‘The Order: 1886’ Trailer Hijacks a Blimp

Published

Games with way more polygons and higher resolutions can be exciting, but it’s seeing the beginning of promising new franchises that I look forward to the most with each new console cycle. There’s a lot of experimentation in that first year after the consoles drop, as developers get familiar with the new tech and see what works and what doesn’t.

Normally, year two is where developers start to realize that potential, and I have a feeling The Order: 1886 could be the first game that really sells next-gen. Hopefully it doesn’t disappoint.

The Order: 1886 hits the PS4 on February 20th.
