5 Best Games of November 2020


Two console launches, multiple games years in the making, Black Friday – November is looking to be a megaton month in the world of video games. See what's to come with the 5 best games of November 2020. Oh, and we won't make you click through five pages to look at the entire list.

5 Best Games of November 2020

Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and SEGA are mixing up the long-running Yakuza series with the upcoming release of Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Featuring the protagonist Ichiban Kasuga, players will utilize turn-based RPG type combat with a four-person battle team. Players can also dive into a number of side-quests (dubbed sub-stories), which can be taken up by the player to gain additional rewards and players.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon will come out for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and PC on November 10, 2020.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Set 100 years before the events of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nintendo and Koei Tecmo's Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity gives the series a hack-and-slash twist once again. The combat system, material crafting, and weapon-upgrade systems from the original Hyrule Warriors will make its return, but new to this entry are environmental puzzle solving elements that make use of the Sheikah Slate. We're especially looking forward to taking control of the four Champions, which will all be playable.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity will come out for the Nintendo Switch on November 20, 2020.

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales

The story shifts focus from Peter Parker to Miles Morales in the release of Sony Interactive Entertainment and Insomniac Games' Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. Set a year after the conclusion of the original title, Miles Morales must defend Harlem and the rest of New York City from a gang war between the Roxxon Energy Corporation and the Underground. The PlayStation 5 version of the game in particular will utilize the system's increased processing power, dedicated ray-tracing hardware, custom SSD storage, Tempest Engine and DualSense controller.

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales will come out for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on November 12, 2020.

Demon's Souls

Kicking off the launch of the PlayStation 5 is Bluepoint Games' Demon's Souls, a complete overhaul of the PlayStation 3 classic by From Software. Players will once again explore the kingdom of Boletaria, overcoming its swarms of demons and overcoming the dark being known only as the Old One. Much like other games in the Soulsborne series, players will be able to square off in PVP combat or can summon allies to take on the fight.

The game will come out for the PlayStation 5 on November 12, 2020.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Ubisoft's long-running Assassin's Creed franchise takes the series to Nordic roots with the release of Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Players will take control of the Viking raider Eivor, who gets caught up in a conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins and the Templar Order. Much like other entries in the series, players will be able to take on a number of main story missions and optional side missions. To challenge players, 25 unique enemy archetypes have been included.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla will come out on November 10, 2020 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and PC, with the PlayStation 5 version launching on November 12, 2020.

FOOTSIES Rollback Edition Review

There might be countless fighting games on the market today, but the fundamentals of each game are eternal. HiFight's FOOTSIES Rollback Edition breaks the genre down to its core, boiling things down to two directions and a single button. Is there elegance in its simplicity, or is it too dumbed down for its own good?

FOOTSIES Rollback Edition Review

While the goal of defeating your opponent might be the same as the Street Fighters and Tekkens of the world, the action of FOOTSIES Rollback Edition focuses squarely on spacing. Players are given a kick attack and a knee attack – the kick attack goes further, while the knee goes faster. Holding down the attack button gives players a special attack, and delivering a KO can be done through consecutive attacks or special attacks. There is also a block function, which can be done to prevent up to three attacks.

There's some small additions to the gameplay, but everything boils down to these mechanics. As a result, one's spacing is absolutely critical in this title. One can easily whiff their attack, giving players a chance to easily punish and win the round. One can also strategize with their toolset and bait opponents, but cheesing with repetitive attacks simply won't do the job. Though it only features a handful of moves and only one character, there's enough variance to appeal to casual players and FGC vets alike.

For those looking to get some more hands-on experience, there's a number of modes one can dive into in FOOTSIES Rollback Edition. An arcade mode with consecutive bounts has been included, along with the ability to fight against players and the CPU. A Training mode is also included, complete with Free Training, a Hit Confirm minigame, a Whiff Punish minigame, and a Tutorial. There's even a way to turn on hitboxes, frame advantages, and inputs, so one can plan out their moves to the tiniest detail.

There is also an Online Mode with GGPO support. Though there was nobody online during our time with the game, the lobby system and rollback netcode included is at the top of its class, used in the best fighting games today.

Finally, there are a decent amount of achievements to be had for those looking to be the best World Warrior of them all. Though they are fairly basic, objectives like winning online matches and clearing its Arcade Mode without continuing will encourage players to hone their skills and be the very best. Just be warned that some of these achievements are harder to unlock than others, with the hardest of the lot at an absolutely brutal 0.9% unlock rate as of this writing.

FOOTSIES Rollback Edition might not look the part, but the simplistic presentation hides some serious depth. Those looking to master the basics or need a refresher on the fundamentals will enjoy throwing down in this FGC-approved title.

This review of FOOTSIES Rollback Edition was done on the PC. The game was purchased digitally.

Just in time for Halloween, Bandai Namco and Supermassive Games have marked the launch of The Dark Pictures: Little Hope with a new trailer.

Watch Dogs Legion – Decide Skye Larsens Fate – Kill Or Upload

Watch Dogs Legion - Decide Skye Larsens Fate - Kill Or Upload
There is a choice during the story of the new Watch Dogs. This Watch Dogs Legion – Decide Skye Larsens Fate – Kill Or Upload guide breaks down the two different choices you can have, explaining the events that follow so you can make your own decision for Skye Larsens future.

During the story for Watch Dogs: Legion you will be helping another hacking group, 404, with their own special contracts. The contracts involve looking deeper into Skye Larsen and her current secret project. There's a few contracts here and a number of missions that provide greater insight into Skye Larsen as a person or as a monster, depending on your perspective. Obviously there are spoilers ahead, with the outcome of each decision featured below.

Decide Skye Larsens Fate – Kill Or Upload

If You Choose Kill
If you want to kill Skye Larsen, you will need to interact with the console on your right – as you look towards Skye. The left console is Upload, the other choice. If you choose to kill Skye Larson, she begs for her life as she dwindles away. She does indeed die and Nowt and Bagley both seem to agree with your decision.

As you attempt to leave the lab, you will be ambushed by a number of enemy troops. They are strong and congested, so make sure to sit back and let them come to you – picking them off as they approach one by one. This represents the end of the 404 mission chain.

If You Choose Upload
Skye will still die, but she will say her work is just beginning. Nowt will be extremely upset with you over this decision. You say you guys can still work together, and she says eff off and cuts communication with you. After a minute or so, she contacts you again and says you can user her terminals for jobs but she is going away.

So far this hasn't come back to bite me, I will update if it does.
