After a brief hiatus, Game Rant’s Monthly Game Guide is back! This month sees the release of long-awaited installments of several fan favorite series, as well as a few new IPs. The first week of February kicks off with Dead Space 3, which makes a bold step into action-shooter territory, while still attempting to keep its horror roots intact. Following that, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance puts players back into the shoes of Raiden, four years after the events of Metal Gear Solid 4. Crysis 3 also explodes onto the scene, a direct sequel of Crysis 2 that continues Prophet’s storyline.
