Switch It Up
At E3 2017, Nintendo teased a new Pokemon game for the Switch. Instead of the rumored Pokemon Stars, which was thought to be an enhanced version of the 3DS games Sun and Moon, Game Freak's untitled Switch Pokemon game is a new, "core RPG." We know very little about the game, so we started dreaming up all the things that could make a Switch-exclusive Pokemon game extra special. 2016's Sun and Moon--and last year's updated versions, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon--added a few of the quality-of-life features that will most likely return in the next Pokemon game. New and improved tools for high-level training, like being able to see a Pokemon's IVs at a glance, were a boon for competitive players, as was the reintroduction of Move Tutors in the Ultras. Alola also saw the introduction of regional variants of existing Pokemon, which is probably here to stay as well. So what's left to improve? We had quite a few ideas. Click forward to see nine things we want to see from Pokemon on Switch, and let us know in the comments what else you're hoping to see!
Way Less Hand-Holding
Recent Pokemon games have been regarded as, well, a bit easy. Pokemon is for everyone, but that doesn't mean the games should painstakingly explain the basics of catching and training Pokemon for the first two hours, either. Learning how to play Pokemon is easy, but mastering it is hard, and that's a big part of why it's so rewarding to build a successful team--so the next Pokemon game should actually make that a challenge again.
A Bigger, Better World To Explore
Gen 2 (Gold, Silver, and Crystal) is the best Pokemon generation of all time, in part because you got to take on all of Kanto after conquering Johto. It was like having a bonus Pokemon game after you finished your Pokemon game. That same principle could extend to Pokemon on Switch--with more power than the 3DS, the world could be so much bigger and more alive. And what's Pokemon without the adventure part?
More RPG Elements
Pokemon has the stats and complex party-building mechanics present in a lot of RPGs, but it could go even further. There are already trainer classes, like Youngsters and Fishermen, so why not make them work more like traditional RPG classes? Imagine choosing the Breeder class and getting Egg-hatching bonuses or becoming an Ace Trainer so you can be more of a jack of all trades.
Add an MMO-Style Online Component
Pokemon has mainly been the domain of handhelds, and although the Switch is portable, it's also a proper home console (with the promise of an online service). So if the Switch Pokemon game has a bigger, better world and a few more RPG-style details, it's not a stretch to hope for even more of a living RPG world when you connect online. There would probably be parental controls and safety limitations, since this is Nintendo, but if Game Freak brought back Secret Bases and made online connectivity a little more immediate, we would be pretty stoked.
Bring Back Ride Pokemon
The death of HMs was one of Sun and Moon's greatest gifts to Pokemon, which means Ride Pokemon shouldn't go away any time soon. You should never again keep a Linoone (a very good HM Pokemon, for the record) or anything else you don't really want to train in your party just because it can move boulders for you.
Your Pokemon Should Follow You, Dang It
This is probably the most frequently requested Pokemon feature ever. It hasn't been a thing since HeartGold and SoulSilver, and assuming the 3D (and graphics in general) would be a lot better on Switch, walking Pokemon would be a great way to show that off. Imagine a Rowlet hopping around or a Growlithe digging at the dirt when you stand in one place too long!
Improve the Post-Game
This goes hand-in-hand with a few other things on our wishlist, but seriously--in Sun and Moon, there really wasn't much to do after beating the game unless you play the competitive meta or want to catch lots of legendaries. Adding a significant late-game area to explore, bringing back Pokemon Contests, and adding mini-games would all go a long way toward improving the post-game experience for all kinds of players. Also, Pokemon on Switch should definitely bring back the ability to call trainers you've battled for a rematch at any time.
Pokemon Bank Compatibility
This is a no-brainer. Pokemon on Switch has to work with Pokemon Bank, since there wouldn't be any other way to trade up the Pokemon from your previous games. Plus, bringing your favorite Pokemon onto the Switch could be a lot like when you uploaded your Pokemon from Red and Blue into Pokemon Stadium--there's your favorite Charizard, but on a bigger screen.
Pokemon Amie/Refresh With the Joy-Cons
Pokemon Amie (from ORAS) and Refresh (from Sun and Moon) are both very charming, simple additions that make anyone who wants to use them feel closer to their Pokemon. A version on Switch could incorporate either the touchscreen or the Joy-Cons if that's your jam, and it would be ridiculously cute.

Movies and TV shows often miss their mark when it comes to predicting the future. We still don't have flying cars or time traveling devices, for instance. Having said that, there are several visionary films like Minority Report and 2001: A Space Odyssey that have managed to predict some aspects of technological innovation correctly. You could assert that many of these revolutionary films and TV shows had a direct influence in turning science fiction into science fact. Regardless, from predicting VR to self-driving cars, here are movies and TV shows that were ahead of their time. We've ordered them chronologically in the following gallery.
