With some big games coming out later this month, we've put together a list of five of our favourites that we can't wait to get our hands on. Let us know which you'll be playing in the comments section, and which we've missed out that you can't wait to play!
Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush
Released: May 8 (Europe), out now in North America
Platform: Wii U
Played exclusively on the Wii U's GamePad using the stylus, paths are drawn on-screen to guide a rolling Kirby through levels of fun, excitement and intrigue.

Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
Released: May 5 digitally, May 15 retail
Platforms: Xbox One, PS4, PC
The Nazis are on the brink of winning the Second World War in this prequel to last year's Wolfenstein: The New Order, and so series regular BJ Blazkowicz takes it upon himself to stop them in a two-part mission.
In the first part of his quest, Blazkowicz tries to infiltrate Castle Wolfenstein and steal co-ordinates that can lead him to General Deathshead's compound. Part two pits him against a Wulfburg Nazi archaeologist, and when you're done with all that drama, there's a Nazi Zombies mode to get to grips with.
