Serimo: Shadows Die Twice

This World Premiere of the game from FromSoftware and Activision shows quite dynamic combat phases, close to what can be seen in a musou with bosses, sword attacks. The game seems quite nervous

 

Fallout 76

Then comes Todd from Bethesda, he recalls that it has been since Morrowind that Bethesda has strong relationships with Xbox. We come to Fallout 76: it will be 4 times the size of Fallout 4. It will be very different from what we have known so far. With its country soundtrack, the game touts the great prairies and a safe world.
