Death and Dictators – games you can play this week

As E3 draws near, game developers and studios grow quiet as they prepare for gaming’s biggest spectacle.

Fortunately, there are two stellar titles being released this week which should keep you busy until the annual exposition arrives.

Wolfenstein: The New Order

Wolfenstein: The New Order marches into stores on 20 May 2014, and will be available for PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.

The game sees you fighting the evil might of the Nazi empire, which was not defeated in World War 2 and now fly their Swastikas around the globe. Take control of William “B.J” Blazkowicz as you shoot history right in the face, and restore the balance of power. If you have not pre-ordered you copy, take a look at out price roundup to find the best deal.

Tropico 5

The retail copies of Tropico 5 for PC will only be available in SA at the beginning of June, but for Steam users the game goes on sale on 23 May 2014. The Xbox 360 and PS4 version are due out in the coming months.

The game is once again being developed by Haemimont Studios, and players can expect more dictator-esque city-building management action with the addition of four player co-op and competitive multiplayer.
