I almost got to watch the Future Games Show live, and I did catch the end live once I got my Internet to cooperate with me.
They started out with the upcoming horror game Quantum Error, which I was already interested in and actually interviewed the developers about over at another site I run.
I’m not completely sold on Dustborn, but it looks interesting enough for me to keep my eye on it. After that and Ghostrunner, they went to Call of the Sea, another adventure game I’m interested in playing.
The next game was Sherlock Holmes Chapter One, the next adventure game from Frogwares, and even though I’m not crazy about it being open world, I have to admit it the idea of a game starring a young Sherlock Holmes is intriguing. I’ll have to consider it, maybe after I play the Sherlock Holmes games I already have.
I’m not a big fan of shoot ’em ups, but Cygni does look pretty. I’m much more interested in the next game they showed, though, Morbid: The Seven Acolytes. Described as a “gothic RPG” and also “horrorpunk,” it definitely looks like my sort of thing.
As you can see, this show was off to a much better start for me, with so many games right in a row that I liked. The next few after that, I wasn’t quite as interested in. Hotshot Racing, another look at Cris Tales (which I’m interested in, but I just saw it at the PC Gaming Show), Liberated, Neon Abyss, Skater XL, the announcement that GTTOD: Get to the Orange Door is coming to the Xbox One…
Then Waking, which looks potentially cool, Space Crew, and then Maid of Sker. I remember Maid of Sker being announced, and it looks like one I’ll definitely need to check out.
This is where it started to slow down a bit for me.
We had a montage of games, another look at Remnant: From the Ashes – Subject 2923, a game called The Captain is Dead, a game called Main Assembly, another look at Blankos Block Party, a new map coming to Last Oasis, and then a discussion about “the future of gaming” in general.
When they got back to showing games, they featured Wasteland 3 and then Remothered: Broken Porcelain, which I’m curious about, although I haven’t played the first Remothered.
They teased Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Heart of the Forest, then switched to another conversation, this time about cross-play.
After that, they returned with Rogue Company, Outriders, Disintegration, another look at Paradise Lost, a game called Operation: Tango, another look at Kena: Bridge of Spirits from the PS5 showcase, and a sequel to Serial Cleaner called Serial Cleaners.
Of the three shows today, this was probably the one I liked the best, mainly due to horror games. Huh.
Anyway, that wraps up our Future Games Show coverage! We’ve got a bit of a break for the rest of the weekend, but my Not-E3 coverage will return next week! What did you think of today’s news?
