Crazy Taxi (And The Offspring) Are Back In World Tour, Launching Next Year

Crazy Taxi is back in the form of Crazy Taxi: World Tour, a new game in the high-octane, Offspring-infused arcade racer-ish game, and it's launching next year on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. In Crazy Taxi: World Tour, players control Alex and his trusty taxi cab as he chases down the mysterious masked villain who, well, stole his actual beloved taxi.
Crazy Taxi: World Tour comes by way of Sega, and will task players with taking on extreme (timed) missions around the world while earning crazy amounts of money...but only if you get your passengers to where they need to go in time.
Check it out in the Crazy Taxi: World Tour reveal trailer below:
Crazy Taxi: World Tour hits Xbox Series X/S and PC sometime in 2027.
Senua Is An Action-Adventure Game In The Hellblade Universe

Senua, the protagonist of both Hellblade games, is now the titular hero in the next game. The next game from Ninja Theory, is simply called Senua and appears to be changing genres... a little bit.
"This is an out-and-out action-adventure game. It’s a bold new step for Senua, as a character, into the action-adventure space," Ninja Theory studio head Dom Matthews writes on the Xbox Wire blog.
The Hellblade games are arguably action-adventure games, so it's not yet clear exactly what this means for Senua, but Matthews insists it is different style of game, which is why it is not called Hellblade III.
Senua releases next year on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and will also be available on PlayStation 5.
Persona 4 Revival Gets February Release Date In First Gameplay Trailer

We first learned that the long-rumored Persona 4 remake from publisher Sega and developer Atlus was indeed real, and it is called Persona 4: Revival, during last year's Xbox Games Showcase in June. We got a very early look at the game then, so it's surprising that this remake is launching in February. More specifically, Persona 4 Revival hits PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on February 18.
We learned of this release date by way of the remake's first gameplay trailer that debuted during today's Xbox Games Showcase, giving us a look at our protagonist and his party fighting all manner of enemies in the world of the Midnight Channel.
Check it out for yourself in the Persona 4 Revival release date trailer below:

Here's The Release Date For Halo: Combat Evolved (And Some Footage Of Its New Prequel Missions)

Halo: Campaign Evolved is a new, visually improved retelling of the events of the original Halo game, released way back in 2001. Today, we learned it's right around the corner, and got a look at the new content Halo Studios is planning to incorporate. The game is set to launch on Xbox Series X/S, PC, and for the first time ever, PlayStation 5, on July 28.
The trailer also showed footage of some prequel missions, known as Operation : METEORITE. It's a three-mission story arc set one year before Halo: Combat Evolved takes place, and follows Master Chief and Sergeant Johnson as they strike a Covenant research vessel.
A post on Xbox Wire goes into more detail, reading, "While Halo: Campaign Evolved faithfully remakes the original Halo: Combat Evolved campaign, Operation: METEORITE gives players a chance to expand their experience with new locations, new enemy variants, more weapons from across the Halo series, and new ways to play within the Halo sandbox, all while getting to spend more time with beloved characters and witness a new event that adds to the legacy of their heroic history." This implies that we might get weapons like the battle rifle, which was introduced in Halo 2, in this remake of the first game.
The game is also available to pre-order now, The base game is $49.99 / £49.99 / €59.99, while the premium edition will cost you $69.99 / £69.99 / €79.99, adding on cosmetics, a digital story & art collection, and five days of early access. In other words, you'll be able to play the premium edition starting July 23.
