Hopefully you've had a chance to watch our interview with Assassin's Creed Unity Producer, Leslie Phord-Toy from E3 2014. Alongside of that we got to see some eyes on with a co-op demo that was essentially the same as the E3 counterpart. You can watch that below.
The release of Sniper Elite 3 may just be around the corner, but that didn't stop 505 Games from showing off the co-op modes at E3. I got a hands on, partnered with Co-Optimus Managing Editor Nick Puleo, and we were able take on a small part of the campaign.

We're still churning through the hours of content and video from E3 2014, but we couldn't wait to bring you this interview.

We all know the Dark Knight Detective is taking his uniquely painful sense of justice into the cosmos in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. Guess he got tired of busting skulls down here on terra firma and decided he needed to knee-drop thugs in outer space.

By now you should be familiar with The Division’s gameplay demo presented during the Microsoft Media Briefing at E3. During the demo, players worked together to capture and establish a base of operations in the barren wasteland that once was New York City.
