According to Xboss Phil Spencer, even if Fable 4 is real (Oh Spencer, you scamp!), Microsoft’s new strategy is to reveal games when they can show off gameplay before they announce a release date.

You can’t blame most people for not having played The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. The original Gameboy adventure launched all the way back in 1993, garnering a cult following since thanks to its weird character inclusions from across the Nintendo spectrum and quirky tone. It’s a game that would be tough to play in its original form today, which …

With an April 2020 release date on the horizon, it's great to have a better idea of what type of game Cyberpunk 2077 is shaping up to be. It's easy to be reductive and call it a prettier immersive sim in the vein on Deus Ex, but it's looking to introduce a far more fleshed out paths for you to play the way you want, when you want.

DOOM Eternal looks exactly like what you’d want from a sequel to the 2016 reboot: just, well, more DOOM. There’s demons galore, Hella dn Heaven and more sequences for Doomguy to just steal the show, making it seems like very few changes have made it in. That couldn’t be further from the truth though. id Software have taken a lot of feedback on what worked best in their reboot, and fixed what didn’t hit the mark. Which is why DOOM Eternal has a distinctly different visual style that harkens back to its more arcade roots.

Every character you see walking the streets, patrolling restricted areas and even shooting at you can be recruited with varying degrees of difficulty. Legion promises an experience that will give each of these characters a story to tell, but just how high does the ceiling of this simulation go?

There's no disputing it – The Outer Worlds looks like a Fallout game in all but name. Which shouldn't come as a surprise, given that Obsidian Games is behind it. As the creators of arguably the best Fallout game out there (even with New Vegas' misgivings) it's still somewhat surprising how much of that DNA is retained in Outer Wilds. That isn't to say this looks like a decade old RPG either. Outer Wilds instead looks to build on ideas that haven't worked out as well in past Obsidian ventures, giving you even more ways to approach its more open-ended quests.

Wolfenstein and the Nazi-killing escapades of B.J Blazkowicz have never been better thanks to MachineGames. Both The New Order and The New Colossus have been tight shooter romps with a delicate mix of old and new; Blending stealth gameplay with punchy first-person shooting, wrapped up by strong writing and captivating characters. But Youngblood isn’t about the past. Instead, it’s forging …
