SpellForce 3 (PC exclusive: Q3 2017): labelled as the “fantasy Age of Empires” by some, or as a ray of hope for RTS-enthusiasts by others, THQ Nordic will showcase the latest build of this RTS/RPG hybrid on its stand. Experience war-torn times in the world of Eo – command your troops, level/gear/skill up your heroes, strengthen your forces, conquer pivotal zones to expand your territory, and experience the world-changing events that will lead up to the convocation ritual.

This is the Police (PC/Mac/Linux: Now - PS4/Xbox One: March 22nd, 2017): dive into a deep story of corruption, crime and intrigue. Take the role of gritty police chief Jack Boyd, and come face to face with the ugly underbelly of Freeburg, a city spiraling down the drain. Will Jack reach his retirement with a nice nest egg, or will he end up broke... or worse?
Lock’s Quest (PC/PS4/Xbox One: April 25th, 2017): Lock is the Kingdom’s last hope to survive an oncoming invasion.

In addition to the above, two upcoming beautified game titles will grace our booth presence in Boston:
de Blob (PC: April 27th, 2017): flip, bounce and smash your way past the all-powerful I.N.K.T. Corporation to launch a revolution and save Chroma City from a future without color. Enjoy the 4-player split screen multiplayer in eight different modes on different stations.
Sine Mora EX (PC/PS4/Xbox One: Summer 2017): the extended version of the horizontal shoot'em up Sine Mora, providing a unique challenge, where time is the ultimate factor. It is a gorgeous shoot'em up that offers a Story Mode which weaves an over-the-top tale and an Arcade Mode that provides deep, satisfying gameplay to challenge genre fans. We will even bring our own PAX highscore-challenge mode to the show. Be prepared, as it is not for the faint of heart.
