With that said, let’s start by breaking down each game, where we’ll discuss everything Todd Howard said.
Fallout 76
It was the first game to be discussed by Todd Howard, where he acknowledged that the problems that plague the game are being solved and that he understands the criticism. However, he also stated that the community is growing by leaps and bounds to his surprise, and he expects this to continue to grow thanks to the introduction of Year 2 with the free Wastelanders DLC, which will be released this fall of 2019.
Without forgetting the battle royale mode called Nuclear Winter, where we will have up to 52 people per map. Plus, Fallout 76 is totally free starting today for one week.
Doom Eternal
The continuation of DOOM will arrive more beastly and dynamic than ever, a great rhythm in its gameplay, new enemies, many bursting skulls and, above all, a lot of action. It will arrive on November 22, 2019 with an additional multiplayer mode called “Battlemode”.
Elder Scrolls: Blades
Introduced under the Nintendo Switch with greatly improved gameplay, Bethesda dropped a little gameplay announcing that it is currently available and where it will be Free-to-play. something that raised applause among the attendees.
The console version will arrive in the fall of this year, although the exact date has not been revealed.
Ghostwire Tokyo
Possibly one of the revelations of the event, hand in hand, of course, by Shinji Mikami and Ikumi Nakmura, both from Tango Gameworks. The game is based on the city of Tokyo, where people have suddenly disappeared, mixing a kind of survival horror and something paranormal for its gameplay, the game has left great reviews in its trailer.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood
Wolfenstein: Youngblood was presented with an even more beastly touch, giving an air more of the frenetic DOOM than any other type of game, with a lot of blood and fire everywhere, yes, but with many evil ___s to kill, even with a friend! !
The game will be released on July 26 of this year, where its trailer is not wasted.
deathloop
With a touch of Dishonored 2, but in a post-apocalyptic zombie environment where the protagonists live in a kind of loop where they will have to kill each other, comes this Deathloop, a game that seems innovative within the genre and looks really good.
The Elder Scrolls Online and Commander Keen
Of these two games only several notes were released and commented. In the first case, ZeniMax Online Studios stated that the capacities of the servers have increased to support new players from all over the world, where a trailer for its latest expansion was revealed. We’ll have to wait for more details at QuakeCon.
Regarding Commander Keen, the game will be coming to iOS and Android, where it is also being developed by ZeniMax Online Studios. It will include a story mode and a battle mode, where it should be released this summer.
ORION Streaming
It won’t be a competitor to Google Stadia or Microsoft’s xCloud, but it will be technology that optimizes game engines for performance in a cloud environment. Robert Duffy and James Altman of id Software presented it with technology that will save up to 20% bandwidth per frame, which will overall save 40% of the game’s total bandwidth and reduce latency.
To do this, they made a presentation using DOOM 2016 on a mobile, where he left some great impressions.
Return Digital
As they usually do, the guys from Devolver intersperse the presentations with a kind of shorts for the cinema, making the evening enjoyable and presenting their novelties along the way. These novelties go through: Carrion, Enter the Gungeon: House of the Gundead, The Messenger: Picnic Panic and Devolver Bootleg.
Return Bootleg
With a total eighties air, this Devolver Bootleg arrives, a pack of eight games that is already available from Steam and that will take us back to that time where gameplay was the center of everything. It is currently on sale until June 16 and within this pack we can find games like: Enter the Gundungeon, Hotline Milwaukee, Ape Out JR., Shootyboots, Luftrousers 3 or Absolvers.
Carrion
If you like being the bad guy in the movie, this title can certainly make you tick. Turned into a slimy beast with tentacles and in a 2D environment, our objective will be to get out of the laboratory and escape, while acquiring new abilities as we kill scientists and staff.
Highly recommended for its playability, retro touch and originality. It will arrive in 2020 with no date specified yet.
The Messenger: Picnic Panic
Again a very eighties title, where we will play a ninja in his search for revenge. Not much information has been revealed about it, but we do know that it will be coming to PC, Nintendo Switch, and PS4 and will be out on July 11.
Enter the Gungeon: House of the Gundead
One of the novelties in every way, again with an eighties air in gameplay and graphics, Enter the Gungeon will take us to some dungeons where we will have to shoot everything that moves on the screen.
The novelty is that it will not reach PC or any current platform, since it will be offered exclusively as an arcade game that will reach theaters around the world.