1. Space Travel - A Trip to the Moon (1902)
Not only did writer and director Georges Méliès depict us traveling into space all the way back in 1902, but his black and white film showcased humans traveling to the moon. In the silent short, explorers get blasted into space via a cannon-propelled capsule and return to Earth by dropping into the sea. Sound familiar? Humans wouldn't fly into space until 1961, however, when Russian Lt. Yuri Gagarin became the first person to orbit the Earth. And it wouldn't be until 1969 when Neil Armstrong would first set foot on the moon.
2. Robots - The Grim Game (1919)
The first robot made its debut on film before the term "robot" was even coined. In the Harry Houdini black-and-white silent film The Grim Game, we see a humanoid-looking "automaton" named Q. We've since had numerous robots throughout history, but one relatively recent one that caught the attention of many is Sophia. The human-looking robot was developed by Hong-Kong company Hanson Robotics. She was activated in 2015 and is capable of speech coupled with 62 different facial expressions. The Saudi Arabian government thought she was so lifelike that they made her an honorary citizen in 2017.
3. Robot Vacuum - The Jetsons (1962)
Considering we have smart lights and speakers, The Jetsons was really ahead of its time with the concept of a smart home. The futuristic Hanna-Barbera cartoon portrayed machines that could produce meals with the press of a button and briefcases that could transform into flying cars. While we still don't have those technologies, it did accurately predict the advent of little robot vacuums. Now we have roaming Roombas that keep our floors clean and startle our cats.
4. Smart Watch - The Jetsons (1962)
Roombas weren't the only invention The Jetsons accurately predicted. The cartoon also conveyed a smartwatch that allowed you to watch videos on your wrist. Apple would release its Apple Watch 53 years later in 2015. Now we have a plethora of smart watches from companies like Google, Samsung, and more.
5. Video Chatting - The Jetsons (1962)
Before there was Skype, The Jetsons depicted video chatting in 1962. Skype would help popularize video conferencing when it came out in 2003. Now we have numerous video applications including Slack, Google Hangouts, and more.
6. Cell Phones - Star Trek: The Original Series (1966)
Spoiler warning: Like The Jetsons, Star Trek predicted several technological innovations. One of the most notable ones involves the hand-held Communicator, which allowed Captain James T. Kirk and crew to call the USS Enterprise whenever they explored alien planets on foot. Motorola would later experiment with wireless calls in the early 1970s, but cell phones wouldn't hit the consumer market until 1983.
7. Electronic Translators - Star Trek: The Original Series (1966)
To communicate with aliens throughout the galaxy, Star Trek crew members used a universal translator, which had hundreds of languages programmed into a device that did real-time language translations. While we still don't have something quite as robust, Google did launch Google Translate in 2006. Coupled with smartphones, the translating app offered voice support in 2010. In 2017, Google released its Pixel Buds. The bluetooth earbuds offer near real-time translations with its built-in microphone. Accuracy of translations with the device are known to vary, however.
8. Tablet - 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
2001: A Space Odyssey is another sci-fi classic that predicted numerous technological innovations. In the 1968 film, we see protagonist Dr. Dave Bowman watching videos on a tablet as he's eating a meal aboard a space station. Apple began popularizing the tablet form factor when it initially released the iPad in 2010. Now we have several computing tablets from Google, Samsung, Microsoft, and more.
9. AI Voice Assistant - 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
HAL 9000 is one of the greatest characters in sci-fi history. The AI assistant was capable of speech, facial recognition, and more. Oh, and it was hellbent on killing humans. Apple famously released its own voice assistant in 2011 with the launch of Siri on iPhones. Now we have Android's OK Google voice assistant and Amazon Alexa. The verdict is still out on whether these AI assistants will try to end us, however.
10. Cloning - Sleeper (1973)
In the comedic movie Sleeper, Woody Allen's character wakes up in the year 2173 after being cryogenically frozen. While we don't have the technology to safely freeze people yet, when Allen's character wakes up in the future, he finds out that cloning is a thing and is tasked with re-creating an entire human being using nothing more than remnants of a nose. While the jury is still out on whether or not we've attempted to clone humans, animals have been successfully cloned. Dolly is perhaps the most famous example. The female sheep was cloned in 1996 with scientist taking a cell from another sheep. More recently, actress Barbra Streisand revealed that she made two clones of her dog.
11. Digital Billboards - Blade Runner (1982)
The 1982 sci-fi film Blade Runner is greatly revered for its evocative, neon depiction of the future. Massive digital billboards playing videos were prominent throughout the movie's cyberpunk world. Flashforward to today and you have neon digital billboards littered in areas such as Times Square in NY and Dotonbori in Japan.
12. Body Scanners That Can See You Naked - Airplane II: The Sequel (1982)
Comedic movie Airplane II: The Sequel most likely didn't intend to accurately predict the future in any meaningful way when it released in 1982, but it showcased an airport body scanner that's capable of seeing through clothes. Real-life backscatter X-ray machines, nicknamed "naked scanners", were widely implemented in the US with the FAA Modernization Reform Act of 2012.
