• Days Gone Looks Like Horizon Zero Dawn, Minus Dinosaurs

  13-06-2017 23:49
  
  From what I've seen at E3 2017, Days Gone looked a lot like another Sony exclusive from earlier in 2017, Horizon Zero Dawn. The main difference is that, instead of fighting off hordes of robot dinosaurs (which is new, and awesome!), you are fighting off hordes of zombies (which I've done before, a lot).
  In an extended demo at E3 2017, I saw the same mission you can watch below, but at night, and in the snow.
  It began with main character, Deacon, accepting a mission from an NPC at a home base. Fr

• The Sequel To The Oculus Rift Platformer Is Coming To Xbox One

  13-06-2017 23:41

The environments in the trailer are bright and cheery, and it looks like there will be many diverse locations to explore. Here's hoping that the move away from VR allows Playful to focus on refining the gameplay and incorporating more variety.
