Summer is here, and with it, another Summer Game Fest. As he does, Geoff Keighley came to the annual showcase with big reveals for future games. And as we’ve done before, we’ve assembled a list of our personal favorites and ones that have us intrigued for what they might have to offer. Read ours, then let us know your faves in the comments below. Resident Evil: Veronica Kicking off Summer Game Fest was none other than Resident Evil: Veronica. A remake of the 2000 Dreamcast game, this new version will take players through a reimagined version of the original that plays similar to its more recent entries. What new changes await Claire Redfield during her solo journey through Paris and eventually Rockfort Island? We’ll find out when this remake hits PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X|S in 2027. Alien: Isolation 2 It wasn’t that long that Creative Assembly offered up a first look at Alien: Isolation 2. But the studio had something more substantial here, revealing a first look at an isolated colony on an equally isolated planet that’s about to have itself a pretty bad Xenomorph problem. No solid date on this yet, but when it does arrive, it’ll be on consoles and PC.
Gen Atlas From game director Fumito Ueda, best known for Ico and The Guardian, comes Gen Atlas. Formerly known as Project Robot, the third-person title puts players in the shoes of an unnamed robot in a post-apocalyptic setting. What do they pilot? A pretty damn big mech, which gradually reveals itself throughout the trailer. It’s not in the best of shape, so players will have to take care of it while traversing through the world, fighting aliens, and a mech of equally big stature. The scale of it all looks pretty incredible, and we can’t wait for it to hit whatever systems it does in the years to come.
