Recently we saw the cinematic announcement trailer for the sequel to the 2011 video game Homefront, which is titled Homefront: The Revolution. The original was developed by Kaos Studios and published by THQ before the latter went under, leaving the property to be acquired by Crytek and Deep Silver, who tasked Crytek UK with making the sequel.

As expected, the game was at E3 2014. A gameplay demo for Revolution was presented at the convention, and it looks surprisingly good in its new hands. This could be one to keep an eye on, but whether or not the final product will win players over remains to be seen. Be sure to head below to watch the gameplay demo.

A big new Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor gameplay demo was brought to E3 2014, exploring more of the environment, the abilities of the part-Wraith ranger named Talion you play as, and the many choices in fighting the enemy you have.

The game comes from developer Monolith Productions and publisher Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment, and is set between the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

You can check out the new gameplay demo below.

One of the more visually attractive upcoming next-gen (or current-gen, depending on who you ask) titles is Sunset Overdrive, an over-the-top third-person action game bursting with lots of vivid colors. We saw a gameplay video not too long ago, and now a new video with an entertaining cinematic and some gameplay has come out of E3 2014.

The game comes from Insomniac Games, the makers of the PlayStation exclusive franchises Spyro the Dragon, Ratchet & Clank, and Resistance, who have jumped to the other team with this new Xbox One exclusive.

The game is set in 2027, when a powerful new energy drink has turned consumers into mutants, leaving an employee of the company who released the drink to clean up the mess.

You can see the new Sunset Overdrive cinematic and gameplay footage below.

Another standout from Nintendo’s digital presentation at E3 2014 was a game titled Yoshi’s Woolly World, and upcoming side-scrolling adventure for the Wii U.

The game, which is something of a spiritual successor to Kirby’s Epic Yarn, takes the Yoshi character and gives him and his world a complete yarn makeover, transforming it into a world that looks like it was hand-knitted by Etsy’s finest craftmasters.

You can see a trailer for Yoshi’s Woolly World as well as the developers’ story behind the game below.

Back in December we were first introduced to one of the most ambitious video game projects ever, No Man’s Sky, an open-universe procedural exploration game that starts every player on a different planet an let’s you go wherever you want to, with an endless amount of places to visit—so many places that of everyone playing you could be the first one to discover certain planets or species or landmarks (attaching your name to it as the discoverer for other visitors to see), and even crossing paths with other explorers is a rare occurrence.

The game sounded so ambitious in fact, it seemed way too good to be true. Especially with only a few people working on it! But the small team at Hello Games (they’re up from four in December to a whopping ten employees now) was in attendance at E3 2014, and announced that the game would be coming to consoles first on Sony’s PlayStation 4. They also brought with them some new gameplay trailers for us to watch in awe, hoping the game will be everything it’s said to be.

You can check out the new No Man’s Sky gameplay trailers below, as well as a video of Hello Games founder Sean Murray talking about the game.
