Square Enix announces PAX East 2014 lineup

Square Enix have announced its lineup for this year’s Penny Arcade Expo East (PAX East) – an annual video-game festival that allows the gaming community to interact with those in the industry, and get to grips with some of the latest game releases.

Taking place in Boston from April 11 to April 13, Square Enix’s booth will feature three new and upcoming titles that players will be able to preview and play:

Hitman GO – Agent 47 makes his mobile debut in this turn-based strategy spin on the popular Hitman franchise. This latest outing will replace the realistic setting of previous games with stylish ‘diorama style’ set-pieces whilst retaining the essence of the original series.

Murdered: Soul Suspect – An action-adventure, sleuth ’em up where you play as Ronan O’Connor, a detective who returns from the grave in spirit form to solve the mystery of his own untimely murder. Murdered: Soul Suspect will be available on PC, as well as current/next-gen consoles.

NOSGOTH – Developed by Psyonix, Nosgoth is a free-to-play, team-based, third-person PvP game that pits humans against vampires in action-packed combat. Players can choose between both factions, each with their own fighting styles. Humans specialize in long-range weaponry and traps to defeat their undead foes, whereas the Vampires prefer to get up close and personal with savage, inhuman melee attacks.

If that wasn’t enough, Square Enix will also be hosting two panels that will give fans the opportunity to converse with the minds behind Murdered: Soul Suspect and NOSGOTH. Full details can be found below:
