Although day after day it seems that not much is happening, the world of video games never stops and this week has been one of the most powerful at all levels, because finally, if we have to highlight a long-awaited news item that has been rumored to occupy many covers is Silent Hill. And during the event organized by Konami last week, it was not only clear that the saga was relaunching, but that it did so with up to 4 games. Of course, the biggest remake, Bloober Team’s Silent Hill 2, would be exclusive to PS5 for a year. And that’s just the tip of this weekly summary.
We start with what should never be missing, as always, our excellent offers with gold, which are dedicated to this well-known “Shocktober”, with a clear focus on horror games, so that you do not miss none this holiday season. Although if you have Xbox Game Pass they will surely not be missing, since the Amnesia saga, which had made an exclusive turn on PS4 for its last installment, Rebirth, is now available on the service with Soma, the other title of the studio. Here you can consult the complete list of incorporations for the second half of October.
2 great games are coming to Xbox Game Pass
We refer to A Plague Tale: Requiem and Persona 5 Royal. First Tuesday and Second Last Friday have made it into Xbox Game Pass and you can play them freely, but both may be the best to come to Xbox this year. Of course, the notes that were taken were great. If you want to know more about them, we recommend their analysis.
And we didn’t just experience Silent Hill this week, as its notoriety was stolen just two days later by the excellent Resident Evil 4 Remake, which showed gameplay and a new story trailer, leaving all fans and even fans in awe. who has not played the fourth opus. Mark March 2023 well, because we might have one of the GOTYs very soon. Of course, the showcase was not limited to that, and you can see everything featured in this summary, which appears in the weekly summary.
However, the controversy of Gotham Knights and its 30 fps erupted again this week, of course due to the release of the game itself, which had mixed opinions about it, but just as important. On our side, we no longer have any doubts. The game has its “things”, but it is very good. Great for DC fans, although a bit removed from the old Arkham. Here you can read my colleague Javier’s review.
And in this same vein, The Callisto Protocol, the horror title that will have to cross the mines posed by the best horror remakes of the moment, announces not only that it is already finished, but also that it will have a 60 fps mode, with some mockery included, all must be said.
The weekly summary doesn’t give much more of itself, otherwise it wouldn’t be called a summary. But if we can tell you before leaving that the war between the CMA, Microsoft and Sony for the takeover of Activision is still active, with the intervention of the American competition agency itself, they are canceling several players or with forced explanations from Microsoft, which COD would make continue until 2027 on PlayStation.
Finally, if you’re saving up for an Xbox Series X or S this Christmas, take a look at what our colleague Jose Ángel told us a few hours ago, pointing out that there could be price drops on the consoles during next Black Friday. See you in the next weekly summary, although we recommend that you do not miss anything during the week, because there could be news that makes your week happy.
