E3 – Project Beast announced as Bloodborne

E3 – Project Beast announced as Bloodborne

, , , , , , , , 0

During the pre E3 conference, gamers saw the much rumoured and speculated Project Beast announced as Bloodborne. Developed by From Software, the Japanese team behind the Souls games, Bloodborne is a new RPG that looks like it will follow in the morbidly dark and terrifying style of the Souls games and Bloodborne will be a PlayStation 4 exclusive and will launch in 2015. Here’s the first world premiere trailer of first footage from Bloodborne; Bloodborne challenges players to face their fears, and it’s already looking pretty awesome. The trailer weighs in at a fairly generous 3 minutes and contains some noteworthy action – most excitingly the changing weapon that, who we assume to be, the lead character is killing enemies with. It initially seems to be embedded in an enemy in the form of a saw, before changing into a giant sword and then later in the trailer possibly a gun. One weapon serving multiple functions could add some really interesting gameplay to Bloodborne – a boss battle vulnerable to different

At the Microsoft and XBox pre-E3 announcement there were, as expected, new Call of Duty Advanced Warfare details shared. Microsoft kicked off their show, and all of todays’ pre-E3 conferences, in style with some in game footage from a level of the Advanced Warfare campaign called “Induction”. The footage follows a unit of US Marines being dropped behind enemy lines in Seoul, South Korea and you can watch and re-watch the footage to your hearts content here; As has been the case for a long time, all DLC expansion packs for Call of Duty Advanced Warfare will be timed exclusives to the XBox platform, before release on PlayStation platforms and PC. The footage clocks in at a healthy 9 minutes and shows a far-from-perfect landing before some intense shootouts. Everything’s looking beautiful and crisp for the latest entry into the Call of Duty franchise, including a rather handy radar/scan that can highlight enemies even if they are behind cover. The Advanced Warfare level itself looks vibrant, alive and dynamic and features

E3 – Rainbow Six Siege Announced

E3 – Rainbow Six Siege Announced

After more than 6 years on hiatus and following numerous reports that the game has been rebuilt from the ground up, at the Ubisoft pre E3 conference today gamers saw squad based first person shooter Rainbow Six Siege announced. It was the spectacular ending to Ubisoft’s show, which has probably had the strongest lineup with only Sony’s conference left. Ubisoft also showed live multiplayer gameplay from Rainbow Six Siege and it looked like an absolute blast! The world premiere gameplay of Rainbow Six Siege had plenty to offer, and no doubt there are tonnes of little hints and things to note when re-watching. The multiplayer mission tasked the Rainbow Six squad with entering a building to extract a hostage. One of the key elements that will please fans of the older Rainbow Six games is the ability to scope out the location pre-mission, shown using a remote drone in the video, and then choose an approach plan before proceeding. In the demo, team members discussed entering the house from the basement

E3 – Battlefield Hardline Beta Open Now

E3 – Battlefield Hardline Beta Open Now

During their pre-E3 news conference, EA Games gave gamers new information regarding the previously announced Battlefield Hardline. The biggest news of all is that the Battlefield Hardline Beta is open now on PC & PS4 and it’s first come, first served – if you have any interest in trying the new game out then hop onto the Sony store ASAP – they do seem to be having some technical difficulties, probably due to the huge demand but patience may well pay off! EA also showed a new online mode for Battlefield Hardline – described Criminals vs Cops; one team is trying to heist and escape with the loot from a bank, while the other team play as cops trying to prevent them from doing exactly that. It looked like the usual frantic Battlefield action, very similar to capture the flag where one team mate is carrying the “loot” and everyone is trying to protect him. EA and VG247 have also followed up post-show by providing 3 new videos about Battlefield

Microsoft kicked E3 off in a huge way with updates not only to their pre-announced games but gamers also saw the “world premiere” that saw Rise of the Tomb Raider announced. The trailer shown during the Microsoft pre-E3 conference can be seen below and shows a young Lara Croft with a psychiatrist discussing how Lara needs to “get out more” in between snapshots of Lara defying gravity with huge leaps and being chased by animals. There was no date or specific information about Rise of the Tomb Raider – it’s fairly safe to assume that the game will release cross-platform and probably isn’t an Xbox One exclusive. There was also no release date, window or year given for the game. It looks a lot like Rise of the Tomb Raider could be set after the events of the last Tomb Raider reboot though, based on the little information offered. For now, enjoy this announcement trailer for Rise of the Tomb Raider and we’ll be back with more as it happens.

The Evil Within Rebirths The World of Survival Horror If you’ve been keeping up with the gaming scene, you might be aware of the new survival horror video game from Tango Gameworks and Bethesda Softworks. The new title is the new brainchild of game director Shinji Mikami, creator of the Resident Evil series. The latter series is experiencing a bit of a decline at the moment and has seen better days. However, it appears that Mikami has given the world of survival horror another shot in the arm with the upcoming dark, macabre title The Evil Within. For fans like me, who loved the aesthetic of Resident Evil 4 and the way that game both reinvigorated and redefined the genre, The Evil Within could be right up your alley. Here’s what we know so far. In previous previews and the first look gameplay video released at last year’s E3, the game’s protagonist, Sebastian Castellanos, is a detective. Sebastian and his colleagues are called to a crime scene at a mental

Geoff Keighley has revealed via Twitter that EA will be showing off at least six brand new games to the world. The press conference will be streamed live across Twitch, Spike TV and on the official EA website on June 9, allowing those not attending to get a glimpse of the publisher’s upcoming titles. One of those titles is apparently an unannounced “major new game” built using Frostbite 3. That is the same engine used to power Battlefield 4. Although EA did not reveal much detail about the games it plans to show off at E3, it did say that one of them would be Star Wars: Battlefront. It’s also likely we will get to see Dragon Age: Inquisition, the new Mirror’s Edge and possibly Mass Effect 4. Star Wars: Battlefront was first revealed last year and is one of several Star Wars games under development by EA subsidiaries. It is under development by DICE, the team behind the Battlefield series, using the same engine the team have used in
