With the approach of the may event, the rumor about the new Xbox will intensify: today we speak of the new console games and especially of Ryse , exclusive title under development at Crytek.

As you will recall if you've been following the game, it is an action game with historical setting that we will see combat in ancient Rome using the Kinect motion controls. At E3 2011 was announced as a game for Xbox 360 and released a its trailer , but by then he knew very little.

According to The Verge, the game was moved to the new Xbox and will be part of the launch line-up, but are not limited to: apparently Microsoft aims on Ryse to make it his new "mega franchise" as they have already been Halo and Gears of War. The game will take advantage of the features of the new Kinect, which according to many rumor will be sold with the console, and seems to have extremely high production values.

The rumors don't stop the title of Microsoft/Crytek: sources of The Verge reveal that the new console will have four exclusive launch. One of these will be the new force, which will present a "Super-realistic graphics", then there will be "a game of zombies" (perhaps the new Alan Wake?) and a title for families set in an island and artistically graphics similar to that of Pixar films.

These four titles are only a small part of the selection of the launch titles for the new Xbox that, again according to The Verge, will have a strong representation in the FPS genre. The site concludes by explaining that Microsoft will also announce several improvements to the Xbox Live service included moving to real currency instead of MS Points for purchasing content.

We remind you that, according to the latest rumor, the new console will be announced at a special event on May 21.
