These 10 games and many others are sure to make E3 2017 a can’t-miss event for gamers. And while the games on this list are highly likely to be at E3 in some capacity, it’s worth noting that the show is usually filled with surprises as well, meaning that the most exciting game at E3 might not even be announced
We don’t have much official information on 2017’s Assassin’s Creed game, except for the fact that it exists and is due for release later this year. It appears as though Ubisoft is keeping the game under wraps for a big reveal at E3, but some leaks have suggested that its full title will be Assassin’s Creed Origins , it will take place in Egypt, and its protagonist will be named Ba Yek . Other rumors have teased that the game will abandon both multiplayer and naval combat, suggesting that this year’s Assassin’s Creed may signal a return to the franchise’s ro
Besides the games listed here, there are sure to be many others shown at E3 2018 this year. After all, one of the main reasons to tune in to E3 each year is for the surprise game announcements, and it will be exciting to see everything E3 2018 has in st
Moving forward, non-horror games will continue to slip in scary moments here and there to keep unsuspecting players on their toes. However, these moments will have to be especially clever and inventive if they want to best the scariest non-horror game moments gaming has seen so
E3 2018 is right around the corner, and it’s set to be one of the most stacked years for the show yet. There are a number of high profile, blockbuster releases already confirmed for the show, and when one combines those with the surprises that are no doubt in store, it’s clear that this year’s E3 is going to be h
To be fair, we were warned ahead of time that Death Stranding wouldn’t be at E3 2017. Even so, Hideo Kojima’s reputation for tricking fans meant that there was still a slim possibility the game would make a surprise appearance during Sony’s E3 press conference. Unfortunately, Death Stranding was nowhere to be seen at the show, meaning fans are still largely in the dark about its gameplay features, story, and whether or not there is any truth to the Emma Stone casting rumo
While Fable proper was about taking one’s player through a pre-determined life cycle — making life-altering decisions along the way — Fable Heroes puts up to four players in control of a wide variety of Fable archetypes. Rather than giving each player the gameplay mechanics present in the RPG version of the game, Heroes designates each player’s “puppet hero” with a specific skill. There are a handful of puppets to choose from, some of which hearken back to key moments in Fable ‘s history, but all basically fall into one of three roles (ranged, melee, mag
The second section is arguably the best part of Fable 3 . The king has been overthrown and all those people who’ve received promises from the hero come calling. The hero can live up to their end of the bargain or choose to break the promise in order to earn more money. While it seems like a simple ‘Good v. Evil’ character decision, it’s not black and white. A large amount of money is required to defend Albion from an outside foe. These choices go beyond the standard ‘Good v. Evil’ choices found in most games like this, and it really adds to the experience of the game. Players finally will feel like every choice they make can/will affect the world in some way. In turn, the third section of the game is directly affected by choices in the second. So depending on the choices made in the first sections, the world of Albion will be quite different at the end of the game. In the interest of not spoiling major plot points, I won’t go into further detail about the third sect
It’s hard not to take families with younger children into consideration when reviewing Fable Heroes , but even they deserve something a little better than this. There are hints of complexity that suggest the game is for an older audience, while the look and gameplay make it seem like a broad, kid-friendly title that carries the Fable name. Unfortunately, in service of trying to win over the most gamers (or even non-gamers) possible, Lionhead may lose every
Originally slated for release this fall, Red Dead Redemption 2 was recently delayed into next year. Even so, the game really isn’t all that far off in the grand scheme of things, so one would have imagined that Rockstar would have used E3 to give fans a deeper dive into its gameplay features, story, and characters. On the contrary, Red Dead Redemption 2 wasn’t seen during any of the big press conferences, and since it could launch before next year’s E3, it may never be seen at the show at
The basics of combat are untouched from the previous Fable games. The hero has three types of weapons to use during combat: melee, range and magic. What has changed is how these weapons change over time. As opposed to previous Fable games, where players would modify their weapons with items found in the game, now weapons evolve over time based on how they’re used. Each weapon has multiple ‘Achievements’ associated with it and completing these Achievements cause the weapon to evolve. A sword may develop fire damage after it has killed 200 enemies. Some gamers have complained that this takes away from the customization of the first two Fable Adventure games guide, and it does make playing the game a much more streamlined proc
