After the first preview of Sony State of Play, the first day of the Summer Game Fest 2022 presentations finally took place yesterday, one of the biggest and most important events on the video game scene for this summer after downloading E3. As in previous years, this event presented us with a huge number of trailers and news at the world premiere, around both already introduced games and also some brand new surprises.
However, as Geoff Keighley himself made progress in his latest statements, yesterday’s event left us with somewhat vague impressions of what we all expected, with much less force than the previous issue. Although that doesn’t mean we had an event that lasted almost three hours on the first day.
With lots of videos and previews, many of which are limited to trailers in less than a minute, we wanted to take this opportunity to create a brief summary to highlight the most relevant announcements of the “world premiere”. from this excavation Summer Game Fest 2022:
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2
One of the big announcements of the evening was undoubtedly the introduction of a new trailer and the gameplay of the long-awaited restart of this shooter, which was officially announced a few days ago. And that’s because Activision is one of the parts that has most affected the gaming community and beyond, so she didn’t want to miss the opportunity to adapt this part to a new generation of consoles and computers, at least 13 years after its original release, using the engine of her latest part. Modern Warfare.
On the other hand, the video only focuses on a single-player campaign, and no footage of online multiplayer modes has been seen so far. Although the game is scheduled to launch on October 28, 2022, it is likely that we will see new details in the coming months, perhaps with some big announcement reserved for Gamescom 2022.
Street Fighter 6
By further expanding the latest advances and repeating this Summer Game Fest 2022, Capcom seems determined to try to make his next part of the fights as visible as possible. And it’s no small deal, with a game that not only looks spectacular on an aesthetic level, but also represents a big leap in franchising, innovating by adding a new online mode and at the same time delving into the history of its characters, with a cast of new and familiar faces to which a new confirmation is added, with the presence of another great classic: Guile.
Callisto protocol
After its little progress at the first Sony conference, this atmospheric shooter surprised us again with a new video that combines film scenes and gameplay virtually indistinguishable, and surprises with graphics that will surprise even the new generation.
Honkai: StarRail
One of the most anticipated announcements of Summer Game Fest 2022 was undoubtedly the announcement of HoYoverse, which in addition to a new demo for the recently introduced Zenless Zone Zero introduced a new game video of its next online multiplayer JRPG, based on futuristic environments and its distinctive oriental animation style. Take a look at some already confirmed settings and characters, as well as some new details.
Although the date of its release is unknown at the moment, this latest trailer leaves us with honey on our lips and marks its arrival “soon”.
Dark descent of aliens
Focus Interactive, which combines action, RPG, terror and madness, will surprise us with this “top-down shooter” set in the dark and atmospheric sci-fi world of the Alien saga. From xenomorphs to well-groomed people, this title will take us through an immersive story in which we will recruit new Marines to form the best platoon and equip them with new skills, weapons and armor.
Unfortunately, the trailer screened at the Summer Game Fest 2022 focused exclusively on the cinematic presentation, without yet showing any details or playability. And it’s because this game is a bit far in the calendar of upcoming releases, its arrival dates back to next year.
One Piece Odyssey
The well-known straw hat pirate and his crew repeat with a model of exploration, role-playing and action that is very similar to that of his last episode, and embark on a new original adventure, in which, of course, many people will not be missing. recognizable faces of manga. Balance the sails and get ready, because this ship will arrive at the port just this year.
Marvel Midnight Suns
Marvel disagrees with the usual action model of these superheroes and surprises us with this turn-based fighting game developed by Firaxis, the creators of great titles like XCOM and Civilization. In addition to expanding some details, such as the inclusion of heroes and villains such as Spider-Man, Venom and the Hulk, one of the big news was the announcement of his date, marking his arrival on October 7.
Gotham Knights
Warner and DC delighted us this time with a demonstration of the acrobatic skills of Nightwing, one of the optional heroes of this action, who will arrive on the console of the new generation and PC on October 25th.
Saints Row: Boss Factory
In an effort to raise higher expectations for the game, which will be released on August 23, the developers of Saints Row have just announced this free demo (currently available), with which we can access and try out their new character editor, which will offer us virtual endless customization.
Warhammer 40k Darktide
Finally, at first glance at its playability, the dark adaptation of the board game surprises us with a delivery very similar to Vermintide, with a huge number of hordes of enemies and a game system based on the cooperative mode, changing the previous fantasy settings. for this dystopian future full of demons and other creatures.
Layers of fear
Another of the big surprises of Summer Game Fest 2022. Horror lovers are lucky, because this psychedelic horror saga returns from a first-person perspective, focused on research and the most impressive storytelling. It all adapts to a new adventure created exclusively with the innovative Unreal Engine 5 technology, including some new features such as ray tracing, HDR and 4K resolution, and the use of the Lumen system, which offers a horror experience like never before. we have already seen.
Goat simulator 3
By turning the loop, it seems that the crazy adventures of this goat have no end. And just because it is one of the most absurd simulators ever created, it actually started as a purely satirical project, the popularity of this game and other simulators of this developer has a huge number of fans in the gaming community (including the editors of this website) who will be able to recreate the most absolute chaos with a new assortment of crazy accessories.
Remake The Last of Us Part 1
Unlike the original and previously released The Last of Us Remastered and very possibly influenced by the impending arrival of a TV series about this game set, Naughty Dog has re-updated this survival title to bring it to PS5 now, with completely restored graphics along with some important changes such as improved gameplay, combat system and enemy intelligence in the game.
Return Digital
Already a few days ago, another of the most relevant announcements of this inaugural Summer Game Fest 2022 was undoubtedly the event of this developer, who, in addition to a new short film packed with absurd humor for the company, released several samples of her upcoming games such as Cult of the Lamb, Anger. Foot, Card Shark, The Plucky Squire and Skate Story.
