Action-Packed Hack and Slash games for Xbox One
When you’re coming off the heels of a bad day and are craving a sweet release for all that pent-up anger and frustration, all you need to do is load up a hack and slash game on your Xbox One. Not sure which titles to buy? Here are some great options to choose from that are available on Amazon.
Devil May Cry 5
Dante is back! DMC is known for its fast-paced action and this one won’t disappoint fans who are looking for more of the same. Though it’s a part of the DMC series, the game is slightly different from its previous versions as it comes with fewer puzzles and focuses more on the action. You get to fight cool monsters and evil bosses across the red grave city, with graphics that really bring these characters to life. One of the best things about DMC 5 is that even if you have not played any of the previous games in the franchise, you can still opt for this without feeling lost in the story. Additionally, if you want to know more about the previous stories, you can get all the information from the recap menu. Keep in mind that Nero, along with Dante, is really fun to play. His robotic arm definitely adds more to the gameplay. However, without his arm, Nero is a bit difficult to control as his abilities deplete a bit. There is also a new character, V, in the game who brings a different perspective to the action-packed gameplay.
Devil May Cry: Definitive Edition
As mentioned above, DMC never fails to bring an action-packed game that keeps audiences hooked. You can enjoy a great hack and slash gaming experience with HD graphics in 60fps here. The package includes all of the previously released DLC for the game such as Vergil’s Downfall. The bloody palace mode is great! You can play as Dante’s twin brother, Vergil, against waves of enemies and you can enjoy that sense of challenge that you’ve always wanted from this game. Hardcore DMC players can play in the Hardcore Mode, Must Style Mode and God Must Die Mode to get the most out of their favourite characters. All in all, the game is full of action!.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
Are you kidding? Who does not want to be a Jedi? You can fulfil that lifelong dream of becoming a Jedi with this one. If you are a Star Wars fan, you are definitely going to identify the iconic places, weapons, enemies and the lightsabers, which should really enhance the gameplay for you. There are ancient forests, windswept rock faces and haunted jungles for you to explore. Do keep in mind that the game follows the events of ‘Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith’. You are on a mission to rebuild the Jedi order and for that, you must piece together your past to complete your training and master the lightsaber.
Darksiders II – Deathinitive Edition
With this game, you get to become the most feared of the legendary four horsemen, Death. From ‘Joe Mad’, this game is unlike anything you have experienced before. The environment of the game brings puzzles that will make you scratch your head before realizing the solution is right in front of you.
Skills, armours and the weapons are upgradeable, making the game a bit more fun no matter what level you’re playing at. You can explore the vast world it offers, apart from taking your pick of several other side missions that should make for several hours of side play. Death is an agile character and is capable of incredible acrobatic fighting. With the DLCs, you can enjoy the game for well over 30 hours. A lot of small details are reworked and improved in this edition, and most fans of the game say that this has even better gameplay than the previous version.
