Bethesda’s E3 Extravaganza began with a short video about the creators at Bethesda and showed off how tightly knit they are. It’s great to see that people care for what they do, especially when they are making games for the fans and themselves.
Rage 2 is an exciting game and sequel to the first Rage in which the player runs around a post apocalyptic realm, where chaos reigns free. Any vehicle the player finds will be drivable, and that is a fantastic fact. There is also a crazy Limited Edition game that includes a freaky wall mounted singing head.
Elder Scrolls Legends is continuing to be a hit among online card game enthusiasts. This game is also being launched on consoles finally, so even more people can start playing.
Elder Scrolls Online Wolfhunter DLC is coming, and it is going to be about Werewolves. There is also going to be a return to the homeland of the Argonians in Murkmire after a lot of fan requests.
Doom Eternal is the righteous sequel to Doom. Doom Eternal is going to bring Hell to Earth and looks to be quite improved on the first game.
Quake Champions is the next big iteration of the huge series. Players will be able to run through beautiful environments while blasting all of the foes to kingdom come. You will be able to download it and start playing this week.
The scary shooter, Prey, has a new paid DLC out called Mooncrash. It will be infinitely different game play where everything count. Fans will also be able to access a store mode, new game plus, and survival mode in an update.
Typhon Hunter is adding a Hide and Seek mode, which features one versus five game play and the players can play as Mimics. Players will have to watch out for everything, as Mimics can take over anything from a chair to a squirt bottle.
Wolfenstein Youngblood will be in 1980’s Paris and feature Blascowicz’s Daughters. This is going to be a fantastic game that can be played solo or co-op, and that is amazing. Having two protagonists to take down the Nazi’s is certainly a game changer.
Prey and Typhon Hunter VR is coming out in the near future. Hide and Seek in Virtual Reality will be both scary and tons of fun. Be warned as this mode will be filled to the gills with jump scares.
Wolfenstein Cyber Pilot VR is a new VR experience in the Wolfenstein Universe about hacking. You will be able to use the player’s hacking power to take control of Nazi bots and destroy Nazis galore.
In a tongue and cheek move, Bethesda decided to poke fun at themselves a bit by creating a Skyrim adventure for Amazon’s Alexa. Introduced in a hysterical mock-commercial, Keegan Michael-Key attempted to play Skyrim through Alexa’s voice commands. People with an Amazon Echo can enable this adventure, which makes fun of the amount of times the game was released for different consoles (see mock article: Bethesda Announces Skyrim for the TI-89 Calculator).
Fallout 76 is the heaviest hitter of the presentation and looks like a new twist on the loved game series. This game revolves around the residents of Vault 76 twenty-five years after the bombs dropped and is, in fact, a prequel to the whole series. This game is also going to be entirely online and played with a small yet undefined amount of other players.
Apparently, there won’t be server lists and players will be thrust between servers with each death. This game will allow people to play with friends and explore but can also be played solo. It’s a game that can become chaotic quite quickly with random players coming to kill you at any time. The player will never know who they will find when jumping into the game and that is great. There are also Atom Bombs which will require keys to unleash. With these terrifying bombs to unleash, this game becomes even more terrifying. At least the progress stays with the character when they die.
Base building is also back and with the C.A.M.P., the player can build anywhere at will. Just don’t get too attached! Fallout 76 launches November 14th of this year, and that is just in time for the holiday season!
Fallout Shelter is coming to PS4 and Nintendo Switch, and of course, it’s available already. Having been released three years ago now, it’s been made available on every system imaginable. The Switch is a great place to play it, and it looks great.
Elder Scrolls Blades is a mobile version of the Elder Scrolls Series. It is teased to be a full game with tons of content. Questing through a world like this on the phone is so unbelievable. There is a Roguelike dungeon called the abyss, PVP in the Arena, and The Town which is the main game. Take control of an elite warrior and head into this new world. The game can even be played in Portrait mode, which is great for when a free hand is necessary like in a business meeting! This game will also be released on as many systems as possible.
Starfield and Elder Scrolls VI were also teased. Though no release dates or time frames were revealed, the hype was still palpable.
Bethesda really knocked this E3 out of the park with tons of great reveals. What a presentation! This really should make fans happy.
