Despite originally be revealed as a game only for Xbox, during the Microsoft Press Conference at E3, it was revealed that Platinum’s new game Scalebound would be part of the Play Anywhere initiative. Meaning it’ll be for both PC and Xbox One, and capable of playing on the go from both systems. The game will apparently feature the “biggest ever boss fight”, a true feat considering Platinum Games ability to make enormous boss fights. Unfortunately, despite the reveal of the dual platforming, the release date is still unclear. While it was supposed to be in 2016, now, it has an unspecified 2017 release date.

E3 2016: Content Barriers Being Removed From ESO

E3 2016: Content Barriers Being Removed From ESO

, , 0

During its press conference at E3, the team at Zenimax revealed that they are going to make it easier for players in The Elder Scrolls online to access all areas of the game in one go. Regardless of level or certain requirements. They title this removal of content barriers, “One Tauriel”. More details were given on the official Elders Scrolls Online site: With One Tamriel, we are opening up the entire playable world to everyone, no matter their level. This is a pretty big deal. One Tamriel makes the game much more grouping and social-friendly, as the player base will no longer be divided into thirds and also won’t be divided by player level. The reasons we are doing this are simple: we want to make it easier for ESO players to group together, and to promote the sense of freedom to explore that Elder Scrolls games are known for. In other words, we’re bringing the same auto-leveling system (called “battle leveling”) that has been so successful in our DLCs to the

I took the time out of my schedule to play some Hyper Light Drifter, in between packing my boxes to send off to storage. I’d been hearing about it from some of my friends on Steam, so I picked it up to see what all the hubhub is about. This game by indie shop Heart Machine, has you taking on the cloak of an unnamed drifter collecting forgotten knowledge, technologies, and broken histories. The game presents its narrative through its own visuals, as well as slide-show dialogue. There is absolutely no written dialogue, and it doesn’t need any to get its point across.

Xenoblade Chronicles X Review

Xenoblade Chronicles X Review

, , 0

Full disclosure. I didn’t get Xenoblade Chronicles X until Christmas last year. I wasn’t sure about the game, despite hearing numerous intriguing things about it, and me being a solid RPG gamer. However, after hearing some reviews, I decided to get it via a gift, and I did. I haven’t regretted it since. It’s almost impossible to quantify how good this game is. From nearly the first moments, in which we have a beautiful cinematic lay out the situation of the title, from the first missions, to the world and beyond, Xenoblade Chronicles is that good. Though I won’t go into spoilers, it is important to outline the basics of the story. You are an unnamed protagonist, who is a survivor of a “lifeboat” ship called the White Whale, which left Earth in order to survive its assured destruction by two alien races. After drifting in space for two years, you’re attacked, and crash land on the planet Mira, a place vastly different from Earth. As a survivor, you’re shown

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Coming to Windows PC

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Coming to Windows PC

Final Fantasy XIII was, at once, everything right and wrong with the modern Japanese RPG. It delivered on the spectacle, but seemingly at the cost of cutting down on the exploration and complexity that drew us all into JRPGs. The experience of those dim days of playing earlier FFs all night long in rooms lit only by the glow of CRTs, so engrossed we might as well have fallen into the worlds they laid out for us to explore? Gone. There was no room for that, Final Fantasy XIII was an experience, dammit. Fortunately, Square Enix seemed to realize their missteps, and when it came time to make some sequels to Final Fantasy XIII, it worked on correcting some of its mistakes. Final Fantasy XIII-2 has environments with a few more branching pathways to explore, a time travel element to add variety to the environments and a monster-recruiting system to spice up the battles. And now it’s coming to Windows PC, with an enhanced edition and a budget price. The

Developer CD Projekt Red today announced the release date for its upcoming RPG The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt. The game will be released on PC, PlayStation 4 and XBox One on February 24, 2015 as announced during a summer conference by the developer today. The developer also released the following trailer for The Witcher 3. It’s immediately obvious that The Witcher 3 looks gorgeous; clearly the focus on next generation development in favour of cross generation development has allowed the team to push the extra power available on higher spec PCs and the PS4 + XBox One. It’s also worth nothing that all footage in the trailer is in-game. There’s lots to take from the new trailer for The Witcher 3 including fighting giant monsters, sailing across a torrid sea and some stunning lighting effects. As if announcing the release date for The Witcher 3 and giving gamers a new trailer, developer CD Projekt Red also offered up information regarding the collectors edition of the game. The Witcher 3 will