13. Military Robots - Short Circuit (1986)
In the 1986 movie Short Circuit, a tech company prototypes robots for the U.S. military and ends up creating "Johnny 5." The robot ends up getting struck by lightning, providing it a form of sentience. While robots may not be sentient (at least not yet...), there are companies like Boston Dynamics that are designing robots for the U.S. military. Recently, the tech company released a video that went viral, which showcased a man trying to hold back a dog-like robot from opening a door. Despite some tugging from the man, which lead to minor robo dismemberment, the robot persisted until it accomplished its mission. Cool, or creepy?
14. AR - RoboCop (1987)
After being shot up, police officer Alex J. Murphy finds himself on the brink of death in RoboCop. He's saved when the government revives what's left of him and augments his body with machinery. Among his enhancements is a visor that augments his vision. It displays grids, which help bolster his aim and provides additional info like mission objectives. Today we have augmented reality glasses like Google Glass and AR visors like HoloLens and Magic Leap that are in development.
15. Self-Lacing Shoes - Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Back to the Future Part II showcased self-lacing Nike shoes. Fast forward to today and you have Nike shoes that look and function nearly identical to the ones in the movie. Okay, so maybe this is a case where a movie directly influences an invention. This is especially evident when you consider that Nike only produced 89 of them (to coincide with the 1989 release of the movie). All of the proceeds also went to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. Nike actually started working on the shoes in 2005, but the battery technology wasn't ready at the time and it required bulky motors. As mobile technology improved, Nike resumed work on the shoes in 2012 before releasing them in 2016.
16. Hoverboard - Back to the Future Part II (1989)
Just about everybody wanted a hoverboard after Marty Mcfly rode one in Back to the Future Part II. Well, we have them now, kind of. Tech company Hendo successfully funded its Hoverboard Kickstater by raising over $500,000 through the crowd funding site. It works, too. I've tried it. The only caveat, and it's a major one, is that it uses maglev technology and thus requires a conductive metal floor. So unless you have access to a copper skate park, you probably won't get to ride one any time soon.
17. Self-Driving Cars - Total Recall (1990)
In Total Recall, Arnold Schwarzenegger's character rides in a self-driving Johnny Cab. The sci-fi taxi featured a talking robot driver. While that's not a thing today, self-driving cars are very real. Google has been testing them since 2009, and as of June 2016, the tech giant's self-driving vehicles drove over 1.7 million miles. Many companies such as Nvidia, Tesla, and Uber are now working on self-driving car technology aimed at the mass-market.
18. VR Headset - The Lawnmower Man (1992)
In the 1992 film The Lawnmower Man, Dr. Lawrence Angelo (played by Pierce Brosnan) experiments on a simple-minded gardener named Jobe Smith (played by Jeff Fahey) by strapping him to a virtual reality headset. The VR contraption dramatically improves Smith's cognitive abilities, which eventually allows him to learn Latin in two hours. It also inadvertently gives him telepathic powers. An evil mastermind subplot ensues. While we've yet to discover telepathic capabilities, we do have VR headsets like the Oculus Rift, PSVR, and HTC Vive. In addition to gaming, VR headsets are also helping autistic people developer better social skills and are assisting patients overcome psychological issues like PTSD.
19. Widespread Genetic Testing and Engineering - Gattaca (1997)
Gattaca depicts a future where genetic testing and engineering are pervasive parts of our culture. In the 1997 sci-fi film, job interviews are determined by genetic tests and babies are engineered to near perfection before they're born. In the movie, DNA tests are so accurate that they not only indicate what diseases individuals might be susceptible to, but can even predict cause and time of death. Today 23andMe allows you to conduct your own genetic testing at home. For a fee, the Biotech company will send you a vial that you can deposit your saliva into and mail back to get test results that will tell you what diseases you might be susceptible to. In addition, recent breakthroughs in the biotech world have given scientists the ability to make precision edits to DNA. This is a technique known as CRISPR, which stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats. In 2015, scientists were able to use CRISPR to cut the HIV virus out of living cells from patients in a lab. Scientist also assert that CRISPR could allow babies to be born without many common genetic disorders in the near future.
20. Motion Sensing Input Devices - Minority Report (2002)
In the 2002-released movie Minority Report, actor Tom Cruise waves his hands and fingers in the air to control a gesture-based UI. Roughly eight years later in 2010, Microsoft would release the Kinect with an infrared projector that would allow the Xbox 360 to track user limbs in three-dimensional space. More advanced, subsequent devices like the Leap Motion and Microsoft's very own second-generation Kinect would later add higher-fidelity finger tracking.
21. Personalized Advertisements - Minority Report (2002)
Minority Report wasn't only right when it predicted motion-tracked gestures, but it also showcased personalized ads. In the sci-fi film, you see Cruise's character getting served ads tailored to his interests and purchasing history. This is now a very crucial component to websites like Facebook, which came out two years after Minority Report. Companies are also beginning to roll out billboards that use recognition technology to detect people's hair length, height, and more to deliver targeted ads in public.

