Andreas goes on to describe how visual effects are all about bringing the entire experience together, a key facet of what will make Sea of Thieves more than a typical pirate game.

At E3, Head of Xbox Phil Spencer proudly declared 2015 as having the strongest lineup in Xbox history. With heavy hitters released such as Forza Motorsport 6 , Halo 5: Guardians , Rise of the Tomb Raider , and more, it’s a claim that’s hard to argue w
What Redditor m4rx hauled in from their dive into the Sea of Thieves data was pretty interesting. While many of the assets have yet to be decrypted, it turns out some the elements found were also present in the Pirate Legend video released previously by Rare. But there’s also quite a lot m

It’s been a while since we’ve heard new details about Capybara’s long-in-development dungeon crawler, hasn’t it. I continue to maintain that the demos of Below that I’ve spent time with are some of the best gaming experiences I’ve had in quite some time, but we are getting to the point where it’s hard not to wonder what the hold up is.
