GAMES

Horizon: Zero Dawn

Guerrilla Games thankfully kicked Killzone into

touch and instead invested their creative talents in

a brand new IP set in a post-apocalyptic world filled

with robotic dinosaurs. Could you possibly want

anything more?

The Legend of Zelda

With each passing year

since the Wii U released

comes the promise of

the Zelda game we’ve

all been waiting for. The

good news? We’ll be able

to play it this coming year.

Probably.

Quantum Break

Microsoft’s first-party software assault continues

with the third-person shooter

Quantum Break

,

a game where players manipulate time to their

strategic advantage. Originally announced two and

a half years ago, QB is due in April.

Mass Effect

Andromeda

BioWare’s superb Mass

Effect series moves

away from the

original trilogy, and is set to deliver

a brand new space opera. Details

are scarce, but with the erudite

writing skills associated with the

studio, the story is likely to be a

belter.

The Last Guardian

How old were you in 2007?

Well, that’s how long this game

has been in development. Little

is known about it at this point,

but when you have the studio

behind

Shadow of Colossus

and

Ico

working on it, the outcome is likely to be

particularly special.

Far Cry Primal

Is the prehistoric era the

developer’s new black? It

would appear so, but to

be honest, wherever the

Far Cry franchise goes,

we’ll be prepared to give

it a shot. It’s survival at all

costs here in an open-world extravaganza where

you’ll rub shoulders with sabre-toothed tigers, et al.

DOOM

DOOM is back and reimagined for a totally new

audience to enjoy. Resurrected from the ashes of

DOOM 4,

players who like their games imbued

with gore and a twist of nostalgia will feel right at

home here.

Street Fighter V

Promising new characters

and a host of new features,

Capcom’s illustrious Street

Fighter franchise returns in

February. It’s a console exclusive

on the PlayStation 4, but SFV

will also release it on PC.

Tom Clancy’s The Division

Announced over two years

ago,

The Division

has been a

perennial slipper. From what

we’ve played, we’re hopeful

the wait will be worth it.

Battleborn

From the studio behind

Borderlands

comes a new sci-fi-themed IP that pits 25 different

characters from a range of different classes in a

MOBA-style first-person shooter.

Mirror’s Edge Catalyst

Is it a reboot, a

reimagining, a sequel?

Who cares – Mirror’s Edge

is back and our favourite

parkour weaponless

warrior Faith returns on

PS4 and Xbox One.

Total War: Warhammer

Swapping the traditional historical setting for

one of the best-known fantasy worlds was a

masterstroke that has gifted Creative Assembly a

great set of principles to work with.

Crackdown 3

If third-person open-world behemoths are your

bag then you’ll want to be all over this Xbox

One exclusive. An action-packed cops

versus crime lords adventure set in a

futuristic city. Hold onto your hats.

Dark Souls 3

Horizon: Zero Dawn

The Last Guardian

DOOM

Quantum Break

TotalWar:Warhammer

Battleborn

Street Fighter V