Ralph (John C. Reilly) and Vanellope (Sarah Silverman) are returning to the big screen this November with Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2. The movie is directed by Zootopia's Phil Johnston and Rich Moore and features an additional voice cast that includes Taraji P. Henson, Alan Tudyk, James Corden, and a few extra famous voices from Disney's past like Jodi Benson, who played Ariel in The Little Mermaid. The movie was first announced during the summer of 2016; however, it was originally supposed to come out in March and has since been pushed back to the fall of 2018. With the release of the most recent trailer, fans of the original film finally have an idea of what the sequel to the 2012 movie is all about. In addition to that, the Wreck-It Ralph 2 trailer is filled with Easter eggs relating to video games, the history of Disney, and other Disney characters. Here's everything we saw in the new trailer.
The trailer opens with Litwak's Family Fun Center, the arcade from the first movie. It takes place at least six years after the first one. At the 17:17 mark of the original Wreck-It Ralph, "HAPPY 5TH B RTHDAY SVZY" appears on the sign for the arcade. In the Wreck-It Ralph 2 trailer, the sign says "HAPPY 11TH B RTHDAY SVZY," so at least six years have passed, as long as Mr. Litwak has been updating Suzy's birthday.
There are a few video game Easter eggs once Mr. Litwak--the Walter Day-esque owner of the arcade--enters the building. In his arcade, we can see Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Virtua Cop--a shooter which also appeared on the Sega Saturn.
For the most part, it's business as usual for the inhabitants of the arcade. All the video game characters are still hanging out in the Grand Central Station-like area while the arcade is closed. The only character we could make out was Q'Bert, probably because he's bright orange.
While Walter is connecting to the internet, there's an arcade machine behind him called The Red Scare. This could refer to the event that took place in October 20, 1947 where US Congress opened investigations to see if members of the Hollywood community were members of the Communist Party. Walt Disney was one of the people that gave a statement saying there is no communist influence in Hollywood. This moment in American history is commonly referred to as "The Red Scare."
In Walter's office, there are two plates featuring Star Wars characters on his shelf: Yoda and Chewbacca. That's not the only Star Wars reference in the film though. According to IMDB, Anthony Daniels is reprising his role as C-3PO for Wreck-It Ralph 2.
After Walter turns on his new router, Ralph and Vanellope find themselves accidentally taking a trip to the internet, leaving the arcade behind. Our guess is that the movie is about the duo trying to find their way back to the arcade.
When Ralph and Vanellope get to the internet, there are signs for games, apps, and websites everywhere. However, the only ones that actually exist in the real world are YouTube Red and Trip Advisor. That's a bummer because GunThock sounds pretty awesome.
Ralph and Vanellope find themselves inside Ebay, watching auctions happen in real time. They stop to stare at a velvet painting of "Sorrowful Kitten."
Upon closer inspection, the artist's signature reads "E. Schiele." There is actually a painter named Egon Schiele from the early 20th century. The Austrian artist was an early Expressionist painter, primarily known for his overtly-sexual portraits, which included many nude self-portraits. To the best of our knowledge, he did not paint a sad cat.
In the background of eBay, other items up for bid are shown. One of them is a Magic Lamp for $30. It's the lamp from the Disney film Aladdin.
Ralph and Vanellope end up inside a mobile game on a little girl's tablet where Ralph is feeding a bunny pancakes, over and over again. That little girl looks really familiar.
She looks familiar because it's baby Moana. Either she's a time traveler or a direct descendant of the character. In fact, Auli'i Cravalho--the voice of the character--is reprising her role for Wreck-It Ralph 2, as listed on IMDB.

This Year's Hidden Gems
While this year is packed with numerous highly anticipated big-budget games, it's also filled with a wealth of exciting new indie games that you shouldn't miss out on. With so many hidden gems to keep track of, we've compiled the 15 indie games we're most excited about. Click ahead to see what's in store for this year. It's worth noting that many of these games haven't been released yet. However, we have had the opportunity to play them at prior events. Based on what we've played, we've determined that these are games that you should definitely keep an eye on, and have therefore, included it in this gallery. There's way more exciting indie games coming this year that we didn't mention here. Which ones are you most looking forward to this year? Let us know in the comments below. For more on the bigger games this year, check out our individual features highlighting the most anticipated PS4 games, Xbox One games, PC games, and Switch games for a broader look at the year ahead. If you're curious about what exclusives are on each platform, you can check out our features on Xbox One exclusives, PS4 exclusives, PC exclusives, and Switch exclusives.
Celeste | PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC
Celeste is a magical game that will challenge you in a multitude of ways. Its platforming is really, really hard, and you'll likely get frustrated at your fumbling fingers for failing a jump or at your slow brain for not figuring out how to get to the next safe zone. But when you get to that checkpoint, it's satisfying to know your fingers and brain aren't, in fact, useless. More than its platforming, though, Celeste's story is challenging. The main protagonist, Madeline, is faced with a horrible journey--both climbing a mountain and battling her own mind--and at times it's not easy to watch her suffer. The game's writing is such that it's easy to project that suffering onto yourself, and that can make it tough to face playing the next level. But you should absolutely do so, because it's a story with an ending worth the struggle and a cast of characters so endearing you'll be rooting for them to succeed. Just expect to fail a few leaps of faith along the way.
