And with that, we’re in a new month and headed into the holiday season.

I started on Black Friday, as nature intended.

While there aren’t a *ton* of major releases to expect by the end of the year, there are a few notable ones dropping this week, so prepare yourselves.

No, seriously. I’ll wait.

First up is Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, which makes the franchise available for the teeming hordes that wanted it from the very beginning of the Switch. Your prayers to the Nintendo gods have been answered, so enjoy smashing each other in a way that’s family friendly and appropriate:

Is anyone else tickled that the nicest, most wholesome character in the history of the universe, Isabelle from Animal Crossing, is essentially the Nintendo equivalent of a violent sociopath? Just me? Let’s move on.

Just Cause 4 drops this week as well, continuing the ever exciting life of Rico Rodriguez as he battles the bad guys and Mother Nature herself. Seriously, you’re fighting in a LITERAL F**CKING HURRICANE.

Whether or not this is intended as commentary on the current handling of climate conditions globally is yet to be seen, but it’s pretty convenient timing if it is.

Finally, fans of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will receive Story Arc 1 – Legacy of the First Blade to enrich their experience, and Hello Neighbor releases the Hide & Seek expansion.

Well, so much for it being a boring release week. Check out the other new releases below and let us know what you think.
