Alien: Fireteam Elite
Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a survival and third-person shooter game, ie a TPS, based on the famous film license of the same name. Mainly oriented towards multiplayer, the title will allow you to discover the story of three soldiers who go to Katanga, an abandoned orbital refinery, to evacuate a scientist from the Weyland-Yutani company. On the gameplay side, several weapons are available such as the assault rifle or the flamethrower, but also classes with very specific roles such as the destroyer, engineer, doc tor or scout. Finally, when the experience focuses on eradicating Xenomorphs, the bestiary quickly becomes very diverse, making Alien: Fireteam Elite all the more enjoyable to play.
Dead by daylight
Dead by daylight is an asymmetric multiplayer game released in 2016 and developed by Behavior Interactive Inc. In four-on-one games, the title lets you embody a serial killer trying to decimate the group of survivors while the other participants must escape at any cost. To achieve their goal, they must repair five generators scattered around the map that power the exit doors, or find a hidden trapdoor. Each character has their own skills that affect the strategy to be used, while each role has specific gameplay. Finally, note that this edition only gives you access to a total of 7 killers and 9 survivors, plus accessories.
dying light 2
In Dying Light 2: Stay Humanthe player finds himself in a zombie-infested world from which he must rely on the help of other survivors to get out of it. While the scenario plays a central role in this second episode, decisions have to be made regularly that can have serious consequences for the rest of the adventure. As usual in the Dying Light franchise, the title offers an open world and lets the player jump from roof to roof and massacre infected people thanks to the impressive physical abilities of his character. As you explore, you’ll also need to adapt your playstyle to the cycle of the day. Skills are another important part of the experience as they enhance one’s skills in parkour and combat.
The Dark Pictures: House of Ashes
As his name suggests The Dark Pictures: House of Ashes is the third game in the The Dark Picture Anthology series. This time the scenario takes place in 2003 in the middle of the Iraq war. While US special forces search for weapons of mass destruction, supernatural creatures awaken in the desert of Saudi Arabia. Just like in the other works, the player follows the adventures of a group of characters trying to survive. Because of this, every decision can have serious consequences, which requires a good management of everyone’s feelings to carry out the exploration phases.
Maid of Sker
Inspired by novels Houses of Sker, Maid of Sker is a first-person survival horror set in 1898 in Britain, in a remote and disturbing hotel. In this experience, where a large part of the gameplay focuses on sounds, we’ll follow the forays of Thomas Evans, a musician trying to save the woman he loves. So you have to be careful because every move can attract the attention of enemies. This sometimes requires you to hold your character’s breath or even avoid hitting the furniture to remain discreet. In all of this, your only weapon is some sort of bullet that creates a chant that can stun your pursuers. To make matters worse, you’re also being hunted by Abraham, a creepy AI-controlled being who can follow you wherever you go.
Martha is dead
Marta is dead is a first-person thriller developed by Wired Productions. In 1944, with the conflict between Germany and the Allies raging, the granddaughter of a German soldier found the body of a drowned woman in Tuscany. In a universe that mixes historical reality, superstition and folklore, the challenge is to uncover the consequences of this death. Be careful though, the warning at the start of the game pretty much sums up the overall vibe of the title: “Not recommended for players who may be bothered by artwork containing gore, dismemberment, disfigurement of human bodies, minor nudity, and self-damage “. Reserved for the informed public.
Resident Evil Village
because Resident Evil Village is the direct sequel to Resident Evil VII, it is better to have played the latter to understand all the challenges of this work. In this new terrifying adventure we find Ethan now living peacefully with his wife and daughter Rose. Unfortunately, some time later, while she is kidnapped for an unknown reason, Ethan wakes up completely lost in a strange village ruled by the horrible mother Miranda. As in the previous episode, there is first-person gameplay, but this time in slightly larger areas to explore. If Village is less scary than other titles in the Resident Evil franchise, it’s because it leaves room for gameplay that relies heavily on weaponry to help you overcome the well-stocked bestiary that awaits. What gives more interesting fights.
