#WASTELAND 3 XBOX ONE SERIES#

The game is played with a top-down isometric view similar in fashion to Baldur’s Gate or other classic RPG’s. There are some interesting options available that will dictate your play style and character builds, offering up a lot of variety and pretty much guaranteeing that you’ll want to run through Wasteland 3’s storyline more than once. The character creation options are pretty robust, you can customize look, height, gender, but it’s the unique background perk and risk/reward quirk system that’s really fun to play with. At the onset of the game, you’re tasked with picking two pre-made characters or creating brand new custom characters. If you’re not at all familiar with the series, Wasteland 3 is a post-apocalyptic tactical RPG set in the northern area of the United States. As someone who had only dabbled in the first two games well after release, I had little to no trouble understanding the plot or following the action, and don’t foresee that changing as I continue to get deeper into the game.

If you’re not familiar with the prior entries in the Wasteland series, you have little reason to worry, as Wasteland 3 does a really good job of setting up the world, factions, and the overall setting of the series early on.

I’ve spent a bit of time playing the game prior to release, and still have a ways to go before finalizing a review for it, but I’m happy to say that so far it has exceeded expectations. Wasteland 3 from developer InXile Entertainment launched this week on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
