Everything announced at Summer Game Fest 2023

rockpapershotgun.com:

Tonight's Summer Game Fest was absolutely stacked with new game announcements and shiny new trailers, so in case you missed it or you just want to recap the biggest reveals from the show, we've gathered them all here below for your viewing pleasure. Here's everything that was announced at the 2023 Summer Game Fest.

Sorry, Sands Of Time Remake, you're old news now. The first announcement of Summer Game Fest was a brand-new Prince Of Persia game from Ubisoft Montpellier, the studio best known for Ubi's Rayman games. Whisper it, but I've actually already played a bit of this, and you'll be able to read more of my impressions on Monday, after Ubisoft's own Forward showcase. But for now, here are the basic facts: it's a 2.5D action platfomer, and it's coming out January 18th 2024.

In a, quote, "literally insane" trailer, we got our first proper look at Mortal Kombat 1, the latest MK fighting game that is definitely not just the first one again (it's set in a new reality, according to creator Ed Boon, hence the 1). We saw skulls crushed, rib cages crushed, icicles stabbed into people's heads, guts ripped out, plus loads more of its classic fatalities. There were lots of returning faces from the trad MK cast, too, but let's face it, all I really wanted to hear from this new trailer was a gravely "GET OVER HEREEEEE!" and we got it. I am pleased. It's coming out in September.

Watch out Diablo 4, Path Of Exile 2 is coming to take your clicking RPG crown. In this new gameplay trailer, we see a lighting sorcerer zap lots of fantasy baddies in a dark, moody forest, but alas, all we got was a mere 30 seconds of it before being told that more info is coming on July 28th. Stay tuned for more info next month, I guess.
