May release highlights
The list of games above is just a few of the releases coming in May. For example, this month I plan to give a chance to Cubic Odyssey, which is like a "Minecraft in space." I will also take a look at the voxel MMO BitCraft Online - early access will start in May. What do other of the editorial team plan to play next?
Capcom Fighting Collection 2
The next installment of the Capcom Fighting Collection 2 is another opportunity to get familiar with games that have conquered arcade halls. I've heard of some of them before, but a few titles, such as Plasma Sword, are completely unknown to me. I do like fighting games, though, and Capcom Fighting Collection 2 is the perfect excuse to get to know the history of a genre that is currently in pretty good shape. I especially can't wait for the battles in Capcom vs. SNK Pro and Capcom vs. SNK 2, because the new Fatal Fury just launched. This will provide an opportunity to play a few matches with familiar characters against Capcom icons.

MH-60 Jayhawk for MSFS
May is packed with great titles, and I'm adding to the hot releases with the MH-60 Jayhawk aircraft DLC for Microsoft Flight Simulator. A new helicopter for this simulator may not seem like anything special, but in this case, it is not only the iconic Black Hawk in its naval version, which has not been featured in simulators so far, but the developers will also provide a comprehensive editor with a random mission generator. They will enable the implementation of scenarios such as searching for castaways at sea by the United States Coast Guard, extinguishing fires, or tracking and attacking submarines (in the version for the Navy). 3rd party developers and s have already proven several times that they are capable of creating a better career mode than Asobo in MSFS 2024, and this mode looks particularly atmospheric and good!

May is full of games, and I still have some backlog from April! However, if for some reason you haven't found something for yourself here, take a look at our calendar. It includes all the important May releases, so you should probably find something interesting there.
