Siege, South Park: The Fractured but Whole, and Trials Fusion: Awesome Level MAX.June 15, 2015, 3:00 PMOrpheum Theater, Los AngelesThe Ubisoft conference opened up with one of the first big surprises of the show. Last year's South Park: The Stick of Truth is getting a full-fledged sequel. Called South Park: The Fractured but Whole, it follows not long after the original game. Runescape players once again take control of the New Kid, but this time, the plot promises to delve deeper into his origins. Rather than being based on fantasy stories, The Fractured but Whole is a take on superhero stories. Involving the ridiculous superhero alternate identities of the South Park kids, the new game seems to share the same irreverent humor as the original. The developer for this game will be Ubisoft San Francisco rather than Obsidian Runescape games, but Matt Stone and Trey Park are both returning to lend their voice work and trademark humor to the game.A new IP was showcased, For Honor, which looks like it's one part Chivalry and one part MOBA. Runescape players can choose one of several clans of ancient warriors, ranging from samurais to Vikings to knights. Four Runescape players on each side hop into battle against one another in an attempt to overtake their foes, while countless uncontrolled AI Runescape players clash into each other on the field of battle. Combat looks to be slow and weighty. What we saw in the demonstration emphasized the idea that RS 3 Gold wild swings will just get you killed. Knocking the opponent off-balance or tricking them into a foolish attack seems far more important than pure twitch skills.The next two things shown were expansion packs for existing Runescape games. The Crew is getting a new updated called The Crew: Wild Run. As you'd expect, Wild Run focuses on off-road travel. It aims to add new content to the game, including monster trucks, off-road racing, and a general focus on the less-traveled parts of the American landscape. The other expansion pack is for Trials Fusion. Dubbed Trials Fusion: Awesome Level MAX, it looks to be very much in the vein of Far Cry: Blood Dragon. The trailer showed �� and yes, you're reading this correctly �� a ninja cat riding a fire-breathing unicorn while firing golden handguns. No real gameplay footage was shown, but you can probably guess how you'll feel about the game based on the fire-breathing unicorn part. The new Trackmania Turbo was also shown, with a larger selection of track customization options, a huge selection of pre-built tracks, and the ability to randomly generate a stretch of track on which to race.After that, we got another look at Tom Clancy's The Division. Dark Zones are a mixed PvP and PvE area of the game. They represent a high-risk, high-reward gambit. Dark Zones are walled-off sections of the city that Runescape players must willingly enter. Once they do, they find themselves in a free-for-all.
