Releasing This Week: Nov 12-18

November has had a somewhat slow start in terms of video game releases, but this week sees that change with the likes of Fallout, Hitman, Spyro, and Pokémon.

November 13 - IO Interactive's Hitman 2 arrives on PC, PS4, and Xbox One and unlike the previous entry, you're getting all locations and chapters from the start. The long-awaited remake of the first three Spyro titles - Spyro Reignited Trilogy comes to PS4 and Xbox One. Switch missed out on that one (hopefully it will arrive next year on Nintendo's platform), but instead it's getting SNK 40th Anniversary Collection.

November 14 - Bethesda will deliver their online survival take on Fallout, Fallout 76, across PC (Bethesda.net only), PS4, and Xbox One.

November 15 - After allowing EA and Origin Access players onto servers last week, this week it is the turn of those getting the Deluxe Edition to jump into Battlefield V on PC, PS4, Xbox One, the full release is on November 20. In a somewhat surprising move, Hellgate: London is getting a release on Steam more than a decade after its original launch. We've been made to wait even longer for the third game in the Ultima Underworld series, but PC players are finally getting Underworld Ascendant from OtherSide on this day. Turn-based strategy game Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus hits PC and the Switch version of team-based racer Trailblazers gets released. For fans of The Settlers, there's something called The Settlers History Collection which bundles the Gold editions of the first seven game in the series with all DLC into one compilation of the history books, presumably.

November 16 - Nintendo unleashes Pokémon: Let's Go Pikachu and Pokémon: Let's Go Eevee on Nintendo Switch marrying the traditional concept of Pokémon games with the more casual approach of Pokémon Go. Another big game arrives on Nintendo Switch in the shape of Civilization VI.
