10 Games Coming Out In 2014 That Probably Aren’t On Your Radar, But Should Be

Destiny! Watch Dogs! Titanfall! That new Alien game! There's a whole bunch of next-gen wonderment heading our way this year and we're all very excited. And why shouldn't we be?

Or those fantastic hidden gems that you discovered completely by accident whilst idly cruising around Steam.

Indie to the extreme, it’s immediately apparent that Verdun is not a looker when it’s in motion. But so what if it can’t compare with a max-settings graphics monster when you have a game so deeply playable that you lose track of time whenever you boot it up? And not to mention one from a time in history that’s so rarely represented it feels like you’ve never even played a military shooter before.

Verdun aims to put players into the toxic mists of one of the First World War’s most ferocious battles, allowing you to experience the savage futility of trench warfare. Considering its limited budget it’s actually fairly authentic, if not a little mechanical at present. You see, technically it’s available to play right now via Steam Early Access, though as we all know, that just means you’re paying to be a beta tester. When it finally comes out polished and proper, it’s certain to be worth a look.
