The Sky's the Limit for No Man's Sky

The tale of No Man's Sky is, well, a tragic one. Unveiled in 2013 to widespread acclaim based solely on the trailer, it quickly escalated to the top of the PS4's "most anticipated" list. It appeared to be a game that took elements from the survival genre and expanded them into an enormous, vibrant universe where anything was possible. Exploration looked pure and exciting, boasting hundreds, if not thousands, of intriguing creatures and anomalies at every turn. Unfortunately, come release day 2016, gamers quickly found that its limitless potential was, in fact, quite limited.

We're now only weeks away from Square-Enix's greatly anticipated Octopath Traveler! Announced near the launch of the Nintendo Switch, I've been paying close attention to this title. Its aesthetic hearkens back to joyous hours spent with my SNES or PSX! It wears its inspiration on its sleeves and promises a modern twist on a golden age. For those of you that have been keeping up with the blog, it should be no shock that I'm stoked for this one.

The survival genre has picked up quite a bit of steam! Even Bethesda just announced their take on the genre in the form of Fallout: 76 (at least according to rumors.) Spanning dozens of settings and environments, gamers have survived everything from zombie outbreaks to brutal winters to prehistoric beasts. Soon, however, they can take the challenge to the red planet itself, courtesy of Limbic Entertainment's Memories of Mars.
