Hellblade

Ninja Theory has worked with quite a few publishers over the years: Capcom, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Bandai Namco, and even Sony. Now, it's strಌiking out on its own with Hellblade, a game about a woman named Senua and her journey through the underworld. It's incredibly early in development, but if the game ends up half as b♌eautiful as its trailer, we're going to be in for a treat.
Blues and Bullets
Platform: Xbox One
Not much is known about this one, but it appears to be a noir-inspired action-adventure that takes place over a handful of episodes. I'm a sucker for a proper detective story, a🤪nd I'm really digging the black and white vibe.
Cuphead
Platform: Xbox One/PC
Cuphead looks amazing. Just look at that screenshot. Revel in its old-timey Walt Disney style. Marvel at its sidescrolling shooter action. 2015 ꩵcan't come fast enough.
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter

This one looks interesting. Funk of Titans is a sidescrolling platformer where you play as Perseus, the son of Ze💟us. You and your afro will run through several funkified stages and defeat a swath of Greek-mythology flavored enemies because video games.
