The biggest name of the bunch is “Mass Effect Legendary Edition,” which packs all three “Mass Effect” titles — and their respective DLC add-ons — in one collection. Granted, this isn’t sporting huge graphical improvements or anything like that, but the visuals have been updated somewhat and it’s a convenient way to check out one of Bioware’s most popular series or revisit it if you’ve already played through the whole thing. While the visuals may not have gotten an immense overhaul, some of the behind-the-scenes elements have, meaning you can play through the games with a little less old-school jank and a bit more modern polish.
“Biomutant” (via THQ Nordic) is something of a different beast, as it’s an open-world action RPG with kung fu fantasy stylings and a mixture of melee and gun-based combat. Players guide your creature through the hostile world as a plague spreads through it and various factions begin fighting for control.
Being open-world there’s an emphasis on exploration (when you’re not fighting for your life) throughout a number of underground bunkers, mountains, and other forms of wilderness. Your combat repertoire will also expand as you play, with more moves and forms being added as you progress and find new masters dotted throughout the world.
