It’s not been a great time to be a looter shooter. Following Anthem’s downfall and Marvel’s Avengers' disappointing launch, the looter genre has never been in a worse state. Even the titles that get it right, includingDestiny 2,The Division 2, Diablo III, andBorderlands 3, all stumbled out of the gate. Perhaps that’s why the Outriders demo has been so shocking. Despite some faults, the beefy section of the game provided in the demo offers a satisfying first impression of what players might expect when the full game launches....

Somebody has made your high school and their rival in Team Builder complete with rosters. Same thing happened with players in college pointing out the player who represented them....

It’s hard to believe that it has been over two years since the monumental launch ofElden Ring. This was FromSoftware’s biggest release by a wide margin, expanding their soulslike structure to exploration like never before.
