Xbox Bethesda Games Showcase: Top 10 Highlights

Diablo is undeniably a grind-focused series, but -- like with Capcom's Monster Hunter -- the grind is typically done in a genuinely fun gameplay loop. That's why paying to get better armor and weapons as MTX would be especially detrimental to something like Diablo


Batman: Arkham Asylum was a marvel for DC fans, and even for those new to the Batman mythos. Batman: Arkham Asylum featured the Caped Crusader with his iconic Rogues Gallery, locked in Arkham Asylum as he fights his way out through the very criminals he put away. A sequel was bound to happen, but plans for Batman: Arkham City were actually well underway before it was even announced, and proof of that can be found in the Warden’s Off


Don't get us wrong: we definitely want all of the previous character classes back to Diablo IV . Although we've only seen the barbarian, sorceress (or mage) and the druid make their return, we suspect the paladin, amazon, assassin, and necromancer will no doubt make their appearances as w


During this showcase, it was announced that the Necromancer class will be an available class in Diablo IV, which joined the other already announced character classes of Barbarian, Sorceress, Druid, and Rogue. The presentation also showed off some new gamep


Created by Arkane Studios, who also developed Prey and the Dishonored series, Redfall is an open-world supernatural action-adventure FPS that's scheduled to release in 2023. Taking place on the island town of Redfall, Massachusetts, the game follows four unconventional heroes as they fight against the army of vampires who have blocked out the sun and cut off the town from the rest of the wo

Overwatch is perhaps the least demanding of a consumer’s cash as it only has a single purchase point to access the game, but then has the benefit of loot boxes for the many cosmetic skins created for events scattered throughout the year. With that said, the esports push in the Overwatch League (OWL) likely keeps it relevant enough to justify additional development.

Time will tell how much longer Blizzard can keep this up, since the gaming market is saturated with quality titles ranging from Indie developers to AAA games. As time goes in, it is difficult to justify such ongoing costs when the delivered product too closely resembles old content.


Ereban: Shadow Legacy is a science fiction action-adventure stealth game that doesn't have a release date yet. The game follows a young woman named Ayana, who is the last descendant of an ancient race known as the Ereban, as she tries to uncover who she is and what happened to her people. As she explores the world and searches for remnants of the Ereban, she will also uncover the secrets behind the cryptic energy megacorporation called Hel


It almost feels like the game is being turned forcefully into an MMORPG similar to Blizzard's World of Warcraft , only the difference is its dark aesthetic and a different kind of lore and world. Hopefully, the fact that the social features are there won't take away from the game as a solid solo dungeon crawling experie

Blizzard’s current business model is to create games that demand an infusion of cash from their consumers for them to remain relevant in the content of the game, to for the company to justify its developmental resources. Take a brief look at the 2018 earnings below. See a pattern here? All of these games, including those of Activision, and Candy Crush, are always bringing in constant revenue.


We don't have that much information about how these features will work in essence, but they'll definitely give the game a more authentic feel, as well as the encourage players to discover the best available builds while fighting in a harsh and challenging environm


The statue is alive. Held together by chains and metals, the heart of the statue beats slowly, and Nico Belic can do nothing but watch this dark secret. It’s certainly creepy to see a heart larger than a car, and even creepier still that it lies within the iconic Liberty City statue. Yet, it’s just one of many unexplained and mysterious easter eggs in Grand Theft Auto


When it comes to some of the more useless features announced for the game, mounts definitely feel like one of them. Although the world of Diablo IV is supposedly pretty big and mounts would, therefore, dlca make traveling easier, they just seem like another superficial, cosmetic, addit


Luckily for those that weren’t a fan of Jar Jar Binks, they could find the goofy Gungan frozen in carbonite in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed , a now Star Wars Legends game that featured Starkiller, Darth Vader’s secret Sith apprentice . It’s a shame there’s no way to unfreeze Jar Jar and bring him along for the adventu


Rumors circulated surrounding the original Diablo game that there was a "Secret Cow Level". The outcry for this rumor gained so much traction, that Blizzard themselves couldn’t help but actually add the Secret Cow Level to the sequel of Diablo , Diablo 2 . Players needed to combine Wirt’s Leg and a Tome of Town Portal in the Horadric Cube in order to create a red portal that appears in the Act 1 area, bringing players into a hostile dimens