Donut County | PC, PS4, iOS
If you've played Katamari Damacy, you might be familiar with the concept of Donut County--just in reverse. In Donut County, you control a hole in the ground that grows the more you can get to fall inside of it. Start small with lawn chairs and pebbles and work your way up to buildings and even mountains, all while solving physics-based puzzles to fit everything in the hole. Donut County is a solo project by indie developer Ben Esposito, who worked on What Remains of Edith Finch and The Unfinished Swan. Playing as a hole sounds really silly, and Donut County's colorful art and sassy animal characters are cheekily charming, but in practice it's meditative and relaxing to play. We're excited to see more of what Donut County and its trash (or treasures) have to offer--and hopefully what's at the bottom of that hole.
Griftlands | PC
Griftlands is the "pirate" game we've always wanted (and one of our most anticipated PC games for this year). You might take a good long look at it and say, "This is a sci-fi/fantasy mashup RPG, not some swashbuckling romp on the high seas." And you'd be right. But who says green aliens and humans can't come together and form a pirate crew? It's space piracy we're talking about. Unlike most RPGs, you're not an adventurer setting out to save the day; you're a space pirate/mercenary-type looking for your next big payday. In your journey for riches, you'll come across a bunch of different characters, potential party members, and bandits, and you'll be able to choose exactly how you deal with each character and situation. There are written questlines for certain characters, but the larger story is one you'll craft on your own as you play and make decisions. We played it at PAX West last year and chose to be a jerk who treated their friends with reverence and anyone else with extreme disrespect. After about 30 minutes of acting like a tough guy, we saw ourselves losing weekends to it. Griftlands is scheduled to release sometime in early 2018, so we're on high alert for a release date announcement. We can't wait to get back to our quest for fortune, casually intimidating NPCs, and giving bandits who stand in our way what-for.
Iconoclasts | PS4, Vita, PC
Calling Iconoclasts a "Metroidvania" is accurate, but simply seeing it as that undercuts what makes it truly special. Its world is full of deep, resonating conflicts: science vs. religion and technology vs. nature, just to name a few. The faces of these conflicts are quirky, fleshed-out characters with personality bursting from every pixel of their 16-bit sprites. But for as quick as the game is to make a joke, it can also tug at your heartstrings, whether it's by killing off a character's family or showing an unhealthy mother-daughter relationship. As for the Metroidvania elements, protagonist Robin's wrench has more uses than a Swiss army knife. You can ride rails, crank open doors, and even deflect enemy attacks. The game also constantly shakes things up with puzzles and boss encounters that truly put the basic moves you've learned to the test. Top if all off with a great soundtrack and colorful level design, and you've got yourself a delightful indie package. The fact that it was all developed by one man over nearly a decade is just icing on the cake.
Jenny Leclue | PS4, PC, iOS
Jenny Leclue's charming and vibrant hand-drawn art style is captivating, but its atmospheric world and endearing premise is what makes it worth getting excited about. Told in the form of a metanarrative, you experience a mystery through the eyes of Jenny Leclue, a fictional character from a detective novel written by fictional author Arthur K. Finklestein. As you control Jenny, you're faced with choices that can affect both Finklestein's story and his narration of the events that occur in the game. You'll also solve an array of brain teaser-like puzzles in your quest to discover the truth. While not much has been shown of the game since its playable teaser early last year, what we've played so far has shown great promise.
Knights and Bikes | PC, PS4
Grand adventure! Bicycles! Kids with asthma! Knights and Bikes is an adventure where two kids use their imaginations (and their bikes) to overcome surreal mysteries in their hometown. And when you pedal your bike too hard, you've got to take a hit from your inhaler. The art style gives the game a timeless look, but theold-school action adventure gameplay captures the variety of real-time combat games like Secret of Mana. And while this is indie studio Foam Sword's debut game, the developers have a track record of success, having previously worked at Media Molecule on LittleBigPlanet and Tearaway.
Knuckle Sandwich | PC, Mac
If Undertale's brand of Earthbound-style weirdness wasn't quite weird enough for you, then Knuckle Sandwich might be more up your alley. What we've played so far, Knuckle Sandwich wears the skin of a polished 16-bit-era RPG set in the modern day, and very quickly goes to some unexpected places. It's surreal, off-the-rails, and laugh-out-loud funny. You can expect satisfying turn-based combat with real-time action components, a variety of mini-games, a sharp sense of style, and impeccable comedic timing. And it's also apparently got a section where you catch a 3D, off-brand Garfield with a Poké Ball? Knuckle Sandwich will hopefully launch in 2018, and we're excited to play it. In the meantime, you can watch us play a demo of the game right over here.
