E3 2018: Square Enix Recap - Tomb Raider, Just Cause 4, Monster Hunter

4.3
Eidos Montreal’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider received a brief new trailer which showcased the game’s explosive beginning. The developer then offered more details on some of Lara’s survival techniques, namely “Becoming one with the jungle”.

Along with shooting poison arrows and hoisting enemies up with rope arrows a la Batman, Lara can still execute stealth kills (and even multi stealth kills). One interesting mechanic is her ability to blend in with surroundings, adding an interesting guerrilla warfare twist to her tactics. You can also take less than subtle approaches like tossing explosive canisters to murder enemies.

Square Enix revealed that Final Fantasy XIV will have a crossover event with Monster Hunter: World today during its 2018 Electronic Entertainment Expo event in Los Angeles.

Final Fantasy XIV is available on PlayStation 4 and PC. The massively multiplayer online role-playing game has had over 6 six million total players. Monster Hunter: World has been a huge success since launching on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in January.

This crossover event could help fans of both games migrate to the other.

Final Fantasy XIV launched in 2010, but players and critics lamented its lack of content and poor gameplay. Square Enix remade the game and re-released it as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, which received a much warmer reception. It has had two expansions since: Heavensward and Stormblood.

After yesterday’s reveal at the Microsoft E3 2018 Press Conference, everyone was expecting more news on developer Avalanche Studios’ Just Cause 4. Thankfully, Square Enix did not disappoint at their E3 showcase, highlighting a ton of new details in both story and gameplay sections.

Some of the changes include improved AI that will keep the player guessing. On top of that, there is unparalleled draw distance according to the movie-announcer soundalike in the trailer.

Other improvements include improved weather effects, with tornadoes and lightning taking center stage in the gameplay showcase.

The road to E3 was a weird one for developer Avalanche Studios, given that Just Cause 4 was leaked nearly a week ahead. Specifically, the game showed up on Steam well before it was confirmed, mostly with just a promotional image. The game was later confirmed at Microsoft’s E3 Press Conference with a new trailer and a behind the scenes video.

Just Cause 4 will release on December 4, 2018 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
