Most Anticipated Video Games of 2016, Part 1: Sequels, Remakes and Adaptations
Many of those AAA titles you were expecting in 2015? They're coming in 2016—at least, as of now. The year ahead will see a conclusion to Nathan Drake's Uncharted saga, the beginning of a new chapter in the Mass Effect series, the arrival of Link and Zelda in HD on the Wii U, a new Dark Souls game, and much more. Sure, there are plenty of intriguing brand-new properties arriving this year, too—and we'll preview those a bit later this week. For now, take a look at this year's notable returning videogame series.
Eidos Montreal's cyberpunk RPG/shooter picks up in a 2029 plagued by growing anti-augment sentiment, two years after the events of acclaimed 2011 title Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Shooting isn't required; the entire game, including boss "fights,"can be completed in stealth if that's your preference. (Good luck trying that in the new "hard mode.") Despite the subtitle, Mankind Divided also features more female characters—including female combatants for the first time.
