E3 2013: The Order: 1886 Reveal Trailer

The-Order-1886-01 The folks over at Ready At Dawn studios and Sony Santay Monica is finally working on a new IP.

If you don't know who Ready At Dawn are, they were the studio behind the Wii port of Okami and the two God of War games on the PSP and SCE (Sony Computer Entertainment) Santa Monica handled the console entries for God of War. Now they're working on a new IP called The Order: 1886 which looks to be what I can describe as a steampunk old style London mixed with some Van Helsing and Japanese anime guns.

The-Order-1886-02The trailer revealed did not show a shred of gameplay but I am guessing and hoping that this is a Third-Person shooter that has an emphasis on action and less cover. While the trailer does not show actual gameplay, the cinematics were said to done using in-game graphics rendered in real time. Not much else is known about the game but since it's the season for video game news, I'm sure we'll get an update soon.

The Order: 1886 will be a PS4 exclusive. Hopefully this will be one of those games that helps carry the console.

E3 2013: Destiny game demo and gameplay trailer

Destiny_Gameplay_THUMB Bungie's next title after the Halo series is Destiny and they have finally revealed gameplay footage for us to take in. I've always been curious to how this online FPS game would play out. These two videos pretty covers that.

Aside from this game looking gorgeous, Destiny really gives the Halo meets Borderlands feel. I would love it if Bungie would go more into detail in terms of character customization and progression. I wonder though if were going to constantly pick up items during each fight(something similar to Diablo or Borderlands) or only during specific enemies in the game.

If you're sold into getting this game, you're in luck. You don't necessarily have to make a decision on what next-gen console to get in order to play this game, Destiny will also be available on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Bungie and Activision is already thinking about Destiny in years to come, with sequels and added content, so this game will definitely be around for a long time.

Destiny is planned for a 2014 release.

E3 2013: Final Fantasy XV Trailer with English Subtitles (formerly known as Final Fantasy Versus XIII)

Final-Fantasy-XV If you've been following Final Fantasy Versus XIII, you'd know of it's shaky development cycle. With Tetsuya Nomura halting development on this to work on other games like Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance and Final Fantasy XIII-2, months and months pass where we get no update about Final Fantasy Versus XIII leading many to believe that the game was just outright cancelled.

That is not the case as Square Enix announced during Sony's E3 press conference that Final Fantasy Versus XIII is back and under a new name, Final Fantasy XV. Shown with a significant amount of gameplay and now running on the PS4, we're all glad that this game isn't dead.

Final Fantasy XV will be released on PS4, PC and Xbox One. Are your bodies ready?

[Update] E3 2013: Kingdom Hearts III Coming to PS4 and Xbox One

Kindom_Hearts_III

Need I say more? We've all been waiting for this for nearly a decade now and they've finally announced Kingdom Hearts III.

The "III" tease at the end of Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance and Nomura saying that the next Kingdom Hearts will be a numbered entry being true is such a sigh of relief. Finally, a proper  home console version of a new KH game. This and the new gameplay trailer that we got for Final Fantasy Versus XIII (now labeled as Final Fantasy XV) is reason enough for me to get a PS4.

I'm not the biggest KH fan out there but I've played most of them and I appreciate the story (convoluted as it is), This geniunely has me excited. All the feels, man. All the videogame feels.

And look, Sora grabs what looks to be Mark Hamil's~ I mean Master Eraqus' Keyblade. You know what that means. :D (VENTUS)

Kingdom Hearts III will be available on PS4 and Xbox One.
