2018 was an exceptional year for the gaming community with amazing content being released almost every month from triple AAA titles all the way to the new game developers. With all the content that was created from the gaming community last year, we thought it would be a great idea to make a list of the best games to play from 2019.
Disclaimer: This is In no specific order.
Number 1: Mortal Kombat 11: Released 23rd of April 2019
GET OVER HERE! MK11 is the new instalment of the frankhise from the very talented kompany NetherRealm Studios. This game is an absolute treat to play, NRS talent knows no bounds, with there super realistik graphiks giving the playable kharakters in the game an amazing new look. Furthermore, MK11 as a whole, is an astonishing game with everything from the krypt, tower of time and kreation menu all getting a graphikal make over.
Do not worry, MK veterans. MK11 still stikks to it's roots with it's brilliantly kreative fatality's, brutality's and fatal blows all koming with kreative new and old ways to injure, maim and kill your opponent. Furthermore, MK11's kombat system has also had a work over. MK11 khooses to play the kombat system more slowly; fokusing more on foot work and x-ray's to win you the viktory rather than MK X's more faster approakh to the kombat system.
MK11 has gone through some beautiful khanges from its predekessor and we highly rekommend you try out NRS game for yourself bekause there hard work and dedikation really shows in there new instalment to the Mortal Kombat frankhise.
Number 2: Resident Evil 2: Released 25th of January 2019
The Resident Evil 2 Remake is based on the original Resident Evil 2 that was a gaming phenomenon when it was released back in 1998. Thus, Capcom has come back 21 years later with a remake that will give the resident evil fans what they love and the new comers to the franchise a recreation of what they missed.
RE2 is still based in Raccoon city with the same characters, Claire Redfield and Leon Kennedy as you play through their individual stories. Claire looking for her brother; Chris finds out that he has left the city and instead discovers a young girl named Sherry Birkin. Leon; however, looking for survivors encounters Ada wong.
Firstly, Let's start by saying that Capcom did a brilliant job with the graphics in this remake, from the painstaking attention to detail with the character models and the surrounding environment to the way no two zombies feel alike; the design looks amazing and really add's to the horror-survival feeling the RE is known for. Secondly, RE2 runs on the same engine as Resident Evil 7 and ditches the old tank controls of the last game; instead focusing on over-the-shoulder gameplay. Meaning, there is no longer a first person mode in the RE2 remake which to some is an annoyance but the game still plays almost as well as it did in the previous RE2 game. RE2 remake still sticks to it's previous iteration with the player having to solve puzzles, shoot zombies and escape there way out of raccoon city whilst being slowly prayed upon by MR-X.
Finally, if your a new comer to the Resident Evil franchise and would like a new game to start, RE2 remake is a good place to start, from getting the basic feel of the RE games but also a bit of lore and back story on the way before you slowly get addicted and play the hole franchise.
Number 3: Doom Eternal: Released 22nd of November 2019
Doom Eternal Trailer:
Doom Eternal looks like it's going to be another great iteration from the doom franchise; still following the same concept of the previous games in forcing the player to aggressive engage enemies in close quarters combat to acquire the necessary tools to complete their task; which is most likely, saving humanity.
Doom Eternal is going to be a direct sequel to the 2016 Doom game. The player will controls the Doom slayer as he returns once more to combat the forces of hell that have turned earth into a hellish nightmare; guns like the BFG-9000, combat shotgun, chain-gun; arm blade and super shotgun (just to name a few) are all under the Doom slayer arsenal, Doom eternal looks like it's going to be a fun, action-pact, mastery of a game.
Number 4: Borderlands 3: Released 13th of September 2019
Borderlands 3 trailer
Borderlands 3 will be the forth main instalment of the borderlands franchise and from the trailers and all that we have read it looks like we are in for a treat.
Borderlands 3 will still have that amazing, graphical, art style we have seen in the previous games and a lot of brand new game enhancements from new game mechanics, four new playable vault hunters; Moze (Gunner), Zane (Operative), Amara (Siren) and FL4K (Beast Master); over 1 billions guns in borderlands 3 to find, obtain and use on the appropriately named "children of the vault." Furthermore, new mechanics such as: character's have more than one unique skill and instead three that can be unlocked and then equipped, new slide mechanic that can be used in tactical situations and the new loot generated on a per-player basis; meaning each player will gain the same loot, generated differently to their skill level.
With all these newly added features and more how could you resist not playing Borderlands 3?
Number 5: A Plague Tale: Innocence: Released 14th of May 2019
Emotional storytelling, stealth and horror all rolled in with compelling gameplay mechanics, tough game decisions and beautiful graphics; what your left with is an amazing single-player experience that will leave the player in awe at the end of the game.
In A Plague Tale: The player assumes control of a young female named Amicia De Rune in the third person perspective; based in the 14th Century when the plague was at it's height ravaging through Europe. While, she is accompanied by her younger brother Hugo who is being targeted by the inquisition due, to a paranormal being that festers inside of him.
A Plague Tale is a nice refresher from the current games on the market and is highly suggested if you'd like an experience that's scary, hard and emotional all at the same time.
