Contrast Coming To X1

The rather enjoyable Contrast is coming to Xbox One tomorrow.

Alright alright alright… Contrast is coming to Xbox One on Thursday 26 June! Ie, in two days. How exciting!

Featuring a striking art style and a cool noire vibe, I’m secretly hoping this is one of the free games for Gold members this month.

The achievement list is also pretty straight forward if you are that way inclined 😉

Oddworld New ‘n’ Tasty Is Coming To Xbox One

Oddworld creator Lorne Lanning has confirmed that Abe is coming to Xbox One later this year.

Lorne said that once the PlayStation versions of New ‘n’ Tasty are done, Oddworld Inhabitants will focus on the Steam version, then the Xbox One and Wii U versions.

“We’ve had some talks and I think we’re past it. We’re past it in a positive way. As soon as we get our obligations on the PS platforms out, our intention is to get rolling on the Xbox platform and really treat it with the same level of care,” he said. “We don’t have a release date, but we know it’ll be before the end of the year.”

Does this mean that Microsoft have changed their parity clause. If so then expect more indie games to be released on the X1.

Batman: Arkham Knight Slips To 2015

Batman: Arkham Knight will sadly not be released this October 😦 Another title has been pushed back to 2015.

To soften the blow Rocksteady have released a new little teaser trailer to the Batmobile. Still very disappointed. This was going to be my Christmas present.
I do hate it when this happens. Why can’t the developers announce a release when they know the game is ready and not just wing it (That was a bat pun). Too much of this is happening. It also looks like there is going to be a ton of game next year. Not much this year though.

Wolfenstein: New Order Pushed Forward

You dont see this often. Wolfenstein: The New Order has been bought forward to May 20th.

Menaing that MachineGames’ Nazi-blasting FPS will now have a  worldwide release on PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One, across Europe, North America and Austrailia.

Pre-orders for the game will be rewarded with a beta key for Doom 4
