2013 could have ended right now and we would’ve been happy with the games that have come out. Even we can hardly believe that there are more than just a handful of insane games that are yet to come out.
Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Blacklist
This game, unlike its ones allows players to use quick bursts of fluid run-and-gun action to compliment Sam’s preternatural agility. The previous games in this series put major emphasis on stealthily sneaking around in the dark and getting to the enemy. This game however proves to be some full on, hard core action.

WWE 2K14
WWE has always had gaming enthusiasts wanting more. With more and more superstars joining each year, gamers constantly want the latest developments. This would be the first year that 2K Sports are developing this game after taking over from THQ. And this change has left many people wondering how good this game would turn out, but seriously, you really can’t go wrong with a bunch of guys beating the snot outta each other.

Need For Speed: Rivals
‘Rivals’ is an open world racing video game and is the 20th installment of the NFS series, which has been a huge hit on both gaming consoles and PC’s. Swedish games developers, Ghost Games are reportedly having the studio focus on game development using the Frostbite game engine. NFS has never really disappointed us, and we highly doubt it will.

Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag
All we know that there is a new team working on this edition of the game, no one really knows who. Assassin’s Creed 4 will take place in 1715 in the Caribbean. Assassin’s Creed 4 features a new protagonist, Edward Kenway, grandfather of Connor and father of Haytham Kenway of Assassin’s Creed 3. There you have it, three generations of some nice ass-kicking.

Battlefield 4
Bringing things to a whole new level, Battlefield 4 was designed using the new Frostbite 3 engine which makes gameplay seem like it was taken straight from a movie shoot. Giving the Call of Duty stiff competition, the game’s online competitive mode features landscape-altering destruction.

Watch Dogs
After making quite a mark for itself at E3 last year, Ubisoft puts players in the shoes of a hacker who is framed by a media mogul for murder. The protagonist is in a mission to take down this media mogul in a vast open city, with abilities to hack into the central network running through the city. Thrill, Suspense, Action: Guaranteed

Batman Arkham Origins

FIFA 14
Getting as close as possible to the real thing, EA Sports are coming out with major tweaks and improved game engine to give gamers life-like gameplay. The integration of 3D crowds is an added bonus, which makes the game feel more substantial and noticeable than ever before and is by far the best installment yet. This is as close as you can get to playing football, without actually kicking one.
Formats: PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One
Released: 25th September, 2013
Call of Duty: Ghosts
By far one of the best FPS’ we have ever come across. The COD series has been a major success across the world, although, evidence from E3 suggest that this game may be a little more on the subtle side. Set 10 years after the fall of the USA as a superpower, gamers join several spec ops soldiers as they go through the wreckage of the West.

Release date: 5th November 2013
Grand Theft Auto V
Most probably the biggest game to come out this year, GTA V is the most ambitious game Rockstar have attempted till date. The game is set in a massive open world map basted in Los Angeles. The action is split up between three protagonists who get together for multiple thefts. There’s a lot of vehicles, weapons, missions, chases, characters etc. This game is nothing short of an epic.
