There are only a few episodes of New Releases left in 2018, but there are still plenty of games to talk about. This week is home to the big, explosive Battlefield V and the calm, quiet Farming Simulator 19. Meanwhile, both Wreckfest and Bendy and the Ink Machine are getting console ports, while Warframe arrives on Nintendo Switch.
Battlefield V -- November 20

Battlefield V is firmly planted in World War II, with a focus on realism. This time around, you can create a whole squad of custom soldiers with the new Company feature, then take them into progressive multiplayer modes like Operations. Developer DICE has lots of free post-launch content planned too, including its take on the massively popular battle royale mode, dubbed Firestorm.
