Game Releases

Destiny 2 (Xbox, PS4, PC)

Destiny 2 is finally here. It’s been one of the most anticipated titles of the year and fans of the original game are excited. Early access betas have been running since mid-July and the hype-train has been full steam ahead ever since. The game’s story mode is said to be longer and more intricate than Destiny’s and the world is supposedly substantially larger.

Like many sequels, Destiny 2 hasn’t been built from the ground up. It’s an evolution of it’s predecessor rather than a something new. The skeleton remains the same, with big changes coming to things like subclasses, weapons classes and overall combat. 

Knack 2 (PS4)

Knack was an OG PS4 game. It was a launch title and one of the first games to be shown off on the new console. Now its sequel is here and ready to pick of where its predecessor left off. Knack II follows Knack once again as he shrinks and grows as needed to fight off all sorts of villains. The game is cartoon-y and childish, but promises difficulties suitable for all levels of play. 

Lego World (PC, PS4, Xbox, Switch)

Lego Worlds launched earlier this year for most platforms, but its debut on the Switch was put off until this week. The game is sandbox style and has a very Minecraft-esque feel to it. If you’re familiar with Legos and the concept of a sandbox game, Lego Worlds likely won’t come as much of a surprise to you. The best part is, you never have to worry about stepping on this game in the dark and experiencing the sharp pain only a surprise Lego brick can deliver. 

Just Dance 2018 (Wii U, PS3, PS4, Switch, Xbox 360, Xbox One)

If you’re still rocking a last-gen console for some reason, then you probably don’t have many opportunities to get your hands on a new game. This week though, you’re in luck. Just Dance 2018 is now available on every current and last gen console out there.

It’s time to dust off your Wii U, 360 or PS3 and get dancing. Or, and this is just a suggestion, you could upgrade to a new system and get any other game that’s come out in the last four years.
