The Witness is available from 1st April through to the 30th, and Assassin’s Creed Syndicate from April 15th to May 15th. For the Xbox 360 owners amongst us, and available on the Xbox One via the magic of Backwards Compatibility are Cars 2 (April 1st to 15th) and Dead Space 2 (April 16th to 30th).
The Witness – You wake up, alone, on a strange island full of puzzles that will challenge and surprise you. You don’t remember who you are, and you don’t remember how you got here, but there’s one thing you can do: explore the island in hope of discovering clues, regaining your memory, and somehow finding your way home. The Witness is a single-player game in an open world with dozens of locations to explore and over 500 puzzles. This game respects you as an intelligent player and it treats your time as precious. There’s no filler; each of those puzzles brings its own new idea into the mix. So, this is a game full of ideas.
