Monster Hunter Rise

Monster Hunter Rise , the latest chapter of the Capcom saga, has kidnapped the hearts of fans!

Outriders

Developed by People Can Fly and published by Square Enix, Outriders is a more than excellent title for third person shooter lovers with RPG elements. The gameplay of the game is a cross between Gears of War and The Division; so if you loved the two sagas, the People Can Fly title will not disappoint you. Starting from Earth as colonizers, the new planet will prove to be a trap for humans. Nevertheless, the protagonist and other characters will be able to use the powers of the alien Anomaly to their advantage.
