Every week there are new releases in gaming either it be for consoles, handhelds, PC, or mobile phones. This week it seems to be one of the most packed in 2015, at least until the fall. Here this weeks video game releases:
Batman: Arkham Knight
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, and PC
Rocksteady Studios is back with one last entry in this groundbreaking superhero gaming franchise. After a lackluster and bug ridden Arkham Origins (which was done by another studio), Rocksteady decided to up the anty. This time around gamers will play as Batman on the supposed night he dies. Scarecrow has taken over Gotham with the help of many other Batman rogues including Harley Quinn, Two-Face, and Penguin. Even better: you can finally drive the Batmobile.
If early reviews are any indication, fans are definitely in for a treat.
Available on: PC, PS4, and Ps3
With the re-release of Final Fantasy XIV in the Realm Reborn, Square Enix finally got it right. I personally never played Final Fantasy A Realm Reborn, but I have friends that do. Despite having a subscription plan, the MMO that released last year has held strong and steady number of players. Square Enix hopes to boost those numbers, or at least bring new players in, with its first full expansion: Heavensword.
Available on: PS4, Xbox One, and PC
For those who might have missed the critically acclaimed Devil May Cry 4, like myself, will finally be able to play it. Re-releasing as a digital download (you can pre-order and load on the PSN now), players can revisit or play for their first time what was the final installment in the DVM franchise before the reboot from a few years ago. New graphics and revamped controls, for a $25 price tag, it might be worth it.
*Planetside 2 – a free-to-play online multiplayer game available on the PS4
I graduated college with a degree in Digital Journalism and a minor in Political Science. Writing is my passion and I am a nerd to boot. Some of my fandoms include: Doctor Who, Sherlock, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and DC comics.
