September brings in a lot of good games, a lot of sports coupled with action-adventures. Here’s a list of 10 games to look forward to:
Recore: This offering from Microsoft was announced at E3 of 2015. The action-adventure game has been developed by Keiji Inafune’s Comcept and Armature Studio and it puts the players in the role of the last surviving humans on a planet devastated by robots. With the help of few friendly robotic pets, the humans must survive. From the looks of the trailer it seems like each pet has unique abilities to help out their fellow humans. Microsoft’s recent cross platform support on Xbox and Windows 10 might prove to be a good deal for Recore.
The game releases in North America on 13 September and in Europe on 16 September.
