Each level is packed with various new abilities and upgrades while the hack-n-slash based combat brings out the baddest ninja in you.
Wolfenstein: The New Order

The great thing about this game is the fact that the incredible looks and musical direction are not just for show. Every single detail complements its gameplay and narrative sensibilities perfectly. It is a rare thing in today's gaming world to see a product so thoroughly dedicated and devoted to a cohesive and singular vision, and the fact that the final product executes so well in every single aspect that supports that vision makes Child of Light a truly unique and special combination of RPG mechanics and platforming.
Watch Dogs
Watch Dogs is an open-world game like you've never seen before, brilliantly merging everything you love about the genre into one single game. You have the ability to basically hack the world, block cars by raising street pylons, knock the power out in order to escape enemies, and do whatever you want to in order to reach your goal.

The world is full of various possibilities and things to do from competing in street races, stopping crimes in progress, and hunting down criminals to engaging vigilante justice. One of the most impressive game's features (besides the incredible visuals) is the multiplayer.
Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag
Many of us weren't sure what to think when we heard the news that the new sequel to the Assassin's Creed franchise would be taking an unexpected turn to the high seas, featuring and adventure filled with pirates. What nobody expected was that Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag would possibly become the best Assassin's Creed yet. The game kept the incredible land combat while adding some of the most interesting and beautiful outdoor locations ever seen in the series. Believe it or not, the strongest feature of this game is the open ocean. Raiding enemy ships, sailing through a huge storm and hunting whales for various materials will remind players just how mediocre Assassin's Creed 3 really was. The ship battles will have you blasting your enemies away happily, fully utilizing the refinements implemented to the ship combat system. The boarding vessels part of the game remains a constant source of entertainment throughout the game.
