5 Xbox One Exclusive Games To Look Forward To
Ghost Recon: Wildlands is the tactical open world co-op shooter that fans have been dying to see. Getting to together with a group of four friends and taking out outposts with any number of approaches has been a dream promise, but it only seems like now that Ghost Recon: Wildlands can finally deliver. We will admit that Ubisoft’s track record with multiplayer games is a bit spotty, but our hands-on time with Wildlands left us eager to play m
To sail the seven seas, embracing the life of a pirate is a dream that E3 is keen to deliver with Rare's Xbox and Windows 10 exclusive Sea of Thieves . After debuting at Microsoft's press conference during E3 2015 , everyone expected more of the first-person pirate adventure game to be shown this year as well. Rare did not disappoint on expectation, delivering the first gameplay as well as a new cinematic trailer. Rare even went beyond expectations, going onto the Youtube Live E3 stream and showing off another block of gamep
Sea of Thieves is an Xbox One and Windows 10 exclusive with no currently announced release window, though it is part of Microsoft's Play Anywhere program . Expect more information on Sea of Thieves PvP guide|https://seaofthievespedia.com/ of Thieves in the months to c
Battlefield 1 delivers exactly what the fans wanted, the familiar multiplayer combat of DICE’s FPS series, but set in World War 1 . From the sights and sounds, to the weapons and vehicles, Battlefield 1 presents the time period as best it can without veering too far away from the franchise’s identity. And with 64-player multiplayer at E3 2016 it was hard not to come away excited to see m
Interestingly, Rare didn't have anything else to say about how Sea of Thieves would be monetised after its launch next year. All Mayles could offer in that regard was a broad design philosophy that hints towards a content release plan similar to that of Destiny or other long-term investments like The Divisi
At one point the open world crime genre was packed with titles, but since then most have cleared the way for Grand Theft Auto . Mafia 3 , however, is trying to stake its claim on the genre with a unique setting, a unique main character, and some clever mob mechanics. Set in a city not unlike New Orleans, Mafia 3 has players taking control of Lincoln Clay , an African American vet who is trying to build up his own mafia in order to take down a rival mob. While the Mafia games have always explored the management aspect to building up a squad of loyal enforcers, Mafia 3 makes it feel like you are really developing your own ma
After Microsoft acquired the rights to the Gears of War franchise , The Coalition (formerly known as Black Tusk Studios) quickly went to work on a fifth entry in the critically-acclaimed series. E3 2015 saw a stunning gameplay reveal of Gears of War 4 , which is looking to bring back the grimmer horror elements and 2-player co-op that helped make the original such a hit in the first pl
Rare was a legendary developer back in the golden age of gaming. When the beloved company was perfectly partnered with Nintendo, the partnership went as well together as peanut butter and jelly and through 1994-2001 everything was fine and dandy until game development cost began to gradually increase and Nintendo decided not to provide the company with more capital nor did they buy up the remaining stake that was leftover, forcing the company to search for a potential buyer to stay in the game. In the end we all know that Microsoft purchased the company for $375 million and from that day on Rare was a first-party developer for Microsoft.
With only one really game to show, Nintendo was going for broke with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild . Luckily, the demo Nintendo had on-hand built multiple games worth of hype, showcasing tons of exploration and teasing an interesting storyline. This was not the Zelda most are familiar with, but in this context that is a good thing. Although we are only recognizing a group of games as the best of E3, there’s no denying The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was one of the best games we saw all s
Now the current occupation of creative team members in the company rely on one thing and one thing alone to sell their games: nostalgia. The current Rare as we know it relies heavily on gamer's nostalgia of IPs of gaming’s past. It's no coincidence that Rare Replay (an amazing collection of old Rare Games) was released during the same time Microsoft was announcing that Rare was going to be making more "Traditional" games again. Don’t be confused; even though Rare Replay was released on Xbox and marketed as Rare titles, these are in no way a reflection on the current company. The majority of the games seen in Rare Replay were done by employees that no longer exist at the company.
