Overview
Description

Inversion thrusts players into a near‑future city under siege by the alien Lutadore, wielding gravity‑controlling weapons that turn the battlefield into a chaotic, shifting arena. As Davis Russell or Leo Delgado, you fight through zero‑gravity zones and vector‑shifted streets to rescue a missing child and uncover the mystery behind the anomalies. The game features a revolutionary gravity manipulation engine, the Grappler weapon, and both single‑player and cooperative campaigns. Available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC, Inversion blends fast‑paced third‑person shooting with innovative physics‑based gameplay for up to four players.

Vanquish thrusts players into a futuristic battlefield as Sam Gideon, an American soldier equipped with the Augmented Reaction Suit. Harness AR mode to slow time and Boost to dash across the arena, delivering fast‑paced, precise shooting action. Set against a war‑torn space colony, the game blends intense gunplay, hand‑to‑hand combat, and kinetic movement across diverse locations like space cruisers and transforming battle robots, offering a thrilling sci‑fi experience.
