Microsoft plans on launching its next-generation console, the Xbox Series X , at some point later this year. So far, the only first-party game confirmed for the Xbox Series X is the upcoming Halo Infinite , leaving much of the console’s launch lineup a myst

Bug Fables is pretty solid in every aspect, but I will admit to some mild frustration due to the game’s dedication to being a Paper Mario tribute act. As a result of the flat style, sometimes the platforming and puzzle sections were a little awkward. Lining up certain jumps could be hard to gauge as the shadows under the characters were too light to reliably determine where I was going to land. This problem could be exacerbated if I was trying to go toward or away from the screen as the ground might not be fully visible due to the camera’s position. The side view of the game could also be a hindrance to solving puzzles as it would be hard to properly aim abilities like Vi’s Beemerang, which made some puzzles more annoying than they should have b

The next major project from Shinji Mikami and Tango Gameworks was revealed by Bethesda’s at its E3 2019 conference. Ghostwire: Tokyo was revealed with a stylish CG trailer that showed off a futuristic-looking Japan where many of its citizens have vanished into thin air. Viewers can also see a few horror elements mixed in with what appear to be supernatural beings going up against the main character who wields a bow and has access to abilities. Little is known about the game, but the trailer definitely got the hype train star

Having gone quiet since the release of their last big titles, Dishonored 2 and Death of the Outsider , Arkane Studios returned this year to premiere the first trailer for its newest IP called Deathloop . The stylish and action-heavy trailer reveals two characters who appear to be in constant conflict with one another in a never-ending loop on Blackreef isl

Despite all of this information being out there, Playground Games made no announcements over a new Fable . Xbox’s press conference featured some top news as it relates to the Gears of War and Halo franchises, which seemed like the perfect lead up to a Fable announcement. There was also an opportunity to score some major points given that Sony skipped the event altogether.

The Assassin’s Creed franchise is in a bit of a weird spot. Ubisoft has made it clear that it plans to keep updating Assassin’s Creed Odyssey with fresh new content, but strong rumors of a new Assassin’s Creed game have been around for a while, with a Roman and Viking setting both seeming pretty likely. Instead, Ubisoft focused on Watch Dogs Legion during its press conference, which is admittedly a bit like a modern day Assassin’s Creed. However , the lack of a new Assassin’s Creed still left a hidden blade-shaped hole in the hearts of many gam

Fans had probably given up on the Fable series and that was probably fair as it did seem dead. In the run-up to E3, though, rumors began swirling, with Fable 4 being talked up as leaks emerged. Naturally, there was an expectation, especially with the Microsoft crew informing us beforehand that they would have lots in store at the event. They were certainly telling the truth about that, but we imagine lots of Fable fans were let down by the complete blank.

With the E3 2019 festivities starting on June 8 with EA Play, we decided to put together our predictions for what we will see at the show. Some of these predictions seem to have a good chance of happening, while others are a bit more out there. Come E3, it will be interesting to see which predictions are proved true, and which ones didn’t quite pan

The Skate franchise has earned just about as much of a reputation as the Tony Hawk games at this point, and it seems like a no-brainer that EA would want to capitalize on its popularity sooner rather than later. When Skate 3 was added to Xbox One Backward Compatibility , many gamers began speculating that a new Adventure Game story guide was on the way, but no announcement c

All of these details came up in a video that showed up on Reddit. Microsoft did not want any of us seeing it, so it was promptly removed but not before mirrors went up on Streamable (those were also taken down, by the way).

There are pretty much endless rumors about what Rocksteady will wind up releasing next. Word of everything from a Superman game to a Nightwing Arkham City spin-off have made the rounds at this point, but the developer still hasn’t come out and said what it is working on. Fans had anticipated some news during this E3 but had their hopes dashed when Rocksteady Co-Founder and Game Director Sefton Hill stated that the studio would be staying at home in London during E3 to work on the studio’s “next big proje

Tie-in games may be much less common now than they were a decade ago, but that hasn’t stopped Harry Potter fans from fantasizing about their own wizarding journeys. Leaked footage of a triple-A Harry Potter RPG began circulating months ago, but there’s been complete radio silence regarding the project since then. Fans were hoping that Warner Bros. would make a surprise appearance at one of the press conferences this year to show off the game, but the focus was instead put on another adaptation, LEGO Star Wa
