We’re rolling into October in just a few days and the releases just keep pouring into stores. Once again, we have a ton of releases in store for the week, both digital and retail. One of my favorite PC games is finally heading to consoles as Darkest Dungeon launches for both the Vita and PS4. This psychological roguelike is unlike just about anything you have ever seen. While it appears to be a straight forward, turn based adventure game on the surface, you will soon realize that this game is a lot deeper than most you have played. The battle system explores the psychological effects of exploring and battling, which you have to treat between quests or else face the mental and physical effects they cause to your team members.
Soccer fans have their annual release of FIFA 17 on the books for this week. This year’s edition brings a new visual engine which takes the experience to the next level. The game is now powered by the same graphics engine that is used for the Battlefield series and the recent Star Wars Battlefront. Plus, EA is trying something new with a story mode of sorts in the game that has you taking a player from obscurity to super stardom.
Zen Studios is checking in with two more Pinball FX 2 tables based on MArvel Comics thanks to the Women of Power set. This adds the A-Force and Women of Power table to your collections, both of which focus heavily on the females comic fans know and love such as the Black Widow, Squirrel Girl, Spider-Woman, Ms. Marvel, Thor, and Wasp.
Finally this week, we also have the console release of XCOM 2 on both the PS4 and Xbox One. The direct follow up to 2012‘s amazing XCOM: Enemy Unknown is set 20 years later and has you fighting back on an occupied Earth. Fans will find the deep gameplay and customization options that they have come to know and love from the series.
