawler De-formers arrives from Ready at Dawn (The Order: 1886), and the 2D turn-based RPG Cosmic Star Heroine arrives on the Mac, PC, and PS4. A couple of Oscar nominees arrive on home video this week (Hidden Figures and Lion), along with the horror flick The Bye Bye Man and the family-friendly, sci-fi Monster Trucks. Vin Diesel and company roar into theaters with The Fate of the Furious, the eighth movie in the Fast and Furious franchise. Also hitting theaters this week is the animated film Spark and the true events inspired The Lost City of Z. Time for this week’s list and, as always, release dates are subject to change.
