For Honor has announced their latest faction (Chinese) and new game mode, Breach (which is siege gameplay). For Honor is one of those games which launched, fell flat with poor support but has seen a large turn around as they improved the dedicated servers, netcode, design and is riding a wave of huge comeback.

Jurassic World Evolution has been rushed out and released June 12th yet has had mix reviews so far being plagued with bugs and short sighted development. Probably released early in time for the cinema release. JWE looks like Zoo Tycoon mixed with Dinosaurs.

Sony then hit us with The Last of Us Part II which seems to purely be playing Ellie and if you liked The Last of Us, this does look good. Check out some gameplay here.
