October 2017 Video Game Releases
(Week Two: Oct. 8-14)
Week two is equally light on the number of releases, which is good since there are some good titles to jump into on the PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. Middle-Earth: Shadow of War is the highly-anticipated follow-up to one of 2014’s best games. Talion returns with all of his deadly combos and the ability to make even more use of the Orc armies he’s fighting against. A deeper nemesis system, base-building, and a much more densely packed world await players looking to revisit the world of the Lord of the Rings.
The Evil Within 2 fittingly launches on Friday the 13th, bringing survival horror to the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. If you were a fan of the first game, Tango Gameworks has dialed up the insanity of this mind-bending horror experience. Oh, and Switch owners aren’t left out of the game releases, with Fire Emblem Warriors launching this week as well. It combines the non-stop hack n’ slash action of the Warriors games with elements of the critically-acclaimed tactical RPG series.
