Similar to previous games, Final Fantasy XV features thrilling, action-based combat that allows you to channel the power of your ancestors as you hack and slash your way through throngs of enemies with your companions by your side. There are also magic and team-based attacks that you can employ in your battles.The game has a rather differnent feel and tone to it this time around, but it still retains the epic-ness that makes it a worthy sequel in the Final Fantasy franchise. The game is currently available on consoles, but for PC gamers, you might still need to wait a while before you can get it on Steam.
God of War
God of War is a Playstation-exclusive game that casts you into the shoes of Kratos once again. However, this time, after taking his vengeance against the Gods of Olympus, he was given a second chance at fatherhood and that can be quite a tall task especially when the world has gradually become even harsher and unforgiving. With his son Atreus by his side, Kratos will need to teach the young boy all that he will need to know to survive while controlling the rage that had the better of him more times than he could count in the past. Like the previous, this game has a massive and gorgeous open world for you to explore and a thrillingly-visceral close-quarter combat system to do battle with. It features a ton of familiar and new Nordic creatures, some of which are mythical and legendary; and a rewarding progression system which will see the skills of both Kratos and Atreus increase noticeably over time.God of War ensures its players a gritty and grueling, yet somewhat heartwarming gaming experience where you'll get to not only mentor a young boy in the intricate art of war, but also to help Kratos rediscover his fatherly side through the game's powerful storyline. This PS4 game is slated to be released early 2018.
