Racing game from the studio Ghost games and already the 24th installation in the series Need for speed. The developers promise a fleet of 127 cars from 33 concerns, including Ferrari, which disappeared from Payback due to legal delays with licensing.

You have to ride around Palm City and its picturesque surroundings, participating in illegal races and escaping from the police. Winning races brings a reputation and cash, which can then be spent on improving a car. If the amount of money in the account depends on how stylish and fast your iron horse will be, then the attitude of the policemen depends on the level of reputation: the higher it is, the more aggressive law enforcement officers will try to press you to your nail.

IN Heat there will be no loot boxes, but EA promises cosmetic microtransactions and accelerators of progress, allowing you to unlock new content much faster. In other words, you can pay in Heatso as not to play it.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

Release Date: November 15
Platform: PS4, XBO, PC
Developer: Respawn


The Star Wars series is pretty stormy now, so all hope is so far only for the authors Titanfall and Apex legends from studio Respawn. Events Fallen order unfold a few years after the third episode “Revenge of the Sith“. We take on the role of Padawan Cal Kestis, who managed to survive after the landmark “Order 66” and is now on the run from the Galactic Empire. Kestis will not only have to fight for his life, trying not to get caught by some cool inquisitor, but along the way in every way to harm the Empire as part of a group of extremists So Guerrera.

The game is somewhat reminiscent of Uncharted – here the hero also constantly flees somewhere, climbs along sheer walls and fights with crowds of identical enemies. Only if Nate got out of trouble with machine guns and pistols did Kestis rely on Jedi power and a light saber.


Shenmue 3

Release Date: November 19
Platform: PS4, PC
Developer: Neilo, Ys Net


Frankly, after so many years of waiting, a few carry-overs, and a mountain of developer promises, Shenmue 3 if you wait, then with great apprehension. Designer Vision YU Suzuki could just be out of date during this time.

But be that as it may, Shenmue 3 continues the story of karateka Ryu Hazuki, selflessly trying to find his father’s killer, relying on his skill to expertly beat people with his feet. The search leads Hazuki-san to the beautiful Guilin County in China, where he meets the girl Lin Shenhua, whom he has repeatedly seen in his dreams. It becomes clear that the fate of the heroes is inextricably linked and now they must share this adventure together.


Sniper: Ghost Warrior Contracts

Release Date: November 22
Platform: PS4, PC, XBO
Developer: CI Games


The game takes place in the harsh regions of Siberia, and the players assume the role of a sniper mercenary, who has to fulfill several important orders to eliminate high-level goals.

Despite the vast arsenal of high-tech weapons and various ingenious devices such as augmented reality masks and drones for reconnaissance, the successful completion of each task primarily depends on proper tactical planning and the ability to calculate your actions ahead.

Besides plausible ballistics, Contracts also boasts realism. Accurate hits on opponents not only send them to the forefathers on horseback on large-caliber cartridges, but they are also capable of literally tearing them to shreds, tearing off limbs and turning bodies into bloody spray.
