We are now well into 2015, and if you don’t have a current-gen console already it is time for you to upgrade.
“But MyGaming, which console should I buy?” you ask.
Well, the PS4 seems to be the most powerful, with the Xbox One a close second. The Nintendo Wii U does not get much love locally, but it’s no 486.
The other hook which console gamers love to talk about is exclusives – a determining factor in which unit gamers buy.
With this in mind, let us look at the best exclusive games on the three platforms in 2015.
PlayStation 4
Bloodborne
The birth mother of the Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls franchise has a new instalment on the way, Bloodborne. Set in a gothic world, the player needs to explore the city and outskirts of Yharnam as he fights creatures of the plague.
Until Dawn
When you die in Until Dawn you are out for the rest of the game – and trust me when I say that there are plenty of ways to die.
This survival horror pits you against a madman in a desolated mountain cottage, he wants to kill you, and you and your friends need to do whatever it takes to survive.
Street Fighter V
Cross-platform play between PS4 and PC, Unreal Engine 4 visuals, and a player roster to rival all fighting games – Street Fighter V is going to be one of the biggest fighting games released in 2015.
No Man’s Sky
A galaxy with an infinite amount of procedurally-generated worlds to explore, No Man’s Sky is the next step in intergalactic exploration games.
Hellblade
Not much is known about Hellblade, but I am sold on it given that the minds behind the highly-acclaimed Heavenly Sword are working on this.
Rime
Rime has been in the works for a while, but it is nearly time to experience the story of a boy who must use his wits and ingenuity to escape from a terrible curse.
Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End
How can anyone dislike the Uncharted series? It has been the pinnacle of game design since its world debut back in 2007. Now it is time to experience it on the PS4.
Xbox One
Ori and the Blind Forest
By far one of the best indie games of the year, Ori and the Blind Forest merges spectacular visuals with 2D side scrolling as you explore a forest as the abandoned child of Kuro.
Fable Legends
Fable is said to make its triumphant return this year in Fable Legends. Join 4 players as you take on an evil villain in a beautiful world powered by the Xbox One.
Forza Motorsport 6
Forza Motorsport has always been on the forefront of racing games with its vast array of cars and a solid driving experience.
Inside
Inside is the second title from the studio that brought you the highly acclaimed Limbo.
Quantum Break
The time-amplified gameplay of Quantum Break is what makes it unique. Think about freezing time to run behind enemies at any moment during combat before taking them out.
Rise of the Tomb Raider
After much debate and arguing, the latest Tomb Raider title will come to the Xbox One in 2015.
Halo 5: Guardians
We have played the beta and we know it looks great. Now we all need to wait a bit longer to experience the single-player story of one of the best sci-fi shooters in the industry.
Wii U
Mario Party 10
The mother of party games returns as Mario Party 10 releases on the Wii U. 26 new mini-games on top of the traditional ones, plus full gamepad and Wii Remote supports for all 4 players.
Splatoon
Fast-paced shooting, vibrant paint guns, and a unique mix of team-based combat with a touch of Unfinished Swan. Splatoon is a bold move that Nintendo has never made before.
Mario Maker
Ever looked at a level on the traditional Mario Bros. and thought to yourself: “I could make it so much better”. Well, now you can thanks to Mario Maker.
Xenoblade Chronicles X
With the success of the original Xenoblade Chronicles on the Nintendo Wii, Nintendo jumped on the chance to create a sequel in all its glory.
Devil’s Third
An intense multiplayer shooter is coming to the Wii U in the form of Devil’s Third. Over-the-top weaponry, costumes, and massive levels to fight it all out on.
Yoshi’s Wooly World
After the success of Kirby’s Yarn Adventure, Nintendo decided to give Yoshi the same treatment. You control Yoshi through spectacular levels created entirely out of yarn.
The Legend of Zelda
With every Nintendo platform comes a new Zelda entry. The Wii U probably has the most ambitious Zelda title in development to date. For the first time ever you will be able to explore a massive open world either on foot or by horse.