Manifold Garden | PC, PS4
Mind-bending and visually striking, Manifold Garden is like playing through an M.C. Escher painting (in the best way possible). The puzzle game puts you in a stunning world that stretches out into infinity, and it's your job to learn its rules and master its physics to traverse it. If you can't get to a platform, try jumping off the one you're on; as you'll fall, you'll pass what's either a recursion of it or a repetition, but either way, you can use the world's loop to find your way around seemingly impassable obstacles. Navigating Manifold Garden is almost like looking into a pastel-toned hall of mirrors. There's no up or down, and it can be hard to get your bearings. But when you do solve a puzzle, you're struck by the beauty of its physics and its art, making it one of the games we're most looking forward to in 2018.
Mothergunship | PS4, PC
Mothergunship is the rare sequel that makes every improvement you could ask for. It takes the entertaining concept of Tower of Guns--a first-person shooter with elements of bullet-hell games and roguelikes--and addresses every major complaint about it. You don't even need to pick up a controller to see that Mothergunship presents much smoother mechanics than its predecessor, with fluid movement and gunplay that is enjoyable in its own right. The latter point is particularly welcome in light of the newly added weapon crafting system, which lets you build outlandish weapons with a dozen barrels that each launches homing rockets. Silly as the prospect of mounting a fish tank on top of your gun might be, there are legitimate considerations to take into account in terms of how much energy an especially ridiculous weapon will require to fire. Mothergunship also introduces new persistent elements to provide a greater sense of progression as you play. Combined with the ability to play cooperatively with a friend online, and it seems like there will be far from more reason to keep coming back for more.
Necrobarista | PC, Switch
Where do you go when you die? Probably not a coffee shop occupied by transient souls, but then again, it might be just crazy enough to work. In visual novel Necrobarista, the dead get a chance to extend their lives in a mysterious Melbourne cafe. The catch: You might not know who's alive and who's dead. Inspired by anime, including the excellent Death Parade, Necrobarista tells a story over the length of a typical TV season and with a distinct anime flair. 3D cutscenes bookend exploration sequences where you can explore the room you're in, reading snippets of information about the history of where you're standing or the characters around you. Expect Cowboy Bebop references, dramatic knife sequences (really), and a lot of love for coffee.
Ooblets | PC, Xbox One
Ooblets is what happens when you cross the simulation aspects of Stardew Valley, the battle structure of Pokemon, the stylish cuteness of Animal Crossing. The game looks like a chill experience with a focus on enjoying the journey of collecting and exploring its pastel-colored world with all the hallmarks of the games it encapsulates gathered together in one place. The creatures you collect in the game are called Ooblets, and you can use them to battle against other Ooblets you meet in the world. You can customize your character's appearance and clothing with a wide range of styles. And you can even decorate and rearrange your room. And you can dance, too! Dancing automatically makes games more exciting. There's no set exact date for Ooblets yet, but it's set to launch sometime this year for PC and Xbox One.
Overland | PC, Mac, Linux
If you're a fan of turn-based tactics, difficult decisions that come back to haunt you, or American wilderness, Overland should be on your radar. It's a post-apocalyptic rogue-lite road-trip across the USA, where monsters run rampant and gasoline is sparse. You'll start off with just one survivor and attempt to travel west, making pit stops along the way to recruit strangers, fortify your car, and find supplies. Its minimalist visual design is super-slick, and like every good survival game, there are constantly tough situations to deal with. Are you confident enough in your combat abilities to venture far away from your vehicle? Do you spend extra fuel to drive to a more dangerous, but possibly more lucrative location? When overrun, do you try and get that straggler back in the car, or take off without them? Do you boot one of your squad members to give their car seat to a very good dog you just came across? At the time of writing, Overland is in a "first access" phase on itch.io, meaning you can play a development build of the game now and get a taste of its campaign and mechanics. And it's a very, very good taste. We're very much looking forward to this one when it launches in full.
Return of the Obra Dinn | PC
Return of the Obra Dinn is one of the most visually striking upcoming indie games. Taking inspiration from classic text adventures on PC, it sports a two-tone color palette that at times is a bit tough on the eyes, but hidden behind the retro aesthetic is a fascinating detective game. Before arriving on board a ship called the Obra Dinn, you're given a book and a mysterious pocket watch. When you find a person's dead body, your watch allows you flash to the moment of their death, while revealing other details, such as who was in the vicinity. With this knowledge, you fill out the details of the crew in your book, flipping through the ship's manifest to intuit who died and who was killed by whom. As you steadily make more discoveries, more mysteries are revealed. The sense of intrigue that pervades the experience sets up a narrative that's not only fascinating but gratifying. It's rare when you get a detective-centric game that allows you to flex your deduction skills. Return of the Obra Dinn challenges you to make sense of the events unfolding and gives you the freedom to infer. With seven pages worth of names to discover in the manifest, we can't wait to step aboard the Obra Dinn again to uncover more.
