Story-driven games are among the richest and most emotive game genres.
Now that we’ve brought it up, getting your game published on both consoles could be equally difficult.
You know, Xbox and Playstation are always fighting for those sweet, sweet, exclusives.

Disco Elysium
Disco Elysiumisn’t exactly a party despite its name.
The game is also a little slow-playing, in that, there’s no combat in the game whatsoever.

The best part is that the choices you make in-game completely determine how your story will unfold.
That makes solving the murder mystery, one highly engaging tale, that can go many ways.
We don’t want to reveal too much, but the action and intensity levels are already high.
Particularly with its cast of lovely, yet horrible, gruesome, and downright disturbing characters.
If you want a story-driven game to raise your hair,Resident Evil Villageis the best bet.
