Having gone quiet since the release of Dishonored 2 and Death of the Outsider , Arkane Studios returned to E3 2019 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 an island known as Blackreef. These two assassins continually battle each other in an effort to protect what they believe in either breaking or keeping the cycle al

One of the most interesting Google Stadia features is something called State Share which allows players to share and link to moments of a game. Q-Games, the development team behind the PixelJunk series as well as The Tomorrow Children and Star Fox 64 3D , intends to make full use of it with its next g

Outside of Final Fantasy 7 , the other major title fans were anticipating from Square Enix was Marvel's Avengers . While this game had been previously announced, nearly nothing had been shown. The E3 2019 trailer gave fans their first look at the game and its five starting heroes: Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and Black Widow. As the trailer reveals, a celebration turns deadly, splitting up the team until five years later when new threats force them to reassem

It turns out that Bethesda's upcoming **Doom Eternal story guide|Https://doometernalplay.com/ Eternal ** gained an unusual tie to Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy when it came to naming the sequel. 2016's Doom reinvented the shooter series from its original roots and brought the demonic world of Slayers to the next-generation of gaming conso

Against all of my expectations coming into E3, DOOM Eternal somehow managed to exceed everything that I hoped it would be. As a sequel to the best shooter of this generation (in my humble opinion), id Software really had its work cut out for them in the pursuit of topping everything that made 2016's game so stellar. From what I've played of Eternal , the latest hell-raising shooter doesn't seem to just be a half-step up, but is instead a major improvement in every discernable

Interestingly, Doom Eternal still has a Hell on Earth vibe as the recent QuakeCon gameplay trailer showed the ruins of an apocalyptic Earth alongside the Martian moon of Phobos. Much more than a standard sequel, Doom Eternal will include a change to 2016's maligned multiplayer and also introduce a new 'Invasions' system where teams of players can enter someone else's single-player campaign as a group of bloodthirsty dem

Choice was a big theme among some of our favorite E3 2019 games, like Dying Light 2 . In our demo, developer Techland wanted to highlight how the player’s decisions as Aiden Caldwell will determine the world that they inhabit. Certain areas of the map will be completely locked off if players make one choice, while another player’s map might look totally different. And when it is all said and done, Techland expects players will only have seen about 50% of the g

At GDC 2019, Google announced Google Stadia, its game-streaming, and game-sharing platform. In addition to features like cross-platform play and the ability to get help from Google Assistant, Google also had a few announcements to make about the supported Google Stadia ga

Assassin's Creed Odyssey was part of the Project Stream tests that Google ran last year and the game was front and center again during the Google Stadia announcement at GDC . Google has been working closely with Ubisoft and during the presentation, viewers could see how a Stadia user could seamlessly transition between playing Assassin's Creed Odyssey on a laptop, a PC, a tablet, and a television. The game looked crisp and ran smoothly on each of the devi

Another addition to DOOM Eternal this time around is the advent of 1-Ups which you can collect around the world. Grabbing these will allow you to, well, have an extra life that will revive you on the spot once you die -- and trust me, you will die. This seems like a bit of an odd addition to Eternal at first, but the game also seems like it's a lot harder than 2016's installment based on what I played. Because of this, grabbing 1-Up tokens spread about the world are almost vital at times and will allow larger engagements to be a bit more manageable. The best part of this is that if you do die and have an extra life, you're immediately revived on the spot merely a second later. The pace of the combat isn't broken up whatsoever and you can largely stay locked-in to what you're do

While latency is a concern, it seems that the reception to Google Stadia since its announcement has been generally positive. Stadia has managed to generate quite a bit of buzz, especially thanks to its stage presentation where the ability to immediately switch between different devices was shown off and seemed to work flawles

Although Watch Dogs Legion leaked a few days ahead of its planned reveal, the trailer was able to really show off the unique mechanics and gameplay that Ubisoft was going for with this ambitious title. Fans got a good look at how they'll be able to recruit anyone in the game and then switch to them as a fully voiced and animated character. From punk rockers, grandmothers, business professionals, and everyone in between, Watch Dogs Legion lets players drive the action how they want in this near future version of Lon
