Once upon a time, May was one of the best months of the year to release AAA games. However, the short list of new PS5 and PS4 games due to be released during the week beginning May 6, 2024, is filled with indie games. The obvious highlight is the only non-indie game on the list, PAC-MAN Mega Tunnel Battle: Chomp Champs, which has escaped the clutches of Google Stadia to live another day.
