Halo Infinite
Genre: Shooter|Platform: Xbox One, Xbox Series X, PC|Release: End of 2020
This is Halo: Infinite: The Master Chief is returning. Halo has been one of the most important franchises for Xbox for years. The new installment will continue the story from Halo 5: Guardians.
Otherwise, it has been quite silent around the long-awaited new part of the series so far. However, the trailer from E3 2019 gives a first glimpse into the game:
Godfall
Genre: Action RPG|Platform: PS4, PS5, PC|Release: End of 2020
This is Godfall: Godfall was first announced at the 2019 Video Game Awards. It is officially referred to as a “looter-slasher”, which implies a classic loot shooter with melee weapons?
The official website godfall.com suggests this. The game is supposed to focus on melee combat, as well as corresponding weapons and equipment. Additionally, you can choose to play alone or in two- or three-player co-op.
WoW: Shadowlands
Genre: MMORPG|Platform: Mac, PC|Release: 2020
This is WoW: Shadowlands: Shadowlands will be the next major expansion for World of Warcraft and continues the story after the end of the Old God N’Zoth. The expansion will bring five new areas at first, four of which are intended for the leveling phase.
Another area is expected to be available for players at the maximum level. Moreover, other features such as covenants, the Tower of the Damned Torghast, and new character customization options will come to the game.
Pokémon Sword & Shield: Expansion Pass
Genre: Adventure|Platform: Nintendo Switch|Release: June & Autumn 2020
This is the Expansion Pass: If you’ve already completed your adventure in Pokémon Shield & Sword, you can still enjoy Pokémon collecting. But in June, there will be an addition – and unlike usual, it will not come in the form of another edition, but rather through an expansion pass.
The pass comes in two parts, one in June and one in autumn. It complements the main game with two new areas, as well as new Pokémon, legendary monsters, more items, and new multiplayer features.
Iron Man VR
Genre: VR Adventure|Platform: PS4|Release: 15.05.2020
This is Iron Man VR: While you can take on the entire team in the Avengers, the titular Iron Man is the main character of this PS VR game. Similar to Half-Life: Alyx, it is expected to fully utilize the capabilities of the headset – and could thus be quite exciting.
It will be possible to fly using repulsors and use Iron Man’s weapons – with motion controls. The story puts you directly into Tony Stark, who has to contend with the mysterious Ghost.
Perhaps the most exciting MMO for 2020 awaits you on the next page.
