There aren’t too many fields that need to be more innovative than video games. Every year it seems like a new console, a new graphics card, or a new feature comes out that blurs the line between a video game and a virtual world. Games need to be constantly pushing the cutting edge to satisfy gamers because if they don’t those gamers are going to do something else. 

The gaming industry benefits from constant innovation, and many gamers are looking at what is coming next. The trends and features that we have seen so far look exciting for sure. Let’s see just how well they will make games more interesting.

Bitcoin Games

Bitcoin-based Casino gaming has a lot of benefits due to how it works. The payments are instant, secured through blockchain, and can all be done through a crypto wallet. Cryptocurrencies have changed the entire landscape of casinos by simplifying the process of becoming a player, so users don’t need to pay a massive buy-in just to play their favorite games!

Bitcoin casino games attract players because they are easy. Players can play their favorite casino games right from their couch. Online casino games are more like video games than their physical casino game counterparts. 

The biggest benefit is the transparency of the entire process. The house might always win, but at least you can see why. The payments and the winnings are transparently seen by everyone. Then when you get your winnings, you can see the money traveling to your account. That can be a massive source of relief because you don’t need to wait like you would in a physical casino.

Virtual Reality Games

VR has always been something that has changed the landscape of video games. Allowing players the ability to actually the gaming world with their hands? It is immersive and fun for sure. Plus, it benefits a lot of game genres. 

For example, a great many puzzle games have been using VR to improve how the puzzle-solving process works. While you traditionally could move and rotate a puzzle in various games, at the end of the day you were always looking at it on a screen. You were seeing the puzzle in a 2-D environment.

But in VR, it is all 3-D. You can touch the puzzle with your hands, move it around, and see it from different angles. These extra options will allow you to come to the solution, your way.

The New GTA 6 

Dealing with the chaos of being a criminal in various locations is nothing new for players who have played Grand Theft Auto games. But the sixth installment in the franchise might be different in the way you play. There have been news reports that a patented technology developed by a former Rockstar Games expert in AI will change the game for good. 

The patent for “System and Method for Virtual Character Locomotion,” is designed to focus on providing dynamic and realistic animations for characters and NPCs in the game. Basically how this works, is that the character movements have building blocks that can be changed and combined depending on the scenario.

So when characters are injured, tired, or walking in the rain, you will see dynamic and immersive animations that will match the situation the characters find themselves in. For those gamers who love to be utterly immersed in a video game world, little details like this are good things to hear.

The Nemesis System In Wonder Woman

The new Wonder Woman video game announcement shocked the world for many reasons. Not only are many superhero fans going to get to play as the Amazon Princess, but they also get to see the return of the nemesis system from the Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War Middle Earth games.

The nemesis system had enemies who evolved independently of the player. The Orcs in the game would fight, scheme, host events, and more to become more powerful. The player could also intervene in these schemes. Additionally, when an Orc defeated you in combat, he would become a character with a name and certain traits. This gave you a set of rivals through the games and allowed you to become more connected with the world.

Seeing a Wonder Woman game take the nemesis system is exciting for many fans. They want to see how Monolith interprets it, and that is going to be extremely innovative. We might even see more games adopting the system in the future.

The Future Of Gaming Is Bright!

With all these changes, the future of gaming has never looked better. The world of technology will keep marching forward, challenging games and game designers in bold new ways. This means all of the players will be the ones who benefit from some amazing video games!
