Final Fantasy XIV: EndwalkerĪfter one of the worst MMORPG launches ever, it’s a miracle that Final Fantasy XIV is still around a decade later. Ubisoft certainly picked the right actor to lead an oppressive government, with Breaking Bad and Mandalorian villain Giancarlo Esposito portraying the nefarious “El Presidente” who we’ll be looking to topple later this year. According to Ubisoft, the theme of the game is revolution against an oppressive government, with substantial research going into how and why revolutions are fought to better develop the game’s setting and story. It’s still expected to be out in 2021, though. Far Cry 6įar Cry 6 was originally supposed to be out by now, but development has slowed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Each minion in your lair now has their own personality and traits, so you’ll have to use them more strategically than ever to prevent the Forces of Justice from foiling your evil plans. You’ll be able to pick from four different evil geniuses at the start of the game and one of three islands. World Domination promises to be a bigger and better sequel. If you never had the pleasure of playing the original, imagine being a James Bond villain and managing your own secret lair to build a weapon of mass destruction and eventually take over the world.
It’s taken 17 years to get a sequel to the criminally underrated Evil Genius, but it’s finally here. This should be exactly what we need to tide us over until Diablo IV hits. The updated 3D graphics will display in 4K, but you can switch back to the original graphics at any point with the press of a button.Īnd while there will be some quality of life improvements like a shared item stash and automatic gold pickup, don’t expect any revolutionary changes that will spoil the original experience. Knowing how much this game means to a lot of people, Vicarious Visions has said it’s not out to reinvent the wheel for Resurrected. While Diablo III’s reputation has improved substantially since its controversial 2012 launch, there’s still a vocal group of gamers who prefer the second game in Blizzard’s genre-defining action RPG series. If Deathloop’s heady concept can hold up, it could be another home run for the developer. Not only is there going to be a Tales game for the PC, but there are also the Hyperdimension Neptunia remakes (with the third one incoming this year as well), Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, and some more niche titles such as Fairy Fencer F, Akiba’s Trip and One Piece Pirate Warriors 3.Arkane has a great track record when it comes to unique first-person games like Prey and the Dishonored series. It’s a good time to be PC-owning jRPG fan. It’s possible to fuse your character with another for improved strength and abilities during battle, and if you like dragons, you’ll be happy to hear that they’re prominently featured in Tales of Zestiria.
Your character has to battle enemies who appear when people experience negative emotions, and establish harmony between regular and supernatural humans. Why you should try it: Released in Japan last January, the latest Tales game is the only AAA jRPG on this list, offering what one would expect from such a title: anime styling, seamless cutscenes and real-time combat. It continues the story of Geralt the Witcher and lets you control him as he travels and explores the immense in-game world. Despite some controversy about graphical fidelity being toned down to console ports, Wild Hunt has garnered nearly universal praise, and many proclaim it the best game in the series. If you consider that only three of those are fantasy RPGs, then you could say Witcher 3 has the market cornered.Īnd deservedly so.
#BEST PC GAMES OF 2016 SO FAR SERIES#
Bioware’s other big franchise, Dragon Age, produced the third game in the series last year, while Bethesda was probably too busy with Fallout 4 to pump out another Elder Scrolls.
Both Eidos Montreal’s Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Bioware’s Mass Effect: Andromeda are scheduled for 2016. In fact, if it weren’t for Fallout 4 coming out later this year, it would have remained the only such game. Why you should try it: CD Projekt RED have great timing – at the time, Witcher 3 was practically the only AAA RPG on the PC. What is it? The final entry in the Witcher saga.
