Players can also dive into a number of side-quests (dubbed sub-stories), which can be taken up by the player to gain additional rewards and players.

Set 100 years before the events of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nintendo and Koei Tecmo’s Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity gives the series a hack-and-slash twist once again. The combat system, material crafting, and weapon-upgrade systems from the original Hyrule Warriors will make its return, but new to this entry are environmental puzzle solving elements that make use of the Sheikah Slate. We’re especially looking forward to taking control of the four Champions, which will all be playable.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity will come out for the Nintendo Switch on November 20, 2020.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales

Kicking off the launch of the PlayStation 5 is Bluepoint Games’ Demon’s Souls, a complete overhaul of the PlayStation 3 classic by From Software.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Ubisoft’s long-running Assassin’s Creed franchise takes the series to Nordic roots with the release of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla.
