Game news If you have an Xbox, here are 6 Xbox games in March 2024 that promise heavy action

WWE 2K24

After going through a somewhat complicated period, the WWE 2K saga was finally taken over by Visual Concepts (the studio behind NBA 2K) and since then, it is clear that things are going much better. Fans of fights in tight tights and other aerobatics will therefore be delighted that WWE 2K24 will perform its first German flexiblex at the beginning of the month with not one superstar on display, but three: Cody Rhodes, Bianca Belaire and Rhea Ripley will offer themselves through a dedicated mode allowing you to faithfully discover their respective careers. There are obviously a plethora of other modes, such as a homage to WrestleMania, My ASCENSION, My FACTION, My MG and many others as well as an ultra-supplied cast : you shouldn’t be disoriented if you know a little about wrestling games.

Contra: Operation Galuga

offered to the whole world, initiating the start of a cult saga signed Konami: if you want to treat yourself to a nice cure of nostalgia or simply discover this classic, then this Contra Operation Galuga should fully satisfy you. This is a thoughtful remake designed by WayForward (Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp, BloodRayne Betrayal Fresh Bites and Shantae and the Seven Sirens), a studio that knows how to do old-school stuff: we will therefore find an action and shooter game in 2D that is ultra-naggy, but really enjoyable and playable alone or in cooperation for up to four! Redesign requires, we will be entitled to modern graphics, but also to new content such as new levels and enemies never seen before. In short, it looks very effective and it’s not as if the license hadn’t proven itself so far.

Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection

In 2004 and 2005, Star Wars offered some of the best video games it has ever released: Star Wars Battlefront and Star Wars Battlefront 2. Anyone who had a PC, PS2 or Xbox may have already touched these cult titles which dared to offer extremely epic and large-scale battles: whether in the shoes of a stormtrooper (then it was a TPS), a Jedi or a Sith (with melee gameplay) or in space at the controls of a spaceship, these little wonders from LucasArt delighted us. Good news, the Aspyr studio will therefore offer in March a remastered compilation with bonus content (maps and heroes), the return of campaign mode… and above all, online multiplayer matches for up to 64 players. If you were disappointed not to have had an experience worthy of that of the 2000s in the recent Battlefronts, this Classic Collection will serve as a real feast.

Alone in the Dark

Before Resident Evil, there was a first horror game that caused many chills: it was called Alone in the Dark, was released in 1992 and on top of that, it was French! Well, since then, water has flowed under the bridge and after quite a few episodes, what has become a real franchise has clearly run out of steam… only to start again with a vengeance. Indeed, this founding opus will soon benefit from a total remake, a true reinvention of the myth which obviously arouses curiosity. In the shoes of Edward Carnby (played by David Hardbour) or Emily Hartwood (Jodie Comer), our protagonists will enter the formidable Derceto Manor to solve an investigation inspired by noir thrillers, certainly tinged with the creepy supernatural. Horrific action, puzzles and a twisting storyline await us and very clearly, we’re crossing our fingers that it’s a nice surprise.

Dragon’s Dogma II

Hideaki Itsuno is clearly a great man in video games, he who took over the Devil May Cry saga from its second opus to raise it to the top: however, you should know that his real dream has always been to make a action-RPG tinged with fantasy with online mechanics, something he was only able to do with the first Dragon’s Dogma a good ten years ago. Here he is back with a sequel that promises to be simply excellent: even more ambitious, more grandiose, deeper, more beautiful (thank you RE Engine) and more nervous, Dragon’s Dogma II has something to catch the eye and is definitely one to watch like milk on fire. Capcom definitely continues its very good momentum!

South Park: Snow Day!

There have been a handful of South Park video games since the end of the 90s, but it was especially with the RPGs The Stick of Truth and The Annal of Destiny that the saga received its video game nobility. : here, with Snow Day!, the recipe is clearly different since we are dealing with an action-adventure game… and in 3D ! We play “the new kid on South Park” and in the company of Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny, we will have to celebrate the “snow day” and save the city from chaos. A title playable solo, but also with others in cooperation of up to four with plenty of melee or ranged weapons, powers and a bunch of enemies and bosses to break your ankles. We are particularly curious.
