During our time at E3, we were able to sit down and get a look at Remedy’s upcoming game, Control. We saw gameplay of some of the areas seen in the announcement trailer. Afterwards, we had a chance to sit down with Remedy Game Director Mikael Kasurinen to ask him about Control and learn how
Announced at last year’s E3, developer Rebellion is now ready to come to market this August with Strange Brigade – a cooperative third-person shooter with puzzle and survival elements. It’s hard to stand out in this crowded field (think Uncharted or Tomb Raider or maybe Horizon Zero Dawn), but Strange Brigade makes a good run
After a long week at E3, a few members of the Gamer Escape staff were fortunate enough to attend one of only two performances in North America for Eorzean Symphony. After the Final Fantasy XIV orchestra concert in Japan last September, we hoped that the show would make it overseas. When we talked to FFXIV
Developed by Dream Reality Interactive, and published by Rebellion, Arca’s Path is easily the most serene VR game we’ve played to date. With your VR headset of choice – and only a headset – you guide a 3-dimensional octagon (or perhaps it was was a decagon) through a maze, passed checkpoints, and to the end. Think
We can always count on XSeed to be showing off at least one unusually interesting game at the E3 booth, and at this year’s show, I would definitely give that prize to Gal Metal. It’s a game about defending the Earth from aliens with the power of metal, played by swinging around the Switch’s Joycon
At last year’s E3, we had the chance to go hands-on with an early build of an upcoming game being published by XSeed, Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin. Despite the short and sometimes obviously beta demo, it became one of my favorites from the 2017 show.
As both an avid gamer, and a big fan of The Walking Dead, I made several jokes to the rest of the Gamer Escape staff that attended E3 this year on our way to check out Overkill’s The Walking Dead. I joked about who was going to die, who I would have to help carry
At E3 we got a chance to sit down and play an entire hour of We Happy Few. For me personally, I knew of the game, I had seen small parts of it years ago, but I hadn’t really kept up with it. It was always something I wanted to see more of though and
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is an upcoming title that many have been rabidly waiting for. Ever since its Kickstarter wrapped up back in 2015, the game’s release has been continually pushed back, but it seems an end to the wait may finally be in sight. Producer Koji Igarashi was present with 505 Games at
The small development team of We Are Fuzzy has built a surprisingly addictive little twin-stick base-building shooter in the form of Sleep Tight. We got a chance to demo the latest build, and talk to members of the team, in advance of its upcoming release. You take control of one of 4 characters (at the
During our time at E3 this year, we had a chance to sit down with Final Fantasy XIV Producer/Director Naoki Yoshida as well as Sound Director Masayoshi Soken who was in town for the Eorzean Symphony Orchestra Concert (more on that coming soon). Be warned, our first questions are a spoiler for Patch 4.3. If
If you ever watched a Mission Impossible, James Bond, or a Jason Bourne movie and thought to yourself, “I could do that”, Twisted Pixel has given you the chance to try—in VR, of course—with Defector. In the E3 demo, you are dropped into the mix as an unidentified super spy in a bathroom. Before you
The Metro series of games have been providing an answer to the question, “Why read books when you can play video games?” Originally written by Dmitry Glukhovsky, the Metro novels have become the inspiration for these games sharing the same title. The games take place in a post-apocalyptic Russia, where remnants of humanity struggle to
[youtube=https://youtu.be/8Idtqyx6gsU] Remedy Entertainment, known for Max Payne, Alan Wake, and Quantum Break, has given us our first glimpse of their next title: Control. Formerly known as “P7”, Control sees the Federal Bureau of Control, a secretive agency in New York, invaded by an otherworldly threat. The main character that we see in the trailer is Jesse
[youtube=https://youtu.be/a-lEnz5QKuM] This evening at Sony’s E3 Press Conference, we got our first look at the Resident Evil 2 remake that was announced back in August of 2015. Not only did we get a trailer at Sony’s event, but a second trailer has also been posted online, showing even more footage! [youtube=https://youtu.be/xyWCWjcAQWU] This remake has been

The trailer (above) shows a Palico and Rathalos from Monster Hunter making its appearance in Hydaelyn. More details about this collaboration will be revealed during the E3 Live
[youtube=https://youtu.be/gPtU_-N6dMg] Yesterday at Microsoft’s E3 conference, Square Enix gave us a brand new trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3. The new trailer gives us a quick look at a lot of elements from the game including the gummi ship, summons, combat, as well as a look at the new worlds in the game, with a focus
At this year’s E3 Square Enix was pushing two of their mobile titles: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, which is celebrating its one year anniversary for its global version, and their latest mobile Final Fantasy XV related title, King’s Knight: Wrath Of The Dark Dragon. We had the opportunity to sit down with Producers for both
David Cage and his studio, Quantic Dream, are polarizing figures in the gaming world. Known for creating games that are more interactive film than video game, you either love the presentation and storytelling or despise it. Having a middle ground opinion here is somewhat rare. I personally lean more on the positive side of opinion
When it comes to localizing smaller or lesser known (in the West) Japanese titles, XSEED Games is generally seen as one of the best. Picking up titles other publishers would never go near, looked upon fairly highly with their English localizations, and having many members of staff take a hard-line anti-censorship stance has made the
