While many will undoubtedly be great and well worth investing in, few of them will tickle that itch for exploration, but thankfully, there are a few exciting adventure titles on the horizon that we can&#8217;t wait to discover.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Uncharted 4: A Thief\u2019s End<\/h3>\n<p>Nathan Drake might be about to go on his last adventure, but it\u2019ll surely be packed with twists, exciting mysteries, lovable characters and brilliant action. The <em>Uncharted<\/em> series has set a high-bar for the genre, and from the gameplay demonstration we&#8217;ve seen, <em>Uncharted 4<\/em> is likely to set a new standard for the future of Naughty Dog and adventure titles in general.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ow2cL-pp6p8\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Rise of the Tomb Raider<\/h3>\n<p>The <em>Tomb Raider<\/em> reboot was a refreshing take on the life and antics of a young Lara Croft, and injected some new blood into a somewhat dying franchise. We saw Lara go from scared 20-something to an artifact-hunting heroine in the first game, and <em>Rise of the Tomb Raider<\/em> will continue that journey. Expect some interesting locales, a globe-hopping adventure and some more weird caverns and tombs this time around.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PWyhQUm42Vk\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Assassin\u2019s Creed: Victory<\/h3>\n<p>The last major <em>Assassin\u2019s Creed<\/em> release, <em>Unity<\/em>, was largely considered disaster in about every way imaginable, so Ubisoft needs to knock their next effort out of the park. This time around, <em>Victory<\/em> will see our merry band of assassins haunt the streets of Victorian London. The new setting and lessons learnt from <em>Unity<\/em> should, we&#8217;re reiterating the word &#8220;should&#8221;, provide a familiar yet exciting new adventure for the <em>Assassin&#8217;s Creed<\/em> franchise.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_70826\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Assassins-Creed-Victory-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-70826\" class=\"wp-image-70826 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Assassins-Creed-Victory-1-600x334.jpg\" alt=\"Assassin's Creed Victory\" width=\"600\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Assassins-Creed-Victory-1-600x334.jpg 600w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Assassins-Creed-Victory-1-267x150.jpg 267w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Assassins-Creed-Victory-1.jpg 1742w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-70826\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Assassin&#8217;s Creed Victory.

If this doesn\u2019t sell Wii U units nothing will. So far, everything we&#8217;ve seen about the new <em>Zelda<\/em> game points to something truly special. So it&#8217;s essentially another <em>The Legend of Zelda <\/em>game.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0e1vJrEJhBY\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">No Man\u2019s Sky<\/h3>\n<p>What we haven&#8217;t had in a while is an intriguing-looking space exploration title. In <em>No Man&#8217;s Sky<\/em>, you can explore a near-infinite number of worlds on your journey to the center of the universe, mapping out planets as you go. The game is massively multiplayer in a sense, and any world you discover will proudly display your tag. <em>No Man&#8217;s Sky<\/em> has us curious, there&#8217;s still a lot to be discovered.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nmwG6Sj1Yfg\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s our list, but it&#8217;s not necessarily the final say, nor does it include every adventure game worth looking forward to.
