9. Scalebound

Platinum GamesPlatinum GamesSecond on our list is another Japanese developed action game €“ but, this one is an Xbox One exclusive, and more importantly - its full of dragons. Developed by action veterans Platinum Games, and helmed by Devil May Cry and Resident Evil 2 creator Hideki Kamiya, Scalebound seemingly came out of nowhere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqYJv3OIVxA While relatively little is known about the game so far, the trailer showed a Dante lookalike clad in thick armour doing battle with screen filling dragons. Knowing its creators and judging by what was shown in the trailer, the game looks to combine a mix of DMC inspired action with the option to ride and battle on the back of the dragon. Yes,you read that correctly - you can ride a freaking dragon. While solid gameplay info is still being kept under wraps, so far Scalebound looks to be just as insane of a thrill ride as anything that the Bayonetta creators have done to date. If you always thought Monster Hunter would be better if you could put a saddle on the beasts you were slaying, then this is definitely the game for you.
