More details about new games from E3, Project Scarlet, Konami console - special E3 digest from Cadelta. Part two (Topic)

We continue to review the biggest moments since E3

IGN's New Gameplay The Outer Worlds

In addition to the game's new trailer and release date [October 25] IGN gave us an exclusive 11 minutes of gameplay.

They showed only a little in it: shootouts, dialogues, stealth, as well as a rating system. The game constantly monitors the player's actions and analyzes what he is bad at. After that, it hangs certain debuffs on it.

Five characters, familiar storyline - details from Square Enix's Avengers private screening

The Avengers release was a very contrasting one compared to everything else Square Enix presented. Backstage for journalists was shown 20 minutes of gameplay, and so far everyone is happy, and they call the game a good action movie without much revelation.

In the demo shown to reporters, they saw the prologue, which was an extended version of the trailer. In it, during the celebration of Avengers Day, an explosion thunders on the Golden Gate Bridge, and the heroes go there.

Journalists saw five minutes of gameplay for each playable character: Thor, Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America and Black Widow.

Thor's gameplay is reminiscent of the latest God Of War. The God of Thunder smashed enemies with a hammer in close combat, and also threw Mjolner at enemies, after which the hammer returned to him. In the lower right corner there were three cells that are needed to perform specials. techniques, for example, during one of them Thor made a crushing blow in a jump.

The gameplay for Stark was that he flew over the bridge and burned everything with his repulsor. His special ability was his ability to use a powerful beam from his chest.

The Hulk, as one would expect, destroyed everything, threw cars and even corpses. He also has platforming elements in his game.

Playing as Captain America was like fighting in Marvel's Spider Man. As there, Cap constantly fought, performing combo links, and during evasions, time slowed down a little.

But the game for the Black Widow impressed the journalists the least. They were shown her fight with the Overseer boss, but it was not clear when the gameplay was, and when the cutscenes. In general, the game is praised, but many consider the plot about heroes who became outcasts after a disaster that occurred through their fault, not fresh.

18 minutes of Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 gameplay

The trailer presented in the early days of the conference consisted of cut pieces of gameplay, and it was difficult to understand it. However, Paradox Interactive prepared a full 18 minutes of gameplay for us, from which we learned a lot, for example, our favorite stupid dances in nightclubs are back with us! Also:

• As in the first game in the dialogues, the answer options will be listed
• The world is again divided into zones: in some you can use weapons, in others you cannot, also in some Masquerade works, and in others not.
• Hero can prancing on walls and jumping over fences
• The world is interactive, for example, you can tear off a pipe and turn it into a weapon
• The game is not very well controlled by the gamepad

This compilation will be released on PC and console from Nintendo on September 3rd. For PC boyars, the game will be released on Steam. The game can already be pre-ordered there for 1 399 rubles . But in the Nintendo store it is not yet, by the way, there the game will cost 2,600 rubles.

Iron Galaxy, which previously worked on the port of Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, brings the game to PC.

Recall that the remake includes three classic games: Spyro the Dragon, Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon.

Nintendo announced a sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of The Wild

Since the first installment of Breath of The Wild was a hit and second best game in the series after Ocarina of Time, it's no surprise that the studio decided to make a sequel. In the teaser, we see Link and Zelda walk through the dungeon and witness the awakening of a new evil. These are all the details that we know so far.

Konami has announced their console, which should make us nostalgic

Konami decided to follow the trend of mini reboots of classic consoles and announced their TurboGrafx-16 mini. Once upon a time, this console was released by NEC Home Electronics and Hudson Soft in Japan in 1987. She reached the rest of the world in a year. Thanks to the availability of the CD-ROM, it competed well with the consoles of the time.

As a classic, the new console is reduced in size, repeats the original gamepads, and also has a classic set of games with the ability to save progress.

The content is as follows:

• R-Type;
• Ys Book I & II;
• New Adventure Island;
• Ninja Spirit;
• Alien Crush;
• Dungeon Explorer

Full list of games will be announced later.

13 minutes of Dying Light 2 gameplay

Since the announcement of Dying Light 2 at the last E3, we haven't heard much about it. It took the developers a year and another E3 to fix this. We were shown a gameplay video of the game, and the following points became known:

• The game world will be larger than the original. It is divided into seven areas, there will be no loading screens. Some areas can be changed, for example, blowing up buildings.
• The entire environment is interactive and there will be no unapproachable walls for parkour.
• This time, the developers are putting more emphasis on human opponents, and endowing them with smarter and more cunning artificial intelligence.
• The ranks of the already familiar zombies will be replenished with new representatives.

Details of Project Scarlet, Microsoft's next console

At E3 we received confirmation that the company is working on a new console, code-named Project Scarlet.

CNET interviewed the head of the Xbox, Phil Spencer, who gave at least some details. The console will have a floppy drive as required by backward compatibility. In addition, the company believes that the basis of any gaming library is physical media.

Spencer was asked if Project Scarlet will be the company's latest console. He replied that he did not know, but during his career he had heard more than once about the death of consoles, which never happened.

The price has not yet been determined, but Spencer said that the company will not chase high sales, as its main profit is software and operating systems.

Whether Project Scarlet will be the only console or, as in the case of XOne, two versions await us - the head of the Xbox did not tell.

A touching story from EZ about Cyberpunk 2077

One of the highlights of the exhibition is when Keanu Reeves took the stage during the Cyberpunk 2077 release date announcement. He then talked about the Night City:

“The feeling when you walk these streets is like it’s really amazing!”.

At that moment, one of the spectators shouted "You are amazing!" Keanu answered him with exactly the same phrase, and then turned to the audience with the words: "You are all amazing!" Stories of this daredevil video blogger named Peter Sark got a lot of likes on social networks. He was contacted by CD Project Red and told that for the courage they would give him a collector's edition of the game.

As it became known, he refused the gift and asked in return for the studio to make a donation to the Gamers Outreach fund, and also purchased the GO Kart device for the Children's Hospital - this is a special game stand equipped for medical institutions. It costs $ 3,500.

On the Internet, people began to criticize him, allegedly he made the studio pay for his trick not $ 250 [this is how much a collector's item costs], but $ 3500. However, the blogger explained his position and posted a screenshot of the correspondence with a representative of the studio. In 2007, his 17-year-old sister with leukemia was hospitalized at Children's Hospital and died. At one time, he constantly dragged Xbox to her at the hospital to amuse her. The hospital staff took great care of his sister, which is why Sark is still trying to support the hospital.

On our own behalf, we can say that 3500 dollars is not that much and a large amount for the most striking fragment of the exhibition, which made people pay even more attention to the game.

30 minutes of Watch Dogs Legion gameplay

Recall that the most intriguing thing about Watch Dogs Legion demo at this EZ was the ability to play as any npc. To do this, you need to recruit a person to the DedSec organization. You will have to influence the changes in his life for the better, so that he himself wants to join your ranks.

Yubisoft assure us that each of them has their own unique characteristics, daily routine and even relatives. See gameplay for more.

New Ray-traced Control Trailer

In the new Control trailer, we were shown diffuse and global lighting, contact shadows, and transparent reflections. We did not learn anything new about the game itself, but the trailer is beautiful.

This was all the important E3 news.
