We’re closing out July on a quieter note than we have gotten used to this summer. Things are a bit slower and may lack the star-power we’re used to, but there are quite a few games launching that I am very excited about. First off, We Happy Few, which made its debut during the Microsoft press conference at E3 will be launched into early access this week. Think BioShock with an even eerier psychological focus. This one has some serious potential to be a major sleeper hit.
With the San Diego Comic Con this past weekend, there was a variety of comic book related movie and game news. On the game front, one of the biggest surprises was the upcoming re-release of the classic Marvel Ultimate Alliance franchise. The games, which launched nearly a decade ago, are both being updated and released this week for the current set of consoles and PC. These are basically Diablo style, action RPG’s, set in the Marvel universe. Each game features a giant roster of your favorite Marvel heroes and villains, including Spider-Man, the various X-Men, Punisher, Daredevil, Luke Cage, and the various Avengers.
