Valkyria Chronicles Remastered
Sega's critically acclaimed 2008 tactical role-playing game - Valkyria Chronicles - is set to get a remastered version next month. It's been available to Japanese gamers since February. The developer-and-publisher said at the announcement that it will run at 1080p 60fps, and will come with all of the original able content alongside Japanese and English audio. The game first released on PlayStation 3 in April 2008, before getting a Windows release in November 2014. Valkyria Chronicles Remastered will release on May 17 for the PlayStation 4.

Homefront: The Revolution
Releasing on May 20 in Europe and India, open-world first-person shooter Homefront: The Revolution serves as a sequel to 2011's Homefront. The game takes place in 2029 in an alternate timeline, with Ethan Brady planning a resistance against the North Korean army after Philadelphia's invasion. Development on the game was far from smooth, starting with the closure of original maker Kaos Studios in 2011 itself and publisher THQ declaring bankruptcy a year later. It then ended up in the hands of Deep Silver - maker of Saints Row - who worked under two different publishers before things settled down. You can get it on PS4, Xbox One, Windows, OS X, and Linux PCs.

Known for real-time strategy and role-playing games, Blizzard started to branch out recently with the release of collectible card game Hearthstone in 2014 followed by MOBA game Heroes of the Storm in 2015. This year it ventures into another genre, with the release of first-person shooter Overwatch, which is out on May 24 for PS4, Xbox One and Windows PCs. The game is based around squad-based combat - meaning it's entirely multiplayer - and characters are of four types: offence, defence, tanks, and . Unfortunately, you won't be able to snap up a physical copy and will have to rely on Blizzard's online service, Battle.net.
