The Nintendo Switch has the highlight game of the week with the colorful shooter Splatoon 2. The free-to-play online-battle-arena Gigantic releases in full on the Xbox One and the PC. The PS4 gets the action RPG Fallen Legion: Sins of an Empire, releasing this week in the US (Europe has to wait until next week), with its counterpart, Fallen Legion: Flames of Rebellion, hitting the Vita. Arriving on home video this week is Kong: Skull Island along with the animated Resident Evil: Vendetta. Hitting theaters this week is the Luc Besson sci-fi flick Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets along with Christopher Nolan’s war epic Dunkirk and the comedy Girls Trip.
