Article The Games Bi-Weekly 15-28 September

Hey, everyone, this is [member='AzurAurora'] with a brand new bi-weekly series. Seeing as it is hard to keep up with all the big game releases, I will be helping out a hand by telling you what will be coming out in the next two weeks.

Please be aware that release dates can differ between regions, but the first release date determines if it makes a list. If your region is not on the list, this time, it is because it already has been released. Lucky you! This list will include mostly the big AAA-games that will be released. Like stuff from Ubisoft, Sony, Nintendo, Square Enix, EA, Microsoft, etc. Smaller games tend to fall off the radar, but I will try to catch them on my way. I will always include the consoles the game will be released on, the dates and if I can a trailer or a link to the trailer.

The first game on the list is Pro Evolution Soccer 2017 or PES 2017. This Football or Soccer game has been around for ages and debates still spark up about which football game is the better one, FIFA or PES. PES has been crowned the better one last year to everyone's surprise. Will this year be different? Personally I think that Mario Strikers Football was the best footie ever, but anyway. PES 2017 will be released on the 15th of September 2016 in Europe and Japan on the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and the Xbox One. Get ready for the whistle, guys!

Next on the list is ReCore. ReCore is made by the spiritual father of the Mega Men-series, Keji Inafune, and the makers of Metroid Prime. Play as Joule to save the planet Far Eden of the CoreBots, robots that were made to help humanity but turned hostile. However, the only help you get is from the CoreBots Mack, Seth, and Duncan. Find the reason and save Far Eden with Joule and the CoreBots. ReCore is a Xbox One exclusive and will be released on the 15th for Japan and the 16th of September 2016 in Europe. Time to rumble with robots.

Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past will be released on the same day as ReCore. This game is a remake of the original Dragon Quest VII: Warriors of Eden that was released in 2000 for the PlayStation. Since then it has been remade for the Nintendo 3DS. It has already been on the Japanese market since 2013 and it will be released in North America, Europe, and Australia. Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past will be released exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS on September 16, 2016, for North America and Europe, and 17 September for Australia. Get the Fragments of the Past and solve the mystery.

NBA 2K17 has a weird name but is a much-beloved sports game. This year many changes were made to the game and many new things were added, such a national teams, the EuroLeague for the European players. You can even create your own player in the MyCareer mode, go from nobody to God of the Court. Everyone can enjoy NBA 2K17 at the same time on September 20, 2016, for the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Forza Horizon 3 is racing into the stores next week. The racing game to make a man jealous of fictional characters. At the start of the game there are over 350 cars available and not only that, but the map is twice as big as that of Forza Horizon 2. You are no longer a participant in the Horizon Festival but now the director and it your job to make it the best festival ever.

Sonic and the crew are back in Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice. Fight against Dr. Eggman and robot D-Fekt to save the neighboring islands from being frozen to the core or burned to a crisp. In this game with Sonic, Knuckles, Tails, Amy and Sticks you are responsible for stopping Dr. Eggman. It wouldn't be the first time either... Sonic Boom: Fire and Ice is a Nintendo 3DS exclusive and will be released in North America on September 27, in Europe on September 30, Australia will get it on the first of October and Japan will have to settle for the 27th of October 2016. Gotta go fast!

And lastly, FIFA 17 will join the lineup for this week's list. FIFA 17 includes a Career Mode called The Journey, the J.League Cup, and the J1 League, as well as 18 Brazilian clubs (two signed a deal with Konami, the traitors). Enough to thoroughly enjoy yourself with some football (or Soccer). FIFA 17 will be released on the 27th of September on the PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The rest of the world will be able to get it on the 29th of September.
