From August 13 to 17 in Cologne (Germany) will pass Gamescom – The second most important game exhibition of the planet. We are sure that there will be much less high -profile announcements there than on E3. But this is expected: unlike E3, Gamescom is open not only for the press and businessmen (as well as for slippery "hares", winners of competitions and lucky ones who are ready to give a ticket for almost a thousand bucks), but also for ordinary visitors. Let the material have already been worked out, nothing prevents him from showing it wider to the public. This is in the order of things.
But there will be on Gamescom and those who did not have time (or simply did not consider appropriate) debut on E3 – we will talk about them. In this text, we have collected all the most important about games that there is a chance for the first time to see in Cologne. Confirmed information or simply very believable rumors – all this is here!
Quantum Break
Quantum Break – Exclusive for Xbox One. He was announced almost a year ago, but still not really showed. All we saw is a beautiful CG-trailer and only a few seconds (!) gameplay.
Remedy , The once invented Max Payne and Alan Wash, set herself a daring goal: to eliminate the barrier between games and cinema, presenting the "truly new experience". And in 2015, we will receive a third -person shooter at once, and the series that will be released simultaneously and will be unknown to each other. Questions, of course, so far more than answers. How all this will look in the end? Is it possible to change the events of the series with your actions in the game? Whether the proper balance between the components will be observed? How Remedy is going to save his game from fate Defance?
A full -fledged Quantum Break demonstration will be held as part of Gamescom on August 12. The level of expectation goes off scale. This show is other in the main events of the exhibition – no more or less.
Dead Island 2
Attitude to the first Dead Island It depends on whether a person played in him alone or in a cooperative. The solitary mode there is really not very remarkable – well, the island, well, zombies, well, the weapon breaks, but not so fast that it causes difficulty. And the opponents are too stupid and slow to contrast us with something. But a competitive element has already appeared in the multiplayer, and along with the opportunity to unobtrusively join someone's game at any stage, it turned Dead Island into a pleasant, relaxing lesson for a couple of hours before bedtime. Or during a lunch break.
Like in the studio Yager , just now developing the second part: working on Spec Ops: The Line, They spent their free time just in Dead Island. And, of course, they fantasized on the topic that you can change and improve in the game. And when exactly they got the rights to develop the continuation, they were delighted and immediately began to implement ideas. The game made their debut on E3, but the publishers managed to prepare only a witty trailer and last year's prototype, which was shown behind closed doors. Gamescom promises a full version.
By the way, the developers of the source DEAD Island are now busy Dying Light, where there will also be zombies, open peace and, in addition, the thorough parkour “under Mirror’s Edge”. She will also be on Gamescom – let's see who in the end will better cope with the task.
New game from BioWare (Shadow Realms?)
About the new project BioWare Nothing is known yet (even the name), but the advertising campaign of You’ve Been Chosen hints at something impressive. Three teasers talk about three young people who are pursued by some otherworldly forces: one sees nightmares in reality, after the other a person comes in a hood and spreads a restaurant to hell, and the third … However, it is better to look at yourself.
What to wait? We honestly do not know, but, apparently, something mystical-it is not for nothing that a certain ring from the fire on the ground flashes in the rollers. One way or another, the announcement of the new creation of BioWare we will surely see on Gamescom 2014. True here, Casey Hudson , Bioware executive producer, just the other day left the studio – and this is a little alarming.
Until Dawn
Exclusive for PlayStation horror about snow, flashlights and adolescents also promise to show on Gamescom 2014. At least the recent teaser is very unequivocally hinting. To be honest, it is hard to believe in success: developers from Supermassive Games In the past, they did not mark anything, except for disgusting Doctor Who: The Eternity Clock. And the difficult fate of the project is alarming: initially it was dragged under PS Move, which many players had long covered with dust, then changed their minds, then they https://sister-site.org/slots-shine/ began to adapt to PS4, then transferred ..
But we are still waiting for new information – it is very interesting what Sony succeeds there. Moreover, horror are always in a special account.
Assassin’s Creed: Rogue
With every new one Assassin’s Creed Watching stories about fashionable men (and women) in the hoods is becoming more uncomfortable. If Call of Duty -This is a stupid, but still powerful attraction for a couple of moments, then the story about the fraud of the company "Abstergo" requires the player to give all the best.
The open worlds of Ubisoft are made in a single structure and work like this: put conditional towers and make a dozen different types of side effects. And then you spend a few hours on all sorts of nonsense and get a slight bonus, but you do not advance on the plot for iot. This structure cannot be avoided and Unity, where no one is going to change the global mechanics. And s Rogue, which definitely takes as a basis Black Flag) – several cities, a ship, murder contracts, hunting for elusive data – there will be the same. There is a risk that the player will overeat with magical and futuristic conspiracies and parkor, and the Irish accent of the next protagonist-the Assassin-Operator Shay (Shay)-does not move anyone.
For those who are not enough skeptic, – Rogue studio Ubisoft Sofia, they also worked on the game about Avelina Assassin’s Creed 3: Liberation. This is a chamber and rapid story about changing clothes, strong women and male mattresses-extremely important, for example, for feminists Anita Sargsyan, but completely passing for the average player. It cannot be argued that the Bulgarians will certainly make a stupid and unremarkable game – to now arrange a bad Assassin’s Creed with ready -made tools and an established structure, you need to seriously freeze. So far, it seems that the impressions of Rogue will depend on whether you will have time to play up to the nausea in Unity and whether you can forget about dozens of hours spent on conquering sea expanses in Black Flag.
Return Sierra
The name of the company Sierra for many are associated with magnificent quests from the beginning and mid -nineties – like Space Quest, Quest for Glory And Leisure Suit Larry.
Alas, at the beginning of the two thousandth media giant Vivendi I ate Sierra with giblets and slowly digested – by 2008, one name was left of the once great company. In the same year, the Activision Blizzard holding, which included Vivendi Games, spoke about the sale of Sierra, but in the end the question hesitated by itself and forgot about Sierra. Exactly the seventh of August this year.
And on August seventh this year, Activision re -opened the site www.Sierra.Com. On it is a short teaser and signature "Gamescom 2014". One thing is clear: on Gamescom, something will happen that will return the famous name to the stage again.
Dishonored 2
Rumors that Arcane is preparing a sequel Dishonored, where we will go north, in a Tivia similar to Russia, are too similar to the truth. If this game really exists in one form or another, we will probably see it here for the first time. Or we will not see.
Half-Life 3? Left 4 Dead 3?
The first fact : in the new editor Dota 2 evidence was discovered that it was built on the basis of the engine Source 2. Names of files with resources, the magical transformation of the Hammer editor (and it has not changed fundamentally since then Quake He was also considered the king of the shooters) and the recognition of Geib Newell is that “the main improvement [Source 2] is a good productivity in creating content” … Everything converges.
The fact is second : A little earlier, Gabe Newell claimed that Source 2 would be released when the game is suitable for him.
The third fact : Valve announced that this year she will visit Gamescom.
If you are friends with English, watch this video – it contains all the leaks associated with new Valve projects.
The company still has enough time to organize universal scale. You can, for example, limit yourself to showing new controllers for Steam. But … be people!
* * *
There are still many unnecessary names that no one knows anything about. For example, something else hides Sony (maybe David Cage's new game?), and at least two projects should cite Ubisoft. What it will be? We don't know. But still there were no new “heroes” for a long time, you don't think?
In any case, stay in touch. In the days of Gamescom, you will learn about everything first -hand – here, on "Gambling.ru ".
