Assassin’s Creed Origins

Assassin’s Creed Origins is the comeback title that the franchise needed and fans have been begging for. It also laid the perfect groundwork for the amazing adventure players are now experiencing with Odyssey.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider

You can read our full review of Shadow of the Tomb Raider right here, or check out a short blurb below:

“When the origins arc first began its journey back in 2013, fans of the iconic Lara Croft were invited on a journey based upon a merciless pace of evolution. For veterans of the franchise, we know Croft as this badass, confident adventurer that can take on any challenge. The rebooted series shows a much different journey, a metamorphosis from a young adult into a weathered survivor with a thirst for knowledge.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the thrilling conclusion to the trilogy and the final installment tells a gripping tale of duality, humanity, and immense growth. The stakes are much higher this time for Croft and her friend Jonah as the pair must face an onset apocalypse and what it means to be human in the face incredible tragedy.”

• Croft Edition – $67.49

Far Cry 5

Far Cry 5 puts players smack dab in the middle of a nowhere town in Montana and forces them to go toe-to-toe with an incredibly powerful cult. 

“Welcome to Hope County, Montana, land of the free and the brave but also home to a fanatical doomsday cult known as Eden’s Gate. Stand up to cult leader Joseph Seed, and his siblings, the Heralds, to spark the fires of resistance and liberate the besieged community”

Our own Robert Workman couldn’t contain his excitement for this game, saying, “While the idea of battling a cult may not sound like the best video game idea, Far Cry 5 wraps it into an experience that’s easily the best in the series to date. And that’s including Blood Dragonand its amazing laser dinosaurs. I mean, how do you beat laser dinosaurs? With an on-fire bear named Cheezburger, obviously.”
