I think the second half of 2023 (well more like Q4/september) is gonna be amazing for game releases. Games like Payday 3, Cities Skylines 2, Starfield. Any other I missed that you’re excited for?
Pikmin 4 Super Mario Bros. Wonder
SUPER MARIO RPG BABY
Super Mario RPG is the thing that may make me dust off the switch this year after TOTK but I dunno. I wanted it for all these years and now I can"t escape the thought that it’s still kinda creatively bankrupt
And Baldurs Gate 3! And Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty. For those who enjoy various types of RPGs.
And that massive 2.0 update for cyberpunk. Ive been playing recently, tho ive found its still quite buggy, hopefully that update fixes the bugs
I’m scared but eager for PL. Played the main story last summer after all the bug fixes, but I don’t want to wait another 2 years for the game to be in a playable state, also CDPR’s comments lately got me a bit worried
Armored Core 6 and Remnant 2! A lot of games like Hades 2 and Hollow Knight silksong don’t have release dates so… Maybe this year?
Alan Wake 2 and Spider-Man 2
New Assassins Creed, for those who enjoy those kinda games. Which I do. Also maybe XDefiant.
Pretty stoked for xDefiant. Beta was very fun
Sure, but so was the first half.
Mortal Kombat 1
Sadly many games that will not reach PC or at least for a few years. I would love a world where games are released to all current platform on the same day for everyone. More people having access to games is better for customers, devs/studios … but some high ranked apparently thinks blocking access to games if you don’t own their specific plaform is something good and even required to face the concurrence and i think it’s bullshit but it’s just my gamer’s opinion.
I know I’m not adding much with this, but… Yep, it’ll be good.
Can’t forget homeworld 3!
Edit: I was late to the party, hw3 got pushed to 2024. So I’ll change my answer to the expense game, which comes in July.
Also, hard agree on star field, and CS2!
Edit2: armored core 6
I was gutted when HW3 was pushed to next year, I was so looking forward to playing it this summer.
Same, at the time I made the comment I didn’t even realize they had pushed it back. Cut it a little close to release didn’t they?
I’m excited for Like a Dragon Gaiden!
I feel like 2023 needs to be written off for games. Yeah we’re getting Starfield but that’s about all the “AAA” games I feel.
I think this is a lagged effect due to COVID. I think it won’t be until second half of 2024 or 2025 till we start seeing regular AAA game releases again.
Forza Motorsport. Namco’s never making a new Ridge Racer, so that’ll have to do for a while again
This whole year has been amazing for games and second half has way more in store. 2023 def a great year for gaming