The Gardens Between | PC, PS4
The Gardens Between uses some clever tricks to present a story about nostalgia and friendship between two protagonists. As a narrative-focused puzzle game, each stage presents a sort of hodgepodge of their collective memories, referencing moments and locations from their childhood. As you maneuver both characters past giant retro consoles and CRT television sets, you'll come to understand that their collection of memories hold a deeper meaning--one that examines their bond and how it will shape their future. This peculiar puzzle games plays with time and perspective. Simply walking propels time forward, while walking backwards will rewind it. Manipulating your surroundings creates new pathways for the two friends to progress. You'll often have to separate the two characters and have them tackle their own unique challenges to help the other move forward. But by the end of every stage, they'll unite and move on to the next stage, together. From the small chunk of gameplay we played, there was an endearing and heartfelt quality to it. With more levels that aim to push your perceptive skills--forcing you to think ahead with every interaction--they'll also reveal more of the reasoning behind this nostalgic romp for its two characters. It'll be exciting to see unfold, and The Gardens Between is definitely one you'll want to keep an eye out for when it releases later this year.
Wattam | PS4, PC
Even if you aren't familiar with the name Keita Takahashi, there's a good chance you've played his most famous creation: Katamari Damacy. That game solidified his reputation as a developer with an eye for cute characters and absurd scenarios, and Wattam, Takahashi's upcoming PS4 and PC game, fits the bill perfectly. It's a game about experimentation and discovery, where the act of play is valued over completing explicit challenges. Some could argue that it's not a game at all. So be it. Maybe Wattam deserves to fall into a category all its own, because it's definitely unlike anything else around. Playing as a Mayor with a bomb under his hat, it's your job to create colorful explosions to attract new citizens, and you accomplish this by holding hands with different objects and characters in your environment. These pre-explosion interactions produce many kinds of unexpected surprises, lending Wattam a consistent charm that only grows with each explosion, as new potential friends--and sources of entertainment--enter the scene. We've only played a fraction of Wattam so far, but it instantly put a smile on our face and we can wait to see what else Takahashi has up his sleeve.
Way of the Passive Fist | PS4, PC
Way of the Passive Fist offers a unique twist to the side-scrolling beat 'em up genre. Instead of relying on standard button mashing to beat up pixelated goons, the game focuses on timing-based mechanics where you parry and dodge enemy attacks to defeat them. The result plays like a bizarre love child between Streets of Rage and Street Fighter III. It's awesome. The action is fairly straightforward: enemies take turns trying to fight you, gradually teaching you the varying pace of their attacks before eventually tiring out. Then you simply push them over. While this fighting style sounds counterintuitive for a beat 'em up, it works surprisingly well. The act of parrying and evading is easy to execute, yet it offers a steady degree of challenge, especially against multiple foes with different attack patterns. Add that on top of a Fist of the North Star-like narrative, and you have an action game that's as charming as it is mechanically distinct.

The Best of the Best
Rainbow Six Siege has undergone many changes in the time since its 2015 release. From adding new Operators, maps, and weapons--along with a number of gameplay balances and tweaks--the game has evolved into a remarkable online shooter with a passionate and dedicated audience. And now with the arrival of new content for Year 3, Rainbow Six Siege will make the original first 20 Operators free for players who purchase the Standard Edition starting on March 3; Keep in mind that Starter Pack players are limited to picking and choosing six Operators. Now is the perfect time to jump into Siege and take part in the intense close-quarters shoot-outs. Still, there are a number of things to consider before starting your career. And it all starts with picking the right Operator to invest to start with or invest towards. These are our best picks for Operators for anyone starting out in Rainbow Six Siege. From understanding how to be a solid attacker by utilizing weapons in a quick fashion, to knowing how to work on defense by keeping those barricades and traps up, these characters will help ease you into the fast-paced nature of the game. While you're often encouraged as a newcomer to choose Operators that make you less of a liability to your team, we are firm believers in learning as you go, so we've highlighted choices that reflect this mentality. Of course, you'll likely have your own opinions and we'd love to hear them in the comments below. For more info on Rainbow Six Siege, including our time with the game-changing Chimera expansion, check out our coverage on GameSpot.
Ash (Attack)
Ash is an extremely fast run-and-gun attacker who can open up walls at a range without risking a close encounter. Her R4-C has a high rate of fire and often wins 1:1 engagements with defenders generally faster firing SMGs. With her unique gadget--the M120 CREM--she can fire special Breaching Rounds, allowing her to bust open walls and destroy enemy contraptions. This is especially useful when against gadgets like barbed wire and deployable shields. This particular Operator is useful for when you need to strike through an enemy defense quickly.
Blackbeard (Attack)
Although not as strong as his old self due to several nerfs, Blackbeard's unique trait, the TARS MK 0 rifle shield, gives him a decisive advantage in 1:1 gunfights. He can effectively take several shots to the upper body without damage before his shield breaks. This added defense is especially evident if his lower body is behind indestructible objects such as windows and desks, doubling his protection.
He can be an essential character for entry into the first room of almost any map, as well as that last push against the enemy. Along with his shield comes the strong mid-range Mk17 CQB, and long range SR-25. Plus, he has an effective desert eagle.
