It’s been a long journey, and for a while it seemed like The Last Guardian was never going to come out. The journey is almost over though, as the game finally has a release date. The Last Guardian will be launching this fall on October 25th.

Sony kicked off their E3 press conference with their biggest game, God of War. That’s right, there’s no subtitle or number for this one. The demo showed an older Kratos go on a hunting trip with his son that involves a good amount of fighting. Kratos also has an axe that’s similar to Thor’s hammer in that it comes back to him when he summons it and it appears it can use the power of ice. The demo also confirmed that the game is going to be in a Norse setting. Just based off this gameplay, it looks like they’re taking the series in a different direction from the past games and are trying to make things more personal than before, which I’m 100% on board with. Bring on the Norse gods!

Capping off Ubisoft’s press conference was the extreme winter sports game Steep. It’s a brand new IP by them and it looks to be bringing back the winter sports genre that’s been gone ever since the last SSX game came out in 2012. You can snowboard, ski, paraglide, and wing suit in an open world with friends, and set up challenges for them to complete. The game releases this December, so we won’t have to wait long to play this cool looking game.

I’m going to come out and say it now. Watch Dogs 2 is going to be a great game, and it’s going to be much better than the first game. Sure it’s early to say that now, but just based off the gameplay Ubisoft showed during their press conference I strongly feel like this will be the Assassin’s Creed 2 of this series. Showing how you can go through a mission and complete it without killing anyone was a great move, as you couldn’t do that in the first game. It just opens up the door for multiple different ways to play the game and I can’t wait. It’s also important to note that all DLC for the game will come to the PS4 30 days before anywhere else, so on behalf of all PS4 players, I apologize to those that won’t be able to benefit from this.
Watch Dogs 2 releases November 15th on PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

During their press conference, Ubisoft showed off a live demo of the VR game Eagle Flight. Two teams of three played a match against each other in which they had to capture a rabbit and get it back to their nest. Sure just watching people play a VR game is never going to be the same as actually playing it yourself, but it looks like a lot of fun. It may just fulfill my dream of being able to fly without actually flying.

In addition to getting an awesome new trailer this year that expanded the story of For Honor, we got an extended demo showing a viking siege on a samurai fortress. The game continues to look brutal and methodical in its approach to combat, which is great. We also got a February 14th release date for the game, so it’ll make for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift next year.

I never got the chance to play the first South Park game, but I’m going to make it my mission to play South Park: The Fractured But Whole.

After a year of silence, we finally got some more gameplay of Ghost Recon: Wildlands. It looks to be a good amount of fun with the way everyone worked together to complete the mission. I wonder how many other ways that mission could’ve gone. The game also got a release date, so mark your calendars for March 7, 2017 because that’s when Ghost Recon: Wildlands will be hitting PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
