Splatoon 2 Single Player Mode Shines in Half-Hour E3 Video

During E3 earlier this week, Nintendo showed off a half hour of Splatoon 2 single player. Viewers will be able to check out a lot of content from the upcoming game.

Splatoon 2 Single Player

In the demo, the players start the journey to find Callie of the Squid Sisters. Players will be able to use different weapons throughout each level as well as upgrade them over time. There are even things like giant rollers you can use to smack enemies with. Each part of the game will have different objectives and obstacles that players have to overcome. Making use of “ink” to move up is a must to progress.

A few of the levels will allow traveling on “rails” but the best part is that you can still shoot while moving.

The final part of the video features a boss fight against something called “Octo Samurai” that actually rides a unicycle.

The game has shaped up nicely and looks like a lot of fun whether playing alone or with friends.

Splatoon 2 is set for release on July 21st. You can learn more on its official site.

Dead by Daylight – Steam Giveaway – ALL DLC INCLUDED!

What is Dead by Daylight?

Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught, tortured and killed.

Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey.

The Survivors’ goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer – something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play.

More information about the game is available at http://www.deadbydaylight.com

Sub-Zero Joins The Roster Of Injustice 2

NetherRealm Studio published a new trailer dedicated to Sub-Zero, the latest champion to join the roster of superhero/supervillain fighting game Injustice 2.

Sub-Zero is a lethal cryomancer and leader of the reformed Lin Kuei clan. When Sub-Zero was younger, the Lin Kuei were corrupted and destroyed from within, staining their honor. Now serving as Grandmaster, Sub-Zero vows to redeem that honor, pledging to defend the realm from threats near, far, and beyond. In the intergalactic menace Brainiac, Sub-Zero sees a threat to all worlds, and perhaps his greatest opportunity for redemption yet.

The game is a sequel to Injustice: Gods Among Us. Players can expect to find a collection of their favorite superheroes as well as supervillains and pitch them against one another. You can find out more news for the game here.

Call of Cthulhu Trailer Invites You to Embrace the Madness

Cyanide Studios showed off a new trailer from Call of Cthulhu during E3. As Edward Pierce, players are invited to embrace the madness.

Call of Cthulhu

In the game, players take on the role of Edward Pierce. He is a private investigator. Sent to Darkwater Island, he is checking on the truth behind a family death. However, all is not as it seems. Pierce’s grip on reality gradually slips away as he deals with cultists as well as “otherworldly terrors”.

Pierce's mind will suffer – balancing a razor-thin line between sanity and madness, your senses will be disrupted until you question the reality of everything around you. Trust no one. Creeping shadows hide lurking figures… and all the while, the Great Dreamer prepares for his awakening.

The game will be released in 2017 for PlayStation 4 and XBox One as well as on PC. Learn more on the official site.

E3 2017 – What We Loved About God of War

E3 2017 – What We Loved About God of War

The classic action brawler from ancient Greece, God of War, is getting an upgrade this year. Where it was once shiny and glorious, the game is now shifting to the far North of the ancient world. That means… Norse Mythology! Everyone loves the Viking gods and to bring Kratos into this universe is a great switch for the series. However, the new gods are not his only challenge. Now he has someone else on his heels following his every move, who appears to be his son…? Isn’t that child endangerment. In any case, here’s what we loved about E3 2017‘s God of War preview.

God of War E3 2017 Trailer

The story of a full blown killing machine able to conquer amazing beasts and gods can get pretty dull. After years of amazing fight mechanics and epic battles, the new story of God of War immediately sucked us into the gameplay.  Having a son to train and living in the northern forests changes the tone of the game a lot. As a matter of fact, Kratos takes on a new weapon with his battle ax, a new look, and a much more fatherly tone.  He’s got a hipster beard, after all. Has he finally let go of his rage? We doubt it.

Game developers have stated that Kratos’ son Atreus is a big part of the story, as is the boy's mother who the team will not talk about right now. This dynamic leads to a sense of discovery and connection for the player. You are fighting epic monsters but also looking over your shoulder at the kid. Gaming parents will relate heavily to this idea and it's too bad God of War is not available for this Father's Day. It also seems that Atreus is sometimes playable, in certain situations. This keeps him from being a nuisance the whole game. It’ll be more like The Last of Us, and less like Resident Evil 4.

God of War

The combat and boss fights are still there. In the gameplay trailer, we see Kratos take on a full-size troll in his classic manner. The battleax is a character in itself. Hurling the weapon around like an electric boomerang may seem very Thor-like, but come on, we are now in the north, so that is okay. It is great to see the multiple ways you can fight with the ax and add in different elements.

The full beat down of Kratos is still there but now layered with a deep story and elements that force you to make choices and deal with consequences. Adding Atreus makes the player care much more and brings depth to each new experience. The mentor and student relationship are central to what we have seen in the game so far, we wonder how fans of the series will adapt to this new dynamic. Being that the first game came out 12 years ago, it may just be that players now have children of their own. Of all the action RPGs we have seen at E3 so far, this one hits a great fantasy niche that players will go for. It has been a stand out among some of the other titles shown this week. Kratos is growing up. Nary a boob was seen in the footage. And for that, we’re thankful.
