World of Warcraft lead Ion announced the WoW: Shadowlands expansion with an incredible new cinematic trailer at BlizzCon 2019. The lengthly cinematic continues the story established in BfA and focuses on World of Warcraft lore. It depicts an encounter between Sylvanas, who has traveled to Icecrown, and the current Lich King, Bolvar. Sylvanas arrives at Icecrown in pursuit of something much more nefarious than just claiming the throne for herself though. The trailer's twist ending sparked a ton of debate on the internet and in the WoW commun   There are multiple reasons why a next-gen Fable should be a reboot instead of a continuation from Fable 3 . First off, a non-numbered Fable is much more welcoming than a numbered entry that continues a series that had its last official entry release ten years ago. Players can jump in without having the question about whether they should have played earlier entries to be able to even understand this new g   One of the joys of playing Breath of the Wild is its sense of freedom. Like any open-world game, there are always limitations, but the magic comes when a developer can give a sense of freedom while successfully hiding the limits of its virtual world. Breath of the Wild excels at this. Fable should not copy Breath of the Wild's open world as Fable has its own beloved gameplay and style, but a next-gen Fable would do well to make the revolutionary step forward that made Breath of the Wild so endearing and engaging for the Legend of Zelda franch   Overall, E3 2019 did a solid job of shining a spotlight on a variety of upcoming horror games that are coming in 2019 and beyond. With GhostWire: Tokyo , we may have even gotten our first glimpse at a next-gen horror game, and so there should be plenty of frights in store for gamers in the fut   Perhaps the biggest title fans were anticipating from Square Enix at E3 2019 was Marvel's Avengers . While this game had been previously announced with a dark and ominous teaser, nearly nothing had been shown before this year's event. The E3 2019 trailer gave fans their first look at the game and its five starting heroes: Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, and Black Widow (Ms. Marvel wasn't confirmed until later). As the trailer reveals, a celebration turns deadly, splitting up the team until five years later when new threats force them to reassem   One of the biggest, if not the biggest game at E3 2019, was CD Projekt RED's ambitious open world title, Cyberpunk 2077 . The CG trailer introduced fans to the male version of V, showed off lots of newer story elements and plot points, and finally gave fans what they want: An actual release date for the game. With one of the biggest questions about the title answered, the studio could've stopped there. Instead, it upped the ante even further by announcing the inclusion of Johnny Silverhand played by none other than Keanu Reev   Blizzard revealed Diablo 4 with a very lengthy cinematic that puts the spotlight on the game's main villains and the return to a dark, gothic-inspired tone. In the cinematic trailer, fans witness the villain Lilith summoned, complete with Satantic horns and what appears to be a huge (and disgusting) cape made out of human s   The gaming landscape has changed considerably in that time. With the new generation of consoles came new standards for design, and while Fable , for the most part, holds up in terms of gameplay, there are mechanics within it that may have trouble in the new wave of video games. Specifically, there are bound to be difficulties with Fable's handling of morality, and with how significant the mechanic is to visit the up coming website game, it may create other hurdles as w   As far as indie horror games go, one of the most intriguing titles on the horizon is easily Undying . A freshman effort on the part of studio Vanimals, players take control of a mother and son as they attempt to survive in a zombie apocalypse. While there are no shortage of zombie games out there, the mother/son dynamic of Undying is something different, and the game's unique art style will also help it stand out from the cr   What was possible for open-world RPGs in 2004 versus what can be achieved now is drastically different. There are some exceptions, Morrowind managed to bring a well-realized open world to the Xbox, but Fable, visually, was a far superior game, obviously leading to restrictions in other areas. The core elements of RPGs have remained the same, but morality systems are an exception. For the past few decades, what gamers want out of a morality system has shifted dramatically, and with it, the way that gamers think about a narrative as a wh   It's no secret that Nintendo likes to keep its cards close to its vest when it comes to projects that are early in development. However, the big N made a very surprising reveal at the very end of its E3 2019 Direct by showing some teaser footage for a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild . The footage shows Link and Zelda exploring a dungeon below Hyrule Castle and the pair run into a reanimated corpse that could be a familiar old foe... There's still no word on when this title will arrive, but the trailer did a great job sparking discussion and hype for the ti
