INFO : Dragon Age: Inquisition is an upcoming action role-playing video game developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts.It is a sequel to Dragon Age: Originsand Dragon Age II, making it the third major game in the Dragon Age franchise.


BioWare is planning on fusing elements of both earlier games in the series, Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II, into the creation of Dragon Age: Inquisition.The game will feature larger environments with much more opportunity for exploration.

BioWare has confirmed that multiple playable races are returning, both female and male. Players can play as a Human, Dwarf, or Elf just like in Dragon Age: Origins. Additionally, Qunari are also playable.

However, combat is expected to differ somewhat from its predecessors and focus more on a player's ability to prepare, position, and form a cohesive team with his or her party members,requiring fewer repetitive finger strikes but better thinking. Tactical view also returns for all five platforms in DAI, whereas before it was exclusive to PC in Dragon Age: Origins, then was removed inDragon Age II.

INFO : Dying Light is an upcoming first-person survival horror video game developed by Techland to be released on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows.


GAMEPLAY: Dying Light is a zombie apocalypse-themed game set in an open world similar to South American slums and cities. During the day, players traverse an expansive urban environment overrun by a vicious outbreak, scavenging the world for supplies and crafting weapons to defend against the growing infected population with a heavy focus on freerunning mechanics. Players also can customize the four characters in the game.

Dying Light contains a dynamic day and night cycle. During the day, the player has to go out and scavenge for supplies to send back to the safe zones. They can also set up traps, save random survivors, and make their way to airdrops. The infected are slow, allowing the player to simply make their way past them, but their danger grows in numbers. Luckily, the player could stay up on roofs of buildings to stay out of harm's way.

Four player online multi-player has been announced along with the confirmation that there will be no split-screen cooperative function according to the developer's twitter page. It has also been confirmed that there will be a pre-order exclusive gamemode that will allow the player to play as a zombie and join other players' worlds.

When the sun goes down in Dying Light, the infected transform into something much more dangerous. They gain the ability to sprint after the player, and have increased damage, as well as the ability to jump and climb buildings like the player. In order for the player to avoid contact, they need to use their Night Sense to locate zombies in the dark to stay out of their way. If spotted and trying to escape their pursuers, the player can use distractions and traps to lower their numbers. Players can use sound to lure the zombies by screaming into their headsets or by the sound being heard on Ps4's/Xbox One's microphone in the camera.But when the night comes, so does theNight Hunter or "Volatile", which is a rare special type of infected that only comes out at night. If spotted by this infected, escape is almost impossible. In order to escape them, the player will need to use tactics, distractions, and their Night Sense to survive until the morning's first light.

Two other types of infected include the Toad, a bloated zombie that spits acid at the player, and a large, strong zombie, that is similar to the Left 4 Dead series's "Tank" and Dead Island's "Ram".

INFO : Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (Japanese: メタルギアソリッドVグラウンドゼロズHepburn: Metaru Gia Soriddo Faibu Guraundo Zerozu?) is an upcoming action-adventure stealth video game developed by Kojima Productions and produced byKonami. It is part of a sub-series of prequels in the Metal Gear series, taking place after Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Ground Zeroes will stand alone as the first part to Metal Gear Solid V, acting as the prologue for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

GAMEPLAY : As in Peace Walker, Ground Zeroes will offer a base-building feature that allows players to develop weapons and items from their virtual motherbase. The player is also given the ability to access the motherbase from their real-life smartphones. Series director Hideo Kojima revealed that the game has a new day and night cycle that runs in real-time, and that "depending on how you travel between one stage to the next, the travel time will affect the time of day when you arrive at your destination".A new gameplay direction will allow the player to choose in what order the story events take place by selecting missions in any order they like, and yet still "understand the encompassing message by the end".

Kojima has spoken about the restrictive nature of previous Metal Gear titles, saying that they "set [the player] on one rail to get from point A to point B, with a certain amount of freedom between". In stark contrast, Kojima's team will instead offer the player new ways of traversal and sneaking methods, such as taking a plane, helicopter or motorcycle to the mission area. This is in order for Kojima to accomplish a "true open world experience" with Ground Zeroes.
