Gaming fans are about to experience the best week of 2020, so far as the big and most anticipated games like Ori and the Will of the Wisps are finally rolling out in different platforms, plus new and action-packed trailers also being released, including that of Nioh 2 and Fallout 76: Wastelanders.

A Beautiful Sequel

Perhaps one of the most awaited titles coming to Xbox One and PC is Ori and the Will of the Wisps, the sequel to the beloved Ori and the Blind Forest that first launched on March 2015.

While the sequel brings back the enchanting graphics and the exciting gameplay of the first title, Ori and the Will of the Wisps include new features, such as upgrading to an auto-save feature in exchange for the manual checkpoints of the first game.

The new title also allows players to purchase powers by exchanging them with collectible shards--an update from the linear upgrades of Ori and the Blind Forest.

The achievements have also been revealed ahead of its launch date, which includes 37 achievements and a total of 1000 gamerscores.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps will be bringing the action out of the forest and into your PC and Xbox One this Mar. 11. The game will also be available on Game Pass on its launch date as per Gamespot.

Journey to the Sengoku Period

Up next is another highly anticipated title from another popular and beloved franchise that started in 2017, Nioh. This game will appeal to fans of action-RPG titles like Bloodborne and Dark Souls, where you control an Irishman by the name of William, who was trained to slay monsters, samurai-style.

Nioh 2, actually a prequel, brings back the same fast-paced, brutal combat and vast customization options from the first title. But, instead of playing William, players will create their own custom character.

Nioh 2 will be available on PS4 on Mar. 12. However, it will also be available on PC but will be released much later this year.

Besides the arrival of the prequel, PC players can also pick up the Complete Edition of Nioh for 70% off at Steam until Mar. 9 only. The Edition includes three of Nioh's story expansions: Defiant Honor, Dragon of the North, and Bloodshed's End.
