#10 Marvel’s Avengers
- Developer: Crystal Dynamics
- Publisher: Eidos Montreal
- Platforms: PC, PS4, XBO, Google Stadia
- Release: May 15, 2020
- Co-op: Online 4 Players
- Competitive Multiplayer: N/A
The developers who brought out the Tomb Raider franchise is working on Marvel’s Avengers. This is a brand new Marvel experience with players controlling various heroes from the Marvel franchise. From the storyline shown off so far, we know that the game will take place after the unveiling of The Avengers new headquarters. An accident causes the headquarters and city to be destroyed which results in Earth banning all heroes. As a result, The Avengers disbanded but a new threat may cause the once-banned heroes to take up arms and save humanity once again.
This is an action-adventure title that will offer not only a single-player experience but a cooperative gameplay option as well. We don’t have too many details about the cooperative game mode just yet, but it does seem that the main bulk of the story is intended for a single-player experience from what we can gather. Sprinkled throughout the game will be co-op style missions which you can join together with a buddy or two, but again, we’re still waiting for more information to be unveiled about the game to really give a full assessment.
#9 Crossfire X
- Developer: Smilegate
- Publisher: Xbox Game Studios
- Platforms: XBO
- Release: 2020
- Co-op: TBA
- Competitive Multiplayer: Yes
Crossfire is a popular FPS that got its start within the Eastern markets. Developed by Smilegate and released in 2007, the title flourished and thanks to the announcement made during E3 2019, we were introduced to Crossfire X. This is also being developed by Smilegate and is heading to the Western markets starting with the Xbox One console first. Likewise, it will still feature two mercenary corporations for players to fight for, either the Black List terrorist-style group or the Global Risk.
This will still be an FPS online video game for players to fight against each other or team up in battle. Likewise, we don’t have a specific release date attached to when the game will release, though we’ll keep tabs on the latest for this game and hopefully have new information soon for future updates.
#8 Fall Guys Season 2
- Developer: Mediatonic
- Publisher: Devolver Digital
- Platforms: PC, PS4
- Release: August 4, 2020
- Co-op: N/A
- Competitive Multiplayer: Online
Fall Guys made a massive splash into the video game market when it launched. This indie title was a huge hit and it continues to find new players jumping onto this game on a regular basis. You can’t escape this game either as we’re seeing constant YouTube videos, social media posts, and streamers showcasing Fall Guys content. It’s a wacky battle royale game that throws players into bean-shaped characters as they attempt to compete in a slew of mini-games. With a variety of mini-games that can often pair players together for team rounds, fans of this title since it launched are likely growing a bit bored with the constant same rotation of levels and as a result, the developers at Mediatonic are hard at work to deliver a new season packed with additional levels and costumes.
We’re not sure just what the levels will be like when the next season launches, but we know that it’s coming in October of 2020. Likewise, this next set of levels are said to be featuring a medieval theme both in terms of the level designs and the new set of costumes. This game launched in August of this year and we’re getting ready for the next season already. However, we’re not sure if the following season is already planned for or if we’ll see a long wait time before players are able to get the following season content.
#7 Minecraft: Dungeons
- Developer: Mojang
- Publisher: Xbox Game Studios
- Platforms: XBO, NS, PS4, PC
- Release: 2020
- Co-op: Online 4 Players
- Competitive Multiplayer: N/A
Minecraft has been a popular video game title for years and it continues to provide both veterans and newcomers with hours of fun. However, if you were wanting something a bit different from the franchise then Mojang will be providing gamers with Minecraft: Dungeons sometime in 2020. This installment will not be like its predecessor as there will not be any options to lay down blocks or alter the world creatively. Instead, this is a dungeon crawler action-RPG with players joining together and venturing into the randomly-generated dungeon.
Once inside there will be deadly monsters, traps, puzzles and loot to gather. Unlike some of the more traditional dungeon crawler video game titles, Minecraft: Dungeons will not feature a class system which means players will easily be able to equip and use any weapon or armor set they find while venturing into the unknown.
#6 Valorant
- Developer: Riot Games
- Publisher: Riot Games
- Platforms: PC
- Release: 2020
- Co-op: Online
- Competitive Multiplayer: Online
Riot Games may be best known for League of Legends and for good reason too. LoL has been a popular MOBA title for years now, but it looks like Riot Games is wanting to develop something a bit more unique through diving into different genres. One of those genres is first-person shooters with the release of Valorant. The video game is a competitive FPS that blends CSGO and Overwatch into one. With Valorant, players with go through different team matches that play out much like a tactical shooter, but there is a twist in that the roster features heroes with unique abilities and attributes.
From there, players will work together in an attempt to complete tasks. At the moment, this title features a beta where players are going through a match that requires planting or defusing a bomb. It’s proving to be quite a popular video game so far in beta though we can expect the title to really open up when the game launches out of beta at some point this year.
