October is a huge month for gaming. Many highly anticipated games will release this month, and the gaming community will have a blast with the latest releases. It may be the biggest month in gaming since the next gen consoles, which released in the 2013, and the games set to release won’t disappoint fans.

Super Smash Bros, October 3^rd

The world will finally get its portable version of Super Smash Bros, a popular crossover fighting game involving characters from successful franchises like Mario, Link, Pikachu, Fox, and Kirby. It’s already topped the Japanese software charts, and it should be a great game for everybody.

Alien: Isolation, October 7^th

Alien Isolation is a highly anticipated game where players play as Amanda Ripley, the daughter of the series protagonist Ellen Ripley. She was in hyper sleep for fifty-seven years, and she finally awakens to find out what happened to her mother. It will be an interesting game, with similar combat scenarios as the original Alien games in the series.

DriveClub, October 7^th

This one is for the gamers who love racing games. DriveClub will have gorgeous racing, with incredible graphics and realistic gameplay. There are tons of interesting cars that the player will gain access to and it should be good competition for similar games like Forza. It’ll hopefully have a great online gaming system that’ll be highly competitive and fun for everybody.

Borderlands: The Pre Sequel, October 14^th

This may be the most anticipated game of the month. It was revealed as a secret during last years Game of the Year Awards in December, and many fans went crazy over the announcement. It was also one of the first games announced for the next gen consoles. Borderlands: The Pre Sequel takes place between the first two Borderlands games. The main storyline focuses around helping the antagonist from Borderlands 2, Handsome Jack, before he is a villain. The quests should be interesting, especially since you’re working with a soon to be villain for the first time in an already original series.

The Evil Within, October 14^th

Shinji Mikami is the one of the best companies when it comes to making horror games. It made Resident Evil and Dino Crisis, so it’ll be a very fun and memorable game. It begins with a police officer investigating a gruesome mass murder case until he is knocked unconscious. He wakes up in a world with frightening experiments and evil monsters. The Evil Within mainly focuses on the horror aspect of gaming, and knowing Shinji Mikami, it’ll have a unique gameplay system that’ll probably scare many people.

October has many great games in store, and many of the years most anticipated games will finally release. The world of gaming will be wild, and the gamers will be busy for a long time. If you’re contemplating on getting a next gen console, this month would be the time to do it.
