November marks the arrival of the next generation of console gaming, the Xbox One and the PS4, and with a huge list of brand new titles to get stuck into – including the mighty Call Of Duty: Ghosts and Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. After a previous month full of title delay news, let’s see what’s left!
Call Of Duty: Ghosts
Release Date: 5th November 2013
Platforms: Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii U
Before it makes it’s big Xbox One debut on November 15th, fans of the Call Of Duty series will have a brand new game to “pwn noobs” and hurl racial abuse at strangers on when Call Of Duty: Ghosts launches on November 5th for the current gen and PS4. Super fans can catch all the action from a POV perspective with the Call Of Duty: Ghosts Prestige Edition which comes with a 1080p HD tactical camera! Pretty nifty!
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes
Release Date: 15th November 2013
Platforms: PS3, PC, DS, 3DS, Wii U, Vita
There’s only a few more days left until LEGO and comic book fans alike get to see their favourite Marvel characters get the LEGO video game treatment with the release of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes. Earning itself our Editor’s Choice Award at this year’s Eurogamer Expo, this game is an absolute must-buy, especially for gamers who love a bit of couch co-op!
Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
Release Date: 22nd November 2013
Platforms: PC, Wii U, PS4, Xbox One
Following the news that the hugely anticipated Watch Dogs has been delayed until early 2014, Ubisoft are still coming into the next gen swinging with the release of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag. Whilst Assassin’s Creed III was fairly heavily criticised by the gaming community, initial previews of the latest game appear to be pointing to a breath of new life into the established franchise.
Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
Release Date: 22nd November 2013
Platforms: 3DS
It’s a ruddy new Zelda game! Whilst Sony and Xbox are off swinging their massive next gen console genitalia about, Nintendo are flicking the v’s by releasing a new handheld Zelda game that follows on from the story of the 1992 Super NES instalment, telling a new story in the kingdom of Hyrule. Make sure you play this in front of your Wii U just to remind it who the real next gen Nintendo console is.
Tearaway
Release Date: 22nd November 2013
Platforms: Vita
Even more awesome handheld gaming fun and another of our Eurogamer Expo award winners, Tearaway, is arriving this month exclusively on the PS Vita. From the gang who brought the world LittleBigPlanet, Tearaway is set to offer some superb handheld puzzling fun in yet another unique and vibrant universe. I wonder if you can set everything on fire…
Super Mario 3D World
Release Date: 29th November 2013
Platforms: Wii U
Not wanting to be forgotten as the gaming community immerses itself in a plethora of next gen shooters, Nintendo are wheeling out their moustachioed mascot for a new game on last year’s unused Xmas present – the Wii U. If that’s not enough to sell you on the idea, Super Mario 3D World introduces a new Cat Mario power-up. Because everybody loves cats! Right?