Fuze (Attack)
Fuze is a bombastic attacker due to his reliance on explosives. His Cluster Charge is one of the most deadly gadgets in the game capable of downing multiple defenders, pushing the enemy team out of a room, or outright winning a match in the right circumstances. He has a versatile loadout that allows players to choose between a ballistic shield, AK-12, and 6P41 LMG with 100 rounds.
However, his explosive charges can be harmful to hostages, so be mindful of who's nearby when getting those charges ready.
Hibana (Attack)
Hibana is one of the A-list Operators in the Siege meta with her X-Kairos launcher, which can tear through reinforced walls. Along with Thermite, she's one of only two Operators who can prevent attacking teams from getting corralled through the opposing team's prepared death funnels. Her loadout also includes the Type-89 rifle and SuperNova shotgun, along with a selection of Stun Grenades and a Claymore--making Hibana a key support player as her team moves in.
Sledge (Attack)
Sledge is one of the best characters for beginners to learn the art of breaching, thanks in large part to his trusty hammer. It can break through walls, floors, and ceiling hatches. He's perfect for breach experimentation, especially when coupled with his L85A2 assault rifle, which is ideal for picking off people through cracks and holes in the environment. However, his hammer can break if you overuse it, so don't go too wild.
Thermite (Attack)
Thermite is a top tier Operator for Rainbow Six Siege. At launch, he was the only Operator capable of breaching reinforced walls with his Exo-Thermic Charge, and remains only one of two Operators that still can. Without Thermite (or Hibana), teams are forced to funnel through defenders' well planned traps and spaces on most maps, which makes him one of the more critical members of the team. His M1014 shotgun is excellent at close-range, and is fast and great from the hip. While his 556xi rifle on the other hand can be tricky to master, but has decent recoil and excels at range.
Zofia (Attack)
Zofia is an all around versatile Operator that you can't go wrong with. She can pick herself up from a downed state in a similar manner to Doc, carries around Claymore mines, and uses a double barreled grenade launcher that fires both concussive and impact rounds. However, be mindful of when you use her launcher, as hostages behind walls can be killed if used recklessly. She has both an LMG-E light machine gun and a M762 assault rifle. Making her a huge compliment to top tier Operators like Ash who can break through several walls and fight into a building at range.
Bandit (Defense)
Bandit is one of a handful of Operators that can counter Thermite's breach charges and one of the best power roamers with his MP7 sub-machine gun. His Shock Wire gadget can electrify metal objects, such as reinforced walls, deployable shields, and barbed wire--causing damage to attackers that touch them and destroying any gadgets placed on them. Using electrified barbed wire can also destroy drones in the scouting phase, buying defenders time. Bandit is a useful character when trying to counter the attacking team's tricks, especially when they're running special Operator combos (where two Operators use their skills in tandem) that can bust though barricades quickly.
Castle (Defense)
Castle is the only Operator who can place armor panels over standard doors and windows. In some situations, he can lock an attacking team out of a final hostage room if they have used all of their explosives. By bleeding the attackers of their breaching charges, burning off time from the game, and often preventing easy access from buildings interiors, there are several encounters where Castle can turn the tide.
Frost (Defense)
Frost is an all around solid character with good speed and defense. However, what places her above other defense characters is her useful gadget called the Sterling MK2 LHT "Welcome Mat", a large bear-trap that can pin enemy attackers to the ground. This gadget can end a round entirely if it's stepped on by the final remaining attacker. The mere presence of Frost can slow down an attacking force due to the fact that they have to watch their step all the way across the map. She also has a very strong SMG--the C1--that has a slow rate of fire but is incredibly accurate.
Lesion (Defense)
As part of a wave of trap focused defenders, Lesion's hard to spot GU Mines embed in attackers legs and do damage over time resulting in distraction and potential death. Like Frost, he can occasionally end a round with a well placed trap. The GU mines are especially effective when used against fast attackers, not only slowing them down, but also poisoning them. His T-5 SMG and SIx12 SD are reliable in a firefight, but he's at his best catching defenders by surprise.
Mira (Defense)
Mira is an all around player with strong primary weapons, but her Black Mirror gadget allows her to see the attacking team coming from behind reinforced barricades. The mere presence of her Black Mirror can cause attackers to shift their avenues of approach knowing that they are being watched. She can effectively negate the surprise of Thermite opening up a wall behind a defending team, making her an effective anchor for the team.
Her Vector .45 ACP boasts a very high rate of fire and she can take an ITA12S shotgun in her pistol slot to open up walls and murder holes.
Mute (Defense)
Mute is the essential defender for preventing reinforced walls from being breached by remotely detonated gadgets. His Signal Disruptors can jam enemy frequencies, resulting in their remote gadgets--such as breach charges and explosives--not working properly. He's the more direct counter to Thermite, and can shut down drones from scouting and finding objectives.
He has a respectable loadout with the MP5K sub-machine gun, along with a powerful but slow firing M590A1 shotgun. His nitro cell charge can also open up walls and kill attackers behind them.
