Spring is here. New releases are coming. Indie games such as Constance, MOTORSLICE, Mina the Hollower, and Outbound are looking to make a splash while Yoshi’s next adventure is set to launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 later in the month. Starbites looks to be a game for RPG fans to enjoy, Bugsy gets a new game, and Batman returns to his LEGO roots in LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight. In movies, sheep are detectives in The Sheep Detectives while Mortal Kombat II arrives to try and make a big splash in the box office. Spring anime continues from April 2026 while anime films like LABYRINTH and That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime‘s second film arrives on the big screen for a short timeframe.
