ABOUT THE GAME For Honor is an extremely complex and
unique fighting game. Instead of racking up combos by mashing
buttons as you barrage your opponent with blows, For Honor is a
much slower-paced and more methodical take on dueling combat. Each class of character has a unique fighting style and you
have to precisely time and direct your attacks and your blocks.
Pick your side between the war of knights, samurais and vikings.
WHO'S IT FOR For Honor's intense violence is only suitable for
players 17 and older.

ABOUT THE GAME If you thought watching a Friday The 13th
movie was scary, imagine actually being inside one of the slasher
films. That's exactly what Friday The 13th: The Game does, it lets

and the strategies you use will vary based on which counselor
you choose and whether or not you're selected to be Jason.

ABOUT THE GAME A dark, challenging entry that recalls the player-punishing Dark Souls series, Nioh puts the bravest of players
behind the steel of a skilled samurai. Wielding swords, axes,
spears, hammers and other enemy-eviscerating melee weapons,

the human and demon variety. A mature narrative, surrounding
Japan's blood-soaked Sengoku period, complements the brutal,
blade-clashing action.

ABOUT THE GAME RAID: World War II puts up to four players

from WWII, though over-the-top action takes precedence over
historical accuracy.

and older due to blood, violence and strong language.
