PS5: 10 Iconic PlayStation Franchises Sony Needs To Revive
10. The Order 1886
For all of its faults, The Order 1886 was a gorgeous and fairly competent third person shooter. It took on a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen "they walk among us" fantasy narrative that was admittedly a bit cliched yet still extremely tantalising. So what went wrong?
Well, with a runtime of a little over six hours (at a push) and a heavy focus on cutscenes for chapters, players weren't happy with paying AAA prices for it.
In retrospect (and that you can get it for a fiver now), there's something in here to expand on. Y'know, provided Ready at Dawn let us play it this time.
Galahad's been excommunicated, so perhaps let us explore more of alternative Victorian era London. New guns, gadgets and gorgeous graphics would help pull some credibility back to the ill-fated title.
As I said, the story may have followed generic beats, but consider that a seed sown to branch off into new territories. Follow 2018's God of War reimagining: less QTEs, more of a focus on combat and the world around us.
Just don't let it be the final Order.
