The 14 best video games of E3 2018

An expansive third-person action game set on foreign planets, Anthem rides the coattails of Destiny, The Division and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Wildlands, and promises wide multiplayer support that will continue long after it launches . At first glance it looks a lot like Destiny, with four players in mech exosuits blasting away at space creatures with rifles, pulse cannons, grenades and missiles. In combat, Anthem recalls Titanfall, as you transition from hovering, to dodging, landing, sprinting and swimming, experimenting with the weighty arsenal of weapons. Developer BioWare is known for great stories: we've seen none of that aspect of Anthem yet, but it feels great to play. The trailer suggests a fun, colourful, 1980s-inspired take on cyberpunk, but in reality Cyberpunk 2077 is gritty, featuring a lot of nudity, violence, swearing and drugs.
