This week we head to the trenches as Battlefield 1 hits store shelves on Friday (for those paying the extra 20 bucks, the Early Enlister Edition hits Wednesday). Skylanders launches its latest toys to life game with Imaginators on a rare Sunday release date. The Batman: Arkham games get brought to current gen in a two game package, and LEGO brings out its Harry Potter games in a collection for the PS4. Home video has some big summer movies coming to the small screen this week with the releasing of Independence Day: Resurgence and Alice Through the Looking Glass on DVD and Blu-ray. On the big screen, Tom Cruise takes on more bad guys in the action sequel Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, we get a horror movie (naturally) in Ouija: Origin of Evil, and Tyler Perry resurrects his Madea character for the Halloween spoof Tyler Perry’s Boo! A Madea Halloween. Now on to this week’s list and remember, as always, release dates are subject to change.
