Similar to last week, there were some stragglers that released after the typical weekly release time that we’ve all become accustomed to. The only difference was that last week’s normal release post on Wednesday night was relatively light, with a pretty hefty number of late arrivals in our second release post on Friday. This week, the normal release post was chock full of stuff, and this second one is really just a handful of stragglers. However, these stragglers are pretty noteworthy and are totally worth highlighting, so if you still have some energy left after all the new games that have already hit check out this list below and strap in because the next week or so will probably be just as insane as the holidays approach.

Edit: Metro 2033: Wars has exited soft-launch and been added to the list below!

Metro 2033: Wars

iTunes Description

It’s the year 2033 and the entirety of the world has been reduced to nuclear rubble. Humanity is nearing extinction and radiation is making even the most basic surface dwelling, uninhabitable. New life forms have arisen that are far better adapted to this new dark, damp and alien-like world. Bands of survivors live on without ever knowing the warmth of sunlight, and whether or not they are the last ones left on Earth. The Moscow Metro is the reluctant home for this new humanity and one you protect at all costs.

Metro Stations have become city-states run by new and emerging Factions, uniting its members around ideas, religions, water, or simply the need to survive. Your daily existence centers around gathering resources necessary for survival, repelling attacks of mutants, exploring and conquering new metro stations and developing armed mercenary units when the need arises. To survive, you’ll have to build necessary facilities at Stations, establish diplomatic relations with your neighbors and uphold the economy of your little underground state.
