A few weeks ago, Opening Night Live kicked off Gamescom 2022 in Cologne, Germany, and the event hosted by Geoff Keighley left a few games to follow. Although the games The Callisto Protocol, Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Island 2 or Lies of P received all the attention of the media, this time we want to talk about 5 interesting games announced at Gamescom 2022, which went unnoticed. However, we must not stop paying attention to them and we will follow them very closely, because they seem to have a long way to go.
New Tales from the Borderlands
The Borderlands universe continues to expand and does so with a new Tales from the Borderlands. This time it doesn't come under the Telltale label; Gearbox itself is responsible for this narrative adventure that will not be a sequel to the work starring Rhys and Fiona, but will put us in the shoes of a trio. The losers who have to face the Tediore side, that is. It will arrive on October 21.
Under the Waves
Edited by Quantic Dream and developed by Parallel Studio, Under the Waves is a narrative adventure that invites us to dive into the depths of an alternative North Sea, in a techno-futuristic version. In it, a man named Stan will have to deal with the pain caused by certain events in his life and fight to escape to the surface or be swallowed up forever by the waters. It has no set release date.
Moonbreaker
Brandon Sanderson's landing in the world of video games was one of the most anticipated events for fans of the fantasy writer. Moonbreaker isn't exactly what you'd expect from an industry first, but it's still worth paying attention to. From Unknown Worlds, the creators of Subnautica, it's a Warhammer-style turn-based strategy game in which we have to paint our figures. It will arrive on Steam in September, although we do not rule out that it will also be made on consoles in the future.
Where Winds Meet
This game is an open-world RPG with action-adventure touches that presents Chinese mythology in an honest and respectful way. Visual comparisons to Ghost of Tsushima haven't been made for a long time. And Where Winds Meet seems to drink a lot from Sucker Punch's work, but it also feels like it's going to be much more focused on straight, fast action. Currently in development for PC.
Blacktail
Blacktail is new, as he proposes to put himself in the role of the villain. In this fantasy RPG you play as a 16-year-old girl accused of witchcraft and banished from her medieval Slavic village. It will be our own decision to become protectors and guardians of the forests and their creatures or the terror of the villagers with whom we once shared a home and now reject us. Coming to Xbox and other platforms in December.
