Although you can see more different content on Twitch every day, the truth is that the majority of users come to this platform through video gamesso it makes perfect sense that TwitchCon attendees have been able to play a wide variety of titlesAnd we're not just talking about games that have been available for a while, like Farming Simulatorbut also other titles such as Delta Force: Hawk Ops or Escape From Tarkovwhich will arrive very shortly.
Delta Force: Hawk Ops
He July 18 will be available for PC first version of this title which we were able to play our first games in Rotterdam. For those who don't know this game very well, it is developed by Team Jade and already offered a first look during the Summer Game Fest 2024. It is a tactical shooter in first person free-to-play which will feature several modes, such as Hazard Operation, Havoc Warfare and Black Hawk Down.
We play a mode where after pay to equip ourselves With weapons, safety elements to increase our life and bullets, we fell into a desert area. The objective of the mission was survive until a helicopter rescued us. It is true that the difficulty of bots was very low and so it is difficult to get an idea of what the game will be able to offer in equal matches, but even so other elements such as the scenarios or the movement of our doll can be valued, and the sensations were very positive.

When this game is available to everyone everyone will be able to draw their own conclusions, but for now has earned our attentionso we already warned that something very cool could come out of here.
Escape From Tarkov and Escape From Tarkov: Arena
This is another of the titles that is not yet available, but that will arrive very soon, in theory before the end of this year. If this game stands out for something, it is because try to be as realistic as possibleespecially in the models of weapons and in the landscapes. In fact, it is spoken of as a first person combat simulator with RPG elements within an MMO with narrative development.
Still, our experience was a little different because we tried the Arena versionspecifically a kind of all against all with the most classic operation. After choosing a class, which you could change after each death, the madness began in some games in which The tactical aspect was very presentbeing essential to know how to move around the battlefield without becoming too exposed.

It is true that It seems like a more difficult game than others. shooter to which one may be accustomedfor details such as there being no indicator to know where you are being shot from or to know if you are hitting the enemy with your bullets. However, at least this mode offered a Very satisfying and fast-paced gaming experience.
Stampede: Racing Royale
Stampede: Racing Royale was one of the most fun titles of all of TwitchCon 2024 Europe
A genre as big as that of battle royale may have been the precursor to the next big hit in the world of driving video games. It is true that Stampede is not going to offer the most realistic version of being behind the wheel, but It has many chances of being the most fun.
To succeed in this game we will have to finish first in races of 60 participants. The blows, the braking, the use of objects that we can get in boxes that are lying around the circuit and any other trick will be completely valid as long as it eliminates the competition.
Maybe For the most purists this game seems a little childishbut the reality is that it is fun like few others, and with the friends Companywhether physically or online, gets even better.
Other video games that are already on the market
Although these have probably been the three games that attracted the most people to their locations thanks to being the ones to come, They were not the only ones present. For example, the chess was also present with Chess.comeven if it was in physical version.

We were even able to find a booth Once Humanthe open world survival multiplayer that It will be released next July 9although in this case it was more focused on being able to acquire some merchandising and take home a fun souvenir with some photos like the ones in the publication.
