This game is very highly anticipated as gamers all around the world wait desperately. In true Far Cry style. Far Cry 6 is going to be a first-person shooter with an amazing story.

The game is developed by the purveyors of gaming wizardry at Ubisoft. Fans have very high expectations from this installment of the series as it is going to be dramatically different from all the previous entries. The trailer for this game showcased some brilliant graphics, which looked just as good as real life! In this game, the players will be facing off against president Anton Castillo, who controls the entire island of Yara. This man is extremely violent, and we must fight him for the future of this island.

The players will play as Dani Rojas, who can be played as a male or female character. We don’tknow much regarding the gameplay features of this new title, but it will surely give us a more polished and refined experience as compared to the previous games.

Far Cry 6 is going to get released early next year! The exact release date is February 18th, 2021. I am extremely excited to try this new title out, and I’d give it a 4.5/5.

 

Project Athia: 3rd Person Adventure Video Game by Square Enix – Playstation Exclusive for Limited Time. Late 2020 or 2021.

The teaser trailer for Project Athia which was revealed at the PlayStation 5 live event was quite short, but it was enough to make an impact. Gamers are hyped up to play this third-person adventure game as it looked extremely interesting. This is going to be the next big title by Square Enix, and it will be a PlayStation exclusive for a limited time.

We don’t know much regarding the story of this title as the trailer was very short. However, we do know that the game is going to be set in a magical world, and the protagonist is going to be a female character. This harsh world is going to test the resolve and courage of our beautiful protagonist as she ventures through it.

The graphics of the game looked absolutely stunning in the trailer! We’ll be fighting against some mysterious creatures using our magical abilities.

We don’t have an exact release date for this game. However, it will be releasing late 2020, or maybe in 2021.

I am personally very excited to play this title and enjoy the amazing story. I’d give it a 5/5.

 

Resident Evil 8: Village is going to be the next major entry in this horror survival series. Coming in 2021.

This new title is going to be just as horrifying as the previous entry as it is also set in the first- person perspective. The game is being developed by the highly acclaimed CAPCOM studio, and it is going to be an absolute blast.

Resident Evil 8 has immensely realistic graphics which are going to show us the true extent of the next-generation consoles. The game is going to follow the story of our boy Ethan as he is again put in a dreadful situation, thanks to Chris Redfield. His whole life gets disrupted, and we must help him survive once again.

This Resident Evil title is going to get released in 2021; however, we don’t really have an exactrelease date right now. This title is going to be great, but I am personally not very excited to play it because I believe that Resident Evil works better in third-person perspective. I’d give this game a 3/5.

Spider-man: Miles Morales by Insomniac Studios.  Promised to be one of the best video games of 2020.

Spider-man: Miles Morales is going to be the new spider-man game this year, and as the name suggests, this title will be solely focusing on the story of Miles Morales. This game is being developed by Insomniac Studios, and it is going to be one of the best video games of 2020.

Of course a huge rocket boost for discoverability and video game marketing.  True to Spiderman fans and Marvel comic book fans the world over, the graphics of this game are going be extremely realistic.  Yet still retain a comicbook look which all Marvel games are famous for. The story of this game is going to take place after the events of the previous title in the series. Just like Peter, Miles obtains spider-like abilities and fights criminals to protect innocent people.

This sequel is going to get released with the release of the PlayStation 5 console as a launch title. Fans will definitely grab both, the PS5 and this game together.  I am personally quite excited to try out this new title, and I’d give it a 4.5/5.

 

Horizon Forbidden West by Guerrilla Games.  Coming in 2021.

Now, let us talk about the most highly anticipated PlayStation 5 title, Horizon Forbidden West. This game is going to be a sequel for the highly acclaimed Horizon Zero Dawn, and it is being developed by Guerrilla Games.

The new game has amazing graphics, and the machine dominated world looks even more stunning. We are going to again play as our girl Aloy, who is going to be as badass as ever thanks to her amazing abilities. The game will feature a beautiful open-world which will be filled to the brim with mysteries. Just like the previous game, we will be enjoying a heart- touching story in third-person perspective. An open-world action RPG like this, certainly play tested and tried via multiple rounds of consumer insights and research, this is one title that you cannot afford to miss.

This game is set to release in 2021, but we don’t really know the exact release date. I am personally extremely hyped to try out this title as the previous game was one of the best titles of 2017. I’d give it a 5/5.
