From a gameplay perspective, Ghost of Tsushima is a departure from the Infamous franchise. While those games were all about continuously moving around the battlefield, Ghost of Tsushima is more about studying enemy movement, Tsushimalegend.Com parrying and attacking when finding an opening. Melee combat becomes more nuanced when fighting 1v1, as shown in the final fight with his fallen comrade, Masako. Sucker Punch commented that they’re pulling heavily from Japanese cinema like Yojimbo for the combat. Unfortunately, the HUD was turned making it difficult to determine how exactly the game plays. When confronted, Sucker Punch didn’t explicitly compare combat to any other game on the market but did admit it has elements similar to the Batman Arkham and Middle-earth games.

Sucker Punch Productions officially unveiled their latest game, Ghost of Tsushima , during Sony PlayStation's E3 2018 press conference, giving consumers their first look into a brand new open world game set in feudal Japan. Open world games have somewhat stagnated in recent years, but that's something that the developers behind beloved game franchises such as inFAMOUS and Sly Cooper are looking to change with their new title, which will eventually release exclusively on the PlayStatio

The gameplay in Code Vein was heavily inspired by the Dark Souls series, although, thankfully, it's not quite as difficult. Even so, there's enough challenge here to satisfy most players and more than enough content to keep them busy for quite some time. In that respect, it's one of the more accessible Souls-like games availa

"This is a game inspired by history; we are not recreating history stone by stone. This is an original work. We absolutely love feudal Japan; it's a place that makes our imaginations go crazy. The idea of taking on a world of samurai, especially inside this dramatic situation with the Mongol invasion, is attractive. And we want to get the details right, to transport you back in time, but we don't want to run fast and loose with [the] history that real people went through. That's why the actual names of the samurai that were killed on the beach - we don't use those because we want to be respectf

We got to sit down with Sucker Punch Productions to see Ghost of Tsushima up close. Though it was the same demo shown at the conference, we did learn important new details. The game takes place in 1274 during the Mongols’ invasions of the island of Tsushima. You play as Jin Sekai, the last living samurai on the island. Having lost everything to the Mongols, Jin now fights for the common people as he tries to stave off the invasion.

Spellbreak is a new battle royale title developed by Proletariat, a company made up of video game industry veterans. It looks to mix spellcraft with basic first-person combat. A closed beta will be happening next year on PS4. You can check out TheGamer's full coverage for more informat

As good as Sekiro is, it is still only one game, and fans may be left feeling a desire for more. Thankfully there are other games that can give you that same feeling of challenge and accomplishment. Here are some of the best games like Sek

While this premise and story are much different than anything Sucker Punch has worked on before, Nate Fox finds something romantic about feudal Japan and believes it to be a setting underused by western develop

So yeah, I do think that there's a lot more spaces to play in and I wish the industry would get a little bit wider. That said, I think the industry does a pretty good job at going to places that are unexpect

The game does have its fair share of problems, however. Some of the most notable examples being its generic boss battles and an overall lack of variety in its enemies. It makes up for this though with its strong visuals and some interesting ideas that help it to stand out from some of the many other Souls-likes that are out there. The story's not too bad either, although people who dislike anime might find it a little too exuberant for their tas

When Watch Dogs Legion was unveiled and it was revealed that there were several playable characters such as the granny assassin, it was a big deal for the franchise. Watch Dogs 2 wasn't everyone's cup of tea, but this showed real promise. Shortly after Sony's delays were revealed, Ubisoft followed up with several delays of its own, including for Watch Dogs Legion . Ubisoft essentially explained that it was due to recent under-performances such as Breakpoint , which could have been caused by too many games releasing too closely together, so it chose to delay three games into the next fiscal y

At any rate, there were some pretty good announcements made during this short stream. We got confirmation of a few rumors ( Resident Evil 3 , Untitled Goose Game , Kingdom Hearts 3 Re:Mind ), a short look at Platinum's next title, and even a tease for Ghost of Tsushima . The Game Awards can't get here soon eno
