3x1-L

Assassin's Creed Syndicate

This game takes place in London in 1868 during the Industrial Revolution. Like many of the earlier games it is told as a simulation played in the present using the Animus technology from the Abstergo company from the viewpoint of an anonymous Assassin initiate. In the present Rebecca Crane and Shaun Hastings clash with the Templars who are searching for a Piece of Eden in modern day London. There are regularly short sequences in modern times, but the game is almost entirely played in the simulation of London following the Assassin twins Jacob and Evie Frye who look for Pieces of Eden.

X Rebirth

X: Rebirth is set in the Albion space system which was established in X³: Albion Prelude. The player takes the role of Ren Utani who discovers the legendary space ship Albion Skunk and, together with his co-pilot Yisha, gets involved in the faction war between the governing Pultrach Mining Corporation and the Heart of Albion rebels. The campaign mostly serves as introduction to the game elements as the game's focus is still on player freedom.

Cradle

Mongol cyberpunk, a rare glimpse of humanity's dys-steppe-ian future. Helped by a broken gynoid, a man looks for his past between a cozy yurt and a derelict amusement park. Cradle is part point-n-click, part puzzle-action - although the most action-oriented puzzle rooms may be skipped (or tackled later on) without interfering with the story. Streamlined checkpoint and inventory systems also make hoarding useless, so you can lose yourself to the atmosphere and mysteries of a dying world.

Victor Vran

Victor Vran (titled 'Victor Vran ARPG' on Steam) is a monster hunter tale told in timed combos, weapon switches and wall jumps. It's also a controller-friendly game boasting no less than two control schemes for keyboard & mouse. The hero is voiced by Doug "The Witcher" Cockle and a Motörhead-themed expansion is in the works. Gotta love vranservice.

Binary Domain

In the late 20th century, global warming consumes 75% of the world habitable land, forcing mankind to build new, raised cities above those that are now claimed by the sea. But the flooding has not only claimed land. Millions of people have been killed as well, leaving humanities workforce severely depleted and as a result, have created a robotic workforce to handle the workload.

Mad Max

The game reboot of the movie reboot. In a world that knows neither mercy nor windshield, a lost man fights to survive the madness and leave it behind in a plume of smoke. A dusty drive'n'brawl show from the makers of Just Cause.

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes
