Every Video Game Release Date for March 2021

March is generally not that big of a deal for the gaming industry. Sure, there are likely to be a couple of big releases. But it’s rarely a month that will see gamers struggling to decide what to buy.

That’s not exactly the case in 2021, though. Things are a bit different this year thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many titles that were due out during the last holiday season were pushed back. These delayed games are now starting to release, giving players a tougher time deciding where to spend their money. Add into that a flurry of announcements from Nintendo during its recent Nintendo Direct presentation and March is looking busy.

Fortunately, there’s plenty of great choices regardless of what genre you like. There are a few heavy hitters, some charming indie games, and everything else in between.

Here is every video game release for March 2021.

Harvest Moon: One World

Release Date: March 2

Platforms: Nintendo Switch

The farm simulator/RPG is returning. Although it might not be a series that many remember, it did inspire the likes of Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley. This latest installment has been developed solely by Natsume and takes place in locations around the world. Players are tasked with finding the missing Harvest Goddess with the help of three Harvest Wisps.

Maquette

Release Date: March 2

Platforms: PC, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5

Maquette is described by developer Graceful Decay as a first-person recursive puzzle game. The unique hook appears to be that every item and building in the game exists in multiple realms. That means that an object can be simultaneously small and giant at the same time. It also looks to involve physics to create some interesting puzzles.

Monster Jam Steel Titans 2

Release Date: March 2

Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox One

Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 is the sequel to the Monster Truck racing game created by Rainbow Studios. Featuring more vehicles than ever before along with fan-favorite tracks, it is a comprehensive experience. Players will also get to take part in brand new online multiplayer modes and an improved career campaign.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Release Date: March 2

Platforms: PlayStation 5

Yakuza: Like a Dragon originally released in Japan at the start of 2020. It came to the West at the end of the year for most platforms but is finally coming to PS5 in March. It is the latest entry in the long-running RPG franchise. This time around, protagonist Kazuma Kiryu has been replaced by Ichiban Kasuga as he attempts to become a hero.
