#4 Astral Chain
Instead of showing Bayonetta 3 at Nintendo Direct, Platinum games decided to show off a completely new game which is scheduled to launch this year. Astral chain is an action hack and slash game from the studio behind 2017's Nier Automata and the upcoming Bayonetta 3.
Set in a futuristic cyberpunk version of Japan, you play either as a male or a female cop, along with a twin companion of the opposite gender of your character, fighting off an alien invasion in the city of Ark. Alongside your twin companion, you also get to bring a legion- a living weapon to fight alongside you in the battle between good and evil.
The combat in this game boils down to slashing your enemies with a sword, as well as with a ranged chain like secondary weapon. You can also command your legion to fight for you as well as make strategies to overcome a certain battle scenario. Stealth also seems to be an option according to the above trailer and it seems the players will be able to freely navigate the game's world outside combat.
Astral Chain is coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch on 30 August 2019.
#3 Fire Emblems: Three Houses
The highly anticipated turn based tactical role playing game Fire Emblems: Three Houses is the anime version of Harry Potter. The game is set in the continent of Fódlan, where the order is maintained by the church of Seiros.
You play as a mercenary either male or female, who is invited to teach one of Officers Academy's three mighty houses- Black Eagles, Blue Lions, Golden Deer. As a professor to the mulitude of students of one of these houses, you will lead them through academic lives and indulge in turn based tactical role playing battles which you have to strategize and control as the fate of the students lie in balance.
The more your character interacts with the students, the more prominent and diversified their skills become as the game progresses. Depending on how you guide them, each of your student will be able to wield different weapons during the battles as well as master the art of magic while learning special skills such as horsemanship.
Fire Emblems is coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch on 26 July 2019.
