10 Hugely Promising Upcoming Video Games You Won't Want To Miss
2. STEEP
What Is It?
Ubisoft's foray into the extreme sports genre - one that although it may be more 1080' Snowboarding than SSX, should still provide a heady dose of downhill thrills and literal chills.
Why Should I Care?
Like Aragami being the spiritual sequel to Tenchu, STEEP feels like a continuation of where every snowboarding sim left off after the 2000s, modernising the idea of physics-based 'boarding with that of a constantly connected world.
You'll venture across the peaks and choose from either skiing, snowboarding, paragliding and wingsuiting, before aiming to set the best times on slopes or distance jumped on custom-appointed positions. If it all comes together well, this could the perfect drop-in, drop-out multiplayer experience of 2016 - almost like a more sub-temperature version of Skate.
But, erm, EA? If you guys could release SSX Tricky 2... that'd be just grand.
