One potential surprise is the first footage and details for The Avengers project that was announced last year. Rumors indicate that the project has been retooled to be a reboot of the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games , but fans will have to wait until Square Enix’s E3 2018 press conference to be s
In an effort to create more Xbox console-exclusives, Microsoft has been on a spending spree of acquiring studios. Last year’s E3 saw Microsoft announce the acquisition of a number of studios, and we expect that trend to continue at E3 2019, especially with the news that Sony is also buying studios to bolster the PS5 first-party lineup. As for which studios Microsoft may announce it’s acquired at E3 2019, that’s less clear. The leaker that leaked the Microsoft E3 2019 press conference suggested that IO Interactive, Asobo, and Relic Entertainment are all potentially going to join Xbox Game Studios, but we’ll have to wait for E3 to be s
So, while the lack of official news on Fable lingers, there’s still quite a lot to get excited about. Gears of War 5 , for one, will be launching on September 10 this year along with a novel multiplayer mode called Escape . Fans with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate will get to play the game four days earlier, as well as those who purchase the ultimate edition.
Now that Piranha Plant and Joker from Persona 5 are out for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , fans of Nintendo’s ambitious crossover fighting game are waiting to see the next character to join the DLC lineup. There have been various “leaks” about who that character might be, with the most popular theory being that Erdrick from Dragon Quest will be joining the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster next. Whoever the next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC character is, it seems likely that Nintendo will reveal their identity at E3 2019, especially since the game is already confirmed for the s
Next, rolling back the timeframe of a next-gen Fable lets it sit nicely in that medieval fantasy genre like Breath of the Wild . The first Fable was a fantasy jaunt with swords, bows and arrows, magic, medieval towns, and more standard medieval fare. Fable 2 and 3 progressed things forward and introduced industrial elements into its world as well as guns. There are rumors that this next-gen Fable would roll things back to that standard fantasy world, including removing guns from the ga
All of these details came up in a video that showed up on Reddit. Microsoft did not want any of us seeing it, so it was promptly removed but not before mirrors went up on Streamable (those were also taken down, by the way).
While virtually nothing official is known about a next-gen Fable , there have been plenty of rumors dating all the way back to 2018. In fact, many expected a new Fable to be announced and teased at E3 2019, but it failed to appear at the show. But that has not stopped a continued rumor that Xbox has the game under development at UK studio Playground Games, the developers behind the Forza Horizon ser
Square Enix finally broke the silence surrounding Final Fantasy 7 Remake when it showcased the game in a recent PlayStation State of Play presentation. Square Enix has promised that more Final Fantasy 7 Remake news would come in June, and it’s likely that the game will be featured prominently at the company’s E3 2019 press conference. Some recent leaks and rumors have suggested that the game is farther along in development than expected, replayability and so maybe fans will even get a Final Fantasy 7 Remake release date announcement at the s
Xbox has shown that a freedom-driven, open-world experience can be accomplished with its first-party game Sea of Thieves from developer Rare (another UK-based studio like Playground Games, by the way). While Sea of Thieves had its own ups and downs, Rare successfully reinvented the game. Again, not that a next-gen Fable should copy Sea of Thieves , but hopefully learnings (and maybe even technology) from that game could be shared between Xbox’s studios to influence Fable in a way that gives players that sense of freedom and helps the game achieve the grand RPG path that was originally envisioned with Project
The gaming landscape has changed considerably in that time. With the new generation of consoles came new standards for design, and while Fable , for the most part, holds up in terms of gameplay, there are mechanics within it that may have trouble in the new wave of video games. Specifically, there are bound to be difficulties with Fable’s handling of morality, and with how significant the mechanic is to the game, it may create other hurdles as w
Obviously, the team at Moonsprout Game couldn’t get Nintendo to give them Mario, so they went and created their own tiny world. Bug Fables takes place in a kingdom of various bugs, who by order of the queen of the ants – naturally named Elizant – are searching for an ancient relic known as the Everlasting Sapling which can grant its owner eternal l
